The docs tests have recently been running much slower than before (see #49753).
The gist here is that with ILM/SLM we do a lot of unnecessary setup / teardown work on each
test. Compounded with the slightly slower cluster state storage mechanism, this causes the
tests to run much slower.
In particular, on RAMDisk, docs:check is taking
ES 7.4: 6:55 minutes
ES master: 16:09 minutes
ES with this commit: 6:52 minutes
on SSD, docs:check is taking
ES 7.4: ??? minutes
ES master: 32:20 minutes
ES with this commit: 11:21 minutes
Changes the find_file_structure response to include a CSV
ingest processor in the ingest pipeline it suggests.
Previously the Kibana file upload functionality parsed CSV
in the browser, but by parsing CSV in the ingest pipeline
it makes the Kibana file upload functionality more easily
interchangable with Filebeat such that the configurations
it creates can more easily be used to import data with the
same structure repeatedly in production.
* Reload secure settings with password (#43197)
If a password is not set, we assume an empty string to be
compatible with previous behavior.
Only allow the reload to be broadcast to other nodes if TLS is
enabled for the transport layer.
* Add passphrase support to elasticsearch-keystore (#38498)
This change adds support for keystore passphrases to all subcommands
of the elasticsearch-keystore cli tool and adds a subcommand for
changing the passphrase of an existing keystore.
The work to read the passphrase in Elasticsearch when
loading, which will be addressed in a different PR.
Subcommands of elasticsearch-keystore can handle (open and create)
passphrase protected keystores
When reading a keystore, a user is only prompted for a passphrase
only if the keystore is passphrase protected.
When creating a keystore, a user is allowed (default behavior) to create one with an
empty passphrase
Passphrase can be set to be empty when changing/setting it for an
existing keystore
Relates to: #32691
Supersedes: #37472
* Restore behavior for force parameter (#44847)
Turns out that the behavior of `-f` for the add and add-file sub
commands where it would also forcibly create the keystore if it
didn't exist, was by design - although undocumented.
This change restores that behavior auto-creating a keystore that
is not password protected if the force flag is used. The force
OptionSpec is moved to the BaseKeyStoreCommand as we will presumably
want to maintain the same behavior in any other command that takes
a force option.
* Handle pwd protected keystores in all CLI tools (#45289)
This change ensures that `elasticsearch-setup-passwords` and
`elasticsearch-saml-metadata` can handle a password protected
elasticsearch.keystore.
For setup passwords the user would be prompted to add the
elasticsearch keystore password upon running the tool. There is no
option to pass the password as a parameter as we assume the user is
present in order to enter the desired passwords for the built-in
users.
For saml-metadata, we prompt for the keystore password at all times
even though we'd only need to read something from the keystore when
there is a signing or encryption configuration.
* Modify docs for setup passwords and saml metadata cli (#45797)
Adds a sentence in the documentation of `elasticsearch-setup-passwords`
and `elasticsearch-saml-metadata` to describe that users would be
prompted for the keystore's password when running these CLI tools,
when the keystore is password protected.

* Elasticsearch keystore passphrase for startup scripts (#44775)
This commit allows a user to provide a keystore password on Elasticsearch
startup, but only prompts when the keystore exists and is encrypted.
The entrypoint in Java code is standard input. When the Bootstrap class is
checking for secure keystore settings, it checks whether or not the keystore
is encrypted. If so, we read one line from standard input and use this as the
password. For simplicity's sake, we allow a maximum passphrase length of 128
characters. (This is an arbitrary limit and could be increased or eliminated.
It is also enforced in the keystore tools, so that a user can't create a
password that's too long to enter at startup.)
In order to provide a password on standard input, we have to account for four
different ways of starting Elasticsearch: the bash startup script, the Windows
batch startup script, systemd startup, and docker startup. We use wrapper
scripts to reduce systemd and docker to the bash case: in both cases, a
wrapper script can read a passphrase from the filesystem and pass it to the
bash script.
In order to simplify testing the need for a passphrase, I have added a
has-passwd command to the keystore tool. This command can run silently, and
exit with status 0 when the keystore has a password. It exits with status 1 if
the keystore doesn't exist or exists and is unencrypted.
A good deal of the code-change in this commit has to do with refactoring
packaging tests to cleanly use the same tests for both the "archive" and the
"package" cases. This required not only moving tests around, but also adding
some convenience methods for an abstraction layer over distribution-specific
commands.
* Adjust docs for password protected keystore (#45054)
This commit adds relevant parts in the elasticsearch-keystore
sub-commands reference docs and in the reload secure settings API
doc.
* Fix failing Keystore Passphrase test for feature branch (#50154)
One problem with the passphrase-from-file tests, as written, is that
they would leave a SystemD environment variable set when they failed,
and this setting would cause elasticsearch startup to fail for other
tests as well. By using a try-finally, I hope that these tests will fail
more gracefully.
It appears that our Fedora and Ubuntu environments may be configured to
store journald information under /var rather than under /run, so that it
will persist between boots. Our destructive tests that read from the
journal need to account for this in order to avoid trying to limit the
output we check in tests.
* Run keystore management tests on docker distros (#50610)
* Add Docker handling to PackagingTestCase
Keystore tests need to be able to run in the Docker case. We can do this
by using a DockerShell instead of a plain Shell when Docker is running.
* Improve ES startup check for docker
Previously we were checking truncated output for the packaged JDK as
an indication that Elasticsearch had started. With new preliminary
password checks, we might get a false positive from ES keystore
commands, so we have to check specifically that the Elasticsearch
class from the Bootstrap package is what's running.
* Test password-protected keystore with Docker (#50803)
This commit adds two tests for the case where we mount a
password-protected keystore into a Docker container and provide a
password via a Docker environment variable.
We also fix a logging bug where we were logging the identifier for an
array of strings rather than the contents of that array.
* Add documentation for keystore startup prompting (#50821)
When a keystore is password-protected, Elasticsearch will prompt at
startup. This commit adds documentation for this prompt for the archive,
systemd, and Docker cases.

