In #38333 and #38350 we moved away from the `discovery.zen` settings namespace
since these settings have an effect even though Zen Discovery itself is being
phased out. This change aligns the documentation and the names of related
classes and methods with the newly-introduced naming conventions.
We have had various reports of problems caused by the maxRetryTimeout
setting in the low-level REST client. Such setting was initially added
in the attempts to not have requests go through retries if the request
already took longer than the provided timeout.
The implementation was problematic though as such timeout would also
expire in the first request attempt (see #31834), would leave the
request executing after expiration causing memory leaks (see #33342),
and would not take into account the http client internal queuing (see #25951).
Given all these issues, it seems that this custom timeout mechanism
gives little benefits while causing a lot of harm. We should rather rely
on connect and socket timeout exposed by the underlying http client
and accept that a request can overall take longer than the configured
timeout, which is the case even with a single retry anyways.
This commit removes the `maxRetryTimeout` setting and all of its usages.
Elasticsearch has long [supported](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/docs-index_.html#index-versioning) compare and set (a.k.a optimistic concurrency control) operations using internal document versioning. Sadly that approach is flawed and can sometime do the wrong thing. Here's the relevant excerpt from the resiliency status page:
> When a primary has been partitioned away from the cluster there is a short period of time until it detects this. During that time it will continue indexing writes locally, thereby updating document versions. When it tries to replicate the operation, however, it will discover that it is partitioned away. It won’t acknowledge the write and will wait until the partition is resolved to negotiate with the master on how to proceed. The master will decide to either fail any replicas which failed to index the operations on the primary or tell the primary that it has to step down because a new primary has been chosen in the meantime. Since the old primary has already written documents, clients may already have read from the old primary before it shuts itself down. The version numbers of these reads may not be unique if the new primary has already accepted writes for the same document
We recently [introduced](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.x/optimistic-concurrency-control.html) a new sequence number based approach that doesn't suffer from this dirty reads problem.
This commit removes support for internal versioning as a concurrency control mechanism in favor of the sequence number approach.

With this change we no longer support pluggable discovery implementations. No
known implementations of `DiscoveryPlugin` actually override this method, so in
practice this should have no effect on the wider world. However, we were using
this rather extensively in tests to provide the `test-zen` discovery type. We
no longer need a separate discovery type for tests as we no longer need to
customise its behaviour.

This commit enables the use of TLSv1.3 with security by enabling us to
properly map `TLSv1.3` in the supported protocols setting to the
algorithm for a SSLContext. Additionally, we also enable TLSv1.3 by
default on JDKs that support it.
An issue was uncovered with the MockWebServer when TLSv1.3 is used that
ultimately winds up in an endless loop when the client does not trust
the server's certificate. Due to this, SSLConfigurationReloaderTests
has been pinned to TLSv1.2.
Closes#32276
This change forbids negative field boost in the `query_string`, `simple_query_string`
and `multi_match` queries.
Negative boosts are not allowed in Lucene 8 (scores must be positive).
The backport of this change to 6x will turn the error into a deprecation warning
in order to raise the awareness of this breaking change in 7.0.
Closes#33309
In 6.3 trial licenses were changed to default to security
disabled, and ee added some heuristics to detect when security should
be automatically be enabled if `xpack.security.enabled` was not set.
This change removes those heuristics, and requires that security be

trial licenses.

