If we conditionally do random things, e.g. initialize a node only after the first test, we have to make sure that we unconditionally create a new seed calling random.nextLong(), then initialize the node under a private randomness context. This makes sure that any random usage through Randomness.get() will retrieve the proper random instance through RandomizedContext.current().getRandom(). When running under private randomness, the context will return the Random instance that was created with the provided seed (forked from the main random instance) rather than the main Random that's exposed to tests as well. Otherwise tests become non repeatable because that initialization part happens only before the first executed test.
Moved field values `toXContent` logic to `GetField` (from `GetResult`), which outputs its own fields, and can also parse them now. Also added `fromXContent` to `GetResult` and `GetResponse`.
The start object and end object for `GetResponse` output have been moved to `GetResult#toXContent`, from the corresponding rest action. This makes it possible to have `toXContent` and `fromXContent` completely symmetric, as parsing requires looping till an end object is found which is weird when the corresponding `toXContent` doesn't print that out.
This also introduces the foundation for testing retrieval of _source and stored field values.
Sequence BWC logic consists of two elements:
1) Wire level BWC using stream versions.
2) A changed to the global checkpoint maintenance semantics.
For the sequence number infra to work with a mixed version clusters, we have to consider situation where the primary is on an old node and replicas are on new ones (i.e., the replicas will receive operations without seq#) and also the reverse (i.e., the primary sends operations to a replica but the replica can't process the seq# and respond with local checkpoint). An new primary with an old replica is a rare because we do not allow a replica to recover from a new primary. However, it can occur if the old primary failed and a new replica was promoted or during primary relocation where the source primary is treated as a replica until the master starts the target.
1) Old Primary & New Replica - this case is easy as is taken care of by the wire level BWC. All incoming requests will have their seq# set to `UNASSIGNED_SEQ_NO`, which doesn't confuse the local checkpoint logic (keeping it at `NO_OPS_PERFORMED`)
2) New Primary & Old replica - this one is trickier as the global checkpoint service currently takes all in sync replicas into consideration for the global checkpoint calculation. In order to deal with old replicas, we change the semantics to say all *new node* in sync replicas. That means the replicas on old nodes don't count for the global checkpointing. In this state the seq# infra is not fully operational (you can't search on it, because copies may miss it) but it is maintained on shards that can support it. The old replicas will have to go through a file based recovery at some point and will get the seq# information at that point. There is still an edge case where a new primary fails and an old replica takes over. I'lll discuss this one with @ywelsch as I prefer to avoid it completely.
This PR also re-enables the BWC tests which were disabled. As such it had to fix any BWC issue that had crept in. Most notably an issue with the removal of the `timestamp` field in #21670.
The commit also includes a fix for the default value of the seq number field in replicated write requests (it was 0 but should be -2), that surface some other minor bugs which are fixed as well.
Last - I added some debugging tools like more sane node names and forcing replication request to implement a `toString`
If you write a yaml test with a `warnings` section in a `do` block
that doesn't also have a corresponding `skip` section for `warnings`
then client test runners that don't support `warnings` will fail.
This causes the elasticsearch build to fail so we catch these errors
earlier.

Changes the build to recognize `NORELEASE` as well as `NOCOMMIT` to
mean the same thing as `norelease` and `nocommit` respectively. This
is useful because people have been using them that way but haven't
realized that only the lowercase versions worked.
This also explicitly forbids silly things like `NoReLeAsE` and
`noCOMMIT`, failing the build and telling you to spell them properly.
REST tests use the default OOTB low/high disk watermarks of 85%/90%, which can make some tests fail if run on a machine with a fuller disk. This commit changes the watermarks in the same way as in IntegTestCase so that they're essentially ignored.
Add indices and filter information to search shards api output
The search shards api returns info about which shards are going to be hit by executing a search with provided parameters: indices, routing, preference. Indices can also be aliases, which can also hold filters. The output includes an array of shards and a summary of all the nodes the shards are allocated on. This commit adds a new indices section to the search shards output that includes one entry per index, where each index can be associated with an optional filter in case the index was hit through a filtered alias.
This is relevant since we have moved parsing of alias filters to the coordinating node.

