During package install on systemd-based systems, some sysctl settings
should be set (e.g. vm.max_map_count).
In some environments, changing sysctl settings plainly does not work;
previously a global environment variable named
ES_SKIP_SET_KERNEL_PARAMETERS was introduced to skip calling sysctl, but
this causes trouble for:
- configuration management systems, which usually cannot apply an env
var when running a package manager
- package upgrades, which will not have the env var set any more, and
thus leaving the package management system in a bad state (possibly
half-way upgraded, can be very hard to recover)
This removes the env var again and instead of calling systemd-sysctl
manually, tells systemd to restart the wrapper unit - which itself can
be masked by system administrators or management tools if it is known
that sysctl does not work in a given environment.
The restart is not silent on systems in their default configuration, but
is ignored if the unit is masked.

The index parameter in the update-aliases, put-alias, and delete-alias APIs no longer accepts alias names. Instead, it accepts only index names (or wildcards which will expand to matching indices).
Closes#23960
This removes the parsing of things like `GET /idx/_aliases,_mappings`, instead,
a user must choose between retriving all index metadata with `GET /idx`, or only
a specific form such as `GET /idx/_settings`.
Relates to (and is a prerequisite of) #24437
Some response classes in the java api expose both `getTook()` which returns a `TimeValue` and `getTookInMillis` which returns a `long` value. `getTook()` is enough as one can do `getTook().millis()` to obtain the same result as `getTookInMillis()`, which can be removed.
* Adds nodes usage API to monitor usages of actions
The nodes usage API has 2 main endpoints
/_nodes/usage and /_nodes/{nodeIds}/usage return the usage statistics
for all nodes and the specified node(s) respectively.
At the moment only one type of usage statistics is available, the REST
actions usage. This records the number of times each REST action class is
called and when the nodes usage api is called will return a map of rest
action class name to long representing the number of times each of the action
classes has been called.
Still to do:
* [x] Create usage service to store usage statistics
* [x] Record usage in REST layer
* [x] Add Transport Actions
* [x] Add REST Actions
* [x] Tests
* [x] Documentation
* Rafactors UsageService so counts are done by the handlers
* Fixing up docs tests
* Adds a name to all rest actions
* Addresses review comments
This commit adds a new bg_count field to the REST response of
SignificantTerms aggregations. Similarly to the bg_count that already
exists in significant terms buckets, this new bg_count field is set at
the aggregation level and is populated with the superset size value.
Currently global ordinals are documented under `fielddata`. It moves them to
their own file since they also work with doc values and fielddata is on the way
out.
Closes#23101
By default, the remove plugin CLI command preserves configuration
files. This is so that if a user is upgrading the plugin (which is done
by first removing the old version and then installing the new version)
they do not lose their configuration file. Yet, there are circumstances
where preserving the configuration file is not desired. This commit adds
a purge option to the remove plugin CLI command.

This commit adds a `doc_count` field to the response body of Matrix
Stats aggregation. It exposes the number of documents involved in
the computation of statistics, a value that can already be retrieved using
the method MatrixStats.getDocCount() in the Java API.
This commit fixes an issue with the plugin docs incorrectly specifying
how to set a custom configuration directory. The correct way is to use
the environment variable CONF_DIR.
* SignificantText aggregation - like significant_terms but doesn’t require fielddata=true, recommended used with `sampler` agg to limit expense of tokenizing docs and takes optional `filter_duplicate_text`:true setting to avoid stats skew from repeated sections of text in search results.
Closes#23674
Adds a "magic" key to the yaml testing stash mostly for use with
documentation tests. When unstashing an object, `$_path` is the
path into the current position in the object you are unstashing.
This means that in docs tests you can use
`// TESTRESPONSEs/somevalue/$body.${_path}/` to mean "replace
`somevalue` with whatever is the response in the same position."
Compare how you must carefully mock out all the numbers in the profile
response without this change:

```
// TESTRESPONSE[s/(?<=[" ])\d+(\.\d+)?/$body.$_path/]

Currently a `delete document` request against a non-existing index actually **creates** this index.
With this change the `delete document` no longer creates the previously non-existing index and throws an `index_not_found` exception instead.
However as discussed in https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/pull/15451#issuecomment-165772026, if an external version is explicitly used, the current behavior is preserved and the index is still created and the document is marked for deletion.
Fixes#15425
Native scripts have been replaced in documentation by implementing
a ScriptEngine and they were deprecated in 5.5.0. This commit
removes the native script infrastructure for 6.0.
closes#19966
This commit adds gcs credential settings to the elasticsearch keystore.
The setting name follows the same pattern as the s3 client settings,
beginning with `gcs.client.`, followed by the client name, and then the
setting name, in this case, `credentials_file`. Using the legacy service
file setting is also deprecated.
This PR adds a new thread pool type: `fixed_auto_queue_size`. This thread pool
behaves like a regular `fixed` threadpool, except that every
`auto_queue_frame_size` operations (default: 10,000) in the thread pool,
[Little's Law](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little's_law) is calculated and
used to adjust the pool's `queue_size` either up or down by 50. A minimum and
maximum is taken into account also. When the min and max are the same value, a
regular fixed executor is used instead.
The `SEARCH` threadpool is changed to use this new type of thread pool. However,
the min and max are both set to 1000, meaning auto adjustment is opt-in rather
than opt-out.
Resolves#3890
In scripts (at least some of the languages), the terms dictionary and
postings can be access with the special _index variable. This is for
very advanced use cases which want to do their own scoring. The problem
is segment level statistics must be recomputed for every document.
Additionally, this is not friendly to the terms index caching as the
order of looking up terms should be controlled by lucene.
This change removes _index from scripts. Anyone using it can and should
instead write a Similarity plugin, which is explicitly designed to allow
doing the calculations needed for a relevance score.
closes#19359
Today when an index is `read-only` the index is also blocked from
being deleted which sometimes is undesired since in-order to make
changes to a cluster indices must be deleted to free up space. This is
a likely scenario in a hosted environment when disk-space is limited to switch
indices read-only but allow deletions to free up space.