* Add ECS schema for user-agent ingest processor (#37727)
This switches the format of the user agent processor to use the schema from [ECS](https://github.com/elastic/ecs).
So rather than something like this:
```
{
"patch" : "3538",
"major" : "70",
"minor" : "0",

"os_minor" : "14",
"os_major" : "10",
"name" : "Chrome",
"os_name" : "Mac OS X",
"device" : "Other"
}
```
The structure is now like this:
```
{
"name" : "Chrome",
"original" : "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_14_1) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/70.0.3538.102 Safari/537.36",
"os" : {
"name" : "Mac OS X",
"version" : "10.14.1",
"full" : "Mac OS X 10.14.1"
},
"device" : "Other",
"version" : "70.0.3538.102"
}
```
This is now the default for 7.0. The deprecated `ecs` setting in 6.x is not
supported.
Resolves#37329
* Remove `ecs` setting from docs
Doc-value fields now return a value that is based on the mappings rather than
the script implementation by default.
This deprecates the special `use_field_mapping` docvalue format which was added
in #29639 only to ease the transition to 7.x and it is not necessary anymore in
7.0.
Restricted indices (currently only .security-6 and .security) are special
internal indices that require setting the `allow_restricted_indices` flag
on every index permission that covers them. If this flag is `false`
(default) the permission will not cover these and actions against them
will not be authorized.
However, the monitoring APIs were the only exception to this rule.
This exception is herein forfeited and index monitoring privileges have to be
granted explicitly, using the `allow_restricted_indices` flag on the permission,
as is the case for any other index privilege.
In order to support JSON log format, a custom pattern layout was used and its configuration is enclosed in ESJsonLayout. Users are free to use their own patterns, but if smooth Beats integration is needed, they should use ESJsonLayout. EvilLoggerTests are left intact to make sure user's custom log patterns work fine.
To populate additional fields node.id and cluster.uuid which are not available at start time,
a cluster state update will have to be received and the values passed to log4j pattern converter.
A ClusterStateObserver.Listener is used to receive only one ClusteStateUpdate. Once update is received the nodeId and clusterUUid are set in a static field in a NodeAndClusterIdConverter.
Following fields are expected in JSON log lines: type, tiemstamp, level, component, cluster.name, node.name, node.id, cluster.uuid, message, stacktrace
see ESJsonLayout.java for more details and field descriptions
Docker log4j2 configuration is now almost the same as the one use for ES binary.
The only difference is that docker is using console appenders, whereas ES is using file appenders.

This commit changes the default for the `track_total_hits` option of the search request
to `10,000`. This means that by default search requests will accurately track the total hit count
up to `10,000` documents, requests that match more than this value will set the `"total.relation"`
to `"gte"` (e.g. greater than or equals) and the `"total.value"` to `10,000` in the search response.
Scroll queries are not impacted, they will continue to count the total hits accurately.
The default is set back to `true` (accurate hit count) if `rest_total_hits_as_int` is set in the search request.
I choose `10,000` as the default because that's also the number we use to limit pagination. This means that users will be able to know how far they can jump (up to 10,000) even if the total number of hits is not accurate.
Closes#33028
The default value for ssl.supported_protocols no longer includes TLSv1
as this is an old protocol with known security issues.

appropriate `ssl.supported_protocols` setting, for example:
xpack.security.http.ssl.supported_protocols: ["TLSv1.2","TLSv1.1","TLSv1"]

This commit removes the Index Audit Output type, following its deprecation
in 6.7 by 8765a31d4e6770. It also adds the migration notice (settings notice).
In general, the problem with the index audit output is that event indexing
can be slower than the rate with which audit events are generated,
especially during the daily rollovers or the rolling cluster upgrades.
In this situation audit events will be lost which is a terrible failure situation
for an audit system.
Besides of the settings under the `xpack.security.audit.index` namespace, the
`xpack.security.audit.outputs` setting has also been deprecated and will be
removed in 7. Although explicitly configuring the logfile output does not touch
any deprecation bits, this setting is made redundant in 7 so this PR deprecates
it as well.
Relates #29881
Removes all sensitive settings (passwords, auth tokens, urls, etc...) for
watcher notifications accounts. These settings were deprecated (and
herein removed) in favor of their secure sibling that is set inside the
elasticsearch keystore. For example:
`xpack.notification.email.account.<id>.smtp.password`
is no longer a valid setting, and it is replaced by
`xpack.notification.email.account.<id>.smtp.secure_password`
This commit removes the fallback for SSL settings. While this may be
seen as a non user friendly change, the intention behind this change
is to simplify the reasoning needed to understand what is actually
being used for a given SSL configuration. Each configuration now needs
to be explicitly specified as there is no global configuration or
fallback to some other configuration.

With this commit we rename `node.store.allow_mmapfs` to
`node.store.allow_mmap`. Previously this setting has controlled whether
`mmapfs` could be used as a store type. With the introduction of
`hybridfs` which also relies on memory-mapping,
`node.store.allow_mmapfs` also applies to `hybridfs` and thus we rename
it in order to convey that it is actually used to allow memory-mapping
but not a specific store type.

