* Previously, we mentioned multiple times that each nested object was indexed as its own document. This is repetitive, and is also a bit confusing in the context of `index.mapping.nested_fields.limit`, as that applies to the number of distinct `nested` types in the mappings, not the number of nested objects. We now just describe the issue once at the beginning of the section, to illustrate why `nested` types can be expensive.
* Reference the ongoing example to clarify the meaning of the two settings.
Addresses #28363.
Since the max_score optimization landed in Elasticsearch 7,
the CommonTermsQuery is redundant and slower. Moreover the
cutoff_frequency parameter for MatchQuery and MultiMatchQuery
is redundant.

Both of these classes are basically a bloated wrapper around a simple
construct that can simply be a DirectoryFactory interface. This change
removes both classes and replaces them with a simple stateless interface
that creates a new `Directory` per shard. The concept of `index.store` is preserved
since it makes sense from a configuration perspective.
This change contains a major refactoring of the timestamp
format determination code used by the ML find file structure
endpoint.
Previously timestamp format determination was done separately
for each piece of text supplied to the timestamp format finder.
This had the drawback that it was not possible to distinguish
dd/MM and MM/dd in the case where both numbers were 12 or less.
In order to do this sensibly it is best to look across all the
available timestamps and see if one of the numbers is greater
than 12 in any of them. This necessitates making the timestamp
format finder an instantiable class that can accumulate evidence
over time.
Another problem with the previous approach was that it was only
possible to override the timestamp format to one of a limited
set of timestamp formats. There was no way out if a file to be
analysed had a timestamp that was sane yet not in the supported
set. This is now changed to allow any timestamp format that can
be parsed by a combination of these Java date/time formats:
yy, yyyy, M, MM, MMM, MMMM, d, dd, EEE, EEEE, H, HH, h, mm, ss,
a, XX, XXX, zzz
Additionally S letter groups (fractional seconds) are supported
providing they occur after ss and separated from the ss by a dot,
comma or colon. Spacing and punctuation is also permitted with
the exception of the question mark, newline and carriage return
characters, together with literal text enclosed in single quotes.
The full list of changes/improvements in this refactor is:
- Make TimestampFormatFinder an instantiable class
- Overrides must be specified in Java date/time format - Joda
format is no longer accepted
- Joda timestamp formats in outputs are now derived from the
determined or overridden Java timestamp formats, not stored
separately
- Functionality for determining the "best" timestamp format in
a set of lines has been moved from TextLogFileStructureFinder
to TimestampFormatFinder, taking advantage of the fact that
TimestampFormatFinder is now an instantiable class with state
- The functionality to quickly rule out some possible Grok
patterns when looking for timestamp formats has been changed
from using simple regular expressions to the much faster
approach of using the Shift-And method of sub-string search,
but using an "alphabet" consisting of just 1 (representing any
digit) and 0 (representing non-digits)
- Timestamp format overrides are now much more flexible
- Timestamp format overrides that do not correspond to a built-in
Grok pattern are mapped to a %{CUSTOM_TIMESTAMP} Grok pattern
whose definition is included within the date processor in the
ingest pipeline
- Grok patterns that correspond to multiple Java date/time
patterns are now handled better - the Grok pattern is accepted
as matching broadly, and the required set of Java date/time
patterns is built up considering all observed samples
- As a result of the more flexible acceptance of Grok patterns,
when looking for the "best" timestamp in a set of lines
timestamps are considered different if they are preceded by
a different sequence of punctuation characters (to prevent
timestamps far into some lines being considered similar to
timestamps near the beginning of other lines)
- Out-of-the-box Grok patterns that are considered now include
%{DATE} and %{DATESTAMP}, which have indeterminate day/month
ordering
- The order of day/month in formats with indeterminate day/month
order is determined by considering all observed samples (plus
the server locale if the observed samples still do not suggest
an ordering)

