This change adds a strict mode for xcontent parsing on the rest layer. The strict mode will be off by default for 5.x and in a separate commit will be enabled by default for 6.0. The strict mode, which can be enabled by setting `http.content_type.required: true` in 5.x, will require that all incoming rest requests have a valid and supported content type header before the request is dispatched. In the non-strict mode, the Content-Type header will be inspected and if it is not present or not valid, we will continue with auto detection of content like we have done previously.
The content type header is parsed to the matching XContentType value with the only exception being for plain text requests. This value is then passed on with the content bytes so that we can reduce the number of places where we need to auto-detect the content type.
As part of this, many transport requests and builders were updated to provide methods that
accepted the XContentType along with the bytes and the methods that would rely on auto-detection have been deprecated.
In the non-strict mode, deprecation warnings are issued whenever a request with body doesn't provide the Content-Type header.

By default, the JVM GC log file grows without
limitation. This is inconvenient for a long running
process like Elasticsearch.
With this commit we add an example configuration
for a rotating GC log in `conig/jvm.options`.
For certain situations, end-users need the base path for Elasticsearch
logs. Exposing this as a property is better than hard-coding the path
into the logging configuration file as otherwise the logging
configuration file could easily diverge from the Elasticsearch
configuration file. Additionally, Elasticsearch will only have
permissions to write to the log directory configured in the
Elasticsearch configuration file. This commit adds a property that
exposes this base path.
One use-case for this is configuring a rollover strategy to retain logs
for a certain period of time. As such, we add an example of this to the
documentation.
Additionally, we expose the property es.logs.cluster_name as this is
used as the name of the log files in the default configuration.
Finally, we expose es.logs.node_name in cases where node.name is
explicitly set in case users want to include the node name as part of
the name of the log files.

Right now closing a shard looks like it strands refresh listeners,
causing tests like
`delete/50_refresh/refresh=wait_for waits until changes are visible in search`
to fail. Here is a build that fails:
https://elasticsearch-ci.elastic.co/job/elastic+elasticsearch+multi_cluster_search+multijob-darwin-compatibility/4/console
This attempts to fix the problem by implements `Closeable` on
`RefreshListeners` and rejecting listeners when closed. More importantly
the act of closing the instance flushes all pending listeners
so we shouldn't have any stranded listeners on close.
Because it was needed for testing, this also adds the number of
pending listeners to the `CommonStats` object and all API to which
that flows: `_cat/nodes`, `_cat/indices`, `_cat/shards`, and
`_nodes/stats`.
Netty plays a lot of games with recycling byte buffers in thread local
caches, and using a pooled byte buffer allocator to reduce pressure on
the garbage collector.
The recycler in particular appears to be fraught with peril. It appears
that there are circumstances where the recycler does not recycle quickly
enough and can exceed its capacity leading to heap exhaustion and out of
memory errors. If you spend a few minutes reading the history of the
recycler on the Netty GitHub issues, it appears it has been nothing but
a source of trouble, and the project itself has an open issue that
proposes disabling by default and possibly even removing the recycler.
The pooled byte buffer allocator has problems itself. It sizes the pool
based on the number of runtime processors and can indeed grab a very
large percentage of the heap (in some cases 50% or more). Additionally,
the Netty project continues to struggle with leaks here.
We are seeing users struggle with issues in 5.x that I think are largely
driven by some of the problems here with Netty.
This change proposes to disable the recycler, and to disable the pooled
byte buffer allocator. I think that disabling these features will return
some of the stablity that these features appear to be losing us.
I have done performance testing on my workstation with disabling these
and I do not see a difference in performance. I propose that we make
this change in master and let some nightly benchmarks run to confirm
that there is not a difference in performance. If we are comfortable
with the performance changes, I propose backporting this to all active
branches.

