With this commit we instruct curl to retry with a backoff when
downloading the JDK for the Elasticsearch Docker image. This avoids
build failures on transient network issues. Note that this option
requires curl 7.12.3 or better.

We added some special handling for installing and removing the
ingest-geoip and ingest-user-agent plugins when we converted them to
modules. This special handling was done to minimize breaking users in a
minor release. However, do not want to maintain this behavior forever so
this commit removes that special handling in the master branch so that
starting with 7.0.0 this special handling will be gone.
* Deprecate types in index API
- deprecate type-based constructors of IndexRequest
- update tests to use typeless IndexRequest constructors
- no yaml tests as they have been already added in #35790
Relates to #35190
The following updates were made:
* Add deprecation warnings to `RestUpdateAction`, plus a test in `RestUpdateActionTests`.
* Deprecate relevant methods on the Java HLRC requests/ responses.
* Add HLRC integration tests for the typed APIs.
* Update documentation (for both the REST API and Java HLRC).
* Fix failing integration tests.
Because of an earlier PR, the REST yml tests were already updated (one version without types, and another legacy version that retains types).
When a security manager is present, the JVM will cache positive hostname
lookups indefinitely. This can be problematic, especially in the modern
world with cloud services where DNS addresses can change, or
environments using Docker containers where IP addresses could be
considered ephemeral. This behavior impacts cluster discovery,
cross-cluster replication and cross-cluster search, reindex from remote,
snapshot repositories, webhooks in Watcher, external authentication
mechanisms, and the Elastic Stack Monitoring Service. The experience of
watching a DNS lookup change yet not be reflected within Elasticsearch
is a poor experience for users. The reason the JVM has this is guard
against DNS cache posioning attacks. Yet, there is already a defense in
the modern world against such attacks: TLS. With proper certificate
validation, even if a resolver falls prey to a DNS cache poisoning
attack, using TLS would neuter the attack. Therefore we have a policy
with dubious security value that significantly impacts usability. As
such we make the usability/security tradeoff towards usability, since
the security risks are very low. This commit introduces new system
properties that Elasticsearch observes to override the JVM DNS cache
policy.
* Don't print download progress in batch mode
With this change we will no longer provide the progress bar in batch
mode.
Assuming that this is mode is mainly for consumption by tools which
will serialize the output, we shouldn't print a progress bar to be
for every percentile.
* PR review
For each API, the following updates were made:
- Add deprecation warnings to `Rest*Action`, plus tests in `Rest*ActionTests`.
- For each REST yml test, make sure there is one version without types, and another legacy version that retains types (called *_with_types.yml).
- Deprecate relevant methods on the Java HLRC requests/ responses.
- Update documentation (for both the REST API and Java HLRC).
This commit introduces the building of the Docker images as bonafide
packaging formats alongside our existing archive and packaging
distributions. This build is migrated from a dedicated repository, and
converted to Gradle in the process.
Currently is `java` is not in $PATH the preinst script fails
prematurely and prevents an appropriate message from getting displayed
to the user.
Make package installation more user friendly when java is not in
$PATH and add a test for it.
Also use a she-bang in the preinst script, as, at least in Debian,
maintainer scripts must start with the #! convention [1].

In the long run we want to move all of startup to a Java program. This
will simplify our startup scripts and make maintenance of startup less
dependent on the underlying platform that we run on. This commit moves
the creation of the temporary directory off of system-dependent commands
and onto a simple Java program.
The list of official plugins accidentally included `qa` projects like,
well, `qa` and `amazon-ec2`. This changes the mechanism that we use to
build the list and adds a test to catch this.
Closes#35623
With this change, `Version` no longer carries information about the qualifier,
we still need a way to show the "display version" that does have both
qualifier and snapshot. This is now stored by the build and red from `META-INF`.
* Introduce property to set version qualifier
- VersionProperties.elasticsearch is now a string which can have qualifier
and snapshot too
- The Version class in the build no longer cares about snapshot and
qualifier.
This commit updates the procrun manager and service exes to 1.1.0. There
are a few bug fixes, including for a bug which can cause lingering
processes when removing the service.
Back in #32983 I broke running the integ-test-zip tests against an
external cluster by adding a test that reads the contents of the log
file. This fixes running against an external cluster by explicitly
skipping that test if running against an external cluster.
