Right now, the stats API only provides refresh metrics regarding
internal refreshes. This isn't very useful and somewhat misleading for
cluster administrators since the internal refreshes are not indicative
of documents being available for search.
In this PR I added a new metric for collecting external refreshes as
they occur and exposing them through the stats API. Now, calling an
endpoint for stats will yield external refresh metrics as well.

Today we don't return segments stats for closed indices which makes it
hard to tell how much memory such an index would require. With this change
we return the statistics if requested by setting `include_unloaded_segments` to
true on the rest request.

This commit removes the cluster state size field from the cluster state
response, and drops the backwards compatibility layer added in 6.7.0 to
continue to support this field. As calculation of this field was
expensive and had dubious value, we have elected to remove this field.
This PR adds an internal REST API for querying context information about
Painless whitelists.
Commands include the following:
GET /_scripts/painless/_context -- retrieves a list of contexts
GET /_scripts/painless/_context?context=%name% retrieves all available
information about the API for this specific context
Computing the compressed size of the cluster state on every invocation
of cluster:monitor/state action is expensive, and the value of this
field is dubious anyway. Therefore we want to remove computing this
field. As a first step, we stop computing and return this field by
default. To avoid breaking users, we will give them a system property to
use to tide them over until the next major release when we will actually
remove this field. This comes with a deprecation warning too, and the
backport to the appropriate minor will also include a note in the
migration guide. There will be a follow-up to remove this field in the
next major version.
the test "Implicitly create a typeless ... typed template"
fails occasionally because the index operation hasn't
propogated to update the index mapping in time for the
following assertion about a dynamically mapped field "bar".
error failed with:
```
field [test-1.mappings.my_type.properties.bar] doesn't have a true value
Expected: not null
but: was null
```
refreshing the index should resolve this timing issue.
Today we have no chance to fetch actual segment stats for segments that
are currently unloaded. This is relevant in the case of frozen indices.
This allows to monitor how much memory a frozen index would use if it was
unfrozen.
Backport support for replicating closed indices (#39499)
Before this change, closed indexes were simply not replicated. It was therefore
possible to close an index and then decommission a data node without knowing
that this data node contained shards of the closed index, potentially leading to
data loss. Shards of closed indices were not completely taken into account when
balancing the shards within the cluster, or automatically replicated through shard
copies, and they were not easily movable from node A to node B using APIs like
Cluster Reroute without being fully reopened and closed again.
This commit changes the logic executed when closing an index, so that its shards
are not just removed and forgotten but are instead reinitialized and reallocated on
data nodes using an engine implementation which does not allow searching or
indexing, which has a low memory overhead (compared with searchable/indexable
opened shards) and which allows shards to be recovered from peer or promoted
as primaries when needed.
This new closing logic is built on top of the new Close Index API introduced in
6.7.0 (#37359). Some pre-closing sanity checks are executed on the shards before
closing them, and closing an index on a 8.0 cluster will reinitialize the index shards
and therefore impact the cluster health.
Some APIs have been adapted to make them work with closed indices:
- Cluster Health API
- Cluster Reroute API
- Cluster Allocation Explain API
- Recovery API
- Cat Indices
- Cat Shards
- Cat Health
- Cat Recovery

This test had been disabled because of test failures, but it only affected the
6.x branch. The fix for 6.x is at #39054. On master/7.x/7.0 we can reenable the
test as-is.
This commit changes the `TransportVerifyShardBeforeCloseAction` so that it
always forces the flush of the shard. It seems that #37961 is not sufficient to
ensure that the translog and the Lucene commit share the exact same max
seq no and global checkpoint information in case of one or more noop
operations have been made.
The `BulkWithUpdatesIT.testThatMissingIndexDoesNotAbortFullBulkRequest`
and `FrozenIndexTests.testFreezeEmptyIndexWithTranslogOps` test this trivial
situation and they both fail 1 on 10 executions.

Elasticsearch has long [supported](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/docs-index_.html#index-versioning) compare and set (a.k.a optimistic concurrency control) operations using internal document versioning. Sadly that approach is flawed and can sometime do the wrong thing. Here's the relevant excerpt from the resiliency status page:
> When a primary has been partitioned away from the cluster there is a short period of time until it detects this. During that time it will continue indexing writes locally, thereby updating document versions. When it tries to replicate the operation, however, it will discover that it is partitioned away. It won’t acknowledge the write and will wait until the partition is resolved to negotiate with the master on how to proceed. The master will decide to either fail any replicas which failed to index the operations on the primary or tell the primary that it has to step down because a new primary has been chosen in the meantime. Since the old primary has already written documents, clients may already have read from the old primary before it shuts itself down. The version numbers of these reads may not be unique if the new primary has already accepted writes for the same document
We recently [introduced](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.x/optimistic-concurrency-control.html) a new sequence number based approach that doesn't suffer from this dirty reads problem.
This commit removes support for internal versioning as a concurrency control mechanism in favor of the sequence number approach.