* Warn when unable to upgrade keystore on debian (#51011)
For Red Hat RPM upgrades, we warn if we can't upgrade the keystore. This
commit brings the same logic to the code for Debian packages. See the
posttrans file for gets executed for RPMs.
* Restore handling of string input
Adds tests that were mistakenly removed. One of these tests proved
we were not handling the the stdin (-x) option correctly when no
input was added. This commit restores the original approach of
reading stdin one char at a time until there is no more (-1, \r, \n)
instead of using readline() that might return null
* Apply spotless reformatting
* Use '--since' flag to get recent journal messages
When we get Elasticsearch logs from journald, we want to fetch only log
messages from the last run. There are two reasons for this. First, if
there are many logs, we might get a string that's too large for our
utility methods. Second, when we're looking for a specific message or
error, we almost certainly want to look only at messages from the last
execution.
Previously, we've been trying to do this by clearing out the physical
files under the journald process. But there seems to be some contention
over these directories: if journald writes a log file in between when
our deletion command deletes the file and when it deletes the log
directory, the deletion will fail.
It seems to me that we might be able to use journald's "--since" flag to
retrieve only log messages from the last run, and that this might be
less likely to fail due to race conditions in file deletion.
Unfortunately, it looks as if the "--since" flag has a granularity of
one-second. I've added a two-second sleep to make sure that there's a
sufficient gap between the test that will read from journald and the
test before it.

Today we are repeatedly checking if the current build is a snapshot
build or not by reading the system property build.snapshot. This commit
formalizes this by adding a build parameter to indicate whether or not
the current build is a snapshot build.
* Creates a top-level page for EQL in the ES reference.
This page contains a high-level introduction and will include a nav for other EQL docs pages as they're built.
* Creates a requirements page.
This page outlines the fields needed to use EQL in ES.
This commit enables autoscaling in docs tests based on snapshot
builds. This is done so that when the API docs are added to the docs,
then the cluster will have been started to enable autoscaling so these
APIs are available for testing.
In 2bb31fe (v0.6.0!) we added DEBUG-level logging to the default config of
action loggers "for easier debugging". This change to the default config lives
on to this day. It does not obviously make debugging any easier any more, but
it does result in a good deal of log noise sometimes. This commit removes this
special case from the default config.
Closes#51198
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
The way it was originally written, it sounds like
we are boosting at query time.
Of course, the effect is at query time,
but the point here is that boosting is done at index time
* [ML][Inference] add tags url param to GET (#51330)
Adds a new URL parameter, `tags` to the GET _ml/inference/<model_id> endpoint.
This parameter allows the list of models to be further reduced to those who contain all the provided tags.
The regex for the response to `GET _cat/health?v` in `getting-started.asciidoc`
requires `max_task_wait_time` to match `(-|\\d+(micros|ms|s))`, which doesn't
match times such as `3.9ms` that contain a decimal point. This commit adjusts
the regex to match times formatted like this too.

This commit merely adds the skeleton for the autoscaling project, adding
the basics to include the autoscaling module in the default
distribution, opt-in to code formatting, and a placeholder for the docs.
This change introduces a new feature for indices so that they can be
hidden from wildcard expansion. The feature is referred to as hidden
indices. An index can be marked hidden through the use of an index
setting, `index.hidden`, at creation time. One primary use case for
this feature is to have a construct that fits indices that are created
by the stack that contain data used for display to the user and/or
intended for querying by the user. The desire to keep them hidden is
to avoid confusing users when searching all of the data they have
indexed and getting results returned from indices created by the
system.
Hidden indices have the following properties:
* API calls for all indices (empty indices array, _all, or *) will not
return hidden indices by default.
* Wildcard expansion will not return hidden indices by default unless
the wildcard pattern begins with a `.`. This behavior is similar to
shell expansion of wildcards.
* REST API calls can enable the expansion of wildcards to hidden
indices with the `expand_wildcards` parameter. To expand wildcards
to hidden indices, use the value `hidden` in conjunction with `open`
and/or `closed`.
* Creation of a hidden index will ignore global index templates. A
global index template is one with a match-all pattern.
* Index templates can make an index hidden, with the exception of a
global index template.
* Accessing a hidden index directly requires no additional parameters.

