This is a follow up to a previous commit that renamed MetaData to
Metadata in all of the places. In that commit in master, we renamed
META_DATA to METADATA, but lost this on the backport. This commit
addresses that.
This is a simple naming change PR, to fix the fact that "metadata" is a
single English word, and for too long we have not followed general
naming conventions for it. We are also not consistent about it, for
example, METADATA instead of META_DATA if we were trying to be
consistent with MetaData (although METADATA is correct when considered
in the context of "metadata"). This was a simple find and replace across
the code base, only taking a few minutes to fix this naming issue
forever.

In order to prepare the `AliasOrIndex` abstraction for the introduction of data streams,
the abstraction needs to be made more flexible, because currently it really can be only
an alias or an index.
* Renamed `AliasOrIndex` to `IndexAbstraction`.
* Introduced a `IndexAbstraction.Type` enum to indicate what a `IndexAbstraction` instance is.
* Replaced the `isAlias()` method that returns a boolean with the `getType()` method that returns the new Type enum.
* Moved `getWriteIndex()` up from the `IndexAbstraction.Alias` to the `IndexAbstraction` interface.
* Moved `getAliasName()` up from the `IndexAbstraction.Alias` to the `IndexAbstraction` interface and renamed it to `getName()`.
* Removed unnecessary casting to `IndexAbstraction.Alias` by just checking the `getType()` method.

Today the security plugin stashes a copy of the environment in its
constructor, and uses the stashed copy to construct its components even
though it is provided with an environment to create these
components. What is more, the environment it creates in its constructor
is not fully initialized, as it does not have the final copy of the
settings, but the environment passed in while creating components
does. This commit removes that stashed copy of the environment.
Currently all of our transport protocol decoding and aggregation occurs
in the individual transport modules. This means that each implementation
(test, netty, nio) must implement this logic. Additionally, it means
that the entire message has been read from the network before the server
package receives it.
This commit creates a pipeline in server which can be passed arbitrary
bytes to handle. Internally, the pipeline will decode, decompress, and
aggregate the messages. Additionally, this allows us to run many
megabytes of bytes through the pipeline in tests to ensure that the
logic works.
This work will enable future work:
Circuit breaking or backoff logic based on message type and byte
in the content aggregator.
Sharing bytes with the application layer using the ref counted
releasable network bytes.
Improved network monitoring based specifically on channels.
Finally, this fixes the bug where we do not circuit break on the correct
message size when compression is enabled.
Changes ThreadPool's schedule method to run the schedule task in the context of the thread
that scheduled the task.
This is the more sensible default for this method, and eliminates a range of bugs where the
current thread context is mistakenly dropped.

Xpack license state contains a helper method to determine whether
security is disabled due to license level defaults. Most code needs to
know whether security is enabled, not disabled, but this method exists
so that the security being explicitly disabled can be distinguished from
licence level defaulting to disabled. However, in the case that security
is explicitly disabled, the handlers in question are never registered,
so security is implicitly not disabled explicitly, and thus we can share
a single method to know whether licensing is enabled.
This change merges the "feature-internal-idp" branch into Elasticsearch.
This introduces a small identity-provider plugin as a child of the x-pack module.
This allows ES to act as a SAML IdP, for users who are authenticated against the
Elasticsearch cluster.
This feature is intended for internal use within Elastic Cloud environments
and is not supported for any other use case. It falls under an enterprise license tier.
The IdP is disabled by default.

Role names are now compiled from role templates before role mapping is saved.
This serves as validation for role templates to prevent malformed and invalid scripts
to be persisted, which could later break authentication.

This commit removes the configuration time vs execution time distinction
with regards to certain BuildParms properties. Because of the cost of
determining Java versions for configuration JDK locations we deferred
this until execution time. This had two main downsides. First, we had
to implement all this build logic in tasks, which required a bunch of
additional plumbing and complexity. Second, because some information
wasn't known during configuration time, we had to nest any build logic
that depended on this in awkward callbacks.
We now defer to the JavaInstallationRegistry recently added in Gradle.
This utility uses a much more efficient method for probing Java
installations vs our jrunscript implementation. This, combined with some
optimizations to avoid probing the current JVM as well as deferring
some evaluation via Providers when probing installations for BWC builds
we can maintain effectively the same configuration time performance
while removing a bunch of complexity and runtime cost (snapshotting
inputs for the GenerateGlobalBuildInfoTask was very expensive). The end
result should be a much more responsive build execution in almost all
scenarios.

