Changes the default of the `node.name` setting to the hostname of the
machine on which Elasticsearch is running. Previously it was the first 8
characters of the node id. This had the advantage of producing a unique
name even when the node name isn't configured but the disadvantage of
being unrecognizable and not being available until fairly late in the
startup process. Of particular interest is that it isn't available until
after logging is configured. This forces us to use a volatile read
whenever we add the node name to the log.
Using the hostname is available immediately on startup and is generally
recognizable but has the disadvantage of not being unique when run on
machines that don't set their hostname or when multiple elasticsearch
processes are run on the same host. I believe that, taken together, it
is better to default to the hostname.
1. Running multiple copies of Elasticsearch on the same node is a fairly
advanced feature. We do it all the as part of the elasticsearch build
for testing but we make sure to set the node name then.
2. That the node.name defaults to some flavor of "localhost" on an
unconfigured box feels like it isn't going to come up too much in
production. I expect most production deployments to at least set the
hostname.
As a bonus, production deployments need no longer set the node name in
most cases. At least in my experience most folks set it to the hostname
anyway.
In #33241 we moved the file-based discovery functionality to core
Elasticsearch, but preserved the `discovery-file` plugin, and support for the
existing location of the `unicast_hosts.txt` file, for BWC reasons. This commit
completes the removal of this plugin.
This change removes the wrapping of the created field in the put user
response. The created field was added as a top level field in #32332,
while also still being wrapped within the `user` object of the
response. Since the value is available in both formats in 6.x, we can
remove the wrapped version for 7.0.
The remote cluster settings search.remote.* have been renamed to
cluster.remote.* and are automatically upgraded in the cluster state on
gateway recovery, and on put. This commit adds a note to the migration
docs for these changes.
This change collapses all metrics aggregations classes into a single package `org.elasticsearch.aggregations.metrics`.
It also restricts the visibility of some classes (aggregators and factories) that should not be used outside of the package.

The main benefit of the upgrade for users is the search optimization for top scored documents when the total hit count is not needed. However this optimization is not activated in this change, there is another issue opened to discuss how it should be integrated smoothly.
Some comments about the change:
* Tests that can produce negative scores have been adapted but we need to forbid them completely: #33309Closes#32899
In #29623 we added `Request` object flavored requests to the low level
REST client and in #30315 we deprecated the old `performRequest`s. In a
long series of PRs I've changed all of the old style requests. This
drops the deprecated methods and will be released with 7.0.
We used to set `maxScore` to `0` within `TopDocs` in situations where there is really no score as the size was set to `0` and scores were not even tracked. In such scenarios, `Float.Nan` is more appropriate, which gets converted to `max_score: null` on the REST layer. That's also more consistent with lucene which set `maxScore` to `Float.Nan` when merging empty `TopDocs` (see `TopDocs#merge`).
Currently, if geo context is represented by something other than
geo_point or an object with lat and lon fields, the parsing of it
as a geo context can result in ignoring the context altogether,
returning confusing errors such as number_format_exception or trying
to parse the number specifying as long-encoded hash code. It would also
fail if the geo_point was stored.
This commit makes the mapping parsing more strict and will fail during
mapping update or index creation if the geo context doesn't point to
a geo_point field.
Supersedes #32412Closes#32202
Resolving wildcards in aliases expression is challenging as we may end
up with no aliases to replace the original expression with, but if we
replace with an empty array that means _all which is quite the opposite.
Now that we support and serialize the original requested aliases,
whenever aliases are replaced we will be able to know what was
initially requested. `MetaData#findAliases` can then be updated to not
return anything in case it gets empty aliases, but the original aliases
were not empty. That means that empty aliases are interpreted as _all
only if they were originally requested that way.
Relates to #31516
Because this is a static method on a public API, and one that we encourage
plugin authors to use, the method with the typo is deprecated in 6.x
rather than just renamed.
With this commit we introduce a new circuit-breaking strategy to the parent
circuit breaker. Contrary to the current implementation which only accounts for
memory reserved via child circuit breakers, the new strategy measures real heap
memory usage at the time of reservation. This allows us to be much more
aggressive with the circuit breaker limit so we bump it to 95% by default. The
new strategy is turned on by default and can be controlled with the new cluster
setting `indices.breaker.total.userealmemory`.
Note that we turn it off for all integration tests with an internal test cluster
because it leads to spurious test failures which are of no value (we cannot
fully control heap memory usage in tests). All REST tests, however, will make
use of the real memory circuit breaker.
Relates #31767
Removes support for storing scripts without the usual json around the
script. So You can no longer do:
```
POST _scripts/<templatename>
{
"query": {
"match": {
"title": "{{query_string}}"
}
}
}
```
and must instead do:
```
POST _scripts/<templatename>
{
"script": {
"lang": "mustache",
"source": {
"query": {
"match": {
"title": "{{query_string}}"
}
}
}
}
}
```
This improves error reporting when you attempt to store a script but don't
quite get the syntax right. Before, there was a good chance that we'd
think of it as a "raw" template and just store it. Now we won't do that.
Nice.
So far the in-flight request circuit breaker has only accounted for the
on-the-wire representation of a request. However, we convert the raw
request into XContent internally which increases the overhead.
Therefore, we increase the value of the corresponding setting
`network.breaker.inflight_requests.overhead` from one to two. While this
value is still rather conservative (we assume that the representation as
structured objects has no overhead compared to the byte[]), it is closer
to reality than the current value.