This change is the first towards providing the ability to store
sensitive settings in elasticsearch. It adds the
`elasticsearch-keystore` tool, which allows managing a java keystore.
The keystore is loaded upon node startup in Elasticsearch, and used by
the Setting infrastructure when a setting is configured as secure.
There are a lot of caveats to this PR. The most important is it only
provides the tool and setting infrastructure for secure strings. It does
not yet provide for keystore passwords, keypairs, certificates, or even
convert any existing string settings to secure string settings. Those
will all come in follow up PRs. But this PR was already too big, so this
at least gets a basic version of the infrastructure in.
The two main things to look at. The first is the `SecureSetting` class,
which extends `Setting`, but removes the assumption for the raw value of the
setting to be a string. SecureSetting provides, for now, a single
helper, `stringSetting()` to create a SecureSetting which will return a
SecureString (which is like String, but is closeable, so that the
underlying character array can be cleared). The second is the
`KeyStoreWrapper` class, which wraps the java `KeyStore` to provide a
simpler api (we do not need the entire keystore api) and also extend
the serialized format to add metadata needed for loading the keystore
with no assumptions about keystore type (so that we can change this in
the future) as well as whether the keystore has a password (so that we
can know whether prompting is necessary when we add support for keystore
passwords).
* Remove a checked exception, replacing it with `ParsingException`.
* Remove all Parser classes for the yaml sections, replacing them with static methods.

I did not rewrite the parsers using `ObjectParser` because I don't think it is worth it right now.
A previous fix for the handling of paths on Windows related to paths
containing multiple spaces introduced a issue where if JAVA_HOME ends
with a backslash, then Elasticsearch will refuse to start. This is not a
critical bug as a workaround exists (remove the trailing backslash), but
should be fixed nevertheless. This commit addresses this situation while
not regressing the previous fix.

Elasticsearch can be run in a few different ways:
- from the command line on Linux and Windows
- as a service on Linux and Windows
on both 32-bit client and 64-bit server VMs. We strive for a great
out-of-the-box experience any of these combinations but today it is
lacking on 32-bit client JVMs and on the Windows service. There are two
deficiencies that arise:
- on any 32-bit client JVM we fail to start out of the box because we
force the server JVM in jvm.options
- when installing the Windows service, the thread stack size must be
specified in jvm.options
This commit attempts to address these deficiencies.
We should continue to force the server JVM because there are systems
where the server JVM is not active by default (e.g., the 32-bit JDK on
Windows). This does mean that if a user tries to run with a client JVM
they will see a failure message at startup but this is the best that we
can do if we want to continue to force the server JVM. Thus, this commit
at least documents this situation.
To improve the situation with installing the Windows service, this
commit adds a default setting for the thread stack size. This default is
chosen based on the default thread stack size across all 64-bit server
JVMs. This means that if a user tries to run with a 32-bit JVM they
could otherwise see significantly higher memory usage (this situation is
complicated, it's really only on Windows where the extra memory usage is
egregious, but cutting into the 32-bit address space on any system is
bad). So this commit makes it so that the out-of-the-box experience is
improved for the Windows service on 64-bit server JVMs and we document
the need to adjust this setting on 32-bit JVMs.
Again, we are focusing on the out-of-the-box experience here and this
means optimizing for the best experience on any 64-bit server JVM as
this covers the vast majority of the user base. The users that are on
32-bit JVMs will suffer a little bit but at least now any user on any
64-bit server JVM can start Elasticsearch out of the box.
Finally, we fix some references to the jvm.options documentation.

Our default pattern layout truncates log messages. This is to avoid

Adds a version constant for it, bwc indices, and a vagrant upgrade-from

them during the backwards testing.
Finally, this skips the "Shrink index via API" test because it fails
consistently for me. Inconsistently for CI, but consistently for me.
I'll work on making it consistent tomorrow.
On some systems these utilities are in /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-sysctl
and /usr/sbin/sysctl, and on others the /usr is dropped. This commit
accounts for that fact.
Our docs claim that we set vm.max_map_count automatically. This is not
quite the case. The story is that on SysV init we set vm.max_map_count
each time the service starts, which is good. On systemd, we create a
sysctl.d conf file that sets vm.map_max_count, but this is only
meaningful if the system is rebooted after package install. This commit
modifies the post-install script so that we run systemd-sysctl so that
the vm.max_map_count change occurs after package install without a
reboot.