The BWC builds for the 6.x branch should be using JDK 11. This commit
fixes the BWC builds to specify that they use JDK 11 instead of JDK 10
which is now incompatible with the 6.x build.
To pass the HOSTNAME envrionment variable to the Windows service, we
have to add some command line flags to the service invocation. Namely,
we have to specify that we are passing HOSTNAME variable, and we will
pass for it the value of %%COMPUTERNAME%%. This ensures that if the
hostname is changed, we pick this up the next time that the service is
started. This change is needed for the service now that we use the
HOSTNAME as the default node name.
#32281 adds elasticsearch-shard to provide bwc version of elasticsearch-translog for 6.x; have to remove elasticsearch-translog for 7.0
Relates to #31389
When we implemented `refresh=wait_for` I added a test with the wrong
name. This caused us to not run it. The test asserted that running
several operations with `refresh=wait_for` did not fail if the index was
`_close`d while the operations were waiting. But to be honest, failure
here isn't that bad. The index being waited on is closed. You can't do
anything with it any way. The most important thing is actually that
these operations don't hang forever. Because hanging forever means that
the resources used by the operations aren't freed.
Anyway, when I noticed the error I reenabled the test. But they don't
pass consistently because *sometimes* the operations being tested fail.
They don't seem to hang and they always fail with "this index is closed
so you can't do anything with it" sorts of messages.
When the test started failing we disabled it again. This reenables the
test but causes it to ignore these "index is closed" failures. We'd
prefer they not happen at all but in the grand scheme of things they are
fine and making sure these operations don't hang is much more important.
This also updates the test to bring it more in line with my current
understanding of the "right" way to use the low level rest client.
* Add commented out JVM options for G1GC
These options are available now that we will be supporting G1GC for Java 10 and
above. They are also designed so that the CMS options don't have to be commented
out in order for the G1 options to take effect.
* Update wording
Changes the default of the `node.name` setting to the hostname of the
machine on which Elasticsearch is running. Previously it was the first 8
characters of the node id. This had the advantage of producing a unique
name even when the node name isn't configured but the disadvantage of
being unrecognizable and not being available until fairly late in the
startup process. Of particular interest is that it isn't available until
after logging is configured. This forces us to use a volatile read
whenever we add the node name to the log.
Using the hostname is available immediately on startup and is generally
recognizable but has the disadvantage of not being unique when run on
machines that don't set their hostname or when multiple elasticsearch
processes are run on the same host. I believe that, taken together, it
is better to default to the hostname.
1. Running multiple copies of Elasticsearch on the same node is a fairly
advanced feature. We do it all the as part of the elasticsearch build
for testing but we make sure to set the node name then.
2. That the node.name defaults to some flavor of "localhost" on an
unconfigured box feels like it isn't going to come up too much in
production. I expect most production deployments to at least set the
hostname.
As a bonus, production deployments need no longer set the node name in
most cases. At least in my experience most folks set it to the hostname
anyway.
I created a test a few days ago and declared a package that doesn't line
up with the directory structure. Oops. I a little surprised nothing
complained. But this fixes it.
I disabled one branch a few hours ago because it failed in CI. It looks
like other branches can also fail so I'll disable them as well and look
more closely on Monday.
Change the logging infrastructure to handle when the node name isn't
available in `elasticsearch.yml`. In that case the node name is not
available until long after logging is configured. The biggest change is
that the node name logging no longer fixed at pattern build time.
Instead it is read from a `SetOnce` on every print. If it is unset it is
printed as `unknown` so we have something that fits in the pattern.
On normal startup we don't log anything until the node name is available
so we never see the `unknown`s.
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
Gradle triggers the build of artifacts even if assemble is disabled.
Most users will not need bwc distributions after running `./gradlew
assemble` so instead of forcing them to add `-x buildBwcVersion`, we
detect this and skip the configuration of the artifacts.
- third party audit detects jar hell with JDK so we disable it
- jdk non portable in forbiddenapis detects classes being used from the
JDK ( for fips ) that are not portable, this is intended so we don't
scan for it on fips.
- different exclusion rules for third party audit on fips
Closes#33179
In #29623 we added `Request` object flavored requests to the low level
REST client and in #30315 we deprecated the old `performRequest`s. This
changes all calls in the `client` and `distribution` projects to use
the new versions.
