The realtime GET API currently has erratic performance in case where a document is accessed
that has just been indexed but not refreshed yet, as the implementation will currently force an
internal refresh in that case. Refreshing can be an expensive operation, and also will block the
thread that executes the GET operation, blocking other GETs to be processed. In case of
frequent access of recently indexed documents, this can lead to a refresh storm and terrible
GET performance.
While older versions of Elasticsearch (2.x and older) did not trigger refreshes and instead opted
to read from the translog in case of realtime GET API or update API, this was removed in 5.0
(#20102) to avoid inconsistencies between values that were returned from the translog and
those returned by the index. This was partially reverted in 6.3 (#29264) to allow _update and
upsert to read from the translog again as it was easier to guarantee consistency for these, and
also brought back more predictable performance characteristics of this API. Calls to the realtime
GET API, however, would still always do a refresh if necessary to return consistent results. This
means that users that were calling realtime GET APIs to coordinate updates on client side
(realtime GET + CAS for conditional index of updated doc) would still see very erratic
performance.
This PR (together with #48707) resolves the inconsistencies between reading from translog and
index. In particular it fixes the inconsistencies that happen when requesting stored fields, which
were not available when reading from translog. In case where stored fields are requested, this
PR will reparse the _source from the translog and derive the stored fields to be returned. With
this, it changes the realtime GET API to allow reading from the translog again, avoid refresh
storms and blocking the GET threadpool, and provide overall much better and predictable
performance for this API.
We should not open new engines if a shard is closed. We break this
assumption in #45263 where we stop verifying the shard state before
creating an engine but only before swapping the engine reference.
We can fail to snapshot the store metadata or checkIndex a closed shard
if there's some IndexWriter holding the index lock.
Closes#47060
CCR follower stats can return information for persistent tasks that are in the process of being cleaned up. This is problematic for tests where CCR follower indices have been deleted, but their persistent follower task is only cleaned up asynchronously afterwards. If one of the following tests then accesses the follower stats, it might still get the stats for that follower task.
In addition, some tests were not cleaning up their auto-follow patterns, leaving orphaned patterns behind. Other tests cleaned up their auto-follow patterns. As always the same name was used, it just depended on the test execution order whether this led to a failure or not. This commit fixes the offensive tests, and will also automatically remove auto-follow-patterns at the end of tests, like we do for many other features.
Closes #48700
In repository integration tests, we drain the HTTP request body before
returning a response. Before this change this operation was done using
Streams.readFully() which uses a 8kb buffer to read the input stream, it
now uses a 1kb for the same operation. This should reduce the allocations
made during the tests and speed them up a bit on CI.

Backport of #48452.
The SAML tests have large XML documents within which various parameters
are replaced. At present, if these test are auto-formatted, the XML
documents get strung out over many, many lines, and are basically
illegible.
Fix this by using named placeholders for variables, and indent the
multiline XML documents.
The tests in `SamlSpMetadataBuilderTests` deserve a special mention,
because they include a number of certificates in Base64. I extracted
these into variables, for additional legibility.
* Extract remote "sniffing" to connection strategy (#47253)
Currently the connection strategy used by the remote cluster service is
implemented as a multi-step sniffing process in the
RemoteClusterConnection. We intend to introduce a new connection strategy
that will operate in a different manner. This commit extracts the
sniffing logic to a dedicated strategy class. Additionally, it implements
dedicated tests for this class.
Additionally, in previous commits we moved away from a world where the
remote cluster connection was mutable. Instead, when setting updates are
made, the connection is torn down and rebuilt. We still had methods and
tests hanging around for the mutable behavior. This commit removes those.
* Introduce simple remote connection strategy (#47480)
This commit introduces a simple remote connection strategy which will
open remote connections to a configurable list of user supplied
addresses. These addresses can be remote Elasticsearch nodes or
intermediate proxies. We will perform normal clustername and version
validation, but otherwise rely on the remote cluster to route requests
to the appropriate remote node.
* Make remote setting updates support diff strategies (#47891)
Currently the entire remote cluster settings infrastructure is designed
around the sniff strategy. As we introduce an additional conneciton
strategy this infrastructure needs to be modified to support it. This
commit modifies the code so that the strategy implementations will tell
the service if the connection needs to be torn down and rebuilt.
As part of this commit, we will wait 10 seconds for new clusters to
connect when they are added through the "update" settings
infrastructure.