All plugins currently have their own licenses dir for the
dependencyLicenses task, but core disables this and has the check inside
distribution. This may have been better for maven, but for
gradle it makes more sense to just use the dependencyLicenses task that
automatically exists inside :core, and remove the hacked up version that
is inside distribution.
At one point in the past when moving out the rest tests from core to
their own subproject, we had multiple test classes which evenly split up
the tests to run. However, we simplified this and went back to a single
test runner to have better reproduceability in tests. This change
removes the remnants of that multiplexing support.
On ubuntu 14.04, which uses upstart, where as our debian package uses
sysvinit, there is no stdout/stderr message printed when starting up,
because the start-stop-daemon swallows it.
As Elasticsearch is started to daemonize, we can remove the background
flag from the start-stop-daemon and thus see, if the system does not have
enough memory for starting up - something that happens often on VMs, since
Elasticsearch 5.0 uses 2gb by default instead of one.

We have a "HUGE HACK" that allows us to publish zip artifacts to
Sonatype's OSS repository without javadoc and source jars. We don't
include those jars because the zip is just a repackaging of the
core and module jars for which we already publish the javadoc and
source jars. So we have a hack to publish the zip artifact when the
pom says the project is of type 'pom'.
I'm not sure why we need this pom instead of the pom generated by
nebula, but if we are going to have it then we need to populate it
with appropriate stuff like project name, description, and url.
* Build: Remove old maven deploy support
This change removes the old maven deploy that we have in parallel to
maven-publish, and makes maven-publish fully work with publishing to
maven local. Using `gradle publishToMavenLocal` should be used to
publish to .m2.
Note that there is an unfortunate hack that means for
zip artifacts we must first create/publish a dummy pom file, and then
follow that with the real pom file. It would be nice to have the pom
file contains packaging=zip, but maven central then requires sources and
javadocs. But our zips are really just attached artifacts, so we already
set the packaging type to pom for our zip files. This change just works
around a limitation of the underlying maven publishing library which
silently skips attached artifacts when the packaging type is set to pom.

When uninstalling or upgrading elasticsearch using the RPM package some empty directories remain on the filesystem:
/usr/share/elasticsearch/bin
/usr/share/elasticsearch/lib
/usr/share/elasticsearch/modules
/usr/share/elasticsearch/modules/foo
Having empty directories in modules can prevent elasticsearch to start after an upgrade: the plugins service expects to find a plugin-descriptor.properties file in every sub directory of modules.
This PR cleans things a bit so that these empty directories are removed on upgrade/removal like it was in 2.x.
When upgrading elasticsearch using the RPM package, the scripts directory is removed if it's empty but it won't be recreated by the upgraded package. But after that the service won't start because the scripts dir is missing.
This commit modifies the logger names within Elasticsearch to be the
fully-qualified class name as opposed removing the org.elasticsearch
prefix and dropping the class name. This change separates the root
logger from the Elasticsearch loggers (they were equated from the
removal of the org.elasticsearch prefix) and enables log levels to be
set at the class level (instead of the package level).
Relates #20457
Today we add a prefix when logging within Elasticsearch. This prefix
contains the node name, and index and shard-level components if
appropriate.
Due to some implementation details with Log4j 2 , this does not work for
integration tests; instead what we see is the node name for the last
node to startup. The implementation detail here is that Log4j 2 there is
only one logger for a name, message factory pair, and the key derived
from the message factory is the class name of the message factory. So,
when the last node starts up and starts setting prefixes on its message
factories, it will impact the loggers for the other nodes.
Additionally, the prefixes are lost when logging an exception. This is
due to another implementation detail in Log4j 2. Namely, since we log
exceptions using a parameterized message, Log4j 2 decides that that
means that we do not want to use the message factory that we have
provided (the prefix message factory) and so logs the exception without
the prefix.
This commit fixes both of these issues.