Today there is no way to get notified if a node is disconnected. Client code
must poll the TransportClient constantly to detect that a node is not connected
anymore in order to react and add new nodes or notify altering etc. For instance
if a hostname gets resolved to an IP but that host is disconnected clients want
to reconnect by resolving the hostname again which is a common situation in cloud
environments.
Closes#21424
This commit adds the ability to support running with plugins in tests that make use of
backwards compatibility nodes. This can be used to test rolling upgrades with plugins
to ensure they do not cause issues during a rolling upgrade of elasticsearch.
In #21348 the command executed to run the packaging tests has been changed to "sudo -E bats ...", forcing all environment variables from the vagrant user to be passed to the `sudo` command. This breaks a test on opensuse-13 (the one where it checks that elasticsearch cannot be started when `java` is not found) because all the PATH from the user is passed to the sudo command.
This commit restores the previous behavior while allowing only necessary testing environment variables to be passed using a /etc/sudoers.d file.
JDK9 removed pathname canonicalization when constructing FilePermission objects, which breaks some of the FilePermissions added by Elasticsearch. This commit adds the system property jdk.io.permissionsUseCanonicalPath which makes JDK9 behave like JDK8 w.r.t. FilePermission objects (see #21534).
Today when a node starts, we create dynamic socket permissions based on
the configured HTTP ports and transport ports. If no ports are
configured, we use the default port ranges. When a tribe node starts, a
tribe node creates an internal node client for connecting to each remote
cluster. If neither an explicit HTTP port nor transport ports were
specified, the default port ranges are large enough for the tribe node
and its internal node clients. If an explicit HTTP port or transport
port was specified for the tribe node, then socket permissions for those
ports will be created, but not for the internal node clients. Whether
the internal node clients have explicit ports specified, or attempt to
bind within the default range, socket permissions for these will not
have been created and the internal node clients will hit a permissions
issue when attempting to bind. This commit addresses this issue by also
accounting for tribe nodes when creating the dynamic socket
permissions. Additionally, we add our first real integration test for
tribe nodes.

This commit changes the current :elactisearch:qa:vagrant build file and transforms it into a Gradle plugin in order to reuse it in other projects.
Most of the code from the build.gradle file has been moved into the VagrantTestPlugin class. To avoid duplicated VMs when running vagrant tests, the Gradle plugin sets the following environment variables before running vagrant commands:
VAGRANT_CWD: absolute path to the folder that contains the Vagrantfile
VAGRANT_PROJECT_DIR: absolute path to the Gradle project that use the VagrantTestPlugin
The VAGRANT_PROJECT_DIR is used to share project folders and files with the vagrant VM. These folders and files are exported when running the task `gradle vagrantSetUp` which:
- collects all project archives dependencies and copies them into `${project.buildDir}/bats/archives`
- copy all project bats testing files from 'src/test/resources/packaging/tests' into `${project.buildDir}/bats/tests`
- copy all project bats utils files from 'src/test/resources/packaging/utils' into `${project.buildDir}/bats/utils`
It is also possible to inherit and grab the archives/tests/utils files from project dependencies using the plugin configuration:
apply plugin: 'elasticsearch.vagrant'
esvagrant {
inheritTestUtils true|false
inheritTestArchives true|false
inheritTests true|false
}
dependencies {
// Inherit Bats test utils from :qa:vagrant project
bats project(path: ':qa:vagrant', configuration: 'bats')
}
The folders `${project.buildDir}/bats/archives`, `${project.buildDir}/bats/tests` and `${project.buildDir}/bats/utils` are then exported to the vagrant VMs and mapped to the BATS_ARCHIVES, BATS_TESTS and BATS_UTILS environnement variables.
The following Gradle tasks have also be renamed:
* gradle vagrantSetUp
This task copies all the necessary files to the project build directory (was `prepareTestRoot`)
* gradle vagrantSmokeTest
This task starts the VMs and echoes a "Hello world" within each VM (was: `smokeTest`)
We currently have a lot of log messages in our CI output like

