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
In #29623 we added `Request` object flavored requests to the low level
REST client and in #30315 we deprecated the old `performRequest`s. In a
long series of PRs I've changed all of the old style requests. This
drops the deprecated methods and will be released with 7.0.
We used to set `maxScore` to `0` within `TopDocs` in situations where there is really no score as the size was set to `0` and scores were not even tracked. In such scenarios, `Float.Nan` is more appropriate, which gets converted to `max_score: null` on the REST layer. That's also more consistent with lucene which set `maxScore` to `Float.Nan` when merging empty `TopDocs` (see `TopDocs#merge`).
Currently, if geo context is represented by something other than
geo_point or an object with lat and lon fields, the parsing of it
as a geo context can result in ignoring the context altogether,
returning confusing errors such as number_format_exception or trying
to parse the number specifying as long-encoded hash code. It would also
fail if the geo_point was stored.
This commit makes the mapping parsing more strict and will fail during
mapping update or index creation if the geo context doesn't point to
a geo_point field.

Resolving wildcards in aliases expression is challenging as we may end
up with no aliases to replace the original expression with, but if we
replace with an empty array that means _all which is quite the opposite.
Now that we support and serialize the original requested aliases,
whenever aliases are replaced we will be able to know what was
initially requested. `MetaData#findAliases` can then be updated to not
return anything in case it gets empty aliases, but the original aliases
were not empty. That means that empty aliases are interpreted as _all
only if they were originally requested that way.

Because this is a static method on a public API, and one that we encourage
plugin authors to use, the method with the typo is deprecated in 6.x
rather than just renamed.
With this commit we introduce a new circuit-breaking strategy to the parent
circuit breaker. Contrary to the current implementation which only accounts for
memory reserved via child circuit breakers, the new strategy measures real heap
memory usage at the time of reservation. This allows us to be much more
aggressive with the circuit breaker limit so we bump it to 95% by default. The
new strategy is turned on by default and can be controlled with the new cluster
setting `indices.breaker.total.userealmemory`.
Note that we turn it off for all integration tests with an internal test cluster
because it leads to spurious test failures which are of no value (we cannot
fully control heap memory usage in tests). All REST tests, however, will make
use of the real memory circuit breaker.

Removes support for storing scripts without the usual json around the
script. So You can no longer do:
```
POST _scripts/<templatename>
{
"query": {
"match": {
"title": "{{query_string}}"
}
}
}
```
and must instead do:
```
POST _scripts/<templatename>
{
"script": {
"lang": "mustache",
"source": {
"query": {
"match": {
"title": "{{query_string}}"
}
}
}
}
}
```
This improves error reporting when you attempt to store a script but don't
quite get the syntax right. Before, there was a good chance that we'd
think of it as a "raw" template and just store it. Now we won't do that.
Nice.
So far the in-flight request circuit breaker has only accounted for the
on-the-wire representation of a request. However, we convert the raw
request into XContent internally which increases the overhead.
Therefore, we increase the value of the corresponding setting
`network.breaker.inflight_requests.overhead` from one to two. While this
value is still rather conservative (we assume that the representation as
structured objects has no overhead compared to the byte[]), it is closer
to reality than the current value.

* Migrate scripted metric aggregation scripts to ScriptContext design #29328
* Rename new script context container class and add clarifying comments to remaining references to params._agg(s)
* Misc cleanup: make mock metric agg script inner classes static
* Move _score to an accessor rather than an arg for scripted metric agg scripts
This causes the score to be evaluated only when it's used.
* Documentation changes for params._agg -> agg
* Migration doc addition for scripted metric aggs _agg object change
* Rename "agg" Scripted Metric Aggregation script context variable to "state"
* Rename a private base class from ...Agg to ...State that I missed in my last commit
* Clean up imports after merge
With #29331 we added support for the cluster health API to the
high-level REST client. The transport client does not support the level
parameter, and it always returns all the info needed for shards level
rendering. We have maintained that behaviour when adding support for
cluster health to the high-level REST client, to ease migration, but the
correct thing to do is to default the high-level REST client to
`cluster` level, which is the same default as when going through the
Elasticsearch REST layer.
This commit removes all the API methods that accept a `Header` varargs
argument, in favour of the newly introduced API methods that accept a
`RequestOptions` argument.

