This PR adds support for Lucene 10.3.

Notes for the reviewers:

  • The fern/pages/lucene_api directory is generated from sources and can be completely ignored.
  • The majority of the actually interesting changes are in the java/cuvs-lucene/compat directory, which adds version-specific implementations. The way it works: each incompatible change is captured in an abstract base class that is then inherited from in the shared code. For example, KnnFloatVectorQuery introduced incompatible changes in 10.3, so there are now two abstract CompatKnnFloatVectorQuery classes, for 10.2 and 10.3, that take care of the differences, and GPUKnnFloatVectorQuery in the shared code adds all the version-independent logic. This approach is repeated for every incompatible change.
  • java/cuvs-lucene/compat/README.md explains the details.
  • Most of the code changes are mechanical, with a one exceptions: in 10.3, Lucene made KnnFloatVectorQuery collection "optimistic" (OptimisticKnnVectorQuery apache/lucene#14226), which depending on segment sizes, now breaks GPU search with k close to 1024. So all changes around MAX_CAGRA_K are a temporary workaround for that issue to make tests pass.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added support for Lucene 10.3, including accelerated HNSW, binary-quantized, scalar-quantized, and GPU search codecs.
    • Added GPU search handling for large result requests: searches can use brute force when available; otherwise, CAGRA returns up to 1,024 results per segment.
  • Compatibility
    • Codecs from earlier Lucene releases remain available for reading existing indexes but cannot write new segments. Use the current codec factory when writing.
  • Documentation
    • Updated installation guidance, API references, and the Lucene guide with release-specific setup and compatibility details.

The PR adds a Lucene 10.3 module and release-specific codecs. It introduces compatibility adapters for Lucene 10.2 and 10.3, limits writes with older codec generations, updates vector search behavior, and adds cross-module back-compatibility tests and documentation.

Changes: Lucene version support

Layer / File(s) Summary
Lucene module and compatibility wiring
java/cuvs-lucene/pom.xml, java/cuvs-lucene/lucene-10.2/*, java/cuvs-lucene/lucene-10.3/*, java/cuvs-lucene/compat/*
The Maven build now includes the Lucene 10.3 module and selects release-specific compatibility sources. Compatibility adapters handle Lucene 10.2 and 10.3 query, reader, and test APIs.
Codec generations and write behavior
java/cuvs-lucene/src/main/java/com/nvidia/cuvs/lucene/CuVSFilterCodec.java, java/cuvs-lucene/src/main/java/com/nvidia/cuvs/lucene/*Codec.java, java/cuvs-lucene/lucene-10.3/src/since/java/*, java/cuvs-lucene/lucene-10.3/src/main/resources/META-INF/services/*, java/cuvs-lucene/src/test/java/com/nvidia/cuvs/lucene/TestBackCompat.java
The Lucene 10.3 module registers four new codecs. Older codec generations remain readable and reject writes; tests cover codec registration, read-only behavior, and unavailable formats.
Vector query and GPU search behavior
java/cuvs-lucene/src/main/java/com/nvidia/cuvs/lucene/CuVS2510GPUVectorsReader.java, java/cuvs-lucene/src/main/java/com/nvidia/cuvs/lucene/GPUKnnFloatVectorQuery.java, java/cuvs-lucene/compat/knn-*/src/main/java/*, java/cuvs-lucene/src/test/java/com/nvidia/cuvs/lucene/*
The GPU reader and query use the compatibility adapters. CAGRA searches cap results at 1,024 per segment, and larger requests use brute force when that index exists. Tests cover per-segment query behavior and large top-K searches.
Cross-module index compatibility
java/cuvs-lucene/src/test/java/com/nvidia/cuvs/lucene/TestBackCompatIndices.java, java/cuvs-lucene/src/test/resources/backcompat/README.md
Tests now generate and archive indexes for each module, then read and upgrade indexes from earlier Lucene versions when configured.
API generation and release documentation
fern/*, java/cuvs-lucene/README.md, java/cuvs-lucene/MAINTAINING.md, java/cuvs-lucene/compat/README.md
API generation scans Lucene-specific source directories. The documentation describes Lucene 10.3 artifacts and codecs, codec read-only behavior, compatibility variants, and release-maintenance steps.

Priority: Normal

Change: Feature

Merge Risk: Low · up to 3602e

The Lucene 10.3 support looks sound. Before or soon after merge, fix the filtered GPU search fallback for segments that have both index types, so large filtered requests keep using the GPU. Also correct the API reference and the maintenance and user-guide claims.

