Currently is `java` is not in $PATH the preinst script fails
prematurely and prevents an appropriate message from getting displayed
to the user.
Make package installation more user friendly when java is not in
$PATH and add a test for it.
Also use a she-bang in the preinst script, as, at least in Debian,
maintainer scripts must start with the #! convention [1].

If `dpkg` fails, try and look for who has `/var/lib/dpkg/lock` open. If
it exists and is open then return a failure with information about who
has file open. This should help us debug #33762.
Closes#34309
With this change, `Version` no longer carries information about the qualifier,
we still need a way to show the "display version" that does have both
qualifier and snapshot. This is now stored by the build and red from `META-INF`.
#32281 adds elasticsearch-shard to provide bwc version of elasticsearch-translog for 6.x; have to remove elasticsearch-translog for 7.0

In #33241 we moved the file-based discovery functionality to core
Elasticsearch, but preserved the `discovery-file` plugin, and support for the
existing location of the `unicast_hosts.txt` file, for BWC reasons. This commit
completes the removal of this plugin.
New plugin for annotated_text field type.
Largely a copy of `text` field type but adds ability to include markdown-like syntax in the text.
The “AnnotatedText” class parses text+markup and converts into plain text and AnnotationTokens.
The annotation token values are injected unchanged alongside the regular text tokens to provide a
form of additional indexed overlay useful in positional searches and highlighting.
Annotated_text fields do not support fielddata as we want to phase this out.
Also includes a new "annotated" highlighter type that retains annotations and merges in search
hits as additional annotation markup.
Closes#29467
On some Linux distributions tmpfiles.d cleans files and
directories under /tmp if they haven't been accessed for
10 days.
This can cause problems for ML as ML is currently the only
component that uses the temp directory more than a few
seconds after startup. If you didn't open an ML job for
10 days and then tried to open one then the temp directory
would have been deleted.
This commit prevents the problem occurring in the case of
Elasticsearch being managed by systemd, as systemd private
temp directories are not subject to periodic cleanup (by
default).
Additionally there are now some docs to warn people about
the risk and suggest a manual mitigation for .tar.gz users.
This recreates a test that was added to the bats packaging tests
in #31343 but didn't make it over to the java project during when the
linux package tests were ported in #31943
When packages are installed but can not locate the java executable, they

* Remove BouncyCastle dependency from runtime
This commit introduces a new gradle project that contains
the classes that have a dependency on BouncyCastle. For
the default distribution, It builds a jar from those and
in puts it in a subdirectory of lib
(/tools/security-cli) along with the BouncyCastle jars.
This directory is then passed in the
ES_ADDITIONAL_CLASSPATH_DIRECTORIES of the CLI tools
that use these classes.
BouncyCastle is removed as a runtime dependency (remains
as a compileOnly one) from x-pack core and x-pack security.
Add packaging tests for the linux package distributions to the java test
project and remove them from bats. Most of the tests that lived in
30_deb_package.bats and 40_rpm_package.bats are applicable to both
package types and are combined into a single type of test case. Others
are separated out into separate cases to make their intent more clear
For #26741
Use the randomized runner from the test framework and add some basic
logging to make the packaging tests behave more similarly to how we use
junit in the rest of the project
Recreates the rest of the bats packaging tests for the tar distribution
in the java packaging test project, with support for both tar and zip
packaging, both oss and default flavors, and on Linux and Windows. Most
tests are followed fairly closely, some have either been dropped if
unnecessary or folded into others if convenient.
So the issue here is that we want to avoid setting vm.max_map_count if
it is already equal to the desired value (the bootstrap check requires
262144). The reason we want to avoid this is because in some use-cases
using sysctl to set this will fail. In this case, we want to enable
users to set this value externally and then allow that to cause using
sysctl to set the value to be skipped so that cases where using sysctl
will fail to no longer fail.
The package installation relies on java being in the path. If java is
not in the path, the tests fail at post-install time. This commit adds a
pre-install check to validate that java exists, and if it fails, the
package is never installed, and thus keeps a system clean, rather than
aborting at post-install and leaving behind a mess.
Closes#29665
This commit modifies the Sys V init startup scripts to only modify
vm.max_map_count if needed. In this case, needed means that the current
value is less than our default value of 262144 maps.
When subprocesses are started with ProcessBuilder, they're forked by the
java process directly rather than from a shell, which can be surprising
for our use case here in the packaging tests which is similar to
scripting.
This commit changes the tests to run their subprocess commands in a
shell, using the bash -c <script> syntax for commands on linux and using
the powershell.exe -Command <script> syntax for commands on windows.
This syntax on windows is essentially what the tests were already doing.
Ports the first couple tests for archive distributions from the old bats
project to the new java project that includes windows platforms,
consolidating them into one test method that tests that the
distributions can be extracted and their contents verified. Includes the
zip distributions which were not tested in the bats project.
This commit adds setting the homedir for the elasticsearch user to the
adduser command in the packaging preinstall script. While the
elasticsearch user is a system user, it is sometimes conventient to have
an existing homedir (even if it is not writeable). For example, running
cron as the elasticsearch user will try to change dir to the homedir.

