Today when parsing settings during bootstrap, we add a system property
for every Elasticsearch setting. Additionally, settings can be set via
system properties. This commit simplifies this situation.
- settings are no longer propogated to system properties
- system properties can not be used to set settings
- the "es." prefix on settings is no longer required (nor permitted)
- test logging has a dedicated system property (tests.logger.level)

This changes our packaging to be explicit about the permissions of files
and directories in the tar.gz, rpm, and deb packages. This is to protect
against a user having an incorrectly set umask when installing.
Additionally, plugins that are installed now have their permissions set
by the plugin installation so that plugins that may have been packaged
with incorrect permissions are secured.
Resolves#17634
This commit adds a bootstrap check on Linux and OS X for the max size of
virtual memory (address space) to the user running the Elasticsearch
process.
Closes#16935
This commit sets up the default filesystem used during install plugins
tests. A hack is neeeded to handle the temporary directory because the
system property "java.io.tmpdir" will have been initialized to a value
that is sensible for the default filesystem, but not necessarily to a
value that makes sense for the mock filesystem in use during the
tests. This property is restored after each test.
This commit refactors the unit tests for installing plugins to test
against mock filesystems (as well as the native filesystem) for better
test coverage. This commit also adds tests that cover the POSIX
attributes handling when installing plugins (e.g., ensuring that the
plugins directory has the right permissions, the bin directory has
execute permissions, and the config directory has the same owner and
group as its parent).
Today, certain bootstrap properties are set and read via system
properties. This action-at-distance way of managing these properties is
rather confusing, and completely unnecessary. But another problem exists
with setting these as system properties. Namely, these system properties
are interpreted as Elasticsearch settings, not all of which are
registered. This leads to Elasticsearch failing to startup if any of
these special properties are set. Instead, these properties should be
kept as local as possible, and passed around as method parameters where
needed. This eliminates the action-at-distance way of handling these
properties, and eliminates the need to register these non-setting
properties. This commit does exactly that.
Additionally, today we use the "-D" command line flag to set the
properties, but this is confusing because "-D" is a special flag to the
JVM for setting system properties. This creates confusion because some
"-D" properties should be passed via arguments to the JVM (so via
ES_JAVA_OPTS), and some should be passed as arguments to
Elasticsearch. This commit changes the "-D" flag for Elasticsearch
settings to "-E".
When unzipping a plugin zip, the zip entries are resolved relative to
the directory being unzipped into. However, there are currently no
checks that the entry name was not absolute, or relatively points
outside of the plugin dir. This change adds a check for those two cases.
Currently, the cluster service is tightly coupled to the transport service by both managing node connections and requiring the bound address in order to create the local disco node. This commit introduces a new NodeConnectionsService which is in charge of node connection management and makes it possible to remove all network related calls from the cluster service. The local DiscoNode is now created by DiscoveryNodeService and is set both the cluster service and the transport service during node start up.

This commit simplifies and consolidates the two different
implementations of terminals used in tests. There is now a single
MockTerminal which captures output, and allows accessing as one large
string (with unix style \n as newlines), as well as configuring
input.
DiscoveryService was a bridge into the discovery universe. This is unneeded and we can just access discovery directly or do things in a different way.
One of those different ways, is not having a dedicated discovery implementation for each our dicovery plugins but rather reuse ZenDiscovery.
UnicastHostProviders are now classified by discovery type, removing unneeded checks on plugins.
Closes#16821
Today we might start a node and some of the paths might not have the
required permissions. This commit goes through all data directories as
well as index, shard and state directories and ensures we have write access.
To make this work across all OS etc. we are trying to write a real file
and remove it again in each of those directories
One of our tests leaked a system property here since we failed after appling some
system properties in BootstrapCLIParser. This is not a huge deal in production since
we exit the JVM if we fail on that. Yet for correctnes we should only apply them if
we manage to parse them all.
This also caused a test failure lately on CI but on an unrelated test:
https://elasticsearch-ci.elastic.co/job/elastic+elasticsearch+master+periodic/314/console
Identifying when a plugin id is maven coordinates is currently done by
checking if the plugin id contains 2 colons. However, a valid url could
have 2 colons, for example when a port is specified. This change adds
another check, ensuring the plugin id with maven coordinates does not
contain a slash, which only a url would have.