As a follow-up to #38540 we can use lambda functions and method
references where convenient in the low-level REST client.
Also, we need to update the docs to state that the minimum java version
required is 1.8.
This commit reworks and clarifies the docs for the `discovery-ec2` plugin:
- folds the tiny "Getting started with AWS" into the page on configuration
- spells out the name of each setting in full instead of noting the
`discovery.ec2` prefix at the top of the page.
- replaces each `(Secure)` marker with a sentence describing what that means in
situ
- notes some missing defaults
- clarifies the behaviour of `discovery.ec2.groups` (dependent on `.any_group`)
- clarifies what `discovery.ec2.host_type` is for
- adds `discovery.ec2.tag.TAGNAME` as a (meta-)setting rather than describing
it in a separate section
- notes that the tags mentioned in `discovery.ec2.tag.TAGNAME` cannot contain
colons (see #38406)
- clarifies the EC2-specific interface names and what they're for
- reorders and rewords the recommendations for storage
- expands on why you should not span a cluster across regions
- adds a suggestion on protecting instances against termination during scale-in
- reformat to 80 columns where possible
Fixes#38406
Downgrading an Elasticsearch node to an earlier version is unsupported, because
we do not make any attempt to guarantee that a node can read any of the on-disk
data written by a future version. Yet today we do not actively prevent
downgrades, and sometimes users will attempt to roll back a failed upgrade with
an in-place downgrade and get into an unrecoverable state.
This change adds the current version of the node to the node metadata file, and
checks the version found in this file against the current version at startup.
If the node cannot be sure of its ability to read the on-disk data then it
refuses to start, preserving any on-disk data in its upgraded state.
This change also adds a command-line tool to overwrite the node metadata file
without performing any version checks, to unsafely bypass these checks and
recover the historical and lenient behaviour.
The date_histogram accepts an interval which can be either a calendar
interval (DST-aware, leap seconds, arbitrary length of months, etc) or
fixed interval (strict multiples of SI units). Unfortunately this is inferred
by first trying to parse as a calendar interval, then falling back to fixed
if that fails.
This leads to confusing arrangement where `1d` == calendar, but
`2d` == fixed. And if you want a day of fixed time, you have to
specify `24h` (e.g. the next smallest unit). This arrangement is very
error-prone for users.
This PR adds `calendar_interval` and `fixed_interval` parameters to any
code that uses intervals (date_histogram, rollup, composite, datafeed, etc).
Calendar only accepts calendar intervals, fixed accepts any combination of
units (meaning `1d` can be used to specify `24h` in fixed time), and both
are mutually exclusive.
The old interval behavior is deprecated and will throw a deprecation warning.
It is also mutually exclusive with the two new parameters. In the future the
old dual-purpose interval will be removed.
The change applies to both REST and java clients.
This commit updates the default ciphers and TLS protocols that are used
when the runtime JDK supports them. New cipher support has been
introduced in JDK 11 and 12 along with performance fixes for AES GCM.
The ciphers are ordered with PFS ciphers being most preferred, then
AEAD ciphers, and finally those with mainstream hardware support. When
available stronger encryption is preferred for a given cipher.
This is a backport of #41385 and #41808. There are known JDK bugs with
TLSv1.3 that have been fixed in various versions. These are:
1. The JDK's bundled HttpsServer will endless loop under JDK11 and JDK
12.0 (Fixed in 12.0.1) based on the way the Apache HttpClient performs
a close (half close).
2. In all versions of JDK 11 and 12, the HttpsServer will endless loop
when certificates are not trusted or another handshake error occurs. An
email has been sent to the openjdk security-dev list and #38646 is open
to track this.
3. In JDK 11.0.2 and prior there is a race condition with session
resumption that leads to handshake errors when multiple concurrent
handshakes are going on between the same client and server. This bug
does not appear when client authentication is in use. This is
JDK-8213202, which was fixed in 11.0.3 and 12.0.
4. In JDK 11.0.2 and prior there is a bug where resumed TLS sessions do
not retain peer certificate information. This is JDK-8212885.
The way these issues are addressed is that the current java version is
checked and used to determine the supported protocols for tests that
provoke these issues.
Adds a note that restarting half-or-more of the master-eligible nodes means
you're no longer doing a rolling upgrade, and may need to upgrade all the
things before the cluster returns to health.
Configurations are stored in the .data-frame-internal-1
index, but users should not add configurations directly to
the index as additional information to enable access control
is added. This adds a warning against allowing access to the
internal index.
The migrate tool was added when the native realm was created, to aid
users in converting from file realms that were per node, into the
cluster managed native realm. While this tool was useful at the time,
users should now be using the native realm directly. This commit
deprecates the tool, to be removed in a followup for 8.0.
Adds an initial limited implementations of geo features to SQL. This implementation is based on the [OpenGIS® Implementation Standard for Geographic information - Simple feature access](http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/sfs), which is the current standard for GIS system implementation. This effort is concentrate on SQL option AKA ISO 19125-2.
Queries that are supported as a result of this initial implementation
Metadata commands
- `DESCRIBE table` - returns the correct column types `GEOMETRY` for geo shapes and geo points.
- `SHOW FUNCTIONS` - returns a list that includes supported `ST_` functions
- `SYS TYPES` and `SYS COLUMNS` display correct types `GEO_SHAPE` and `GEO_POINT` for geo shapes and geo points accordingly.
Returning geoshapes and geopoints from elasticsearch
- `SELECT geom FROM table` - returns the geoshapes and geo_points as libs/geo objects in JDBC or as WKT strings in console.
- `SELECT ST_AsWKT(geom) FROM table;` and `SELECT ST_AsText(geom) FROM table;`- returns the geoshapes ang geopoints in their WKT representation;
Using geopoints to elasticsearch
- The following functions will be supported for geopoints in queries, sorting and aggregations: `ST_GeomFromText`, `ST_X`, `ST_Y`, `ST_Z`, `ST_GeometryType`, and `ST_Distance`. In most cases when used in queries, sorting and aggregations, these function are translated into script. These functions can be used in the SELECT clause for both geopoints and geoshapes.
- `SELECT * FROM table WHERE ST_Distance(ST_GeomFromText(POINT(1 2), point) < 10;` - returns all records for which `point` is located within 10m from the `POINT(1 2)`. In this case the WHERE clause is translated into a range query.
Limitations:
Geoshapes cannot be used in queries, sorting and aggregations as part of this initial effort. In order to fully take advantage of geoshapes we would need to have access to geoshape doc values, which is coming in #37206. `ST_Z` cannot be used on geopoints in queries, sorting and aggregations since we don't store altitude in geo_point doc values.