This changes these messages to be logged at the DEBUG level, so they
will not show up by default.
This change simply makes the level of the ant timestamp for waiting on
the integ test cluster echo at the info level instead of warn (the
default) so that it is only output when running with gradle --info, or
when the wait condition fails.
Today we still have a leftover from older percolators where lucene
query instances where created ahead of time and rewritten later.
This `LateParsingQuery` was resolving `now()` when it's really used which we
don't need anymore. As a side-effect this failed to execute some highlighting
queries when they get rewritten since at that point `now` access it not permitted
anymore to prevent bugs when queries get cached.
Closes#21295
Dependencies are currently marked as non-transitive in generated POM files by adding a wildcard (*) exclusion. This breaks compatibility with the dependency manager Apache Ivy as it incorrectly translates POMs with * excludes to Ivy XML with * excludes which results in the main artifact being excluded as well (see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-1531). To stay compatible with the current release of Ivy this commit uses explicit excludes for each transitive artifact instead to ensure that the main artifact is not excluded. This should be revisited when we upgrade Gradle to a higher version as the current one (2.13) as Gradle automatically translates non-transitive dependencies to * excludes in 2.14+.
Since we now validate all consumed request parameter, users can't specify
`_cat/nodes?full_id=true|false` anymore since this parameter is consumed late.
This commit adds a test for this parameter and consumes it before request is processed.
Closes#21266
Setting `discovery.initial_state_timeout: 0s` to make `discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes: N`
work reliably can cause issues in clusters that rely on state recovery once the cluster is available.
This change makes the use or `discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes` optional for clusters where this behavior is desirable.
Lucene 6.3 is expected to be released in the next weeks so it'd be good to give
it some integration testing. I had to upgrade randomized-testing too so that
both Lucene and Elasticsearch are on the same version.
Today we only use a single node to send requests to when we run REST tests.
In some cases we have more than one node (ie. in the BWC case) where we should
send requests to all nodes in a round-robin fashion. This change passes all
available node endpoints to the rest test.
Additionally, this change adds the setting of `discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes`
to the cluster formation forcing the nodes to wait for all other nodes until the cluster
is formed. This allows for a more realistic master election and allows all master eligable
nodes to become master while before always the first node in the cluster became the master.
This also adds logging to each test run to log the master nodes version and the minimum node
version in the cluster to help debugging BWC test failures.
This fixes our cluster formation task to run REST tests against a mixed version cluster.
Yet, due to some limitations in our test framework `indices.rollover` tests are currently
disabled for the BWC case since they select the current master as the merge node which
happens to be a BWC node and we can't relocate all shards to it since the primaries are on
a higher version node. This will be fixed in a followup.
Closes#21142
Note: This has been cherry-picked from 5.0 and fixes several rest tests
as well as a BWC break in `OsStats.java`
Today the request interceptor can't support async calls since the response
of the async call would execute on a different thread ie. a client or listener
thread. This means in-turn that the intercepted handler is not executed with the
thread it was supposed to run and therefor can, if it's executing blocking
operations, potentially deadlock an entire server.

When running `gradle run`, a developer usually intends to get a running
instance as if they had run elasticsearch from the command line. This is
different than the isolated environment we use for integration testing
plugins. This change switches the run task to use the zip distribution,
so that all modules included in the normal distribution are included.
Cleaning up a few remaining occurences of using junits ExpectedException rule in
favor of using LuceneTestCase#expectThrows() which is more concise and versatile.
This change adds a overloaded `XContentMapValues#filter` method that returns
a function enclosing the compiled automatons that can be reused across filter
calls. This for instance prevents compiling automatons over and over again when
hits are filtered or in the SourceFieldMapper for each document.

Settings updates are important to be able to help and administer a cluster in distress. We shouldn't block it due to circuit breakers. An extreme example is where we are actually trying to increase and unreasonable low setting for the circuit breaker itself.

Instead provide services where they are needed. The class worked
well as a temporary measure to easy removal of guice from the index

Today we hold on to all possible tokenizers, tokenfilters etc. when we create
an index service on a node. This was mainly done to allow the `_analyze` API to
directly access all these primitive. We fixed this in #19827 and can now get rid of
the AnalysisService entirely and replace it with a simple map like class. This
ensures we don't create a gazillion long living objects that are entirely useless since
they are never used in most of the indices. Also those objects might consume a considerable
amount of memory since they might load stopwords or synonyms etc.
Closes#19828
Today we define a cluster wait condition to try to wait at least a
certain number of nodes when running integration tests. Alas, the wait
condition is incorrect because wait_for_nodes>=${numNodes} will be split
by parameter parsing on the equals sign so the request looks like it has
a parameter named wait_for_nodes>. The fact that REST param parsing is
lenient leads to this being undiscovered. This commit fixes this issue.

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'.
The build currently depends on the presence of a Git remote named origin to determine the URL that is used in the generated POM file. As this is best-effort anyhow and only required by Maven Central, this commit allows the build to run even if a Git remote with the name "origin" is missing.

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.
Gradle appears to have a bug in maven publshing which will not match the
artifactId of a generated pom with the artifact id it puts in the file.
This adds back a copy hack from the original pom file name to the client
pom file name (which we had before #20403 inadvertently
removed it).
This commit adds a new test TribeIT#testClusterStateNodes() to verify that the tribe node correctly reflects the nodes of the remote clusters it is connected to.
It also changes the existing tests so that they really use two remote clusters now.
* 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.

This list is in `build.gradle` because we expect it to be fairly
temporary. In a few months we'll have converted all of the docs and won't
ned it any more.
From now on if you add now docs that contain a snippet that shows an
interaction with elasticsearch you have three choices:
1. Stick `// CONSOLE` on the interactions and `// TESTRESPONSE` on the
responses. The build (specifically (`gradle docs:check`) will test that
these interactions "work". If there isn't a `// TESTRESPONSE` snippet
then "work" just means "Elasticsearch responds with a 200-level response
code and no `WARNING` headers. This is way better than nothing.
2. Add `// NOTCONSOLE` if the snippet isn't actually interacting with
Elasticsearch. This should only be required for stuff like javascript
source code or `curl` against an external service like AWS or GCE. The
snippet will not get "OPEN IN CONSOLE" or "COPY AS CURL" buttons or be
tested.
3. Add `// TEST[skip:reason]` under the snippet. This will just skip the
snippet in the test phase. This should really be reserved for snippets
where we can't test them because they require an external service that
we don't have at testing time.
Please, please, please, please don't add more things to the list. After
all, it sais there'll be cake when we remove it entirely!