`CreateIndexRequest#source(Map<String, Object>, ... )`, which is used when
deserializing index creation requests, accidentally accepts mappings that are
nested twice under the type key (as described in the bug report #38266).
This in turn causes us to be too lenient in parsing typeless mappings. In
particular, we accept the following index creation request, even though it
should not contain the type key `_doc`:
```
PUT index?include_type_name=false
{
"mappings": {
"_doc": {
"properties": { ... }
}
}
}
```
There is a similar issue for both 'put templates' and 'put mappings' requests
as well.
This PR makes the minimal changes to detect and reject these typed mappings in
requests. It does not address #38266 generally, or attempt a larger refactor
around types in these server-side requests, as I think this should be done at a
later time.
X-Pack security supports built-in authentication service
`token-service` that allows access tokens to be used to
access Elasticsearch without using Basic authentication.
The tokens are generated by `token-service` based on
OAuth2 spec. The access token is a short-lived token
(defaults to 20m) and refresh token with a lifetime of 24 hours,
making them unsuitable for long-lived or recurring tasks where
the system might go offline thereby failing refresh of tokens.
This commit introduces a built-in authentication service
`api-key-service` that adds support for long-lived tokens aka API
keys to access Elasticsearch. The `api-key-service` is consulted
after `token-service` in the authentication chain. By default,
if TLS is enabled then `api-key-service` is also enabled.
The service can be disabled using the configuration setting.
The API keys:-
- by default do not have an expiration but expiration can be
configured where the API keys need to be expired after a
certain amount of time.
- when generated will keep authentication information of the user that
generated them.
- can be defined with a role describing the privileges for accessing
Elasticsearch and will be limited by the role of the user that
generated them
- can be invalidated via invalidation API
- information can be retrieved via a get API
- that have been expired or invalidated will be retained for 1 week
before being deleted. The expired API keys remover task handles this.
Following are the API key management APIs:-
1. Create API Key - `PUT/POST /_security/api_key`
2. Get API key(s) - `GET /_security/api_key`
3. Invalidate API Key(s) `DELETE /_security/api_key`
The API keys can be used to access Elasticsearch using `Authorization`
header, where the auth scheme is `ApiKey` and the credentials, is the
base64 encoding of API key Id and API key separated by a colon.
Example:-
```
curl -H "Authorization: ApiKey YXBpLWtleS1pZDphcGkta2V5" http://localhost:9200/_cluster/health
```
Closes#34383
This adds a dedicated field mapper that supports nanosecond resolution -
at the price of a reduced date range.
When using the date field mapper, the time is stored as milliseconds since the epoch
in a long in lucene. This field mapper stores the time in nanoseconds
since the epoch - which means its range is much smaller, ranging roughly from
1970 to 2262.
Note that aggregations will still be in milliseconds.
However docvalue fields will have full nanosecond resolution

This PR removes the temporary change we made to the yml test harness in #37285
to automatically set `include_type_name` to `true` in index creation requests
if it's not already specified. This is possible now that the vast majority of
index creation requests were updated to be typeless in #37611. A few additional
tests also needed updating here.
Additionally, this PR updates the test harness to set `include_type_name` to
`false` in index creation requests when communicating with 6.x nodes. This
mirrors the logic added in #37611 to allow for typeless document write requests
in test set-up code. With this update in place, we can remove many references
to `include_type_name: false` from the yml tests.
The terms aggregator loads the global ordinals to retrieve the cardinality of the field to aggregate on. This information is then used to select the strategy to use for the aggregation (breadth_first or depth_first). However this should be avoided if the execution_hint is explicitly set to map since this mode doesn't really need the global ordinals. Since we still need the cardinality of the field this change picks the maximum cardinality in the segments as an estimation of the total cardinality to select the strategy to use (breadth_first or depth_first). This estimation is only used if the execution hint is set to map, otherwise the global ordinals are still used to retrieve the accurate cardinality.
Closes#37705
Implements `geotile_grid` aggregation
This patch refactors previous implementation https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/pull/30240
This code uses the same base classes as `geohash_grid` agg, but uses a different hashing
algorithm to allow zoom consistency. Each grid bucket is aligned to Web Mercator tiles.
With #37566 we have introduced the ability to merge multiple search responses into one. That makes it possible to expose a new way of executing cross-cluster search requests, that makes CCS much faster whenever there is network latency between the CCS coordinating node and the remote clusters. The coordinating node can now send a single search request to each remote cluster, which gets reduced by each one of them. from + size results are requested to each cluster, and the reduce phase in each cluster is non final (meaning that buckets are not pruned and pipeline aggs are not executed). The CCS coordinating node performs an additional, final reduction, which produces one search response out of the multiple responses received from the different clusters.
This new execution path will be activated by default for any CCS request unless a scroll is provided or inner hits are requested as part of field collapsing. The search API accepts now a new parameter called ccs_minimize_roundtrips that allows to opt-out of the default behaviour.

