This commit refactors the ElasticsearchException class located in the server module
to OpenSearchException. References and usages throughout the rest of the
codebase are fully refactored.

Currently Netty will batch compression an entire HTTP response
regardless of its content size. It allocates a byte array at least of
the same size as the uncompressed content. This causes issues with our
attempts to remove humungous G1GC allocations. This commit resolves the
issue by split responses into 128KB chunks.
This has the side-effect of making large outbound HTTP responses that
are compressed be send as chunked transfer-encoding.
Currently we duplicate our specialized cors logic in all transport
plugins. This is unnecessary as it could be implemented in a single
place. This commit moves the logic to server. Additionally it fixes a
but where we are incorrectly closing http channels on early Cors
responses.
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!)

For all OSS plugins (except repository-* and discovery-*) integTest
task is now a no-op and all of the tests are now executed via a test,
yamlRestTest, javaRestTest, or internalClusterTest.
This commit does NOT convert the discovery-* and repository-* since they
are bit more complex then the rest of tests and this PR is large enough.
Those plugins will be addressed in a future PR(s).
This commit also fixes a minor issue that did not copy the rest api
for projects that only had YAML TEST tests.

In #60297 we added some tests related to logging from the transport
layer, but these tests failed occasionally since the cluster
was kept alive between test invocations but the logging framework
expected it only to be used for a single test. With this commit we
reduce the scope of the internal test cluster to `TEST` to solve this
problem.
Closes#60321.
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.
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.
Currently we are leaving the settings to default port range in the nio
and netty4 http server test. This has recently led to tests failing due
to what appears to be a port conflict with other processes. This commit
modifies these tests to use the test case helper method to generate port
ranges.
Fixes#58433 and #58296.
* Replace compile configuration usage with api (#58451)
- Use java-library instead of plugin to allow api configuration usage
- Remove explicit references to runtime configurations in dependency declarations
- Make test runtime classpath input for testing convention
- required as java library will by default not have build jar file
- jar file is now explicit input of the task and gradle will ensure its properly build
* Fix compile usages in 7.x branch
Netty4HttpServerTransportTests has started to fail intermittently. It
seems like unexpected successful responses are being received when the
test is simulating errors. This commit adds logging to the test to
provide additional information when there is an unexpected success. It
also adds the logging to the nio http test.
Almost every outbound message is serialized to buffers of 16k pagesize.
We were serializing these messages off the IO loop (and retaining the concrete message
instance as well) and would then enqueue it on the IO loop to be dealt with as soon as the
channel is ready.
1. This would cause buffers to be held onto for longer than necessary, causing less reuse on average.
2. If a channel was slow for some reason, not only would concrete message instances queue up for it, but also 16k of buffers would be reserved for each message until it would be written+flushed physically.
With this change, the serialization happens on the event loop which effectively limits the number of buffers that `N` IO-threads will ever use so long as messages are small and channels writable.
Also, this change dereferences the reference to the concrete outbound message as soon as it has been serialized to save some more on GC.
This reduces the GC time for a default PMC run by about 50% in experiments (3 nodes, 2G heap each, loopback ... obvious caveat is that GC isn't that heavy in the first place with recent changes but still a measurable gain).
I also expect it to be helpful for master node stability by causing less of a spike if master is e.g. hit by a large number of requests that are processed batched (e.g. shard snapshot status updates) and responded to in a short time frame all at once.
Obviously, the downside to this change is that it introduces more latency on the IO loop for the serialization. But since we read all of these messages on the IO loop as well I don't see it as much of a qualitative change really and the more predictable buffer use seems much more valuable relatively.
We don't need to hold on to the request body past the beginning of sending
the response. There is no need to keep a reference to it until after the response
has been sent fully and we can eagerly release it here.
Note, this can be optimized further to release the contents even earlier but for now
this is an easy increment to saving some memory on the IO pool.
Elasticsearch requires that a HttpRequest abstraction be implemented
by http modules before server processing. This abstraction controls when
underlying resources are released. This commit moves this abstraction to
be created immediately after content aggregation. This change will
enable follow-up work including moving Cors logic into the server
package and tracking bytes as they are aggregated from the network
level.
In most cases we are seeing a `PooledHeapByteBuf` here now. No need to
redundantly create an new `ByteBuffer` and single element array for it
here when we can just directly unwrap its internal `byte[]`.
This is another part of the breakup of the massive BuildPlugin. This PR
moves the code for configuring publications to a separate plugin. Most
of the time these publications are jar files, but this also supports the
zip publication we have for integ tests.
We never do any file IO or other blocking work on the transport threads
so no tangible benefit can be derived from using more threads than CPUs
for IO.
There are however significant downsides to using more threads than necessary
with Netty in particular. Since we use the default setting for
`io.netty.allocator.useCacheForAllThreads` which is `true` we end up
using up to `16MB` of thread local buffer cache for each transport thread.
Meaning we potentially waste CPUs * 16MB of heap for unnecessary IO threads in addition to obvious inefficiencies of artificially adding extra context switches.
Two spots that allow for some optimization:
* We are often creating a composite reference of just a single item in
