Today we try to pull stats from index writer but we do not get a
consistent view of stats. Under heavy indexing, this inconsistency can
be very skewed indeed. In particular, it can lead to the number of
deleted docs being reported as negative and this leads to serialization
issues. Instead, we should provide a consistent view of the stats by
using an index reader.

Today we only expose `value_type` in scriptable aggregations, however it is
also useful with unmapped fields. I suspect we never noticed because
`value_type` was not documented (fixed) and most aggregations are scriptable.
Closes#20163
* Repeated language analyzers
The `catalan` analyzer was repeated on the supported list :)
* Reordered the languages to have alphabetic order
* Added space for format
* Reordered the languages and removed repeated
Added a new section detailing how to use the attachment processor
within an array.
This reverts commit #22296 and instead links to the foreach processor.
Our `float`/`double` fields generally assume that `-0` compares less than `+0`,
except when bounds are exclusive: an exclusive lower bound on `-0` excludes
`+0` and an exclusive upper bound on `+0` excludes `-0`.
Closes#22167
With this commit we enable the Jackson feature 'STRICT_DUPLICATE_DETECTION'
by default for all XContent types (not only JSON).
We have also changed the name of the system property to disable this feature
from `es.json.strict_duplicate_detection` to the now more appropriate name
`es.xcontent.strict_duplicate_detection`.

With this commit we change the data type of the 'TIMESTAMP'
meta-data field from a formatted date string to a plain
`java.util.Date` instance. The main reason for this change is
that our benchmarks have indicated that this contributes
significantly to the time spent in the ingest pipeline.
The overhead in terms of indexing throughput of the ingest
pipeline is about 15% and breaks down roughly as follows:
* 5% overhead caused by the conversion from `XContent` -> `Map`
* 5% overhead caused by the timestamp formatting
* 5% overhead caused by the conversion `Map` -> `XContent`

We try to install a system call filter on various operating systems
(Linux, macOS, BSD, Solaris, and Windows) but the setting
(bootstrap.seccomp) to control this is named after the Linux
implementation (seccomp). This commit replaces this setting with
bootstrap.system_call_filter. For backwards compatibility reasons, we
fallback to bootstrap.seccomp and log a deprecation message if
bootstrap.seccomp is set. We intend to remove this fallback in
6.0.0. Note that now is the time to make this change it's likely that
most users are not making this setting anyway as prior to version 5.2.0
(currently unreleased) it was not necessary to configure anything to
enable a node to start up if the system call filter failed to install
(we marched on anyway) but starting in 5.2.0 it will be necessary in
this case.

The JSON processor has an optional field called "target_field".
If you don't specify target_field then target_field becomes what you specified as "field".
There isn't anyway to add the fields to the root of a document. By
setting `add_to_root`, now serialized fields will be inserted into the
top-level fields of the ingest document.
Closes#21898.
This commit fixes a silly doc bug where the field that represents the
total CPU time consumed by all tasks in the same cgroup was mistakenly
reported as "usage" instead of "usage_nanos".

Sends the `error_trace` parameter with all requests sent by the
yaml test framework, including the doc snippet tests. This can be
overridden by settings `error_trace: false`. While this drift's
core's handling of the yaml tests from the client's slightly this
should only be a problem for tests that rely on the default value,
both of which I've fixed by setting the value explicitly.
This also escapes `\n` and `\t` in the `Stash dump on failure` so
the `stack_trace` is more readable.
Also fixes `RestUpdateSettingsAction` to not think of the `error_trace`
parameter as a setting.
* Replace _suggest endpoint to _search in docs
In 5.0, the _suggest endpoint is just sugar for _search
with suggestions specified. Users should move away from
using the _suggest endpoint, as it is marked as deprecated in 5.x and
will be removed in 6.0
* update docs to use _search endpoint instead of _suggest
* Add deprecation logging to RestSuggestAction
* Use search endpoint instead of suggest endpoint in rest tests
With this commit we enable the Jackson feature 'STRICT_DUPLICATE_DETECTION'
by default. This ensures that JSON keys are always unique. While this has
a performance impact, benchmarking has indicated that the typical drop in
indexing throughput is around 1 - 2%.
As a last resort, we allow users to still disable strict duplicate checks
by setting `-Des.json.strict_duplicate_detection=false` which is
intentionally undocumented.
Closes#19614
When using dynamic templates, ES will now throw an exception if a
`match_mapping_type` is used that doesn't correspond to an actual type.

