This commit deprecates the Repository Stats API added in 7.8.0 as
an experimental API behind a feature flag. The goal is to deprecate
this API in 7.10.0 and remove it in a follow up PR in 8.0.0.
This API is now superseded by the Repositories Metering API.
This commit removes `integTest` task from all es-plugins.
Most relevant projects have been converted to use yamlRestTest, javaRestTest,
or internalClusterTest in prior PRs.
A few projects needed to be adjusted to allow complete removal of this task
* x-pack/plugin - converted to use yamlRestTest and javaRestTest
* plugins/repository-hdfs - kept the integTest task, but use `rest-test` plugin to define the task
* qa/die-with-dignity - convert to javaRestTest
* x-pack/qa/security-example-spi-extension - convert to javaRestTest
* multiple projects - remove the integTest.enabled = false (yay!)

This pull request adds a new set of APIs that allows tracking the number of requests performed
by the different registered repositories.
In order to avoid losing data, the repository statistics are archived after the repository is closed for
a configurable retention period `repositories.stats.archive.retention_period`. The API exposes the
statistics for the active repositories as well as the modified/closed repositories.

Simplifies allocation for snapshot-backed shards by always making the recovery source "from snapshot" for those
snapshot-backed shards (instead of "recover from local or from empty store"). Also let's the balancer pick a node which
to allocate the snapshot-backed shard to (which takes number of shards on each node into account unlike the current
implementation which just picks whatever node we are allowed to allocate to, with no notion of "balancing" at all).
During prewarming of a Lucene file a CacheFile is acquired and
then locked for the duration of the prewarming, ie locked until all
the part of the file has been downloaded and written to cache on
disk. The locking (executed with CacheFile#fileLock()) is here to
prevent the cache file to be evicted while it is prewarming.
But holding the lock may take a while for large files, specially since
restoring snapshot files now respects the
indices.recovery.max_bytes_per_sec setting of 40mb (#58658),
and this can have bad consequences like preventing the CacheFile
to be evicted, opened or closed. In manual tests this bug slow
downs various requests like mounting a new searchable snapshot
index or deleting an existing one that is still prewarming.
This commit reduces the time the lock is held during prewarming so
that the read lock is only required when actively writing to the CacheFile.
There are currently half a dozen ways to add plugins and modules for
test clusters to use. All of them require the calling project to peek
into the plugin or module they want to use to grab its bundlePlugin
task, and then both depend on that task, as well as extract the archive
path the task will produce. This creates cross project dependencies that
are difficult to detect, and if the dependent plugin/module has not yet
been configured, the build will fail because the task does not yet
exist.
This commit makes the plugin and module methods for testclusters
symmetetric, and simply adding a file provider directly, or a project
path that will produce the plugin/module zip. Internally this new
variant uses normal configuration/dependencies across projects to get
the zip artifact. It also has the added benefit of no longer needing the
caller to add to the test task a dependsOn for bundlePlugin task.
For 1/2 the plugins in x-pack, the integTest
task is now a no-op and all of the tests are now executed via a test,
yamlRestTest, javaRestTest, or internalClusterTest.
This includes the following projects:
security, spatial, stack, transform, vecotrs, voting-only-node, and watcher.
A few of the more specialized qa projects within these plugins
have not been changed with this PR due to additional complexity which should
be addressed separately.

System indices can be snapshotted and are therefore potential candidates
to be mounted as searchable snapshot indices. As of today nothing
prevents a snapshot to be mounted under an index name starting with .
and this can lead to conflicting situations because searchable snapshot
indices are read-only and Elasticsearch expects some system indices
to be writable; because searchable snapshot indices will soon use an
internal system index (#60522) to speed up recoveries and we should
prevent the system index to be itself a searchable snapshot index
(leading to some deadlock situation for recovery).
This commit introduces a changes to prevent snapshots to be mounted
as a system index.
BlobStoreCacheService implements ClusterStateListener in order to
maintain a ready flag that can be used to know when the snapshot
blob cache should be queries or not.
Now the getAsync() method correctly handles the various exceptions
that can be thrown when the .snapshot-blob-cache index is not
available(in isExpectedCacheGetException()) and logs as DEBUG
we can safely remove the ready flag.
Today we sometimes notify a listener of completion while holding
`SparseFileTracker#mutex`. This commit move all such calls out from
under the mutex and adds assertions that the mutex is not held in the
listener.
Closes#61520
Today we use `long` to represent the number of parts of a blob. There's
no need for this extra range, it forces us to do some casting elsewhere,
and indeed when snapshotting we iterate over the parts using an `int`
which would be an infinite loop in case of overflow anyway:
for (int i = 0; i < fileInfo.numberOfParts(); i++) {
This commit changes the representation of the number of parts of a blob
to an `int`.
We convert longs to ints using `Math.toIntExact` in places where we're
sure there will be no overflow, but this doesn't explain the intent of
these conversions very well. This commit introduces a dedicated method
for these conversions, and adds an assertion that we never overflow.
If a searchable snapshot shard fails (e.g. its node leaves the cluster)
we want to be able to start it up again on a different node as quickly
as possible to avoid unnecessarily blocking or failing searches. It
isn't feasible to fully restore such shards in an acceptably short time.
In particular we would like to be able to deal with the `can_match`
phase of a search ASAP so that we can skip unnecessary waiting on shards
that may still be warming up but which are not required for the search.
This commit solves this problem by introducing a system index that holds
much of the data required to start a shard. Today(*) this means it holds
the contents of every file with size <8kB, and the first 4kB of every
other file in the shard. This system index acts as a second-level cache,
behind the first-level node-local disk cache but in front of the blob
store itself. Reading chunks from the index is slower than reading them
directly from disk, but faster than reading them from the blob store,
and is also replicated and accessible to all nodes in the cluster.
(*) the exact heuristics for what we should put into the system index
are still under investigation and may change in future.
This second-level cache is populated when we attempt to read a chunk
which is missing from both levels of cache and must therefore be read
from the blob store.
We also introduce `SearchableSnapshotsBlobStoreCacheIntegTests` which
verify that we do not hit the blob store more than necessary when
starting up a shard that we've seen before, whether due to a node
restart or because a snapshot was mounted multiple times.