This makes large changes to our rest test infrastructure, allowing us
to write junit tests that test a running cluster via the rest client.
It does this by splitting ESRestTestCase into two classes:
* ESRestTestCase is the superclass of all tests that use the rest client
to interact with a running cluster.
* ESClientYamlSuiteTestCase is the superclass of all tests that use the
rest client to run the yaml tests. These tests are shared across all
official clients, thus the `ClientYamlSuite` part of the name.
Some tests still start http implicitly or miss configuring the transport clients correctly.
This commit fixes all remaining tests and adds a depdenceny to `transport-netty` from

The distributions had their own copies of these extra files, which was a
carry over from maven. This change removes the duplicate files and
copies them from the root of the project.

This change tweaks the metadata version associated with the deb and rpm
packages. For rpm, dashes are allowed in versions, so we can use the
version as it already exists. For rpm, dashes are not allowed, so this
uses underscores instead. This only affects prerelease versions (eg
alpha/beta/rc), and usually someone doesn't specify the version, so the
inconsistency doesn't matter that much.
The default jvm.options file ships with the -server flag to force the
server VM on systems where the server VM is not the default. However,
the method of starting the JVM via the Windows service does not support
the command-line flags for selecting the VM because it starts from a
DLL that is specific to the server or client VM. Thus, we need to
filter these options from the jvm.options configuration file when
installing the Windows service.

Today when parsing settings during bootstrap, we add a system property
for every Elasticsearch setting. Additionally, settings can be set via
system properties. This commit simplifies this situation.
- settings are no longer propogated to system properties
- system properties can not be used to set settings
- the "es." prefix on settings is no longer required (nor permitted)
- test logging has a dedicated system property (tests.logger.level)

This change makes `gradle run` use the full zip distribution. Arguably
we could make it do the same when run inside plugins, but I started out
with this simple change. I am open to moving it into the RunTask itself
so that plugins will do this as well.
After considerable discussion, we have elected to set the default min
heap to 256m and the default max heap to 2g. This is to balance the
desire for a good out-of-the-box performance experience (default max
heap of 2g) with a good out-of-the-box experience running on machines
with limited resources or running multiple instances on a single modern
developer laptop (default min heap of 1g).
Benchmarking with the geonames data set shows that Elasticsearch truly
needs 2g of heap or the heap is a bottleneck for indexing rates. If our
goal is to satisfy the out-of-the-box-experience, we should prioritize
the out-of-the-box performance experience. Thus, the default heap should
be 2g until smaller heaps are not the bottleneck for indexing small data
sets.
This commit fixes the Debian package requires clause for bash. For the
RPM it is okay to specify the binary, but for the Debian package the
package name must be specified.
Today we encourage users to set their minimum and maximum heap settings
equal to each other to prevent the heap from resizing. Yet, the default
heap settings do not start Elasticsearch in this fashion. This commit
addresses this discrepancy by setting the default min heap to '512m' and
the default max heap to the default min heap.

This commit adds a hard requirement to the RPM and Debian packages for
/bin/bash to be present, and adds a note regarding this to the migration
docs.

In the plugin script we set the setting default.path.conf to control the
path to the configuration file. But the default directory might not
exist in which case we can run into exceptions. This commit restores a
guard against this directory not existing.
This commit switches the command-line scripts to use bash instead of sh
so that we can take advantage of features that bash provides like
arrays.

In 7d1fd17172 the parsing of command-line
properties in the plugin script was removed. That commit missed
additional parsing of the properties for es.default.path.conf. This
commit removes that parsing and also replaces the use of eval with exec.