With `max_concurrent_shard_requests` we used to throttle / limit
the number of concurrent shard requests a high level search request
can execute per node. This had several problems since it limited the
number on a global level based on the number of nodes. This change
now throttles the number of concurrent requests per node while still
allowing concurrency across multiple nodes.
Closes#31192
When `lenient=false`, attempts to create match phrase queries with custom analyzers against non-text fields will throw an IllegalArgumentException.
Also changes `*Match*QueryBuilderTests` so that it avoids this scenario
Fixes#31061
Currently failures to compile a script usually lead to a ScriptException, which
inherits the 500 INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR from ElasticsearchException if it does
not contain another root cause. Instead, this should be a 400 Bad Request error.
This PR changes this more generally for script compilation errors by changing
ScriptException to return 400 (bad request) as status code.
Closes#12315
Include size of snapshot in snapshot metadata
Adds difference of number of files (and file sizes) between prev and current snapshot. Total number/size reflects total number/size of files in snapshot.
Closes#18543
Treats geohashes as grid cells instead of just points when the
geohashes are used to specify the edges in the geo_bounding_box
query. For example, if a geohash is used to specify the top_left
corner, the top left corner of the geohash cell will be used as the
corner of the bounding box.
Closes#25154
This commit reintroduces 31251c9 and 63a5799. These commits introduced a
memory leak and were reverted. This commit brings those commits back
and fixes the memory leak by removing unnecessary retain method calls.
This reverts commit 31251c9 introduced in #30695.
We suspect this commit is causing the OOME's reported in #30811 and we will use this PR to test this assertion.
This is related to #29500 and #28898. This commit removes the abilitiy
to disable http pipelining. After this commit, any elasticsearch node
will support pipelined requests from a client. Additionally, it extracts
some of the http pipelining work to the server module. This extracted
work is used to implement pipelining for the nio plugin.
The getDate() and getDates() existed prior to 5.x on long fields in
scripting. In 5.x, a new Date type for ScriptDocValues was added. The
getDate() and getDates() methods were left on long fields and added to date
fields to ease the transition. This commit removes those methods for
7.0.
This commit removes the http.enabled setting. While all real nodes (started with bin/elasticsearch) will always have an http binding, there are many tests that rely on the quickness of not actually needing to bind to 2 ports. For this case, the MockHttpTransport.TestPlugin provides a dummy http transport implementation which is used by default in ESIntegTestCase.

Systemd overrides should happen through /etc/systemd/system, not
directly editing the service file. This commit removes marking the
service file as configuration for rpm and deb packages.
Today when an index is created from shrinking or splitting an existing
index, the target index inherits almost none of the source index
settings. This is surprising and a hassle for operators managing such
indices. Given this is the default behavior, we can not simply change
it. Instead, we start by introducing the ability to copy settings. This
flag can be set on the REST API or on the transport layer and it has the
behavior that it copies all settings from the source except non-copyable
settings (a property of a setting introduced in this
change). Additionally, settings on the request will always override.
This change is the first step in our adventure:
- this flag is added here in 7.0.0 and immediately deprecated
- this flag will be backported to 6.4.0 and remain deprecated
- then, we will remove the ability to set this flag to false in 7.0.0
- finally, in 8.0.0 we will remove this flag and the only behavior will
be for settings to be copied
A previous change modified the output of the thread pool info contained
in the nodes info API. This commit adds a note to the migration docs for
this change.
This metric previously existed for backwards compatibility reasons
although the suggest stats were folded into search stats. This metric
was deprecated in 6.3.0 and this commit removes them for 7.0.0.
The name of the bulk thread pool was renamed to "write" with "bulk" as a
fallback name. This change was made in 6.x for BWC reasons yet in 7.0.0
we are removing this fallback. This commit removes this fallback for the
write thread pool.
Now that single-document indexing requests are executed on the bulk
thread pool the index thread pool is no longer needed. This commit
removes this thread pool from Elasticsearch.
CRUD: Parsing changes for UpdateRequest (#29293)
Use `ObjectParser` to parse `UpdateRequest` so we reject unknown fields
and drop support for the `_fields` parameter because it was deprecated
in 5.x.
This change validates that the `_search` request does not have trailing
tokens after the main object and fails the request with a parsing exception otherwise.
Closes#28995
Some features have been deprecated since `6.0` like the `_parent` field or the
ability to have multiple types per index. This allows to remove quite some
code, which in-turn will hopefully make it easier to proceed with the removal
of types.
From 7.0 on, using `delimited_payload_filter` should throw an error.
It was deprecated in 6.2 in favour of `delimited_payload` (#26625).

This improves the way similarities are plugged in in order to:
- reject the classic similarity on 7.x indices and emit a deprecation
warning otherwise
- reject unkwown parameters on 7.x indices and emit a deprecation
warning otherwise
Even though this breaks the plugin API, I'd like to backport to 7.x so
that users can get deprecation warnings when they are doing something
that will become unsupported in the future.
Closes#23208Closes#29035
This commit removes some parameters deprecated in 6.x (or 5.x):
`use_dismax`, `split_on_whitespace`, `all_fields` and `lowercase_expanded_terms`.
Closes#25551
This will reject mapping updates to the `_default_` mapping with 7.x indices
and still emit a deprecation warning with 6.x indices.