The test didn't take into account the case where 0 documents are
indexed into the shard, meaning that files aren't loaded during
the pre-warm phase. The test injects FileSystem failures, if
the snapshot doesn't contain any files, pre-warm doesn't read
any files and the recovery completes normally.

Fixes a test failure in which we allocated some shards and then
relocated them elsewhere, invalidating an assertion about the recovery
statistics which assumed that the shards stayed where they were
originally allocated.

This pull request adds recovery state tracking for Searchable Snapshots.
In order to track recoveries for searchable snapshot backed indices, this pull
request adds a new type of RecoveryState.
This newRecoveryState instance is able to deal with the
small differences that arise during Searchable snapshots recoveries.
Those differences can be summarized as follows:
- The Directory implementation that's provided by SearchableSnapshots mark the
snapshot files as reused during recovery. In order to keep track of the
recovery process as the cache is pre-warmed, those files shouldn't be marked
as reused.
- Once the shard is created, the cache starts its pre-warming phase, meaning that
we should keep track of those downloads during that process and tie the recovery
to this pre-warming phase. The shard is considered recovered once this pre-warming
phase has finished.

Implements license degradation behavior for searchable snapshots. Snapshot-backed shards are failed when the license becomes invalid, and shards won't be reallocated. After valid license is put in place again, shards are allocated again.

* Removes evaluationDependsOn(xpackModule('core')) from build.gradle files under x-pack
* Removes a place holder test in favor of disabling the test task (in the async plugin)
Closing a regular index and mounting a snapshot-backed index into that existing index does not clean the existing index
folders of those preexisting shards.
This PR removes the existing Lucene / translog files once the searchable snapshot shard is starting up. Future PRs will
make reuse of the existing index files to populate the cache.
- Replace immediate task creations by using task avoidance api

- Still many tasks are created during configuration phase. Tackled in separate steps
Due to complicated access checks (reads and writes execute in their own access context) on some repositories (GCS, Azure, HDFS), using a hard coded buffer size of 4k for restores was needlessly inefficient.
By the same token, the use of stream copying with the default 8k buffer size for blob writes was inefficient as well.
We also had dedicated, undocumented buffer size settings for HDFS and FS repositories. For these two we would use a 100k buffer by default. We did not have such a setting for e.g. GCS though, which would only use an 8k read buffer which is needlessly small for reading from a raw `URLConnection`.
This commit adds an undocumented setting that sets the default buffer size to `128k` for all repositories. It removes wasteful allocation of such a large buffer for small writes and reads in case of HDFS and FS repositories (i.e. still using the smaller buffer to write metadata) but uses a large buffer for doing restores and uploading segment blobs.
This should speed up Azure and GCS restores and snapshots in a non-trivial way as well as save some memory when reading small blobs on FS and HFDS repositories.
Today when mounting a searchable snapshot we obtain the snapshot/index
UUIDs and then assume that these are the UUIDs used during the
subsequent restore. If you concurrently delete the snapshot and replace
it with one with the same name then this assumption is violated, with
chaotic consequences.
This commit introduces a check that ensures that the snapshot UUID does
not change during the mount process. If the snapshot remains in place
then the index UUID necessarily does not change either.