This commit slightly reworks the recommendations in the docs about setting the
heap size:
* the "rules of thumb" are actually instructions that should be followed
* the reason for setting `Xmx` to 50% of the heap size is more subtle than just
leaving space for the filesystem cache
* it is normal to see Elasticsearch using more memory than `Xmx`
* replace `cutoff` and `limit` with `threshold` since all three terms are used
interchangeably
* since we recommend setting `Xmx` equal to `Xms`, avoid talking about setting
`Xmx` in isolation

This processor uses the lucene HTMLStripCharFilter class to remove HTML
entities from a field. This adds to the char filter, so that there is
possibility to store the stripped version as well.
Note, that the characeter filter replaces tags with a newline, so that
the produced HTML will look slightly different than the incoming HTML
with regards to newlines.
The `bulk` threadpool is now called `write`, but `bulk` is still
used in some examples. This commit fixes that.
Also, the only way `threadpool.bulk.write: 30` is a valid increase in the size
of this threadpool is if you have 29 processors, which is an odd number of
processors to have. This commit removes the "more threads" bit.
In cases where node names and transport addresses can be muddled, it is unclear
that `cluster.initial_master_nodes: master-a:9300` means to look for a node
called `master-a:9300` rather than a node called `master-a` with transport port
`9300`. This commit adds docs to that effect.
Today Elasticsearch accepts, but silently ignores, port ranges in the
`discovery.seed_hosts` setting:
```
discovery.seed_hosts: 10.1.2.3:9300-9400
```
Silently ignoring part of a setting like this is trappy. With this change we
reject seed host addresses of this form.

The CircuitBreaker was introduced as means of preventing a
`StackOverflowException` during the build of the AST by the parser.
The ANTLR4 grammar causes a weird behaviour for a Parser Listener.
The `enterEveryRule()` method is often called with a different parsing
context than the respective `exitEveryRule()`. This makes it difficult
to keep track of the tree's depth, and a custom Map was used as an
attempt of matching the contextes as they are encounter during `enter`
and during `exit` of the rules.
This approach had 2 important drawbacks:
1. It's hard to maintain this custom Map as the grammar changes.
2. The CircuitBreaker could often lead to false positives which caused
valid queries to return an Exception and prevent them from executing.
So, this removes completely the CircuitBreaker which is replaced be
a simple handling of the `StackOverflowException`

The `path_match` and `path_unmatch` parameters in dynamic templates match on
object fields in addition to leaf fields. This is not obvious and can cause
surprising errors when a template is meant for a leaf field, but there are
object fields that match. This PR adds a note to the docs to describe the

*types in requests is deprecated*, but we are supposed to still mention *_doc*
in write requests?

`_doc` now represents the endpoint name, as opposed to a type.

As negative scores will now cause an error, and it is easy to
accidentally produce negative scores with some of the built-in modifiers

Also corrects some awkward formatting on the note sections following the

Today's `docker-compose` docs are missing the `discovery.seed_nodes` config on
one of the nodes. With today's configuration the cluster can still form the
first time it is started, because `cluster.initial_master_nodes` requires both

However if `es02` is elected master it will remove `es01` from the voting
configuration and then when restarted it will form a cluster on its own without
needing to do any discovery. Meanwhile `es01` doesn't know how to find `es02`
after a restart so will be unable to join this cluster.

Today the `_field_caps` API returns the list of indices where a field
is present only if this field has different types within the requested indices.
However if the request is an index pattern (or an alias, or both...) there
is no way to infer the indices if the response contains only fields that have
the same type in all indices. This commit changes the response to always return
the list of indices in the response. It also adds a way to retrieve unmapped field
in a specific section per field called `unmapped`. This section is created for each field
that is present in some indices but not all if the parameter `include_unmapped` is set to
true in the request (defaults to false).
We link to these migraiton docs but we don't specify the id. This

This adds a gradle task called generateContextDoc in the Painless module. The

along with a page per package with each classes' constructors, methods, and
fields. A link is generated for each constructor, method, and field to a JavaDoc
page when possible.

Fix a deprecation warning that wasn't rendering correctly in

This section should be at the same sub-level as other sections in the

Fixes rendering the `version_qualified` attribute in the docs. This
attribute includes `-SNAPSHOT` but does not include `-alpha` or `-beta`

the floor rather than render it so the output looks bad.
This helps avoid memory issues when computing deep sub-aggregations. Because it

This commit is a correction of a doc bug in the docs for the ingest

This commit fixes a problem with BWC that was brought up in #40511. A

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
