Today we go to heroic lengths to workaround bugs in the JDK or around
issues like BSD jails to get information about the underlying file
store. For example, we went to lengths to work around a JDK bug where
the file store returned would incorrectly report whether or not a path
is writable in certain situations in Windows operating
systems. Another bug prevented getting file store information on
Windows on a virtual drive on Windows. We no longer need to work
around these bugs, we could simply try to write to disk and let an I/O
exception arise if we could not write to the disk or take advantage of
the fact that these bugs are fixed in recent releases of the JDK
(e.g., the file store bug is fixed since 8u72). Additionally, we
collected information about all file stores on the system which meant
that if the user had a stale NFS mount, Elasticsearch could hang and
fail on startup if that mount point was not available. Finally, we
collected information through Lucene about whether or not a disk was a
spinning disk versus an SSD, information that we do not need since we
assume SSDs by default. This commit takes into consideration that we
simply do not need this heroic effort, we do not need information
about all file stores, and we do not need information about whether or
not a disk spins to greatly simplfy file store handling.

Open/Close index api have allow_no_indices set to false by default, while delete index has it set to true. The flag controls where a wildcard expression that matches no indices will be ignored or an error will be thrown instead. This commit aligns open/close default behaviour to that of delete index.
This change makes the request builder code-path same as `Client#execute`. The request builder used to return a `ListenableActionFuture` when calling execute, which allows to associate listeners with the returned future. For async execution though it is recommended to use the `execute` method that accepts an `ActionListener`, like users would do when using `Client#execute`.

The `count` value in the stats aggregation represents a simple doc count
that doesn't require a formatted version. We didn't render an "as_string"
version for count in the rest response, so the method should also be
removed in favour of just using String.valueOf(getCount()) if a string
version of the count is needed.
Closes#24287
This commit removes the deprecated cloud.aws.* settings. It also removes
backcompat for specifying `discovery.type: ec2`, and unused aws signer
code which was removed in a previous PR.
We want to upgrade to Lucene 7 ahead of time in order to be able to check whether it causes any trouble to Elasticsearch before Lucene 7.0 gets released. From a user perspective, the main benefit of this upgrade is the enhanced support for sparse fields, whose resource consumption is now function of the number of docs that have a value rather than the total number of docs in the index.
Some notes about the change:
- it includes the deprecation of the `disable_coord` parameter of the `bool` and `common_terms` queries: Lucene has removed support for coord factors
- it includes the deprecation of the `index.similarity.base` expert setting, since it was only useful to configure coords and query norms, which have both been removed
- two tests have been marked with `@AwaitsFix` because of #23966, which we intend to address after the merge

Today we have multiple ways to define settings when a user needs to create a repository:
* in `elasticsearch.yml` file using `repositories.azure` prefix

This commit enforces the requirement of Content-Type for the REST layer and removes the deprecated methods in transport
requests and their usages.
While doing this, it turns out that there are many places where *Entity classes are used from the apache http client
libraries and many of these usages did not specify the content type. The methods that do not specify a content type
explicitly have been added to forbidden apis to prevent more of these from entering our code base.

Since `_all` is now deprecated and cannot be set for new indices, we should also

Resolves#22923
This changes the way that replica failures are handled such that not all
failures will cause the replica shard to be failed or marked as stale.
In some cases such as refresh operations, or global checkpoint syncs, it is
"okay" for the operation to fail without the shard being failed (because no data
is out of sync). In these cases, instead of failing the shard we should simply
fail the operation, and, in the event it is a user-facing operation, return a
5xx response code including the shard-specific failures.
This was accomplished by having two forms of the `Replicas` proxy, one that is
for non-write operations that does not fail the shard, and one that is for write
operations that will fail the shard when an operation fails.