Currently the put-mapping API assumes that because the type name is `_doc` then
it is dealing with a typeless put-mapping call. Yet we still allow running the
put-mapping API in a typed fashion with `_doc` as a type name. The current logic
triggers surprising errors when doing a typed put-mapping call with `_doc` as a
type name on an index that has a type already.
This is a bit of a corner-case, but is more important on 6.x due to the fact
that using the index API with `_doc` as a type name triggers typed calls to the
put-mapping API with `_doc` as a type name.
Today we pass `discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes` to nodes started up in
tests, but for 7.x nodes this setting is not required as it has no effect.
This commit removes this setting so that nodes are started with more realistic
configurations, and deprecates it.
This PR attempts to remove all typed calls from our YAML REST tests. The PR adds include_type_name: false to create index requests that use a mapping and also to put mapping requests. It also removes _type from index requests where they haven't already been removed. The PR ignores tests named *_with_types.yml since this are specifically testing typed API behaviour.
The change also includes changing the test harness to add the type _doc to index, update, get and bulk requests that do not specify the document type when the test is running against a mixed 7.x/6.x cluster.
Doc-value fields now return a value that is based on the mappings rather than
the script implementation by default.
This deprecates the special `use_field_mapping` docvalue format which was added
in #29639 only to ease the transition to 7.x and it is not necessary anymore in
7.0.
Currently if you mix typed templates and typeless index creation or typeless
templates and typed index creation then you will end up with an error because
Elasticsearch tries to create an index that has multiple types: `_doc` and
the explicit type name that you used.
This commit proposes to give precedence to the index creation call so that
the type from the template will be ignored if the index creation call is
typeless while the template is typed, and the type from the index creation
call will be used if there is a typeless template.
This is consistent with the fact that index creation already "wins" if a field
is defined differently in the index creation call and in a template: the
definition from the index creation call is used in such cases.
Closes#37773
This commit adds the code in the HTTP layer that will parse exclusion wildcard
expressions.
The existing code issues 404s for wildcards as well as explicit indices.
But, in general, in an expression with exclude wildcards (-...*) following other
include wildcards, there is no way to tell if the include wildcard produced no
results or they were subsequently excluded.
Therefore, the proposed change is breaking the behavior of 404s for
wildcards. Specifically, no 404s will be returned for wildcards, even
if they are not followed by exclude wildcards or the exclude wildcards
could not possibly exclude what has previously been included.
Only explicitly requested aliases will be called out as missing.
The update request has a lesser known support for a one off update of a known document version. This PR adds an a seq# based alternative to power these operations.

This changes adds the support to handle `nested` fields in the `composite`
aggregation. A `nested` aggregation can be used as parent of a `composite`

This commit moves the aggregation and mapping code from joda time to
java time. This includes field mappers, root object mappers, aggregations with date
histograms, query builders and a lot of changes within tests.
The cut-over to java time is a requirement so that we can support nanoseconds
properly in a future field mapper.

Users may require the sequence number and primary terms to perform optimistic concurrency control operations. Currently, you can get the sequence number via the `docvalues_fields` API but the primary term is not accessible because it is maintained by the `SeqNoFieldMapper` and the infrastructure can't find it.
This commit adds a dedicated sub fetch phase to return both numbers that is connected to a new `seq_no_primary_term` parameter.
From #29453 and #37285, the `include_type_name` parameter was already present and defaulted to false. This PR makes the following updates:
- Add deprecation warnings to `RestPutMappingAction`, plus tests in `RestPutMappingActionTests`.
- Add a typeless 'put mappings' method to the Java HLRC, and deprecate the old typed version. To do this cleanly, I opted to create a new `PutMappingRequest` object that differs from the existing server one.
This change adds deprecation warning to the indices.get_mapping API in case the
"inlcude_type_name" parameter is set to "true" and changes the parsing code in
GetMappingsResponse to parse the type-less response instead of the one
containing types. As a consequence the HLRC client doesn't need to force
"include_type_name=true" any more and the GetMappingsResponseTests can be
adapted to the new format as well. Also removing some "include_type_name"
parameters in yaml test and docs where not necessary.