This change adds a "grant API key action"
POST /_security/api_key/grant
that creates a new API key using the privileges of one user ("the
system user") to execute the action, but creates the API key with
the roles of the second user ("the end user").
This allows a system (such as Kibana) to create API keys representing
the identity and access of an authenticated user without requiring
that user to have permission to create API keys on their own.
This also creates a new QA project for security on trial licenses and runs
the API key tests there
Backport of: #52886
This change adds a new exception with consistent metadata for when

In xpack the license state contains methods to determine whether a
particular feature is allowed to be used. The one exception is
allowsRealmTypes() which returns an enum of the types of realms allowed.
This change converts the enum values to boolean methods. There are 2
notable changes: NONE is removed as we always fall back to basic license
behavior, and NATIVE is not needed because it would always return true
since we should always have a basic license.
It's simple to deprecate a field used in an ObjectParser just by adding deprecation
markers to the relevant ParseField objects. The warnings themselves don't currently
have any context - they simply say that a deprecated field has been used, but not
where in the input xcontent it appears. This commit adds the parent object parser
name and XContentLocation to these deprecation messages.
Note that the context is automatically stripped from warning messages when they
are asserted on by integration tests and REST tests, because randomization of
xcontent type during these tests means that the XContentLocation is not constant
The AuditTrailService has historically been an AuditTrail itself, acting
as a composite of the configured audit trails. This commit removes that
interface from the service and instead builds a composite delegating
implementation internally. The service now has a single get() method to
get an AuditTrail implementation which may be called. If auditing is not
allowed by the license, an empty noop version is returned.
Sometimes we want to deprecate and remove a ParseField entirely, without replacement;
for example, the various places where we specify a _type field in 7x. Currently we can
tell users only that a particular field name should not be used, and that another name should
be used in its place. This commit adds the ability to say that a field should not be used at
all.
Password changes are only allowed when the user is currently
authenticated by a realm (that permits the password to be changed)
and not when authenticated by a bearer token or an API key.
The current implicit behaviour is that when an API keys is used to create another API key,
the child key is created without any privilege. This implicit behaviour is surprising and is
a source of confusion for users.
This change makes that behaviour explicit.
If security was disabled (explicitly), then the SecurityContext would
be null, but the set_security_user processor was still registered.
Attempting to define a pipeline that used that processor would fail
with an (intentional) NPE. This behaviour, introduced in #52032, is a
regression from previous releases where the pipeline was allowed, but
was no usable.
This change restores the previous behaviour (with a new warning).
Backport of: #52691
This change introduces a new API in x-pack basic that allows to track the progress of a search.
Users can submit an asynchronous search through a new endpoint called `_async_search` that
works exactly the same as the `_search` endpoint but instead of blocking and returning the final response when available, it returns a response after a provided `wait_for_completion` time.
````
GET my_index_pattern*/_async_search?wait_for_completion=100ms
{
"aggs": {
"date_histogram": {
"field": "@timestamp",
"fixed_interval": "1h"
}
}
}
````
If after 100ms the final response is not available, a `partial_response` is included in the body:
````
{
"id": "9N3J1m4BgyzUDzqgC15b",
"version": 1,
"is_running": true,
"is_partial": true,
"response": {
"_shards": {
"total": 100,
"successful": 5,
"failed": 0
},
"total_hits": {
"value": 1653433,
"relation": "eq"
},
"aggs": {
...
}
}
}
````
The partial response contains the total number of requested shards, the number of shards that successfully returned and the number of shards that failed.
It also contains the total hits as well as partial aggregations computed from the successful shards.
To continue to monitor the progress of the search users can call the get `_async_search` API like the following:
````
GET _async_search/9N3J1m4BgyzUDzqgC15b/?wait_for_completion=100ms
````
That returns a new response that can contain the same partial response than the previous call if the search didn't progress, in such case the returned `version`
should be the same. If new partial results are available, the version is incremented and the `partial_response` contains the updated progress.
Finally if the response is fully available while or after waiting for completion, the `partial_response` is replaced by a `response` section that contains the usual _search response:
````
{
"id": "9N3J1m4BgyzUDzqgC15b",
"version": 10,
"is_running": false,
"response": {
"is_partial": false,
...
}
}
````
Asynchronous search are stored in a restricted index called `.async-search` if they survive (still running) after the initial submit. Each request has a keep alive that defaults to 5 days but this value can be changed/updated any time:
`````
GET my_index_pattern*/_async_search?wait_for_completion=100ms&keep_alive=10d
`````
The default can be changed when submitting the search, the example above raises the default value for the search to `10d`.
`````
GET _async_search/9N3J1m4BgyzUDzqgC15b/?wait_for_completion=100ms&keep_alive=10d
`````
The time to live for a specific search can be extended when getting the progress/result. In the example above we extend the keep alive to 10 more days.
A background service that runs only on the node that holds the first primary shard of the `async-search` index is responsible for deleting the expired results. It runs every hour but the expiration is also checked by running queries (if they take longer than the keep_alive) and when getting a result.
Like a normal `_search`, if the http channel that is used to submit a request is closed before getting a response, the search is automatically cancelled. Note that this behavior is only for the submit API, subsequent GET requests will not cancel if they are closed.
Asynchronous search are not persistent, if the coordinator node crashes or is restarted during the search, the asynchronous search will stop. To know if the search is still running or not the response contains a field called `is_running` that indicates if the task is up or not. It is the responsibility of the user to resume an asynchronous search that didn't reach a final response by re-submitting the query. However final responses and failures are persisted in a system index that allows
to retrieve a response even if the task finishes.
````
DELETE _async_search/9N3J1m4BgyzUDzqgC15b
````
The response is also not stored if the initial submit action returns a final response. This allows to not add any overhead to queries that completes within the initial `wait_for_completion`.
The `.async-search` index is a restricted index (should be migrated to a system index in +8.0) that is accessible only through the async search APIs. These APIs also ensure that only the user that submitted the initial query can retrieve or delete the running search. Note that admins/superusers would still be able to cancel the search task through the task manager like any other tasks.

