Adds an important admonition for the built-in `metrics-*-*` and `logs-*-*` index
templates.
Updates several put index template snippets to include a priority.
Followup to #60216, fixing the formatting of
`transport.tcp.reuse_address` and clarifying some wording around the
distinction between the transport and HTTP layers.
Changes:
* Moves "Notes" sections for the joining queries and percolate query
pages to the parent page
* Adds related redirects for the moved "Notes" pages
* Assigns explicit anchor IDs to other "Notes" headings. This was required for
the redirects to work.
This adds a frozen phase to ILM that will allow the execution of the
set_priority, unfollow, allocate, freeze and searchable_snapshot actions.
The frozen phase will be executed after the cold and before the delete phase.

Elasticsearch currently blocks writes by default when a master is unavailable. The cluster.no_master_block setting allows
a user to change this behavior to also block reads when a master is unavailable. This PR introduces a way to now also still
allow writes when a master is offline. Writes will continue to work as long as routing table changes are not needed (as
those require the master for consistency), or if dynamic mapping updates are not required (as again, these require the
master for consistency).
Eventually we should switch the default of cluster.no_master_block to this new mode.
This commit introduces a new thread pool, `system_read`, which is
intended for use by system indices for all read operations (get and
search). The `system_read` pool is a fixed thread pool with a maximum
number of threads equal to lesser of half of the available processors
or 5. Given the combination of both get and read operations in this
thread pool, the queue size has been set to 2000. The motivation for
this change is to allow system read operations to be serviced in spite
of the number of user searches.
In order to avoid a significant performance hit due to pattern matching
on all search requests, a new metadata flag is added to mark indices
as system or non-system. Previously created system indices will have
flag added to their metadata upon upgrade to a version with this
capability.
Additionally, this change also introduces a new class, `SystemIndices`,
which encapsulates logic around system indices. Currently, the class
provides a method to check if an index is a system index and a method
to find a matching index descriptor given the name of an index.

Split the autoscaling decider into a service and configuration
in order to enable having additional context information available
in the service. Added AutoscalingDeciderContext holding generic
information all deciders are expected to need. Implemented GET

There is no point in timing out a join attempt any more once a cluster
is entirely in 7.x. Timing out and retrying with the same master is
pointless, and an in-flight join attempt to one master no longer blocks
attempts to join other masters. This commit deprecates this unnecessary
setting and removes its effect from the joining process.
Relates #60873 which removes this setting in master.
This adds a force-merge step to the searchable snapshot action, enabled by default,
but parameterizable using the `force_merge-index" optional boolean.
eg.
```
PUT _ilm/policy/my_policy
{
"policy": {
"phases": {
"cold": {
"actions": {
"searchable_snapshot" : {
"snapshot_repository" : "backing_repo",
"force_merge_index": true
}
}
}
}
}
}
```

This commit makes IpFieldMapper extend ParametrizedFieldMapper. It also
updates the IpFieldMapper docs to add the ignore_malformed parameter,
which was not previously documented.
Changes:
* Moves `Retrieve selected fields` to its own page and adds a title abbreviation.
* Adds existing script and stored fields content to `Retrieve selected fields`
* Adds a xref for `Retrieve selected fields` to `Search your data`
* Adds related redirects and updates existing xrefs
Uses `my-data-stream` in place of `logs` for data stream examples.
This provides a more intuitive experience for users that copy/paste
their own values into snippets.
Changes:
* Moves sample data to reusable rest test
* Combines EQL index, requirements, and run a search pages
* Combines EQL syntax and limitations pages
* Adds related redirects
The current `tee` command appends a definition to
`/etc/apt/sources.list.d/elastic-{version}.list`.
This can lead to duplicate lines and significantly slow apt-get
operations.
This updates the command to overwrite rather than append.
This commit fixes the list dangling indices response.
The dangling_indices array is an array of objects
that represent aggregated dangling index information

Plugin discovery documentation contained information about installing
Elasticsearch 2.0 and installing an oracle JDK, both of which is no
longer valid.
While noticing that the instructions used cleartext HTTP to install
packages, this commit replaces HTTPs links instead of HTTP where possible.
In addition a few community links have been removed, as they do not seem
to exist anymore.

* SQL: Add option to provide the delimiter for the CSV format (#59907)
* Add option to provide the delimiter to the CSV fmt
This adds the option to provide the desired character as the separator
for the CSV format (the default remains comma).
A set of characters are excluded though - like CR, LF, `"` - to avoid
slipping onto the CSV-dialects slope. The tab is also forbidden, the
user needs to choose the "tsv" format explicitely.
Update the doc to make it clear that the textual CSV, TSV and TXT
formats pass the cursor back to the user through the Cursor HTTP header.

* Java8 fixes
- replace Set#of();
- URLDecoder#decode() requires a string (vs a charset) as 2nd arg.
Changes:

* Updates the split API docs to mention that `number_of_routing_shards`
is a static setting.
Today there are a few places in the transport layer docs where we talk
about communication between nodes _within a cluster_. We also use the
transport layer for remote cluster connections, and these statements
also apply there, but this is not clear from today's docs. This commit
generalises these statements to make it clear that they apply to remote
cluster connections too.
It also adds a link from the docs on configuring TCP retries to the
(deeply-buried) docs on preserving long-lived connections.
This feature adds a new `fields` parameter to the search request, which
consults both the document `_source` and the mappings to fetch fields in a
consistent way. The PR merges the `field-retrieval` feature branch.
Addresses #49028 and #55363.
Transport connections between nodes remain in place until one or other
node shuts down or the connection is disrupted by a flaky network.
Today it is very difficult to demonstrate that transient failures and
cluster instability are caused by the network even though this is often
the case. In particular, transport connections open and close without
logging anything, even at `DEBUG` level, making it very hard to quantify
the scale of the problem or to correlate the networking problems with
external events.
This commit adds the missing `DEBUG`-level logging when transport
connections open and close, and also tracks the total number of
transport connections a node has opened as a measure of the stability of
the underlying network.
* Adds table with icons for simplicity.
* Updating table for clarity.
* Changing table formatting and incorporating more feedback.
* Changing table alignment.
Keepalive options are not well-documented (only in transport section, although also available at http and network level).

keepalives tell any intermediate devices that the connection remains alive, which helps with overzealous firewalls that are
killing idle connections. keepalives are enabled by default in Elasticsearch, but use system defaults for their
configuration, which often times do not have reasonable defaults (e.g. 7200s for TCP_KEEP_IDLE) in the context of
distributed systems such as Elasticsearch.
This PR sets the socket-level keep_alive options for network.tcp.{keep_idle,keep_interval} to 5 minutes on configurations
that support it (>= Java 11 & (MacOS || Linux)) and where the system defaults are set to something higher than 5
minutes. This helps keep the connections alive while not interfering with system defaults or user-specified settings
unless they are deemed to be set too high by providing better out-of-the-box defaults.