BytesReference is currently an abstract class which is extended by
various implementations. This makes it very difficult to use the
delegation pattern. The implication of this is that our releasable
BytesReference is a PagedBytesReference type and cannot be used as a
generic releasable bytes reference that delegates to any reference type.
This commit makes BytesReference an interface and introduces an
AbstractBytesReference for common functionality.
Brings handling of out of bounds points in linestrings in line with

Relates to #43916
This change adds a new field `"shards"` to `RepositoryData` that contains a mapping of `IndexId` to a `String[]`. This string array can be accessed by shard id to get the generation of a shard's shard folder (i.e. the `N` in the name of the currently valid `/indices/${indexId}/${shardId}/index-${N}` for the shard in question).
This allows for creating a new snapshot in the shard without doing any LIST operations on the shard's folder. In the case of AWS S3, this saves about 1/3 of the cost for updating an empty shard (see #45736) and removes one out of two remaining potential issues with eventually consistent blob stores (see #38941 ... now only the root `index-${N}` is determined by listing).
Also and equally if not more important, a number of possible failure modes on eventually consistent blob stores like AWS S3 are eliminated by moving all delete operations to the `master` node and moving from incremental naming of shard level index-N to uuid suffixes for these blobs.
This change moves the deleting of the previous shard level `index-${uuid}` blob to the master node instead of the data node allowing for a safe and consistent update of the shard's generation in the `RepositoryData` by first updating `RepositoryData` and then deleting the now unreferenced `index-${newUUID}` blob.
__No deletes are executed on the data nodes at all for any operation with this change.__
Note also: Previous issues with hanging data nodes interfering with master nodes are completely impossible, even on S3 (see next section for details).
This change changes the naming of the shard level `index-${N}` blobs to a uuid suffix `index-${UUID}`. The reason for this is the fact that writing a new shard-level `index-` generation blob is not atomic anymore in its effect. Not only does the blob have to be written to have an effect, it must also be referenced by the root level `index-N` (`RepositoryData`) to become an effective part of the snapshot repository.
This leads to a problem if we were to use incrementing names like we did before. If a blob `index-${N+1}` is written but due to the node/network/cluster/... crashes the root level `RepositoryData` has not been updated then a future operation will determine the shard's generation to be `N` and try to write a new `index-${N+1}` to the already existing path. Updates like that are problematic on S3 for consistency reasons, but also create numerous issues when thinking about stuck data nodes.
Previously stuck data nodes that were tasked to write `index-${N+1}` but got stuck and tried to do so after some other node had already written `index-${N+1}` were prevented form doing so (except for on S3) by us not allowing overwrites for that blob and thus no corruption could occur.
Were we to continue using incrementing names, we could not do this. The stuck node scenario would either allow for overwriting the `N+1` generation or force us to continue using a `LIST` operation to figure out the next `N` (which would make this change pointless).
With uuid naming and moving all deletes to `master` this becomes a non-issue. Data nodes write updated shard generation `index-${uuid}` and `master` makes those `index-${uuid}` part of the `RepositoryData` that it deems correct and cleans up all those `index-` that are unused.

The code here was needlessly complicated when it
enqueued all file uploads up-front. Instead, we can
go with a cleaner worker + queue pattern here by taking
the max-parallelism from the threadpool info.
Also, I slightly simplified the rethrow and
listener (step listener is pointless when you add the callback in the next line)
handling it since I noticed that we were needlessly rethrowing in the same
code and that wasn't worth a separate PR.
The test FW has a method to check that it's implementation of getting
index and wire compatible versions as well as reasoning about which
version is released or not produces the same rezults as the simillar
implementation in the build.
This PR adds the `verifyVersions` task to the test FW so we have one
task to check everything related to versions.
Especially in the snapshot code there's a lot
of logic chaining `ActionRunnables` in tricky
ways now and the code is getting hard to follow.
This change introduces two convinience methods that
make it clear that a wrapped listener is invoked with
certainty in some trickier spots and shortens the code a bit.