It was accidentally renamed `enabled_position_increment` in the cleanups
for 5.0. This adds `enable_position_increment` as a deprecated alias
so it will continue to work.
This commit removes the following queries and parameters (which were deprecated in 5.0):
* GeoPointDistanceRangeQuery
* coerce, and ignore_malformed for GeoBoundingBoxQuery, GeoDistanceQuery, GeoPolygonQuery, and GeoDistanceSort
This change adds a strict mode for xcontent parsing on the rest layer. The strict mode will be off by default for 5.x and in a separate commit will be enabled by default for 6.0. The strict mode, which can be enabled by setting `http.content_type.required: true` in 5.x, will require that all incoming rest requests have a valid and supported content type header before the request is dispatched. In the non-strict mode, the Content-Type header will be inspected and if it is not present or not valid, we will continue with auto detection of content like we have done previously.
The content type header is parsed to the matching XContentType value with the only exception being for plain text requests. This value is then passed on with the content bytes so that we can reduce the number of places where we need to auto-detect the content type.
As part of this, many transport requests and builders were updated to provide methods that
accepted the XContentType along with the bytes and the methods that would rely on auto-detection have been deprecated.
In the non-strict mode, deprecation warnings are issued whenever a request with body doesn't provide the Content-Type header.

Currently both ProfileResult and CollectorResult print the time field in a human readable string format
(e.g. "time": "55.20315000ms"). When trying to parse this back to a long value, for example to use in
the planned high level java rest client, we can lose precision because of conversion and rounding issues.
This change adds a new additional field (`time_in_nanos`) to the profile response to be able to get the
original time value in nanoseconds back.
The old `time` field is only printed when the `?`human=true` flag in the url is set. This follow the behaviour for
all other stats-related apis. Also the format of the `time` field is slightly changed. Instead of always formatting
the output as a 10-digit ms value, by using the `XContentBuilder#timeValueField()` method we now print
the largest time unit present is used (e.g. "s", "ms", "micros").
This change disables the _all meta field by default.
Now that we have the "all-fields" method of query execution, we can save both
indexing time and disk space by disabling it.
_all can no longer be configured for indices created after 6.0.

With this commit we change the data type of the 'TIMESTAMP'
meta-data field from a formatted date string to a plain
`java.util.Date` instance. The main reason for this change is
that our benchmarks have indicated that this contributes
significantly to the time spent in the ingest pipeline.
The overhead in terms of indexing throughput of the ingest
pipeline is about 15% and breaks down roughly as follows:
* 5% overhead caused by the conversion from `XContent` -> `Map`
* 5% overhead caused by the timestamp formatting
* 5% overhead caused by the conversion `Map` -> `XContent`

With this commit we enable the Jackson feature 'STRICT_DUPLICATE_DETECTION'
by default. This ensures that JSON keys are always unique. While this has
a performance impact, benchmarking has indicated that the typical drop in
indexing throughput is around 1 - 2%.
As a last resort, we allow users to still disable strict duplicate checks
by setting `-Des.json.strict_duplicate_detection=false` which is
intentionally undocumented.

When using dynamic templates, ES will now throw an exception if a

Our query DSL supports empty queries (`{}`), which have a different meaning depending on the query that holds it, either ignored, match_all or match_none. We deprecated the support for empty queries in 5.0, where we log a deprecation warning wherever they are used.
The way we supported it once we moved query parsing to the coordinating node was having an Optional<QueryBuilder> return type in all of our parse methods (called fromXContent). See #17624. The central place for this was QueryParseContext#parseInnerQueryBuilder. We can now remove all the optional return types and simply throw an exception whenever an empty query is found.
It used to be a hybrid store between `niofs` and `mmapfs`, which we removed when
we switched to `fs` by default (which is `mmapfs` on 64-bits systems).
Currently, the `terms` query is just syctactic sugar for a `bool` query when
used in a query context. This change proposes to always generate the same query
in query and filter contexts, which is less confusing.
For the record, I also had to remove the geo-hash cell and geo-distance range
queries to make the code compile. These queries already throw an exception in
all cases with 5.x indices, so that does not hurt any more.
I also had to rename all 2.x bwc indices from `index-${version}` to
`unsupported-${version}` to make `OldIndexBackwardCompatibilityIT`
happy.
* Scripting: Remove groovy scripting language
Groovy was deprecated in 5.0. This change removes it, along with the
legacy default language infrastructure in scripting.
The `type` parameter has always been accepted by the search_shards api, probably to make the api and its urls the same as search. Truth is that the type never had any effect, it's been ignored from day one while accepting it may make users think that we actually do something with it.
This commit removes support for the type parameter from the REST layer and the Java API. Backwards compatibility is maintained on the transport layer though.
The new added serialization test also uncovered a bug in the java API where the `ClusterSearchShardsRequest` could be created with no arguments, but the indices were required to be not null otherwise the request couldn't be serialized as `writeTo` would throw NPE. Fixed by setting a default value (empty array) for indices.
This changes only the query parsing behavior to be strict when searching on
boolean values. We continue to accept the variety of values during index time,
but searches will only be parsed using `"true"` or `"false"`.

