The explanation given in the completion suggester documentation why we use the
"simple" analyzer as the default is no longer valid. Since we still use "simple"
as the default, we should just delete the explanation that doesn't fit anymore.

This commit is a correction of a doc bug in the docs for the ingest
date-index-name processor. The correct pattern is
yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSXX. This is due to the transition from Joda
time to Java time where Z does not mean the same thing between the two.
Command needs `?v` so user can see the column headers. Otherwise the instructions in the note about checking the init and relo columns don't make sense
This commit fixes a problem with BWC that was brought up in #40511. A
newer version of the code was emitting a new value for an enum to an
older version, and the older version could not handle that. It caused
the response to error. The MainResponse is now relaxed, and will accept
whatever values the server expose, and holds most of them as Strings
instead of complex objects.
Fixes#40511
We generate two pages with "funny" names:
* _changing_the_client_8217_s_initialization_code.html
* _changing_the_application_8217_s_code.html
The leading `_` comes from us not specifying the name of the page. The
`8217` comes about because of the single quote character. This is a
funny name, but it is the name that we have so we shouldn't change it
without putting in a redirect.
We're looking at switching these docs from being built with the
no-longer-maintained AsciiDoc project to being built with the
actively-maintained Asciidoctor project. Asciidoctor Doesn't include the
`8217`s in the generated ids. That is *better*, but we don't really want
to change the pages. Ultimately we'd prefer none of our pages start with
`_`, but that is a problem for a different time.
Anyway, this pins the ids to their "funny" id so it won't change when we
switch to Asciidoctor. We'll remove it later, when we have more fine
control of our redirects.
Drops the inline callouts from the painless reference book. These
callouts are incompatible with Asciidoctor and we'd very much like to
switch to Asciidoctor for building this book, partially because
Asciidoctor is actively developed and AsciiDoc is not, and partially
because it builds the book three times faster.
This change rejects an illegal combination of flush parameters where

This updates the casting table to reflect the recent changes for casting consistency in Painless. This also adds a small section on explicitly casting a character to a String which has always been allowed but undocumented.
There is a single example in the Java API docs that contains an inline
callout that is incompatible with Asciidoctor:
```
client.prepareUpdate("ttl", "doc", "1")
.setScript(new Script(
"ctx._source.gender = \"male\"" <1> , ScriptService.ScriptType.INLINE, null, null))
.get();
```
This rewrites the example to use an Asciidoctor compatible end of line
callout. It also looks nicer to me because it fits better on the page.
```
client.prepareUpdate("ttl", "doc", "1")
.setScript(new Script(
"ctx._source.gender = \"male\"", <1>
ScriptService.ScriptType.INLINE, null, null))

We no longer need to mention soft deletes in the getting started guide

Currently, the docs correctly state that using `now` in range queries will not
be affected by the `time_zone` parameter. However, using date math roundings
like e.g. `now\d` will be affected by the `time_zone`. Adding this example

I have been hitting the suite timeout on `DocsClientYamlTestSuiteIT`
As far as I can see, the docs tests are taking quite a while, I assume

It takes me just a little less than 20 minutes to run these on my
laptop. On my CI, I end up hitting the suite timeout. Hereby I propose
that we increase the suite timeout to 30 minutes.

Adds the search_as_you_type field type that acts like a text field optimized
for as-you-type search completion. It creates a couple subfields that analyze
the indexed terms as shingles, against which full terms are queried, and a
prefix subfield that analyze terms as the largest shingle size used and
edge-ngrams, against which partial terms are queried
Adds a match_bool_prefix query type that creates a boolean clause of a term
query for each term except the last, for which a boolean clause with a prefix
query is created.
The match_bool_prefix query is the recommended way of querying a search as you
type field, which will boil down to term queries for each shingle of the input
text on the appropriate shingle field, and the final (possibly partial) term
as a term query on the prefix field. This field type also supports phrase and
phrase prefix queries however

This commit expands the ccr overview page to include more information
about the lifecycle of following an index. It adds information linking
to the remote recovery documentation. And describes how an index can
fall-behind and how to fix it when this happens.
This is the equivalent of the `field_masking_span` query, allowing users to
merge intervals from multiple fields - for example, to search for stemmed tokens
near unstemmed tokens.
This change adds an option to convert a `date` field to nanoseconds resolution
and a `date_nanos` field to millisecond resolution when sorting.
The resolution of the sort can be set using the `numeric_type` option of the
field sort builder. The conversion is done at the shard level and is restricted
to dates from 1970 to 2262 for the nanoseconds resolution in order to avoid
numeric overflow.
The new cluster coordination subsystem introduced in 7.0 will only keep an
unresponsive node in the cluster for 30 seconds, whereas in earlier versions it
might have remained in the cluster for 90 seconds. This commit adds a note to
the migration documentation to that effect.
This commit clarifies how the gateway selection works when configuring
remote clusters for CCR or CCS. Specifically, it clarifies compatibility
between different versions which is a very common question.