While function scores using scripts do allow explanations, they are only
creatable with an expert plugin. This commit improves the situation for
the newer script score query by adding the ability to set the
explanation from the script itself.
To set the explanation, a user would check for `explanation != null` to
indicate an explanation is needed, and then call
`explanation.set("some description")`.
Today we control the extra translog (when soft-deletes is disabled) for
peer recoveries by size and age. If users manually (force) flush many
times within a short period, we can keep many small (or empty) translog
files as neither the size or age condition is reached. We can protect
the cluster from running out of the file descriptors in such a situation
by limiting the number of retaining translog files.
Changes auto-id index requests to use optype CREATE, making it compliant with our docs.

already documented.
This commit change the repositories base paths used in Azure/S3/GCS

As a result of #45689 snapshot finalization started to
take significantly longer than before. This may be a
little unfortunate since it increases the likelihood
of failing to finalize after having written out all
the segment blobs.
This change parallelizes all the metadata writes that
can safely run in parallel in the finalization step to
speed the finalization step up again. Also, this will
generally speed up the snapshot process overall in case
of large number of indices.
This is also a nice to have for #46250 since we add yet
another step (deleting of old index- blobs in the shards
to the finalization.
Backport of #45794 to 7.x. Convert most `awaitBusy` calls to
`assertBusy`, and use asserts where possible. Follows on from #28548 by
@liketic.
There were a small number of places where it didn't make sense to me to
call `assertBusy`, so I kept the existing calls but renamed the method to
`waitUntil`. This was partly to better reflect its usage, and partly so
that anyone trying to add a new call to awaitBusy wouldn't be able to find
it.
I also didn't change the usage in `TransportStopRollupAction` as the
comments state that the local awaitBusy method is a temporary
copy-and-paste.
Other changes:
* Rework `waitForDocs` to scale its timeout. Instead of calling
`assertBusy` in a loop, work out a reasonable overall timeout and await
just once.
* Some tests failed after switching to `assertBusy` and had to be fixed.
* Correct the expect templates in AbstractUpgradeTestCase. The ES
Security team confirmed that they don't use templates any more, so
remove this from the expected templates. Also rewrite how the setup
code checks for templates, in order to give more information.
* Remove an expected ML template from XPackRestTestConstants The ML team
advised that the ML tests shouldn't be waiting for any
`.ml-notifications*` templates, since such checks should happen in the
production code instead.
* Also rework the template checking code in `XPackRestTestHelper` to give
more helpful failure messages.
* Fix issue in `DataFrameSurvivesUpgradeIT` when upgrading from < 7.4
Currently the MockNioTransport uses a custom exception handler for
server channel exceptions. This means that bind failures are logged at
the warn level. This commit modifies the transport to use the common
TcpTransport exception handler which will log exceptions at the correct
level.
We disable MSU optimization if the local checkpoint is smaller than
max_seq_no_of_updates. Hence, we need to relax the MSU assertion in
FollowingEngine for that scenario. Suppose the leader has three
operations: index-0, delete-1, and index-2 for the same doc Id. MSU on
the leader is 1 as index-2 is an append. If the follower applies index-0
then index-2, then the assertion is violated.

The Azure SDK client expects server errors to have a body,
something that looks like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Error>
<Code>string-value</Code>

</Error>
I've forgot to add such errors in Azure tests and that triggers
some NPE in the client like the one reported in #47120.