The plugin script parses command-line options looking for Java system
properties and extracts these arguments to pass to the java command when
starting the JVM. Since elasticsearch-plugin allows arbitrary user
arguments to the JVM via ES_JAVA_OPTS, this parsing is unnecessary. This
commit removes this unnecessary

In preparation for a unified release process, we need to be able to
generate the pom files independently of trying to actually publish. This
change adds back the maven-publish plugin just for that purpose. The
nexus plugin still exists for now, so that we do not break snapshots,
but that can be removed at a later time once snapshots are happenign
through the unified tools. Note I also changed the dir jars are written
into so that all our artifacts are under build/distributions.
Today we softly warn about running with the client VM. However, we
should really refuse to start in production mode if running with the
client VM as the performance of the client VM is too devastating for a
server application. This commit adds an option to jvm.options to ensure
that we are starting with the server VM (on all 32-bit non-Windows
platforms on server-class machines (2+ CPUs, 2+ GB physical RAM) this is
the default and on all 64-bit platforms this is the only option) and
adds a bootstrap check for the client VM.
Relates #18155
Today we specify the client option for the JVM when executing plugin
commands. Yet, this option does nothing on a 64-bit capable JDK as such
JDKs always select the Hotspot server VM. And for 32-bit JDKs, running
plugin commands with the server VM is okay. Thus, we should just remove
this unnecessary flag and just let the default VM be selected.

The RPM init script did not include the check for `bin/elasticsearch` being
executable. This fix adds this checks and makes the tests pass.
This fixes the init script, so the tests pass on centos-6 again.
Today when restarting Elasticsearch using the start-stop-daemon on
Debian-based systems using System V init, we sleep for one second
between the process successfully stopping and starting the process
again. This sleep is unnecessary as the stop function retries forever
until the previous instance successfully terminates. This commit removes
that unncessary sleep.

Fix exit code
Exit with proper exit code (1) and an error message if elasticsearch executable binary does not exists or has insufficient permissions to execute.
This changes our packaging to be explicit about the permissions of files
and directories in the tar.gz, rpm, and deb packages. This is to protect
against a user having an incorrectly set umask when installing.
Additionally, plugins that are installed now have their permissions set
by the plugin installation so that plugins that may have been packaged
with incorrect permissions are secured.

In Elasticsearch 5.0.0, by default unquoted field names in JSON will be
rejected. This can cause issues, however, for documents that were
already indexed with unquoted field names. To alleviate this, a system
property has been added that can be enabled so migration can occur.
This system property will be removed in Elasticsearch 6.0.0
Resolves#17674
This allows for a local file based deploy without needed nexus
auth information.
Also signing of packages has been added, either via gradle.properties
or using system properties as a fallback.
The property build.repository allows to configure another endpoint if no
snapshot build is done.
Fix creation of .asc file for tar.gz distribution

This commit simplifies the default JVM options that ship with
Elasticsearch. In particular, expert settings that were previously
configurable via environment variables have been removed from the
default configuration file. Further, the heap size settings have been
moved to the top of the file with a clearer message that is in
concordance with their importance.
Closes#17714
This commit sets the bad_env_var to a default value of 0 so that in case
no bad environment variables are encountered the variable is still

JAVA_OPTS is not a built-in mechanism for passing options to the JVM but
many people think that it is. We do not respect JAVA_OPTS, but this
commit adds a warning if it is set in case the end-user thinks that it
will affect Elasticsearch.
This commit renames the function that parses JVM options in
bin/elasticsearch from jvm_options to parse_jvm_options. The reason for
the rename is because a for-loop variable was shadowing the name of this
function and changing the function name further clarifies the purpose of
the function.
This commit fixes the placement of a comment in bin/elasticsearch. The
comment was made out of place by the addition of a function definition
but order is restored.
This commit adds a new configuration file jvm.options to centralize and
simplify management of JVM options. This separates the configuration of
the JVM from the packaging scripts (bin/elasticsearch*, bin/service.bat,
and init.d/elasticsearch) simplifying end-user operational management of
custom JVM options.
* upgrades numerics to new Point format
* updates geo api changes
* adds GeoPointDistanceRangeQuery as XGeoPointDistanceRangeQuery
* cuts over to ES GeoHashUtils
This commit quotes the variable that contains the path to the java
binary. Without these quotes, when the arguments to eval are evaluated
the existing quotes will be removed leading to unquoted use of the path
to the java binary. If this path contains spaces, evaluation will fail.