The Migration Assistance API has been functionally replaced by the
Deprecation Info API, and the Migration Upgrade API is not used for the
transition from ES 6.x to 7.x, and does not need to be kept around to
repair indices that were not properly upgraded before upgrading the
cluster, as was the case in 6.
For cases where fields can have multi values, allow the behavior to be
customized through a dedicated configuration field.
By default this will be enabled on the drivers so that existing datasets
work instead of throwing an exception.
For regular SQL usage, the behavior is false so that the user is aware
of the underlying data.

This change adds an option to the `FieldSortBuilder` that allows to transform the type
of a numeric field into another. Possible values for this option are `long` that transforms
the source field into an integer and `double` that transforms the source field into a floating point.
This new option is useful for cross-index search when the sort field is mapped differently on some
indices. For instance if a field is mapped as a floating point in one index and as an integer in another
it is possible to align the type for both indices using the `numeric_type` option:
```
{
"sort": {
"field": "my_field",
"numeric_type": "double" <1>
}
}
```
<1> Ensure that values for this field are transformed to a floating point if needed.
Currently if a field alias is updated, any percolator queries that contain the

We were missing release notes for 7.0.0-alpha1. I generated them by running

Some breaking changes had been documented in the release notes rather than
the migration guide so I moved them.
Prior to this commit (and after 6.5.0), if an ingest node changes
the _index in a pipeline, the original target index would be created.
For daily indexes this could create an extra, empty index per day.
This commit changes the TransportBulkAction to execute the ingest node
pipeline before attempting to create the index. This ensures that the
only index created is the original or one set by the ingest node pipeline.
This was the execution order prior to 6.5.0 (#32786).
The execution order was changed in 6.5 to better support default pipelines.
Specifically the execution order was changed to be able to read the settings
from the index meta data. This commit also includes a change in logic such
that if the target index does not exist when ingest node pipeline runs, it
will now pull the default pipeline (if one exists) from the settings of the
best matched of the index template.

This commit introduces the forget follower API. This API is needed in cases that
unfollowing a following index fails to remove the shard history retention leases
on the leader index. This can happen explicitly through user action, or
implicitly through an index managed by ILM. When this occurs, history will be
retained longer than necessary. While the retention lease will eventually
expire, it can be expensive to allow history to persist for that long, and also
prevent ILM from performing actions like shrink on the leader index. As such, we
introduce an API to allow for manual removal of the shard history retention
leases in this case.
This change does the following:
1. Makes the per-node setting xpack.ml.max_open_jobs
into a cluster-wide dynamic setting
2. Changes the job node selection to continue to use the
per-node attributes storing the maximum number of open
jobs if any node in the cluster is older than 7.1, and
use the dynamic cluster-wide setting if all nodes are on
7.1 or later
3. Changes the docs to reflect this
4. Changes the thread pools for native process communication
from fixed size to scaling, to support the dynamic nature
of xpack.ml.max_open_jobs
5. Renames the autodetect thread pool to the job comms
thread pool to make clear that it will be used for other
types of ML jobs (data frame analytics in particular)

Rollup jobs should be stopped + deleted before the indices are removed.
It's possible for an active rollup job to issue a bulk request, the test
ends and the cleanup code deletes all indices. The in-flight bulk
request will then stall + error because the index no-longer exists...
but this process might take longer than the StopRollup timeout.
Which means the test fails, and often fails several other tests since
the job is still active (e.g. other tests cannot create the same-named
job, or fail to stop the job in their cleanup because it's still stalled).
This tends to knock over several tests before the bulk finally times
out and the job shuts down.
Instead, we need to simply stop jobs first. Inflight bulks will resolve
quickly, and we can carry on with deleting indices after the jobs are
confirmed inactive.
stop-job.asciidoc tended to trigger this issue because it executed
an async stop API and then exited, which setup the above situation. In
can and did happen with other tests though. As an extra precaution,
the doc test was modified to substitute in wait_for_completion
to help head off these issues too.
This defaults to "true" (current behavior) and will throw an exception
if there is a property that cannot be recognized. If "false", it will
ignore anything unrecognizable.

`SearchShardIterator` inherits its `compareTo` implementation from `PlainShardIterator`. That is good in most of the cases, as such comparisons are based on the shard id which is unique, even when searching against indices with same names across multiple clusters (thanks to the index uuid being different). In case though the same cluster is registered multiple times with different aliases, the shard id is exactly the same, hence remote results will be returned before local ones with same shard id objects. That is because remote iterators are added before local ones, and we use a stable sorting method in `GroupShardIterators` constructor.
This PR enhances `compareTo` for `SearchShardIterator` to tie break on cluster alias and introduces consistent `equals` and `hashcode` methods. This allows to remove a TODO in `SearchResponseMerger` which otherwise has to handle this special case specifically. Also, while at it I added missing tests around equals/hashcode and compareTo and expanded existing ones.
the get-ml-info API documentation tested that the
response show that ML's `upgrade_mode` was false.
For reasons that may be true due to other tests running in
parallel or not cleaning themselves up, this may not be
guaranteed. Since the actual value here is not of importance,
this commit relaxes the requirement that upgrade_mode be
static.

