Alessandro Benedetti commented on SOLR-16858:
---------------------------------------------
I read everything and I agree with you.
I think it makes sense to have a local parameter (which we can call 'preFilter'
maybe?) and leave FQs to behave as they were with no slurping.
This means that every FQ will behave as a post-filter for the KNN world, but
effectively from a Solr standpoint, they will behave as usual.
This is a breaking change, so we'll have to clarify as a warning somewhere as
users will see a drastic difference (people using FQ as pre-filters will have
to switch to the local parameter instead (but I think it's fair).
In terms of the 'postFiltering bug', once we add the local param, and remove
the slurping, is any bug left?

> The KnnQParser is parsing the filter query which limits the rows considered
> by the vector query with the following method:
> {code:java}
> private Query getFilterQuery() throws SolrException, SyntaxError {
> boolean isSubQuery = recurseCount != 0;
> if (!isFilter() && !isSubQuery) {
> String[] filterQueries = req.getParams().getParams(CommonParams.FQ);
> if (filterQueries != null && filterQueries.length != 0) {
> try {
> List<Query> filters = QueryUtils.parseFilterQueries(req);
> SolrIndexSearcher.ProcessedFilter processedFilter =
> req.getSearcher().getProcessedFilter(filters);
> return processedFilter.filter;
> } catch (IOException e) {
> throw new SolrException(SolrException.ErrorCode.SERVER_ERROR, e);
> }
> }
> }
> return null;
> }
> {code}
> This is pulling all filter queries from the main query parameters and using
> them to limit the vector query. This is the automatic behavior of the
> KnnQParser.
> There are cases where you may want to selectively apply different filters.
> One such case is SOLR-16857 which involves reRanking a collapsed query.
> Overriding the default filter behavior could be done by adding an "fq" local
> parameter to the KnnQParser which would override the default filtering
> behavior.
> {code:java}
> {!knn f=vector topK=10 fq=$kfq}[...]&kfq=myquery