Exist requests are supposed to never throw an exception, but rather return true or false depending on whether some resource exists or not. Indices exists does that for indices and accepts wildcard expressions too. The way the api works internally is by resolving indices and catching IndexNotFoundException: if an exception is thrown the index does not exist hence it returns false, otherwise it returns true. That works ok only if ignore_unavailable and allow_no_indices indices options are both set to false, meaning that they are strict and any missing index or wildcard expressions that resolves to no indices will lead to an exception that can be thrown and cause false to be returned.
Unfortunately the indices options have been configurable up until now for this request, meaning that one can set ignore_unavailable or allow_no_indices to true and have the indices exist request return true for indices that really don't exist, which makes very little sense in the context of this api.
This commit removes the indicesOptions setter from the IndicesExistsRequest and makes settable only expandWildcardsOpen and expandWildcardsClosed, hence a subset of the available indices options. This way we can guarantee more consistent behaviour of the indices exists api. We can then remove the ignore_unavailable and allow_no_indices option from indices exists api spec
In 5.x we allowed this with a deprecation warning. This removes the code

The mem section was buggy in cluster stats and removed. It is now added back with the same structure as in node stats, containing total memory, available memory, used memory and percentages. All the values are the sum of all the nodes across the cluster (or at least the ones that we were able to get the values from).
If elasticsearch controls the ID values as well as the documents
version we can optimize the code that adds / appends the documents
to the index. Essentially we an skip the version lookup for all
documents unless the same document is delivered more than once.
On the lucene level we can simply call IndexWriter#addDocument instead
of #updateDocument but on the Engine level we need to ensure that we deoptimize
the case once we see the same document more than once.
This is done as follows:
1. Mark every request with a timestamp. This is done once on the first node that
receives a request and is fixed for this request. This can be even the
machine local time (see why later). The important part is that retry
requests will have the same value as the original one.
2. In the engine we make sure we keep the highest seen time stamp of "retry" requests.
This is updated while the retry request has its doc id lock. Call this `maxUnsafeAutoIdTimestamp`
3. When the engine runs an "optimized" request comes, it compares it's timestamp with the
current `maxUnsafeAutoIdTimestamp` (but doesn't update it). If the the request
timestamp is higher it is safe to execute it as optimized (no retry request with the same
timestamp has been run before). If not we fall back to "non-optimzed" mode and run the request as a retry one
and update the `maxUnsafeAutoIdTimestamp` unless it's been updated already to a higher value

Parameter improvements to Cluster Health API wait for shards (#20223)
Add 2.4.0 to packaging tests list
Docs: clarify scale is applied at origin+offest (#20242)
* Params improvements to Cluster Health API wait for shards
Previously, the cluster health API used a strictly numeric value
for `wait_for_active_shards`. However, with the introduction of
ActiveShardCount and the removal of write consistency level for
replication operations, `wait_for_active_shards` is used for
write operations to represent values for ActiveShardCount. This
commit moves the cluster health API's usage of `wait_for_active_shards`
to be consistent with its usage in the write operation APIs.
This commit also changes `wait_for_relocating_shards` from a
numeric value to a simple boolean value `wait_for_no_relocating_shards`
to set whether the cluster health operation should wait for
all relocating shards to complete relocation.
* Addresses code review comments
* Don't be lenient if `wait_for_relocating_shards` is set
While removing an index isn't actually an alias action, if we add
an alias action that deletes an index then we can delete and index
and add an alias with the same name as the index atomically, in
the same cluster state update.
Closes#20064
Today we do a lot of accounting inside the engine to maintain locations
of documents inside the transaction log. This is only needed to ensure
we can return the documents source from the engine if it hasn't been refreshed.
Aside of the added complexity to be able to read from the currently writing translog,
maintainance of pointers into the translog this also caused inconsistencies like different values
of the `_ttl` field if it was read from the tlog or not. TermVectors are totally different if
the document is fetched from the tranlog since copy fields are ignored etc.
This chance will simply call `refresh` if the documents latest version is not in the index. This
streamlines the semantics of the `_get` API and allows for more optimizations inside the engine
and on the transaction log. Note: `_refresh` is only called iff the requested document is not refreshed
yet but has recently been updated or added.
