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
The main highlight is the removal of the reclaim_deletes_weight in the TieredMergePolicy.
The es setting index.merge.policy.reclaim_deletes_weight is deprecated in this commit and the value is ignored. The new merge policy setting setDeletesPctAllowed should be added in a follow up.
This snapshot includes:
- LUCENE-8341: Record soft deletes in SegmentCommitInfo which will resolve#30851
- LUCENE-8335: Enforce soft-deletes field up-front
The new snapshot includes LUCENE-8324 which fixes missing checkpoint
after a fully deletes segment is dropped on flush. This snapshot should
resolves failed tests in the CorruptedFileIT suite.
Closes#30741Closes#30577
Upgrade to lucene-7.4.0-snapshot-1ed95c097b
This version contains:
* An Analyzer for Korean
* An IntervalQuery and IntervalsSource that retrieve minimum intervals of positional queries.
* A new API to retrieve matches (offsets and positions) of a query for a single document.
* Support for soft deletes in the index writer.
* A fixed shingle filter that handles index time synonyms.
* Support for emoji sequence in ICUTokenizer (with an upgrade to icu 61.1)
* Begin moving XContent to a separate lib/artifact
This commit moves a large portion of the XContent code from the `server` project
to the `libs/xcontent` project. For the pieces that have been moved, some
helpers have been duplicated to allow them to be decoupled from ES helper
classes. In addition, `Booleans` and `CheckedFunction` have been moved to the
`elasticsearch-core` project.
This decoupling is a move so that we can eventually make things like the
high-level REST client not rely on the entire ES jar, only the parts it needs.
There are some pieces that are still not decoupled, in particular some of the
XContent tests still remain in the server project, this is because they test a
large portion of the pluggable xcontent pieces through
`XContentElasticsearchException`. They may be decoupled in future work.
Additionally, there may be more piecese that we want to move to the xcontent lib
in the future that are not part of this PR, this is a starting point.
