Today we eagerly resolve unicast hosts. This means that if DNS changes,
we will never find the host at the new address. Moreover, a single host
failng to resolve causes startup to abort. This commit introduces lazy
resolution of unicast hosts. If a DNS entry changes, there is an
opportunity for the host to be discovered. Note that under the Java
security manager, there is a default positive cache of infinity for
resolved hosts; this means that if a user does want to operate in an
environment where DNS can change, they must adjust
networkaddress.cache.ttl in their security policy. And if a host fails
to resolve, we warn log the hostname but continue pinging other
configured hosts.
When doing DNS resolutions for unicast hostnames, we wait until the DNS
lookups timeout. This appears to be forty-five seconds on modern JVMs,
and it is not configurable. If we do these serially, the cluster can be
blocked during ping for a lengthy period of time. This commit introduces
doing the DNS lookups in parallel, and adds a user-configurable timeout
for these lookups.

You can use `Debug.explain(someObject)` in painless to throw an
`Error` that can't be caught by painless code and contains an
object's class. This is useful because painless's sandbox doesn't
allow you to call `someObject.getClass()`.
Closes#20263
The `type` parameter has always been accepted by the search_shards api, probably to make the api and its urls the same as search. Truth is that the type never had any effect, it's been ignored from day one while accepting it may make users think that we actually do something with it.
This commit removes support for the type parameter from the REST layer and the Java API. Backwards compatibility is maintained on the transport layer though.
The new added serialization test also uncovered a bug in the java API where the `ClusterSearchShardsRequest` could be created with no arguments, but the indices were required to be not null otherwise the request couldn't be serialized as `writeTo` would throw NPE. Fixed by setting a default value (empty array) for indices.
As part of #20925 and #21341 we added an "all-fields" mode to the
`query_string` and `simple_query_string`. This would expand the query to
all fields and automatically set `lenient` to true.
However, we should still allow a user to override the `lenient` flag to
whichever value they desire, should they add it in the request. This
commit does that.
* [DOCS] Show EC2's auto attribute
This documents the `aws_availability_zone` node attribute as part of the `discovery-ec2` plugin. Also fixes outdated usage of "cloud aws".
Implements a null coalescing operator in painless that looks like `?:`. This form was chosen to emulate Groovy's `?:` operator. It is different in that it only coalesces null values, instead of Groovy's `?:` operator which coalesces all falsy values. I believe that makes it the same as Kotlin's `?:` operator. In other languages this operator looks like `??` (C#) and `COALESCE` (SQL) and `:-` (bash).
This operator is lazy, meaning the right hand side is only evaluated at all if the left hand side is null.
By default, it is recommended to start bulk with a size of 10-15MB, and increase it gradually to get the right size for the environment. The example shows originally 1GB, which can lead to some users to just copy-paste the code snippet and start with excessively big sizes.
Backport of #21664 in master branch.
The first changed referred to an example of the 2.4 documentation. I removed the no longer relevant parts. We should consider adding a little more here.
The second change was just then->than in the suggest_mode popular section

There is an issue in the Grok Processor, where trace_match: true does not inject the _ingest._grok_match_index into the ingest-document when there is just one pattern provided. This is due to an optimization in the regex construction. This commit adds a check for when this is the case, and injects a static index value of "0", since there is only one pattern matched (at the first index into the patterns).
To make this clearer, more documentation was added to the grok-processor docs.
Fixes#21371.
This changes only the query parsing behavior to be strict when searching on
boolean values. We continue to accept the variety of values during index time,
but searches will only be parsed using `"true"` or `"false"`.
Resolves#21545
Today when parsing a stats request, Elasticsearch silently ignores
incorrect metrics. This commit removes lenient parsing of stats requests
for the nodes stats and indices stats APIs.
Relates #21417
We log deprecation events at "WARN", so setting it to `info` means the events
are still logged. It must be set to `error` in order to disable the logging.
This failure is due to the fact that we sort on store size, which is cached. So
it might happen that the store size that is taken into account is not the right
one, which makes the indices sorted in the wrong order. This changes the doc
example to sort on the number of docs instead.