This commit enableds strict settings validation on node startup. All settings
passed to elasticsearch either through system properties, yaml files or any other
way to pass settings must be registered and valid. Settings that are unknown ie. due to
typos or due to deprecation or removal will cause the node to NOT start up. Plugins
have to declare all their settings on the `SettingsModule#registerSetting` and settings for
plugins that are not installed must be removed.
This commit also removes the ability to specify the nodes name via `-Des.name` or just `name` in the
configuration files. The node name must be prefixed with the node prexif like `node.name: Boom`. Left over
usage of `name` will also cause startup to fail.
Cli tools currently catch all exceptions, and only print the exception
message, except when a special system property is set. Even with this
flag set, certain exceptions, like IOException, are captured and their
stack trace is always lost.
This change adds a UserError class, which can be used a cli tools to
specify a message to the user, as well as an exit status. All other
exceptions are propagated out of main, so java will exit with non-zero
and print the stack trace.
The plugin cli currently is extremely lenient, allowing most errors to
simply be logged. This can lead to either corrupt installations (eg
partially installed plugins), or confused users.
This change rewrites the plugin cli to have almost no leniency.
Unfortunately it was not possible to remove all leniency, due in
particular to how config files are handled.
The following functionality was simplified:
* The format of the name argument to install a plugin is now an official
plugin name, maven coordinates, or a URL.
* Checksum files are required, and only checked, for official plugins
and maven plugins. Checksums are also only SHA1.
* Downloading no longer uses a separate thread, and no longer has a timeout.
* Installation, and removal, attempts to be atomic. This only truly works
when no config or bin files exist.
* config and bin directories are verified before copying is attempted.
* Permissions and user/group are no longer set on config and bin files.
We rely on the users umask.
* config and bin directories must only contain files, no subdirectories.
* The code is reorganized so each command is a separate class. These
classes already existed, but were embedded in the plugin cli class, as
an extra layer between the cli code and the code running for each command.
If we don't do this, and some path.conf is set when starting the tribe node, that path.conf will be ignored and the inner tribe clients will try to read elsewhere, where they most likely don't have permissions to read from.

Site plugins used to be used for things like kibana and marvel, but
there is no longer a need since kibana (and marvel as a kibana plugin)
uses node.js. This change removes site plugins, as well as the flag for
jvm plugins. Now all plugins are jvm plugins.
This commit removes and now forbids all uses of
Collections#shuffle(List) and Random#<init>() across the codebase. The
rationale for removing and forbidding these methods is to increase test
reproducibility. As these methods use non-reproducible seeds, production
code and tests that rely on these methods contribute to
non-reproducbility of tests.
Instead of Collections#shuffle(List) the method
Collections#shuffle(List, Random) can be used. All that is required then
is a reproducible source of randomness. Consequently, the utility class
Randomness has been added to assist in creating reproducible sources of
randomness.
Instead of Random#<init>(), Random#<init>(long) with a reproducible seed
or the aforementioned Randomess class can be used.
Closes#15287
The NodeBuilder is currently used to construct a Node. However, this is
really just yet-another-builder that wraps around a Settings.Builder
witha couple convenience methods. But there are very few uses of these
convenience methods. This change removes NodeBuilder, in favor of just
using the Node constructor.
The tribe node creates one local client node for each cluster it
connects to. Refactorings in #13383 broke this so that each local client
node now tries to load the full elasticsearch.yml that the real tribe
node uses.
This change fixes the problem by adding a TribeClientNode which is a
subclass of Node. The Environment the node uses is now passed in (in
place of Settings), and the TribeClientNode simply does not use
InternalSettingsPreparer.prepareEnvironment.
The tests around tribe nodes are not great. The existing tests pass, but
I also manually tested by creating 2 local clusters, and configuring and
starting a tribe node. With this I was able to see in the logs the tribe
node connecting to each cluster.
closes#13383
* Forbid System.setProperties & co in forbidden APIs.
* Ban property write access at runtime with security manager.
Plugins that need to modify system properties will need to request permission in their plugin-security.policy

Just suck in the system policy, so its compatible with any version of java.
It means it also respects configuration (e.g. for monitoring agents)