* [Geo] Expose BKDBackedGeoShapes as new VECTOR strategy
This commit exposes lucene's LatLonShape field as a new
strategy in GeoShapeFieldMapper. To use the new indexing
approach, strategy should be set to "vector" in the
geo_shape field mapper. If the tree parameter is set
the mapper will throw an IAE. Note the following:
When using vector strategy:
* geo_shape query does not support querying by POINT,
MULTIPOINT, or GEOMETRYCOLLECTION.
* LINESTRING and MULTILINESTRING queries do not support
WITHIN relation.
* CONTAINS relation is not supported.
* The tree, precision, tree_levels, distance_error_pct,
and points_only parameters will not throw an exception
but they have no effect and will be marked as
deprecated..
All other features are supported.
* revert change to PercolatorFieldMapper
* fix ExistsQuery for geo_shape vector strategy
* add deprecation logging for tree, precision, tree_levels, distance_error_pct, and points_only
* initial update to geoshape docs, including mapping migration updates
* initial support for GeoCollection queries
* fix docs and javadoc errors
* clean up geocollection queries
* set deprecated mapping tests to NOTCONSOLE
* fix geo-shape mapper asciidoc mapping and test warnings

This commit exposes lucene's LatLonShape field as the
default type in GeoShapeFieldMapper. To use the new
indexing approach, simply set "type" : "geo_shape" in
the mappings without setting any of the strategy, precision,
tree_levels, or distance_error_pct parameters. Note the
following when using the new indexing approach:
* geo_shape query does not support querying by
MULTIPOINT.
* LINESTRING and MULTILINESTRING queries do not
yet support WITHIN relation.
* CONTAINS relation is not yet supported.
The tree, precision, tree_levels, distance_error_pct,
and points_only parameters are deprecated.
* Adds deprecation logging to ScriptDocValues#getValues.
First commit addressing issue #22919.
`ScriptDocValues#getValues` was added for backwards compatibility but no
longer needed. Scripts using the syntax `doc['foo'].values` when
`doc['foo']` is a list should be using `doc['foo']` instead.
* Fixes two build errors in #34279
* Removes unused import in ScriptDocValuesDatesTest
* Removes used of `.values` in example in diversified-sampler-aggregation.asciidoc
* Removes use of .values from painless test.
Part of #34279
* Updates tests to use `doc[foo]` syntax rather than `doc[foo].values`.
* Removes use of `getValues()` and replaces use of `doc[foo].values` with `doc[foo]`.
* Indentation fix.
* Remove unnecessary list construction at previous `getValues()` callsite in ScriptDocValues.GeoPoints.
* Update migration doc and add link to `getValue` in ScriptDocValues javadoc.
* Fix compile
* Fix javadoc issue
* Removes ScriptDocValues#getValues usage from painless whitelist.

This commit gets rid of the 'NONE' and 'INFO' severity levels for
deprecation issues.
'NONE' is unused and does not make much sense as a severity level.
'INFO' can be separated into two categories: Either 1) we can
definitively tell there will be a problem with the cluster/node/index
configuration that can be resolved prior to upgrade, in which case
the issue should be a WARNING, or 2) we can't, because any issues would
be at the application level, for which the user should review the
deprecation logs and/or response headers.
In real deployments it is important that clusters are properly configured to
avoid accidentally forming multiple independent clusters at cluster
bootstrapping time. However we also expect to be able to unpack Elasticsearch
and start up one or more nodes without any up-front configuration, and have
them do their best to find each other and form a cluster after a few seconds.
This change adds a delayed automatic bootstrapping process to nodes that start
up with no relevant settings set to support the desired out-of-the-box
experience without compromising safety in properly-configured deployments.
This commit changes the format of the `hits.total` in the search response to be an object with
a `value` and a `relation`. The `value` indicates the number of hits that match the query and the
`relation` indicates whether the number is accurate (in which case the relation is equals to `eq`)
or a lower bound of the total (in which case it is equals to `gte`).
This change also adds a parameter called `rest_total_hits_as_int` that can be used in the
search APIs to opt out from this change (retrieve the total hits as a number in the rest response).
Note that currently all search responses are accurate (`track_total_hits: true`) or they don't contain
`hits.total` (`track_total_hits: true`). We'll add a way to get a lower bound of the total hits in a
follow up (to allow numbers to be passed to `track_total_hits`).

When building a query Lucene distinguishes two cases, queries that require to produce a score and queries that only need to match. We cloned this mechanism in the QueryBuilders in order to be able to produce different queries based on whether they need to produce a score or not. However the only case in es that require this distinction is the BoolQueryBuilder that sets a different minimum_should_match when a `bool` query is built in a filter context..
This behavior doesn't seem right because it makes the matching of `should` clauses different when the score is not required.