Our query DSL supports empty queries (`{}`), which have a different meaning depending on the query that holds it, either ignored, match_all or match_none. We deprecated the support for empty queries in 5.0, where we log a deprecation warning wherever they are used.
The way we supported it once we moved query parsing to the coordinating node was having an Optional<QueryBuilder> return type in all of our parse methods (called fromXContent). See #17624. The central place for this was QueryParseContext#parseInnerQueryBuilder. We can now remove all the optional return types and simply throw an exception whenever an empty query is found.
When we decided to deprecate and remove fuzzy query in #15760, we didn't realize we would take away the possibililty for uses to use a fuzzy query as part of a span query, which is not possible using match query. This means we have to go back and un-deprecate fuzzy query, which will not be removed.
Closes#15760
This change allows specifying alias/wildcard expression in indices_boost.
And added another format for specifying indices_boost. It accepts array of index name and boost pair.
If an index is included in multiple aliases/wildcard expressions, the first match will be used.
With new format, old format is marked as deprecated.
Closes#4756
The documentation reads:
> You can disable this behavior by setting "detect_noop": false like this:
Followed by a code example, that originally set `"detect_noop": true`.
Please correct me if I got the change backwards (i.e. the paragraph should be changed to `true`), but this seems like it makes the most sense.
In 5.0, the search slow log switched to the multi-line format with no option to get back to the origin single-line format that was used prior to 5.0 by default. This commit removes the reformat option from the search slow log and returns the search slow log back to the single-line format.

The use of the avg aggregation for sorting the terms aggregation is not encouraged since it has unbounded error. This changes the examples to use the max aggregation which does not suffer the same issues
* Include unindexed field in FieldStats response
This change adds non-searchable fields to the FieldStats response. These fields do not have min/max informations but they can be aggregatable. Fields that are only stored in _source (store:no, index:no, doc_values:no) will still be missing since they do not have any useful information to show. Indices and clients must be at least on V_5_2_0 to see this change.
Changes the default socket and connection timeouts for the rest
client from 10 seconds to the more generous 30 seconds.
Defaults reindex-from-remote to those timeouts and make the
timeouts configurable like so:
```
POST _reindex
{
"source": {
"remote": {
"host": "http://otherhost:9200",
"socket_timeout": "1m",
"connect_timeout": "10s"
},
"index": "source",
"query": {
"match": {
"test": "data"
}
}
},
"dest": {
"index": "dest"
}
}
```
Closes#21707
Today if system call filters fail to install on startup, we log a
message but otherwise march on. This might leave users without system
call filters installed not knowing that they have implicitly accepted
the additional risk. We should not be lenient like this, instead clearly
informing the user that they have to either fix their configuration or
accept the risk of not having system call filters installed. This commit
adds a bootstrap check that if system call filters are enabled, they
must successfully install.

The reference for the jvm.options docs recently changed from
es-java-opts to jvm-options. This commit fixes a broken reference that
arose as a result of this change.
Elasticsearch can be run in a few different ways:
- from the command line on Linux and Windows
- as a service on Linux and Windows
on both 32-bit client and 64-bit server VMs. We strive for a great
out-of-the-box experience any of these combinations but today it is
lacking on 32-bit client JVMs and on the Windows service. There are two
deficiencies that arise:
- on any 32-bit client JVM we fail to start out of the box because we
force the server JVM in jvm.options
- when installing the Windows service, the thread stack size must be
specified in jvm.options
This commit attempts to address these deficiencies.
We should continue to force the server JVM because there are systems
where the server JVM is not active by default (e.g., the 32-bit JDK on
Windows). This does mean that if a user tries to run with a client JVM
they will see a failure message at startup but this is the best that we
can do if we want to continue to force the server JVM. Thus, this commit
at least documents this situation.
To improve the situation with installing the Windows service, this
commit adds a default setting for the thread stack size. This default is
chosen based on the default thread stack size across all 64-bit server
JVMs. This means that if a user tries to run with a 32-bit JVM they
could otherwise see significantly higher memory usage (this situation is
complicated, it's really only on Windows where the extra memory usage is
egregious, but cutting into the 32-bit address space on any system is
bad). So this commit makes it so that the out-of-the-box experience is
improved for the Windows service on 64-bit server JVMs and we document
the need to adjust this setting on 32-bit JVMs.
Again, we are focusing on the out-of-the-box experience here and this
means optimizing for the best experience on any 64-bit server JVM as
this covers the vast majority of the user base. The users that are on
32-bit JVMs will suffer a little bit but at least now any user on any
64-bit server JVM can start Elasticsearch out of the box.
Finally, we fix some references to the jvm.options documentation.

During package install on systemd-based systems, we try to set
vm.max_map_count. On some systems (e.g., containers), users do not have
the ability to tune these parameters from within the container. This
commit provides an option for these users to skip setting such kernel
parameters.
