* Add guidance on using CCR with Logstash
This commit adds a note to the documentation regarding how to configure
Logstash indices in the context of being available as leader indices for
cross-cluster replication.

This commit adds deprecation warnings when using format specifiers with
joda data formats that will change with java time. It also adds the "8"
prefix which may be used to force the new java time format parsing.
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.
Previously persistent task assignment was checked in the
following situations:
- Persistent tasks are changed
- A node joins or leaves the cluster
- The routing table is changed
- Custom metadata in the cluster state is changed
- A new master node is elected
However, there could be situations when a persistent
task that could not be assigned to a node could become
assignable due to some other change, such as memory
usage on the nodes.
This change adds a timed recheck of persistent task
assignment to account for such situations. The timer
is suspended while checks triggered by cluster state
changes are in-flight to avoid adding burden to an
already busy cluster.
Closes#35792
Redeprecates the `/_xpack/rollup` endpoints in favor of `/_rollup`.
When we cleanup the rollup in a cluster containing 6.x nodes we need to
use `/_xpack/rollup` instead of `/_rollup` because the 6.x nodes don't
know about `/_rollup`. In those cases we must ignore the deprecation
warnings that the 7.0 node will return for the end point.
Closes#36044
* Renamed DAY_OF_WEEK and WEEK_OF_YEAR functions to their ISO version and
added the same functions with different functionality.
* Rewritten the datetime functions documentation to follow the format of the other
functions documentation pages.
Adds a setting that indicates that an index is done indexing, set by ILM
when the Rollover action completes. This indicates that the Rollover
action should be skipped in any future invocations, as long as the index
is no longer the write index for its alias.
This enables 1) an index with a policy that involves the Rollover action
to have the policy removed and switched to another one without use of
the move-to-step API, and 2) integrations with Beats and CCR.

Bulk requests comprise many individual actions, and the responses for each
action comes back in the same order (see e.g. `DocumentActionsIT#testBulk()`).
However the docs do not seem to explicitly state this vital fact. This commit
addresses that omission.
The following updates were made:
- Add a new untyped endpoint `{index}/_explain/{id}`.
- 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 gets rid of the 'NONE' and 'INFO' severity levels for
deprecation issues.
'NONE' is unused and does not make much sense as a severity level.
'INFO' can be separated into two categories: Either 1) we can
definitively tell there will be a problem with the cluster/node/index
configuration that can be resolved prior to upgrade, in which case
the issue should be a WARNING, or 2) we can't, because any issues would
be at the application level, for which the user should review the
deprecation logs and/or response headers.
In real deployments it is important that clusters are properly configured to
avoid accidentally forming multiple independent clusters at cluster
bootstrapping time. However we also expect to be able to unpack Elasticsearch
and start up one or more nodes without any up-front configuration, and have
them do their best to find each other and form a cluster after a few seconds.
This change adds a delayed automatic bootstrapping process to nodes that start
up with no relevant settings set to support the desired out-of-the-box
experience without compromising safety in properly-configured deployments.
* Add deprecation warnings to `Rest*TermVectorsAction`, plus tests in `Rest*TermVectorsActionTests`.
* Deprecate relevant methods on the Java HLRC requests/ responses.
* Update documentation (for both the REST API and Java HLRC).
* For each REST yml test, create one version without types, and another legacy version that retains types (called *_with_types.yml).
This commit changes the format of the `hits.total` in the search response to be an object with
a `value` and a `relation`. The `value` indicates the number of hits that match the query and the
`relation` indicates whether the number is accurate (in which case the relation is equals to `eq`)
or a lower bound of the total (in which case it is equals to `gte`).
This change also adds a parameter called `rest_total_hits_as_int` that can be used in the
search APIs to opt out from this change (retrieve the total hits as a number in the rest response).
Note that currently all search responses are accurate (`track_total_hits: true`) or they don't contain
`hits.total` (`track_total_hits: true`). We'll add a way to get a lower bound of the total hits in a
follow up (to allow numbers to be passed to `track_total_hits`).
Relates #33028
The current response format is:
```
{
"pattern1": {
...
},
"pattern2": {
...
}
}
```
The new format is:
```
{
"patterns": [
{
"name": "pattern1",
"pattern": {
...
}
},
{
"name": "pattern2",
"pattern": {
...
}
}
]
}
```
This format is more structured and more friendly for parsing and generating specs.
This is a breaking change, but it is better to do this now while ccr
is still a beta feature than later.
Follow up from #36049
This change adds a soft limit to open scroll contexts that can be controlled with the dynamic cluster setting `search.max_open_scroll_context` (defaults to 500).
When building a query Lucene distinguishes two cases, queries that require to produce a score and queries that only need to match. We cloned this mechanism in the QueryBuilders in order to be able to produce different queries based on whether they need to produce a score or not. However the only case in es that require this distinction is the BoolQueryBuilder that sets a different minimum_should_match when a `bool` query is built in a filter context..
This behavior doesn't seem right because it makes the matching of `should` clauses different when the score is not required.
Closes#35293
The new limit on the number of open shards in a cluster may be
interpreted by users as a sizing recommendation, but it is not. This
clarifies in the documentation that this is a safety limit, not a
recommendation.
This commit documents how Index Lifecycle Management
interacts with snapshot/restore, and documents a workaround
for situations in which ILM should not immediately resume
managing an index after it is restored.
A number of tokenfilters can produce multiple tokens at the same position. This
is a problem when using token chains to parse synonym files, as the SynonymMap
requires that there are no stacked tokens in its input.
This commit ensures that when used to parse synonyms, these tokenfilters either produce
a single version of their input token, or that they throw an error when mappings are
generated. In indexes created in elasticsearch 6.x deprecation warnings are emitted in place
of the error.
* asciifolding and cjk_bigram produce only the folded or bigrammed token
* decompounders, synonyms and keyword_repeat are skipped
* n-grams, word-delimiter-filter, multiplexer, fingerprint and phonetic throw errors