Systemd overrides should happen through /etc/systemd/system, not
directly editing the service file. This commit removes marking the
service file as configuration for rpm and deb packages.
[test] add java packaging test project
Adds a project for building and running packaging tests written in java
for portability. The vagrant tasks use jars on the packagingTest
configuration, which are built in the same project. No tests are added
yet.
Corresponding changes are not made to :x-pack:qa:vagrant because the
java packaging tests will all be consolidated into one project.

Add the oss tar distribution to the packaging test plugin. Test the oss
tar distribution in the core packaging tests, and the non-oss tar
distribution in the x-pack packaging tests.
The packaging tests for Debian based distro is loooking
for docs in /usr/share/elasticsearch, but it should be
/usr/share/elasticsearch-oss for the oss package.
This commit makes x-pack a module and adds it to the default
distrubtion. It also creates distributions for zip, tar, deb and rpm
which contain only oss code.
Today we have a silent batch mode in the install plugin command when
standard input is closed or there is no tty. It appears that
historically this was useful when running tests where we want to accept
plugin permissions without having to acknowledge them. Now that we have
an explicit batch mode flag, this use-case is removed. The motivation
for removing this now is that there is another place where silent batch
mode arises and that is when a user attempts to install a plugin inside
a Docker container without keeping standard input open and attaching a
tty. In this case, the install plugin command will treat the situation
as a silent batch mode and therefore the user will never have the chance
to acknowledge the additional permissions required by a plugin. This
commit removes this silent batch mode in favor of using the --batch flag
when running tests and requiring the user to take explicit action to
acknowledge the additional permissions (either by leaving standard input
open and attaching a tty, or by passing the --batch flags themselves).
Note that with this change the user will now see a null pointer
exception when they try to install a plugin in a Docker container
without keeping standard input open and attaching a tty. This will be
addressed in an immediate follow-up, but because the implications of
that change are larger, they should be handled separately from this one.
This commit removes the ability to specify that a plugin requires the
keystore and instead creates the keystore on package installation or
when Elasticsearch is started for the first time. The reason that we opt
to create the keystore on package installation is to ensure that the
keystore has the correct permissions (the package installation scripts
run as root as opposed to Elasticsearch running as the elasticsearch
user) and to enable removing the keystore on package removal if the
keystore is not modified.
Previously a user could set a custom config path to a relative directory
using ES_PATH_CONF. In a previous change related to enabling GC logging
by default, we forced the working directory for Elasticsearch to be
ES_HOME. This had the impact of causing all relative paths to be
relative to ES_HOME, against the intent of the user. This commit
addresses this by making ES_PATH_CONF absolute before we switch the
working directory to ES_HOME.

[TEST] packaging: function to collect debug info
Sometimes when packaging tests fail in CI the test logs aren't enough to
tell what went wrong. This routine helps collect more info about the
state of the es installation at failure time
This pull request replaces the jvm-example plugin (from the jvm/site plugins era) by two new plugins: a custom-settings that shows how to register and use custom settings (including secured settings) in a plugin, and rest-handler plugin that shows how to register a rest handler.
The two plugins now reside in the plugins/examples project. They can serve as sample plugins for users, a special attention has been put on documentation. The packaging tests have been adapted to use the custom-settings plugin.
The current install_plugin() does not play well with meta plugins because
it always checks for the plugin's descriptor file.
This commit changes the install_plugin() so that it only runs the install plugin
command and lets the caller verify that the required files are correctly installed.
It also adds a install_meta_plugin() function to install meta plugins.
We have a packaging test that tries to install all plugins, and then
asserts that all expected plugins are installed. The expected plugins
are dervied from the list of plugins in the plugins sub-project. The
plugin transport-nio was recently added here, but explicit commands to
install and remove this plugin were never added. This commit addresses
this.
If you assert that a pattern of files exists but it matches more then
one file the "assert this file exists" code failed with a misleading
error message. This tests if the patter resolved to multiple files and
prints a better error message if it did.
For too long we have been groping around in the dark when faced with GC
issues because we rarely have GC logs at our disposal. This commit
enables GC logging by default out of the box.

Removing several occurrences of this typo in the docs and javadocs, seems to be
a common mistake. Corrections turn up once in a while in PRs, better to correct
some of this in one sweep.
When creating the keystore explicitly (from executing
elasticsearch-keystore create) or implicitly (for plugins that require
the keystore to be created on install) on an Elasticsearch package
installation, we are running as the root user. This leaves
/etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.keystore having the wrong ownership
(root:root) so that the elasticsearch user can not read the keystore on
startup. This commit adds setgid to /etc/elasticsearch on package
installation so that when executing this directory (as we would when
creating the keystore), we will end up with the correct ownership
(root:elasticsearch). Additionally, we set the permissions on the
keystore to be 660 so that the elasticsearch user via its group can read
this file on startup.