With #29331 we added support for the cluster health API to the
high-level REST client. The transport client does not support the level
parameter, and it always returns all the info needed for shards level
rendering. We have maintained that behaviour when adding support for
cluster health to the high-level REST client, to ease migration, but the
correct thing to do is to default the high-level REST client to
`cluster` level, which is the same default as when going through the
Elasticsearch REST layer.
This commit removes all the API methods that accept a `Header` varargs
argument, in favour of the newly introduced API methods that accept a
`RequestOptions` argument.

With `max_concurrent_shard_requests` we used to throttle / limit
the number of concurrent shard requests a high level search request
can execute per node. This had several problems since it limited the
number on a global level based on the number of nodes. This change
now throttles the number of concurrent requests per node while still
allowing concurrency across multiple nodes.

Currently failures to compile a script usually lead to a ScriptException, which
inherits the 500 INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR from ElasticsearchException if it does
not contain another root cause. Instead, this should be a 400 Bad Request error.
This PR changes this more generally for script compilation errors by changing
ScriptException to return 400 (bad request) as status code.

corner of the bounding box.

This commit reintroduces 31251c9 and 63a5799. These commits introduced a
memory leak and were reverted. This commit brings those commits back
and fixes the memory leak by removing unnecessary retain method calls.
This reverts commit 31251c9 introduced in #30695.
We suspect this commit is causing the OOME's reported in #30811 and we will use this PR to test this assertion.
This is related to #29500 and #28898. This commit removes the abilitiy
to disable http pipelining. After this commit, any elasticsearch node
will support pipelined requests from a client. Additionally, it extracts
some of the http pipelining work to the server module. This extracted
work is used to implement pipelining for the nio plugin.
The getDate() and getDates() existed prior to 5.x on long fields in
scripting. In 5.x, a new Date type for ScriptDocValues was added. The
getDate() and getDates() methods were left on long fields and added to date
fields to ease the transition. This commit removes those methods for
7.0.
This commit removes the http.enabled setting. While all real nodes (started with bin/elasticsearch) will always have an http binding, there are many tests that rely on the quickness of not actually needing to bind to 2 ports. For this case, the MockHttpTransport.TestPlugin provides a dummy http transport implementation which is used by default in ESIntegTestCase.
closes#12792
Systemd overrides should happen through /etc/systemd/system, not
directly editing the service file. This commit removes marking the
service file as configuration for rpm and deb packages.
Today when an index is created from shrinking or splitting an existing
index, the target index inherits almost none of the source index
settings. This is surprising and a hassle for operators managing such
indices. Given this is the default behavior, we can not simply change
it. Instead, we start by introducing the ability to copy settings. This
flag can be set on the REST API or on the transport layer and it has the
behavior that it copies all settings from the source except non-copyable
settings (a property of a setting introduced in this
change). Additionally, settings on the request will always override.
This change is the first step in our adventure:
- this flag is added here in 7.0.0 and immediately deprecated
- this flag will be backported to 6.4.0 and remain deprecated
- then, we will remove the ability to set this flag to false in 7.0.0
- finally, in 8.0.0 we will remove this flag and the only behavior will
be for settings to be copied
A previous change modified the output of the thread pool info contained
in the nodes info API. This commit adds a note to the migration docs for
this change.
This metric previously existed for backwards compatibility reasons
although the suggest stats were folded into search stats. This metric
was deprecated in 6.3.0 and this commit removes them for 7.0.0.
The name of the bulk thread pool was renamed to "write" with "bulk" as a
fallback name. This change was made in 6.x for BWC reasons yet in 7.0.0
we are removing this fallback. This commit removes this fallback for the
write thread pool.
Now that single-document indexing requests are executed on the bulk
thread pool the index thread pool is no longer needed. This commit
removes this thread pool from Elasticsearch.
CRUD: Parsing changes for UpdateRequest (#29293)
Use `ObjectParser` to parse `UpdateRequest` so we reject unknown fields
and drop support for the `_fields` parameter because it was deprecated
in 5.x.
This change validates that the `_search` request does not have trailing
tokens after the main object and fails the request with a parsing exception otherwise.
Closes#28995
Some features have been deprecated since `6.0` like the `_parent` field or the
ability to have multiple types per index. This allows to remove quite some
code, which in-turn will hopefully make it easier to proceed with the removal

- reject unkwown parameters on 7.x indices and emit a deprecation

that users can get deprecation warnings when they are doing something
that will become unsupported in the future.

it aligns the documentation to be more coherent with the S3 one, it
documents the connect/read timeouts that were not documented at all and
also adds a new client setting that allows to define a custom endpoint.