This PR introduces backward compatibility index tests to test the rolling upgrade process amongst Elasticsearch instances within the same major version. The test executes in three phases. In the first phase, we form a cluster of 2 ES instances on an old version. In the second phase, we keep one of the nodes from the old cluster, kill the other node, but preserve its data directory and start an instance of the current version of ES using the same data directory as the killed instance. In the third phase, we kill the other old version ES instance from the first phase and launch a new instance, using the same data directory as the killed instance. Therefore, during phase 3, we have fully migrated and have all current versions of ES running. In each phase, we run REST tests that index documents and search them, ensuring at each stage that the documents from the previous phase are still there.
Note that because we haven't released a GA yet of 5.0, the tests currently don't start an old version cluster in the first phase. Once GA is released, this will be changed to make the backward compatibility version 5.0, while the current version in the cluster will be 5.x.
automatically between tasks, as we want some of the nodes from
the previous task to continue running in the next task. This
commit enables a cluster configuration setting to not stop

cleanup phase.
cluster, we wait for the cluster health to indicate the
necessary nodes have formed a cluster. This check was an
exact value (equality) check. However, if we are trying to
connect the nodes in the cluster to nodes from a previously
formed cluster (of the same name), then we will have more
nodes returned by the cluster health check than the current
task's configured number of nodes. Hence, this check needs
to be a >= check. This commit fixes it.

SearchParseElement is renamed to FetchSubPhaseParser and moved to the search.fetch package. Its parse method doesn't get the SearchContext as argument anymore, only the XContentParser, and the return type is what gets parsed (the fetch sub phase context which we may as well rename later).
It is the parser that initializes the FetchSubPhaseContext then. SearchService retrieves the parser by name, calls parse against it and stores the result of parsing by name. No need for FetchSubPhase.ContextFactory anymore, which can be removed.

If elasticsearch controls the ID values as well as the documents
version we can optimize the code that adds / appends the documents
to the index. Essentially we an skip the version lookup for all
documents unless the same document is delivered more than once.
On the lucene level we can simply call IndexWriter#addDocument instead
of #updateDocument but on the Engine level we need to ensure that we deoptimize
the case once we see the same document more than once.
This is done as follows:
1. Mark every request with a timestamp. This is done once on the first node that
receives a request and is fixed for this request. This can be even the
machine local time (see why later). The important part is that retry
requests will have the same value as the original one.
2. In the engine we make sure we keep the highest seen time stamp of "retry" requests.
This is updated while the retry request has its doc id lock. Call this `maxUnsafeAutoIdTimestamp`
3. When the engine runs an "optimized" request comes, it compares it's timestamp with the
current `maxUnsafeAutoIdTimestamp` (but doesn't update it). If the the request
timestamp is higher it is safe to execute it as optimized (no retry request with the same
timestamp has been run before). If not we fall back to "non-optimzed" mode and run the request as a retry one
and update the `maxUnsafeAutoIdTimestamp` unless it's been updated already to a higher value

change makes rest tests use the full relative path to the rest test root
as the suite name, and also makes the test names for docs tests a little
clearer (that they are testing an example from a specific line number,
instead of just the line number as an opaque test name).

This changes Elasticsearch to automatically downgrade `text` and
`keyword` fields into appropriate `string` fields when changing the
mapping of indexes imported from 2.x. This allows users to use the
modern, documented syntax against 2.x indexes. It also makes it clear
that reindexing in order to recreate the index in 5.0 is required for
any long lived indexes. This change is useful for the times when you
can't (cluster is just starting, not stable enough for reindex) or
shouldn't (index will only live 90 days or something).
Adds an explicit recoverySource field to ShardRouting that characterizes the type of recovery to perform:
- fresh empty shard copy
- existing local shard copy
- recover from peer (primary)
- recover from snapshot
- recover from other local shards on same node (shrink index action)
This was previously broken because run and integTest used the same
configuration name. This change makes the configuration name prefixed by
the task the cluster is created for.
In 1e91f3b we disabled annotation processors globally. However, some
project like JMH need annotation processing, so we add an ability to
selectively enabled annotation processing for certain projects by
setting an external property in the corresponding Gradle build script.
Note that `javac` would allow to set a specific annotation processor
with the command line option `-processor`. However, due to a bug in
Gradle we we cannot use this option and need to enable all annotation
processors.
This commit sets external nodes for integration tests to default to
using 512m of heap. This can be overridden using tests.heap.size (a
system property that we already use elesewhere for setting the size of
the heap for the test runner) or using tests.jvm.argline (this last one
takes precedence).
