The windows service script does a little munging of the parsed JVM
option string, converting whitespaces to semicolons. We recently added
an optional Java 14 JDK flag to our system JVM flags. On earlier JDKs,
the windows service batch script would encounter a double whitespace
when this option was missing and convert it into double semicolons.
Double semicolons, in turn, don't work in the arguments to the windows
service command, and led to a lot of JVM options being dropped,
including "es.path.conf", which is required for startup.
This commit puts in a double defense. First, it removes any empty-string
options from the system options list in the Java Options Parser code.
Second, it munges out double semicolons if they do appear in the parsed
option output.

Currently forbidden apis accounts for 800+ tasks in the build. These
tasks are aggressively created by the plugin. In forbidden apis 3.0, we
will get task avoidance
(https://github.com/policeman-tools/forbidden-apis/pull/162), but we
need to ourselves use the same task avoidance mechanisms to not trigger
these task creations. This commit does that for our foribdden apis
usages, in preparation for upgrading to 3.0 when it is released.
Now that JDK 14 is available, and we are bundling it, this commit
enables us to run with helpful null pointer exceptions, which will be a
great aid in debugging.
Change how we format exceptions to only wrap them as necessary. While
the config's overall philosophy is to put items one-per-line when
wrapping, in practice this is a little cumbersome for exception lists.
This commit introduces aarch64 packaging, including bundling an aarch64
JDK distribution. We had to make some interesting choices here:
- ML binaries are not compiled for aarch64, so for now we disable ML on
aarch64
- depending on underlying page sizes, we have to disable class data
sharing
Back when the distribution launchers were compiled to target JDK 7, we
did not have access to the String#join method to space-delimit JVM
options. Since the launchers now target the same minimum JDK as
Elasticsearch itself, we now have access to this method and can replace
the use of spaceDelimitJvmOptions with String#join. This commit does
that.
This commit prepares the JvmOptionsParser to be more unit testable by
refactoring the class to have some input that it pulls from external
sources passed in as arguments. We do not change any functionality in
this commit, nor add any unit tests, we are only preparing the way.
This commit introduces the ability to override JVM options by adding
custom JVM options files to a jvm.options.d directory. This simplifies
administration of Elasticsearch by not requiring administrators to keep
the root jvm.options file in sync with changes that we make to the root
jvm.options file. Instead, they are not expected to modify this file but
instead supply their own in jvm.options.d. In Docker installations, this
means they can bind mount this directory in. In future versions of
Elasticsearch, we can consider removing the root jvm.options file
(instead, providing all options there as system JVM options).
This change changes the way to run our test suites in
JVMs configured in FIPS 140 approved mode. It does so by:
- Configuring any given runtime Java in FIPS mode with the bundled
policy and security properties files, setting the system
properties java.security.properties and java.security.policy
with the == operator that overrides the default JVM properties
and policy.
- When runtime java is 11 and higher, using BouncyCastle FIPS
Cryptographic provider and BCJSSE in FIPS mode. These are
used as testRuntime dependencies for unit
tests and internal clusters, and copied (relevant jars)
explicitly to the lib directory for testclusters used in REST tests
- When runtime java is 8, using BouncyCastle FIPS
Cryptographic provider and SunJSSE in FIPS mode.
Running the tests in FIPS 140 approved mode doesn't require an
additional configuration either in CI workers or locally and is
controlled by specifying -Dtests.fips.enabled=true