This change makes it possible to send secondary authentication
credentials to select endpoints that need to perform a single action
in the context of two users.
Typically this need arises when a server process needs to call an
endpoint that users should not (or might not) have direct access to,
but some part of that action must be performed using the logged-in
user's identity.

Using a Long alone is not strong enough for the id of search contexts
because we reset the id generator whenever a data node is restarted.
This can lead to two issues:
1. Fetch phase can fetch documents from another index
2. A scroll search can return documents from another index
This commit avoids these issues by adding a UUID to SearchContexId.
This commit changes the Get Aliases API to include hidden indices by
default - this is slightly different from other APIs, but is necessary
to make this API work intuitively.
This commit introduces hidden aliases. These are similar to hidden
indices, in that they are not visible by default, unless explicitly
specified by name or by indicating that hidden indices/aliases are
desired.
The new alias property, `is_hidden` is implemented similarly to
`is_write_index`, except that it must be consistent across all indices
with a given alias - that is, all indices with a given alias must
specify the alias as either hidden, or all specify it as non-hidden,
either explicitly or by omitting the `is_hidden` property.
This commit introduces a module for Kibana that exposes REST APIs that
will be used by Kibana for access to its system indices. These APIs are wrapped
versions of the existing REST endpoints. A new setting is also introduced since
the Kibana system indices' names are allowed to be changed by a user in case
multiple instances of Kibana use the same instance of Elasticsearch.
Additionally, the ThreadContext has been extended to indicate that the use of
system indices may be allowed in a request. This will be built upon in the future
for the protection of system indices.

* Smarter copying of the rest specs and tests (#52114)
This PR addresses the unnecessary copying of the rest specs and allows
for better semantics for which specs and tests are copied. By default
the rest specs will get copied if the project applies
`elasticsearch.standalone-rest-test` or `esplugin` and the project
has rest tests or you configure the custom extension `restResources`.
This PR also removes the need for dozens of places where the x-pack
specs were copied by supporting copying of the x-pack rest specs too.
The plugin/task introduced here can also copy the rest tests to the
local project through a similar configuration.
The new plugin/task allows a user to minimize the surface area of
which rest specs are copied. Per project can be configured to include
only a subset of the specs (or tests). Configuring a project to only
copy the specs when actually needed should help with build cache hit
rates since we can better define what is actually in use.
However, project level optimizations for build cache hit rates are
not included with this PR.
Also, with this PR you can no longer use the includePackaged flag on
integTest task.
The following items are included in this PR:
* new plugin: `elasticsearch.rest-resources`
* new tasks: CopyRestApiTask and CopyRestTestsTask - performs the copy
* new extension 'restResources'
```
restResources {
restApi {
includeCore 'foo' , 'bar' //will include the core specs that start with foo and bar
includeXpack 'baz' //will include x-pack specs that start with baz
}
restTests {
includeCore 'foo', 'bar' //will include the core tests that start with foo and bar
includeXpack 'baz' //will include the x-pack tests that start with baz
}
}

Add enterprise operation mode to properly map enterprise license.
Aslo refactor XPackLicenstate class to consolidate license status and mode checks.
This class has many sychronised methods to check basically three things:
* Minimum operation mode required
* Whether security is enabled
* Whether current license needs to be active
Depends on the actual feature, either 1, 2 or all of above checks are performed.
These are now consolidated in to 3 helper methods (2 of them are new).
The synchronization is pushed down to the helper methods so actual checking
methods no longer need to worry about it.

Currently we used the secure random number generate when generating http
request ids in the security AuditUtil. We do not need to be using this
level of randomness for this use case. Additionally, this random number
generator involves locking that blocks the http worker threads at high
concurrency loads.
This commit modifies this randomness generator to use our reproducible
randomness generator for Elasticsearch. This generator will fall back to
thread local random when used in production.
This is useful in cases where the caller of the API needs to know
the name of the realm that consumed the SAML Response and
authenticated the user and this is not self evident (i.e. because
there are many saml realms defined in ES).
Currently, the way to learn the realm name would be to make a
subsequent request to the `_authenticate` API.
ML mappings and index templates have so far been created
programmatically. While this had its merits due to static typing,
there is consensus it would be clear to maintain those in json files.
In addition, we are going to adding ILM policies to these indices
and the component for a plugin to register ILM policies is
`IndexTemplateRegistry`. It expects the templates to be in resource
json files.
For the above reasons this commit refactors ML mappings and index
templates into json resource files that are registered via
`MlIndexTemplateRegistry`.