Since #58728 writing operations on searchable snapshot directory cache files
are executed in an asynchronous manner using a dedicated thread pool. The
thread pool used is searchable_snapshots which has been created to execute
prewarming tasks.
Reusing the same thread pool wasn't a good idea as it can lead to deadlock
situations. One of these situation arose in a test failure where the thread pool
was full of prewarming tasks, all waiting for a cache file to be accessible, while
the cache file was being evicted by the cache service. But such an eviction
can only be processed when all read/write operations on the cache file are
completed and in this case the deadlock occurred because the cache file was
actively being read by a concurrent search which also won the privilege to
write the range of bytes in cache... and this writing operation could never have
been completed because of the prewarming tasks making no progress and
filling up the thread pool.
This commit renames the searchable_snapshots thread pool to
searchable_snapshots_cache_fetch_async. Assertions are added to assert
that cache writes are executed using this thread pool and to assert that read
on cached index inputs are executed using a different thread pool to avoid
potential deadlock situations.
This commit also adds a searchable_snapshots_cache_prewarming that is
used to execute prewarming tasks. It also converts the existing cache prewarming
test into a more complte integration test that creates multiple searchable
snapshot indices concurrently with randomized thread pool sizes, and verifies
that all files have been correctly prewarmed.
Today we empty the searchable snapshots cache when cleanly closing a
shard, but leak cache files in some cases involving an unclean shutdown.
Such leaks are not permanent, they are cleaned up on shard relocation or
deletion, but they still might last for arbitrarily long until that
happens. This commit introduces a cleanup process that runs during node
startup to catch such leaks sooner.
Also, today we permit searchable snapshots to be held on custom data
paths, and store the corresponding cache files within the custom
location. Supporting this feature would make the cleanup process
significantly more complicated since it would require each node to parse
the index metadata for the shards it held before shutdown. Yet, this
feature is undocumented and offers minimal benefits to searchable
snapshots. Therefore with this commit we forbid custom data paths for
searchable snapshot shards.
In order to ensure that we do not write a broken piece of `RepositoryData`
because the phyiscal repository generation was moved ahead more than one step
by erroneous concurrent writing to a repository we must check whether or not
the current assumed repository generation exists in the repository physically.
Without this check we run the risk of writing on top of stale cached repository data.

This commit creates a new Gradle plugin to provide a separate task name
and source set for running YAML based REST tests. The only project
converted to use the new plugin in this PR is distribution/archives/integ-test-zip.
For which the testing has been moved to :rest-api-spec since it makes the most
sense and it avoids a small but awkward change to the distribution plugin.
The remaining cases in modules, plugins, and x-pack will be handled in followups.
This plugin is distinctly different from the plugin introduced in #55896 since
the YAML REST tests are intended to be black box tests over HTTP. As such they
should not (by default) have access to the classpath for that which they are testing.
The YAML based REST tests will be moved to separate source sets (yamlRestTest).
The which source is the target for the test resources is dependent on if this
new plugin is applied. If it is not applied, it will default to the test source
set.
Further, this introduces a breaking change for plugin developers that
use the YAML testing framework. They will now need to either use the new source set
and matching task, or configure the rest resources to use the old "test" source set that
matches the old integTest task. (The former should be preferred).
As part of this change (which is also breaking for plugin developers) the
rest resources plugin has been removed from the build plugin and now requires
either explicit application or application via the new YAML REST test plugin.
Plugin developers should be able to fix the breaking changes to the YAML tests
by adding apply plugin: 'elasticsearch.yaml-rest-test' and moving the YAML tests
under a yamlRestTest folder (instead of test)
Despite all my attempts I did not manage to reproduce issues like the ones
described in #58961. My guess is that the _mount request got retried at
some point but I wasn't able to validate this assumption.
Still, the FsSearchableSnapshotsIT can be pretty disk heavy if a small
random chunk size and a large number of documents is picked up in the
tests. The parent class also does not verify the acknowledged status
of some requests.
This commit lowers down the chunk size and number of docs in tests
(this is extensively tests in unit tests) and also adds assertions on
acknowledged responses.

Since #58728 part of searchable snapshot shard files are written in cache
in an asynchronous manner in a dedicated thread pool. It means that even
if a search query is successful and returns, there are still more bytes to
write in the cached files on disk.
On CI this can be slow; if we want to check that the cached_bytes_written
has changed we need to check multiple times to give some time for the
cached data to be effectively written.
This commit changes CacheFile and CachedBlobContainerIndexInput so that
the read operations made by these classes are now progressively executed
and do not wait for full range to be written in cache. It relies on the change
introduced in #58477 and it is the last change extracted from #58164.
Relates #58164
Restoring from a snapshot (which is a particular form of recovery) does not currently take recovery throttling into account
(i.e. the `indices.recovery.max_bytes_per_sec` setting). While restores are subject to their own throttling (repository
setting `max_restore_bytes_per_sec`), this repository setting does not allow for values to be configured differently on a
per-node basis. As restores are very similar in nature to peer recoveries (streaming bytes to the node), it makes sense to
configure throttling in a single place.
The `max_restore_bytes_per_sec` setting is also changed to default to unlimited now, whereas previously it was set to
`40mb`, which is the current default of `indices.recovery.max_bytes_per_sec`). This means that no behavioral change
will be observed by clusters where the recovery and restore settings were not adapted.