* Always pass user-specified MaxDirectMemorySize
We had been testing whether a user had passed a value for
MaxDirectMemorySize by parsing the output of "java -XX:PrintFlagsFinal
-version". If MaxDirectMemorySize equals zero, we set it to half of max
heap. The problem is that on Windows with JDK 8, a JDK bug incorrectly
truncates values over 4g and returns multiples of 4g as zero. In order
to always respect the user-defined settings, we need to check our input
to see if an "-XX:MaxDirectMemorySize" value has been passed.
* Always warn for Windows/jdk8 ergo issue
Even if a user has set MaxDirectMemorySize, they aren't future-proof for
this JDK bug. With this change, we issue a general warning for the
windows/JDK8 issue, and a specific warning if MaxDirectMemorySize is
unset.
This commit moves JVM options that we are setting on behalf of the user
that we do not expect them to fiddle with out of the jvm.options
configuration file and into the JVM options parser. In this way, we
discourage fiddling with these settings, but more importantly, we ensure
that as we evolve or add to these settings that a user would pick these
pick instead of being left behind if they have a modified jvm.options
file and do not pick any new that come with the distribution.
Our JVM ergonomics extract max heap size from JDK PrintFlagsFinal output.
On JDK 8, there is a system-dependent bug where memory sizes are cast to
32-bit integers. On affected systems (namely, Windows), when 1/4 of physical
memory is more than the maximum integer value, the output of PrintFlagsFinal
will be inaccurate. In the pathological case, where the max heap size would
be a multiple of 4g, the test will fail.
The practical effect of this bug, beyond test failures, is that we may set
MaxDirectMemorySize to an incorrect value on Windows. This commit adds a
warning about this situation during startup.
This commit removes the option to change the netty system properties to
reenable the direct buffer pooling. It also removes the need for us to
disable the buffer pooling in the system properties file. Instead, we
programmatically craete an allocator that is used by our networking
layer.
This commit does introduce an Elasticsearch property which allows the
user to fallback on the netty default allocator. If they choose this
option, they can configure the default allocator how they wish using the
standard netty properties.
This test has been failing very frequently on Windows checks for 7.4. We've also seen it for 7.x as well as for the new 7.5 tests. I'm muting during investigation so we can see if this is masking any other issues.
Compilation was accidentally broken here when a backport used code from
JDK 9, which is not supported in 7.x. This commit addresses this by
using JDK 8 compatiable APIs.
This commit moves the ES_TMPDIR substitution that we do for JVM options
into the JVM options parser itself. This solves a problem where the fact
that the we do not make the substitution before ergonomics parsing can
lead to the JVM that we start for computing the ergonomic values failing
to start. Additionally, moving this substitution here enables us to
simplify the shell scripts since we do not need to implement this there,
and twice for Bash and Windows.
We currently configure io.netty.allocator.numDirectArenas to be 0 in the
jvm erconomics class. This is a config that we always want to set, so it
makes sense to move it to jvm.options.
Elasticsearch does not grant Netty reflection access to get Unsafe. The
only mechanism that currently exists to free direct buffers in a timely
manner is to use Unsafe. This leads to the occasional scenario, under
heavy network load, that direct byte buffers can slowly build up without
being freed.
This commit disables Netty direct buffer pooling and moves to a strategy
of using a single thread-local direct buffer for interfacing with sockets.
This will reduce the memory usage from networking. Elasticsearch
currently derives very little value from direct buffer usage (TLS,
compression, Lucene, Elasticsearch handling, etc all use heap bytes). So
this seems like the correct trade-off until that changes.

Java 8 presents the JVM options slightly differently when displaying via
-XX:+PrintFlagsFinal. This commit adapts the JVM options parser for this
possibility.
Relates #42009
This commit removes manual parsing of JVM options when calculating
ergonomics. This is to avoid a situation that we parse values
differently than the JVM would. In fact, we already have a bug along
these lines today. It is possible to start the JVM with the same flag
multiple times on the command line. In this case, the last value
wins. For example, -Xmx1g -Xmx2g would start the JVM with a heap size of
two gigabytes. Our JVM ergonomics ignores this possibility and instead
the first value is winning!
Our strategy to avoid manual parsing of the JVM options is to start the
Java command line parser (without actually starting a JVM) by invoking
java with the same command line flags as presented and request that the
JVM tell us what values it would start with. This ensures that we have
the correct values when making ergonomic decisions.
Moreover, our strategy also is ignoring ES_JAVA_OPTS which could
override the heap size as well leading to incorrect ergonomic
choices. This commit address this issue too.
hamcrest has some improvements in newer versions, like FileMatchers
that make assertions regarding file exists cleaner. This commit upgrades
to the latest version of hamcrest so we can start using new and improved
matchers.
* Testing conventions now checks for tests in main

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.
With this commit we add the possibility to define further JVM options (and
system properties) based on the current environment. As a proof of concept, it
chooses Netty's allocator ergonomically based on the maximum defined heap size.
We switch to the unpooled allocator at 1GB heap size (value determined
experimentally, see #30684 for more details). We are also explicit about the
choice of the allocator in either case.

The java version checker requires being written with java 7 APIs.
In order to use java 8 apis in other launcher utilities, this commit
moves the java version checker back to its own jar.
We no longer need animal sniffer because we use JDK functionality
(introduced in JDK 9) to target older versions of the JDK for
compilation. This functionality means that the JDK handles the problem
of ensuring that we do not use JDK APIs from the version that we are
compiling from that are not available in the version that we are
compiling to. A previous commit removed this for the REST client (where
we target JDK 7) but a few traces were left behind.
This commit reorganizes some of the content in the configuring
Elasticsearch section of the docs. The changes are:
- move JVM options out of system configuration into configuring
Elasticsearch
- move JVM options to its own page of the docs
- move configuring the heap to important Elasticsearch settings
- move configuring the heap to its own page of the docs
- move all important settings to individual pages in the docs
- remove bootstrap.memory_lock from important settings, this is covered
in the swap section of system configuration

JDK 9 has removed JVM options that were valid in JDK 8 (e.g., GC logging
flags) and replaced them with new flags that are not available in JDK
8. This means that a single JVM options file can no longer apply to JDK
8 and JDK 9, complicating development, complicating our packaging story,
and complicating operations. This commit extends the JVM options syntax
to specify the range of versions the option applies to. If the running
JVM matches the range of versions, the flag will be used to start the
JVM otherwise the flag will be ignored.
We implement this parser in Java for simplicity, and with this we start
our first step towards a Java launcher.
