    Description

      Requesting the following URL causes Solr to return an HTTP 500 error response:

      http://localhost:8983/solr/films/select?fl=[child%20parentFilter=ge]&q=*:*
      

      The error response seems to be caused by the following uncaught exception:

      java.lang.NullPointerException
      at org.apache.solr.response.transform.ChildDocTransformer.transform(ChildDocTransformer.java:92)
      at org.apache.solr.response.DocsStreamer.next(DocsStreamer.java:103)

      at org.apache.solr.response.JSONWriter.writeResponse(JSONWriter.java:73)
      

      In ChildDocTransformer.transform, we have the following lines:

      final BitSet segParentsBitSet = parentsFilter.getBitSet(leafReaderContext);
      final int segPrevRootId = segRootId==0? -1: segParentsBitSet.prevSetBit(segRootId - 1); // can return -1 and that's okay
      

      But getBitSet can return null if the set of DocIds is empty:

      return docIdSet == DocIdSet.EMPTY ? null : ((BitDocIdSet) docIdSet).bits();
      

      We found this bug using Diffblue Microservices Testing. Find more information on this fuzz testing campaign.