Today if metadata persistence is excessively slow on a master-ineligible node
then the `ClusterApplierService` emits a warning indicating that the
`GatewayMetaState` applier was slow, but gives no further details. If it is
excessively slow on a master-eligible node then we do not see any warning at
all, although we might see other consequences such as a lagging node or a
master failure.
With this commit we emit a warning if metadata persistence takes longer than a
configurable threshold, which defaults to `10s`. We also emit statistics that
record how much index metadata was persisted and how much was skipped since
this can help distinguish cases where IO was slow from cases where there are
simply too many indices involved.
Backport of #47005.
Currently the logic to check if a connection to a remote discovery node
exists and otherwise create a proxy connection is mixed with the
collect nodes, cluster connection lifecycle, and other
RemoteClusterConnection logic. This commit introduces a specialized
RemoteConnectionManager class which handles the open connections.
Additionally, it reworks the "round-robin" proxy logic to create the list
of potential connections at connection open/close time, opposed to each
time a connection is requested.
Today we log and swallow exceptions during cluster state application, but such
an exception should not occur. This commit adds assertions of this fact, and
updates the Javadocs to explain it.

Currently in production instances of Elasticsearch we set a couple of
system properties by default. We currently do not apply all of these
system properties in tests. This commit applies these properties in the
tests.
Today `GatewayMetaState` implements `PersistedState` but it's an error to use
it as a `PersistedState` before it's been started, or if the node is
master-ineligible. It also holds some fields that are meaningless on nodes that
do not persist their states. Finally, it takes responsibility for both loading
the original cluster state and some of the high-level logic for writing the
cluster state back to disk.
This commit addresses these concerns by introducing a more specific
`PersistedState` implementation for use on master-eligible nodes which is only
instantiated if and when it's appropriate. It also moves the fields and
high-level persistence logic into a new `IncrementalClusterStateWriter` with a
more appropriate lifecycle.

Previously, queries on the _index field were not able to specify index aliases.
This was a regression in functionality compared to the 'indices' query that was
deprecated and removed in 6.0.
Now queries on _index can specify an alias, which is resolved to the concrete
index names when we check whether an index matches. To match a remote shard
target, the pattern needs to be of the form 'cluster:index' to match the
fully-qualified index name. Index aliases can be specified in the following query
types: term, terms, prefix, and wildcard.

When using auto-generated IDs + the ingest drop processor (which looks to be used by filebeat
as well) + coordinating nodes that do not have the ingest processor functionality, this can lead
to a NullPointerException.
The issue is that markCurrentItemAsDropped() is creating an UpdateResponse with no id when
the request contains auto-generated IDs. The response serialization is lenient for our
REST/XContent format (i.e. we will send "id" : null) but the internal transport format (used for
communication between nodes) assumes for this field to be non-null, which means that it can't
be serialized between nodes. Bulk requests with ingest functionality are processed on the
coordinating node if the node has the ingest capability, and only otherwise sent to a different
node. This means that, in order to reproduce this, one needs two nodes, with the coordinating
node not having the ingest functionality.
Closes#46678
This adds an assert to make sure we're not leaking
index-N blobs on the shard level to the repo consistency checks.
It is ok to have a single redundant index-N blob in a failure scenario
but additional index-N should always be cleaned up before adding more.
This commit adds support for resumable uploads to the internal HTTP
server used in GoogleCloudStorageBlobStoreRepositoryTests. This
way we can also test the behavior of the Google's client when the
service returns server errors in response to resumable upload requests.
The BlobStore implementation for GCS has the choice between 2
methods to upload a blob: resumable and multipart. In the current
implementation, the client executes a resumable upload if the blob
size is larger than LARGE_BLOB_THRESHOLD_BYTE_SIZE,
otherwise it executes a multipart upload. This commit makes this
logic overridable in tests, allowing to randomize the decision of
using one method or the other.
The commit add support for single request resumable uploads
and chunked resumable uploads (the blob is uploaded into multiple
2Mb chunks; each chunk being a resumable upload). For this last
case, this PR also adds a test testSnapshotWithLargeSegmentFiles
which makes it more probable that a chunked resumable upload is
executed.
Reenable this test since it was fixed by #45689 in production
code (specifically, the fact that we write the `snap-` blobs
without overwrite checks now).
Only required adding the assumed blocking on index file writes
to test code to properly work again.