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.

`CreateIndexRequest#source(Map<String, Object>, ... )`, which is used when
deserializing index creation requests, accidentally accepts mappings that are
nested twice under the type key (as described in the bug report #38266).
This in turn causes us to be too lenient in parsing typeless mappings. In
particular, we accept the following index creation request, even though it
should not contain the type key `_doc`:
```
PUT index?include_type_name=false
{
"mappings": {
"_doc": {
"properties": { ... }
}
}
}
```
There is a similar issue for both 'put templates' and 'put mappings' requests
as well.
This PR makes the minimal changes to detect and reject these typed mappings in
requests. It does not address #38266 generally, or attempt a larger refactor
around types in these server-side requests, as I think this should be done at a
later time.
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.

Renames the following settings to remove the mention of `zen` in their names:
- `discovery.zen.hosts_provider` -> `discovery.seed_providers`
- `discovery.zen.ping.unicast.concurrent_connects` -> `discovery.seed_resolver.max_concurrent_resolvers`
- `discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts.resolve_timeout` -> `discovery.seed_resolver.timeout`
- `discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts` -> `discovery.seed_addresses`
X-Pack security supports built-in authentication service
`token-service` that allows access tokens to be used to
access Elasticsearch without using Basic authentication.
The tokens are generated by `token-service` based on
OAuth2 spec. The access token is a short-lived token
(defaults to 20m) and refresh token with a lifetime of 24 hours,
making them unsuitable for long-lived or recurring tasks where
the system might go offline thereby failing refresh of tokens.
This commit introduces a built-in authentication service
`api-key-service` that adds support for long-lived tokens aka API
keys to access Elasticsearch. The `api-key-service` is consulted
after `token-service` in the authentication chain. By default,
if TLS is enabled then `api-key-service` is also enabled.
The service can be disabled using the configuration setting.
The API keys:-
- by default do not have an expiration but expiration can be
configured where the API keys need to be expired after a
certain amount of time.
- when generated will keep authentication information of the user that
generated them.
- can be defined with a role describing the privileges for accessing
Elasticsearch and will be limited by the role of the user that
generated them
- can be invalidated via invalidation API
- information can be retrieved via a get API
- that have been expired or invalidated will be retained for 1 week
before being deleted. The expired API keys remover task handles this.
Following are the API key management APIs:-
1. Create API Key - `PUT/POST /_security/api_key`
2. Get API key(s) - `GET /_security/api_key`
3. Invalidate API Key(s) `DELETE /_security/api_key`
The API keys can be used to access Elasticsearch using `Authorization`
header, where the auth scheme is `ApiKey` and the credentials, is the
base64 encoding of API key Id and API key separated by a colon.
Example:-
```
curl -H "Authorization: ApiKey YXBpLWtleS1pZDphcGkta2V5" http://localhost:9200/_cluster/health
```
Closes#34383
As mapping types are being removed throughout Elasticsearch, the use of
`_type` in pipeline simulation requests is deprecated. Additionally, the
default `_type` used if one is not supplied has been changed to `_doc` for
consistency with the rest of Elasticsearch.
Coalesces two calls into one in a scroll example so all callouts are at
the end of the line. This is the only sort of callouts that are
supported by asciidoctor and we'd like to start building our docs with
asciidoctor.
At present we don't have any mechanism to stop folks adding more inline
callouts but we ought to be able to have one in a few weeks. For now,
though, removing these inline callouts is a step in the right direction.

Reduces the leader and follower check timeout to 3 * 10 = 30s instead of 3 * 30 = 90s, with 30s still
being a very long time for a node to be completely unresponsive.
This adds a dedicated field mapper that supports nanosecond resolution -
at the price of a reduced date range.
When using the date field mapper, the time is stored as milliseconds since the epoch
in a long in lucene. This field mapper stores the time in nanoseconds
since the epoch - which means its range is much smaller, ranging roughly from
1970 to 2262.
Note that aggregations will still be in milliseconds.
However docvalue fields will have full nanosecond resolution

Introduce client-side sorting of groups based on aggregate
functions. To allow this, the Analyzer has been extended to push down
to underlying Aggregate, aggregate function and the Querier has been
extended to identify the case and consume the results in order and sort
them based on the given columns.
The underlying QueryContainer has been slightly modified to allow a view
of the underlying values being extracted as the columns used for sorting
might not be requested by the user.
The PR also adds minor tweaks, mainly related to tree output.

Because concurrent sync requests from a primary to its replicas could be
in flight, it can be the case that an older retention leases collection
arrives and is processed on the replica after a newer retention leases
collection has arrived and been processed. Without a defense, in this
case the replica would overwrite the newer retention leases with the
older retention leases. This commit addresses this issue by introducing
a versioning scheme to retention leases. This versioning scheme is used
to resolve out-of-order processing on the replica. We persist this
version into Lucene and restore it on recovery. The encoding of
retention leases is starting to get a little ugly. We can consider
addressing this in a follow-up.