Object fields cannot be used as features. At the moment _explain
API includes them and even worse it allows it does not error when

This commit omits object fields from the _explain API and also
adds an error if an object field is included or excluded.

Knowing about used analysis components and mapping types would be incredibly

Some field types also act as a proxy to know about feature usage of some APIs

completion suggester, respectively.
The version replacement for the code snippet should replace 7.6 with the current version,

* Adds support for geo-bounds filtering in geogrid aggregations (#50002)
It is fairly common to filter the geo point candidates in
geohash_grid and geotile_grid aggregations according to some
viewable bounding box. This change introduces the option of
specifying this filter directly in the tiling aggregation.
This is even more relevant to `geo_shape` where the bounds will restrict
the shape to be within the bounds
this optional `bounds` parameter is parsed in an equivalent fashion to
the bounds specified in the geo_bounding_box query.

* Move metadata storage to Lucene (#50907)
Today we split the on-disk cluster metadata across many files: one file for the metadata of each
index, plus one file for the global metadata and another for the manifest. Most metadata updates
only touch a few of these files, but some must write them all. If a node holds a large number of
indices then it's possible its disks are not fast enough to process a complete metadata update before timing out. In severe cases affecting master-eligible nodes this can prevent an election
from succeeding.
This commit uses Lucene as a metadata storage for the cluster state, and is a squashed version
of the following PRs that were targeting a feature branch:
* Introduce Lucene-based metadata persistence (#48733)
This commit introduces `LucenePersistedState` which master-eligible nodes
can use to persist the cluster metadata in a Lucene index rather than in
many separate files.
Relates #48701
* Remove per-index metadata without assigned shards (#49234)
Today on master-eligible nodes we maintain per-index metadata files for every
index. However, we also keep this metadata in the `LucenePersistedState`, and
only use the per-index metadata files for importing dangling indices. However
there is no point in importing a dangling index without any shard data, so we
do not need to maintain these extra files any more.
This commit removes per-index metadata files from nodes which do not hold any
shards of those indices.
Relates #48701
* Use Lucene exclusively for metadata storage (#50144)
This moves metadata persistence to Lucene for all node types. It also reenables BWC and adds
an interoperability layer for upgrades from prior versions.

* Write CS asynchronously on data-only nodes (#50782)
Writes cluster states out asynchronously on data-only nodes. The main reason for writing out
the cluster state at all is so that the data-only nodes can snap into a cluster, that they can do a
bit of bootstrap validation and so that the shard recovery tools work.
Cluster states that are written asynchronously have their voting configuration adapted to a non
existing configuration so that these nodes cannot mistakenly become master even if their node
role is changed back and forth.

This commit adds this refreshing to the `TransportPutLifecycleAction`
to allow this. It allows us to do things like change the configuration
values for a particular step, even when on that step (for example,
changing the rollover criteria while on the `check-rollover-ready` step).
There are more cases where the phase definition can be reread that just
the ones checked here (for example, removing an action that has already
been passed), and those will be added in subsequent work.

This commit changes the default behavior for
xpack.security.ssl.diagnose.trust when running in a FIPS 140 JVM.
More specifically, when xpack.security.fips_mode.enabled is true:
- If xpack.security.ssl.diagnose.trust is not explicitly set, the
default value of it becomes false and a log message is printed
on info level, notifying of the fact that the TLS/SSL diagnostic
messages are not enabled when in a FIPS 140 JVM.
- If xpack.security.ssl.diagnose.trust is explicitly set, the value of
it is honored, even in FIPS mode.
This is relevant only for 7.x where we support Java 8 in which
SunJSSE can still be used as a FIPS 140 provider for TLS. SunJSSE
in FIPS mode, disallows the use of other TrustManager implementations
than the one shipped with SunJSSE.

Adds support for the `offset` parameter to the `date_histogram` source
of composite aggs. The `offset` parameter is supported by the normal
`date_histogram` aggregation and is useful for folks that need to
measure things from, say, 6am one day to 6am the next day.
This is implemented by creating a new `Rounding` that knows how to
handle offsets and delegates to other rounding implementations. That
implementation doesn't fully implement the `Rounding` contract, namely
`nextRoundingValue`. That method isn't used by composite aggs so I can't
be sure that any implementation that I add will be correct. I propose to
leave it throwing `UnsupportedOperationException` until I need it.

Adds a 'text analysis overview' page to the analysis topic docs.
The goals of this page are:
* Concisely summarize the analysis process while avoiding in-depth concepts, tutorials, or API examples
* Explain why analysis is important, largely through highlighting problems with full-text searches missing analysis
* Highlight how analysis can be used to improve search results
The Analysis docs mention including a default analyzer in the index settings. However, no example snippet is included.
This adds an example snippet that users can easily copy and adjust.