* [Rollup] Add more diagnostic stats to job
To help debug future performance issues, this adds the
min/max/avg/count/total latencies (in milliseconds) for search
and bulk phase. This latency is the total service time including
transfer between nodes, not just the `took` time.
It also adds the count of search/bulk failures encountered during
runtime. This information is also in the log, but a runtime counter
will help expose problems faster

This removes the option to run a cluster without enforcing the
cluster-wide shard limit, making strict enforcement the default and only
behavior. The limit can still be adjusted as desired using the cluster
settings API.
Add GREATEST(expr1, expr2, ... exprN) and LEAST(expr1, expr2, exprN)
functions which are in the family of CONDITIONAL functions.
Implementation follows PostgreSQL behaviour, so the functions return
`NULL` when all of their arguments evaluate to `NULL`.
Renamed `CoalescePipe` and `CoalesceProcessor` to `ConditionalPipe` and
`ConditionalProcessor` respectively, to be able to reuse them for
`Greatest` and `Least` evaluations. To achieve that `ConditionalOperation`
has been added to differentiate between the functionalities at execution
time.

This operator handles nulls in different way than the normal `=`.
If one of the operants is `null` and the other not it returns `false`.
If both operants are `null` it returns `true`. Therefore in contrary to
`=`, which returns `null` if at least one of the operants is `null`, this one
never returns `null` as a result.
Closes: #35871
This endpoint was not previously documented as it was not
particularly useful to end users. However, since the HLRC
will support the endpoint we need some documentation to
link to.
The purpose of the endpoint is to provide defaults and
limits used by ML. These are needed to fully understand
configurations that have missing values because the missing
value means the default should be used.

The ICU plugin provides the building blocks of an analysis chain, but doesn't actually have a prebuilt analyzer. It would be a better for users if there was a simple analyzer that they could use out of the box, and also something we can point to from the CJK Analyzer docs as a superior alternative.

RolloverStep previously had a name of "attempt_rollover", which was

* Deprecate types in count requests.
* Move RestCountAction to the 'search' package.
* Deprecate types in multi search requests.
* Add tests for types deprecation in the _search endpoint.
RolloverAction will now periodically check the rollover conditions using
the Rollover API with the dry_run option as an AsyncWaitStep, then run
the rollover itself by calling the Rollover API with no conditions,
which will always roll over, as an AsyncActionStep. This will resolve
race condition issues in policies using RolloverAction.

The docs are not resilient to timing issues where the ILM metadata is not set on newly
created indices, so we shouldn't be so strict on the returned response
The documentation of `search_after` recommends to use the `_id`
field as a tiebreaker for the sort without warning against
the additional memory required. This change changes the recommandation
to use a copy of the `_id` field with doc_values enabled.
This adds a `wait_for_completion` flag which allows the user to block
the Stop API until the task has actually moved to a stopped state,
instead of returning immediately. If the flag is set, a `timeout` parameter
can be specified to determine how long (at max) to block the API
call. If unspecified, the timeout is 30s.
If the timeout is exceeded before the job moves to STOPPED, a
timeout exception is thrown. Note: this is just signifying that the API
call itself timed out. The job will remain in STOPPING and evenutally
flip over to STOPPED in the background.
If the user asks the API to block, we move over the the generic
threadpool so that we don't hold up a networking thread.

Today our OS information returned in node stats only returns a
high-level name of the OS (e.g., "Linux"). Yet, for some uses this is
too high-level and knowing at a finer level of granularity the
underlying OS can be useful. This commit extracts the pretty name on
Linux from /etc/os-release. This pretty name usually includes the Linux
vendor and the Linux vendor version number (e.g., Fedora 28).
Currently we introduced a hard limit of 1024 to the number of fields a query can
be expanded to in #26541. Instead of using a hard limit, we should make this
configurable. This change removes the hard limit check and uses the existing
`max_clause_count` setting instead.
Closes#34778
If the underlying mount point for the JNA temporary directory is mounted
noexec on Linux, then the JVM will not be able to map the native code in
as executable. This will prevent JNA from executing and will prevent
Elasticsearch from being able to execute some functions that rely on
native code (e.g., memory locking, and installing system call
filters). We do not want to get into the business of catching exceptions
and parsing messages towards this because these exception messages can
change on us. We also do not want to jump through a lot of hoops to
check the underlying mount point for noexec. Instead, we will rely on
documentation to address this problem. This commit adds to the important
system configuration section of the docs that the JNA temporary
directory is not on a mount point with the noexec mount option.
This commit uses the index settings version so that a follower can

Sometimes users are confused about whether they can use the Convert Processor
for changing an existing fields type to other types even if the existing one is already
ingested. This confusion is from the first line of description. Changing this and also
adding a some detail to the code snippet.
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`.
We've decided that the bulk, delete, get, index, update, and search APIs should not
contain this request parameter, and we will instead accept both typed and typeless calls.