the transport layer => special cased via static constructor to make sure we never do that
* Also removed the pointless case of an empty composite bytes ref
* `ByteBufferReference` is practically always created from a heap buffer these days so there
is no point of dealing with all the bounds checks and extra references to sliced buffers from that
and we can just use the underlying array directly
Currently there is a clear mechanism to stub sending a request through
the transport. However, this is limited to testing exceptions on the
sender side. This commit reworks our transport related testing
infrastructure to allow stubbing request handling on the receiving side.
The use of available processors, the terminology, and the settings
around it have evolved over time. This commit cleans up some places in
the codes and in the docs to adjust to the current terminology.
This commit moves the action name validation and circuit breaking into
the InboundAggregator. This work is valuable because it lays the
groundwork for incrementally circuit breaking as data is received.
This PR includes the follow behavioral change:
Handshakes contribute to circuit breaking, but cannot be broken. They
currently do not contribute nor are they broken.
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.
Elasticsearch has a number of different BytesReference implementations.
These implementations can all implement the interface in different ways
with subtly different behavior and performance characteristics. On the
other-hand, the JVM only represents bytes as an array or a direct byte
buffer. This commit deletes the specialized Netty implementations and
moves to using a generic ByteBuffer reference type. This will allow us
to focus on standardizing performance and behave around a smaller number
of implementations that can be used by all components in Elasticsearch.
Now that the FIPS 140 security provider is simply a test dependency
we don't need the thirdPartyAudit exceptions, but plugin-cli and
transport-netty4 do need jarHell disabled as they use the non fips
BouncyCastle security provider as a test dependency too.
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
It is the job of the http server transport to release the request in the handler
but the mock fails to do so since we never override `incomingRequest`.
* Copying the request is not necessary here. We can simply release it once the response has been generated and a lot of `Unpooled` allocations that way
* Relates #32228
* I think the issue that preventet that PR that PR from being merged was solved by #39634 that moved the bulk index marker search to ByteBuf bulk access so the composite buffer shouldn't require many additional bounds checks (I'd argue the bounds checks we add, we save when copying the composite buffer)
* I couldn't neccessarily reproduce much of a speedup from this change, but I could reproduce a very measureable reduction in GC time with e.g. Rally's PMC (4g heap node and bulk requests of size 5k saw a reduction in young GC time by ~10% for me)
Backport of #48849. Update `.editorconfig` to make the Java settings the
default for all files, and then apply a 2-space indent to all `*.gradle`
files. Then reformat all the files.
This commit introduces a consistent, and type-safe manner for handling
global build parameters through out our build logic. Primarily this
replaces the existing usages of extra properties with static accessors.
It also introduces and explicit API for initialization and mutation of
any such parameters, as well as better error handling for uninitialized
or eager access of parameter values.
Closes#42042
BytesReference is currently an abstract class which is extended by
various implementations. This makes it very difficult to use the
delegation pattern. The implication of this is that our releasable
BytesReference is a PagedBytesReference type and cannot be used as a
generic releasable bytes reference that delegates to any reference type.
This commit makes BytesReference an interface and introduces an
AbstractBytesReference for common functionality.
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.
Uses JDK 11's per-socket configuration of TCP keepalive (supported on Linux and Mac), see
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8194298, and exposes these as transport settings.
By default, these options are disabled for now (i.e. fall-back to OS behavior), but we would like
to explore whether we can enable them by default, in particular to force keepalive configurations
that are better tuned for running ES.
Currently in the transport-nio work we connect and bind channels on the
a thread before the channel is registered with a selector. Additionally,
it is at this point that we set all the socket options. This commit
moves these operations onto the event-loop after the channel has been
registered with a selector. It attempts to set the socket options for a
non-server channel at registration time. If that fails, it will attempt
to set the options after the channel is connected. This should fix
#41071.
* Stop Passing Around REST Request in Multiple Spots
* Motivated by #44564
* We are currently passing the REST request object around to a large number of places. This works fine since we simply copy the full request content before we handle the rest itself which is needlessly hard on GC and heap.
* This PR removes a number of spots where the request is passed around needlessly. There are many more spots to optimize in follow-ups to this, but this one would already enable bypassing the request copying for some error paths in a follow up.
Today we have an annotation for controlling logging levels in
tests. This annotation serves two purposes, one is to control the
logging level used in tests, when such control is needed to impact and
assert the behavior of loggers in tests. The other use is when a test is
failing and additional logging is needed. This commit separates these
two concerns into separate annotations.
The primary motivation for this is that we have a history of leaving
behind the annotation for the purpose of investigating test failures
long after the test failure is resolved. The accumulation of these stale
logging annotations has led to excessive disk consumption. Having
recently cleaned this up, we would like to avoid falling into this state
again. To do this, we are adding a link to the test failure under
investigation to the annotation when used for the purpose of
investigating test failures. We will add tooling to inspect these
annotations, in the same way that we have tooling on awaits fix
annotations. This will enable us to report on the use of these
annotations, and report when stale uses of the annotation exist.