@fern/pages/lucene_api/lucene-api-com-nvidia-cuvs-lucene-cuvs2510gpuvectorsreader.md:
- Around line 223-226: Update the documentation generator for KnnVectorsReader
search methods so it documents the public search signatures for both Lucene
10.2, which accepts Bits, and Lucene 10.3, which accepts AcceptDocs, instead of
exposing the protected doSearch methods shown on this page.

Review comments at @fern/pages/user_guide/lucene.md:
- Line 146: Update the 1024-hit statement in the GPU search codec description to
limit it specifically to each segment’s CAGRA search path. Clarify that filtered
queries falling back to Lucene’s exact search may return more than 1024 hits per
segment; retain the distinction between the default CAGRA index and the behavior
of GPUKnnFloatVectorQuery.

Review comments at @java/cuvs-lucene/MAINTAINING.md:
- Around line 187-190: Update the cross-module check description in
MAINTAINING.md to state that it requires a supported GPU runtime and JDK 22 or
newer, since testWriteIndicesForLaterReleases skips without GPU support.
Identify that the check covers only the three HNSW codecs and does not cover the
GPU-search codec.

Review comments at
@java/cuvs-lucene/src/main/java/com/nvidia/cuvs/lucene/GPUKnnFloatVectorQuery.java:
- Around line 398-409: Update the `collectorK` cap in the `gpuReader` CAGRA
branch so it applies only when the segment cannot serve `leafK` through its
brute-force index. When brute force is available, preserve `leafK` so
`CuVS2510GPUVectorsReader.doSearch` can select that path; keep the existing
CAGRA limits for segments without brute-force support and preserve the query’s
own `k`.

Document the public search methods.

This page replaces the public search methods with protected doSearch methods. Applications cannot call doSearch, and the page no longer shows that search takes Bits on Lucene 10.2 and AcceptDocs on 10.3. Update the generator to document both public signatures. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

## Searching on the GPU

The GPU search codec, from `CuVSCodecs.gpuSearch`, runs both index build and search on the GPU. Configure it with [`GPUSearchParams`](/api-reference/lucene-api-com-nvidia-cuvs-lucene-gpusearchparams). A stock `KnnFloatVectorQuery` already searches on the GPU against this codec, so existing query code keeps working; [`GPUKnnFloatVectorQuery`](/api-reference/lucene-api-com-nvidia-cuvs-lucene-gpuknnfloatvectorquery) adds control over the CAGRA search parameters and lets cuVS serve all segments in a single request, which is usually faster. This program is the GPU counterpart of the quickstart, with a filter applied to the search:

Limit the 1024-hit statement to the CAGRA search path.

A filtered query can fall back to Lucene’s exact search and return more than 1024 hits from one segment. For example, a filter accepting 1200 vectors with k = 1500 takes that path. State that the limit applies to the per-segment CAGRA search, not every search. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

This builds and tests every module, installs them, and builds the examples. It also checks the upgrade
from every earlier supported release: `TestBackCompatIndices` in each module writes indexes with its
codecs to `target/backcompat`, and reads and upgrades those that the modules for earlier releases wrote
there before it. Nothing needs to be committed for that.

State the limits of the cross-module check.

Without a supported GPU runtime, testWriteIndicesForLaterReleases skips, so the later modules can skip these upgrade checks. The test also writes only the three HNSW codecs, not the GPU-search codec. Require a supported GPU and JDK 22 or newer for this check, and identify which codecs it covers. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Preserve the brute-force path for oversized filtered leaves.

When a filtered GPU leaf has both CAGRA and brute-force indexes and Lucene's leafK exceeds the CAGRA limit, the current cap can reduce collectorK to that limit. CuVS2510GPUVectorsReader.doSearch then selects CAGRA instead of brute force. CompatKnnFloatVectorQuery.approximateSearch discards the short result, so Lucene performs an exact scan.

This affects an oversized filtered leafK, not a query whose own k exceeds 1,024, because Math.max(k, ...) preserves the query's k. Limit the collector only when the segment cannot serve leafK through brute force.

force is available, preserve `leafK` so `CuVS2510GPUVectorsReader.doSearch` can
select that path; keep the existing CAGRA limits for segments without
brute-force support and preserve the query’s own `k`.

After applying the fix, consider running `coderabbit review --agent` for local
review. Visit https://docs.coderabbit.ai/cli?utm_source=ghpr