#27409 deprecated the incorrectly-spelled `levenstein` in favour of `levenshtein`.
#27526 deprecated the inconsistent `jarowinkler` in favour of `jaro_winkler`.
These changes were merged into 6.2, and this change removes them entirely in 7.0.
This commit adds a new dynamic cluster setting named `search.max_buckets` that can be used to limit the number of buckets created per shard or by the reduce phase. Each multi bucket aggregator can consume buckets during the final build of the aggregation at the shard level or during the reduce phase (final or not) in the coordinating node. When an aggregator consumes a bucket, a global count for the request is incremented and if this number is greater than the limit an exception is thrown (TooManyBuckets exception).
This change adds the ability for multi bucket aggregator to "consume" buckets in the global limit, the default is 10,000. It's an opt-in consumer so each multi-bucket aggregator must explicitly call the consumer when a bucket is added in the response.
Closes#27452#26012

Today we refresh automatically in the background by default very second.
This default behavior has a significant impact on indexing performance
if the refreshes are not needed.
This change introduces a notion of a shard being `search idle` which a
shard transitions to after (default) `30s` without any access to an
external searcher. Once a shard is search idle all scheduled refreshes
will be skipped unless there are any refresh listeners registered.
If a search happens on a `serach idle` shard the search request _park_
on a refresh listener and will be executed once the next scheduled refresh
occurs. This will also turn the shard into the `non-idle` state immediately.
This behavior is only applied if there is no explicit refresh interval set.
The `delimited_payload_filter` is renamed to `delimited_payload`, the old name is
deprecated and should be replaced by `delimited_payload`.
Closes#21978
Today we require users to prepare their indices for split operations.
Yet, we can do this automatically when an index is created which would
make the split feature a much more appealing option since it doesn't have
any 3rd party prerequisites anymore.
This change automatically sets the number of routinng shards such that
an index is guaranteed to be able to split once into twice as many shards.
The number of routing shards is scaled towards the default shard limit per index
such that indices with a smaller amount of shards can be split more often than
larger ones. For instance an index with 1 or 2 shards can be split 10x
(until it approaches 1024 shards) while an index created with 128 shards can only
be split 3x by a factor of 2. Please note this is just a default value and users
can still prepare their indices with `index.number_of_routing_shards` for custom
splitting.
NOTE: this change has an impact on the document distribution since we are changing
the hash space. Documents are still uniformly distributed across all shards but since
we are artificually changing the number of buckets in the consistent hashign space
document might be hashed into different shards compared to previous versions.
This is a 7.0 only change.
Add an index level setting `index.mapping.nested_objects.limit` to control
the number of nested json objects that can be in a single document
across all fields. Defaults to 10000.
Throw an error if the number of created nested documents exceed this
limit during the parsing of a document.

Queries that create a scroll context cannot use the cache.
They modify the search context during their execution so using the cache
can lead to duplicate result for the next scroll query.
This change fails the entire request if the request_cache option is explictely set
on a query that creates a scroll context (`scroll=1m`) and make sure internally that we never
use the cache for these queries when the option is not explicitely used.
For 6.x a deprecation log will be printed instead of failing the entire request and the request_cache hint
will be ignored (forced to false).
Today all these API calls have a sideeffect of making documents visible
to search requests. While this is sometimes desired it's an unnecessary sideeffect
and now that we have an internal (engine-private) index reader (#26972) we artificially
add a refresh call for bwc. This change removes this sideeffect in 7.0.
The shard preference _primary, _replica and its variants were useful
for the asynchronous replication. However, with the current impl, they
are no longer useful and should be removed.

We remove azure deprecated settings in 7.0:

This includes `account`, `key`, `default` and `timeout`.
You need to use settings which are starting with `azure.client.` prefix instead.
* Global timeout setting `cloud.azure.storage.timeout` has been removed.
You must set it per azure client instead. Like `azure.client.default.timeout: 10s` for example.
* Remove the _all metadata field
This change removes the `_all` metadata field. This field is deprecated in 6
and cannot be activated for indices created in 6 so it can be safely removed in
the next major version (e.g. 7).
We use `:` for cross-cluster search (eg `cluster:index`), therefore, we should
not allow the ambiguity when allowing cluster or index names.

The environment variable CONF_DIR was previously inconsistently used in
our packaging to customize the location of Elasticsearch configuration
files. The importance of this environment variable has increased
starting in 6.0.0 as it's now used consistently to ensure Elasticsearch

same configuration. The name CONF_DIR is there for legacy reasons yet
it's too generic. This commit renames CONF_DIR to ES_PATH_CONF.
