It is important that folks understand that snapshot/restore isn't
for archiving. It is appropriate for backup and disaster recovery
but not for archival over long periods of time because of version

Removes a non-existant file from the non-`// CONSOLE` list. If you
remove all the non-`// CONSOLE` snippets from a file it must be
removed from the whitelist for the build to pass. Removing the file
entirely counts as removing the snippets.

The shards preference on a search request enables specifying a list of
shards to hit, and then a secondary preference (e.g., "_primary") can be
added. Today, the separator between the shards list and the secondary
preference is ';'. Unfortunately, this is also a valid separtor for URL
query parameters. This means that a preference like "_shards:0;_primary"
will be parsed into two URL parameters: "_shards:0" and "_primary". With
the recent change to strict URL parsing, the second parameter will be
rejected, "_primary" is not a valid URL parameter on a search
request. This means that this feature has never worked (unless the ';'
is escaped, but no one does that because our docs do not that, and there
was no indication from Elasticsearch that this did not work). This
commit changes the separator to '|'.

This change proposes the removal of all non-tcp transport implementations. The
mock transport can be used by default to run tests instead of local transport that has
roughly the same performance compared to TCP or at least not noticeably slower.
This is a master only change, deprecation notice in 5.x will be committed as a
separate change.
Previously, this doc was using a field called "content". This is
confusing, especially when the doc starts talking about the content of
the content field. This change makes the field name "comment" which
is less ambiguous and also changes some related field names in the doc
to make a consistent example theme of editing docs around blog posts.
This causes the snippets to be tested during the build and gives
helpful links to the reader to open the docs in console or copy them
as curl commands.

Today when parsing a request, Elasticsearch silently ignores incorrect
(including parameters with typos) or unused parameters. This is bad as
it leads to requests having unintended behavior (e.g., if a user hits
the _analyze API and misspell the "tokenizer" then Elasticsearch will
just use the standard analyzer, completely against intentions).
This commit removes lenient URL parameter parsing. The strategy is
simple: when a request is handled and a parameter is touched, we mark it
as such. Before the request is actually executed, we check to ensure
that all parameters have been consumed. If there are remaining
parameters yet to be consumed, we fail the request with a list of the
unconsumed parameters. An exception has to be made for parameters that
format the response (as opposed to controlling the request); for this
case, handlers are able to provide a list of parameters that should be
excluded from tripping the unconsumed parameters check because those
parameters will be used in formatting the response.
Additionally, some inconsistencies between the parameters in the code
and in the docs are corrected.

On Windows the JDK uses `CreateFileW` which has a stupidly high
limit for the number of `Handle`s it can make - `16 * 1024 * 1024`.
So this isn't really a problem on Windows at all.
Closes#20732
today it's not possible to use date-math efficiently with the `_rollover`
API. This change adds support for date-math in the target index as well as
support for preserving the math logic when an existing index that was created with
a date math expression all subsequent indices are created with the same expression.
this change adds a hard limit to `index.number_of_shard` that prevents
indices from being created that have more than 1024 shards. This is still
a huge limit and can only be changed via settings a system property.
Surprise! You can use sliced scroll to easily parallelize reindex
and friend. They support it because they use the same infrastructure
as a regular search to parse the search request. While we would like
to make an "automatic" option for parallelizing reindex, this manual
option works right now and is pretty convenient!
This commit fixes the documentation for configuring the Java I/O temp

The serial collector is not suitable for running with a server

This tracks the snippets that probably should be converted to
`// CONSOLE` or `// TESTRESPONSE` and fails the build if the list
of files with such snippets doesn't match the list in `docs/build.gradle`.
Setting the file looks like
```
/* List of files that have snippets that probably should be converted to
* `// CONSOLE` and `// TESTRESPONSE` but have yet to be converted. Try and
* only remove entries from this list. When it is empty we'll remove it
* entirely and have a party! There will be cake and everything.... */
buildRestTests.expectedUnconvertedCandidates = [
'plugins/discovery-azure-classic.asciidoc',
...
'reference/search/suggesters/completion-suggest.asciidoc',
]
```
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!

We can now run templates using `explain` and/or `profile` parameters.
Which is interesting when you have defined a complicated profile but want to debug it in an easier way than running the full query again.
You can use `explain` parameter when running a template:
```js
GET /_search/template
{
"file": "my_template",
"params": {
"status": [ "pending", "published" ]
},
"explain": true
}
```
You can use `profile` parameter when running a template:

{
"file": "my_template",
"params": {
"status": [ "pending", "published" ]

During a networking partition, cluster states updates (like mapping changes or shard assignments)
are committed if a majority of the masters node received the update correctly. This means that the current master has access to enough nodes in the cluster to continue to operate correctly. When the network partition heals, the isolated nodes catch up with the current state and get the changes they couldn't receive before. However, if a second partition happens while the cluster
is still recovering from the previous one *and* the old master is put in the minority side, it may be that a new master is elected which did not yet catch up. If that happens, cluster state updates can be lost.
This commit fixed 95% of this rare problem by adding the current cluster state version to `PingResponse` and use them when deciding which master to join (and thus casting the node's vote).
Note: this doesn't fully mitigate the problem as a cluster state update which is issued concurrently with a network partition can be lost if the partition prevents the commit message (part of the two phased commit of cluster state updates) from reaching any single node in the majority side *and* the partition does allow for the master to acknowledge the change. We are working on a more comprehensive fix but that requires considerate work and is targeted at 6.0.
Currently, we check if a node has the same set of custom metadata as the master
before joining the cluster. This implies freshly installing a plugin that has its
custom metadata requires a full cluster restart.
`profile.asciidoc` now runs all of its command but it doesn't validate
all of the results. Writing the validation is time consuming so I only
did some of it.
* Update rescoring docs in respect to sort
If sort is present in a query the rescore query is not executed. As long as this feature is neither implemented (see discussion in #6788) nor the combination of sort and rescoring raises an error, we should warn the user in the documentation about this.

update geoip to not include null-valued results from database
Originally, the plugin would still insert all the requested fields, but
assign null to each one. This fixes that by not writing the fields at
all. Makes for a better experience when the null fields conflict with
the typical geo_point field mapping.
With the cut over to LatLonPoint the geohash, geohash_precision, lat_lon, and geohash_prefix parameters have been removed. This commit fixes the doc build by removing the remaining dangling references to these removed parameters.
This change replaces the fields parameter with stored_fields when it makes sense.
This is dictated by the renaming we made in #18943 for the search API.
The following list of endpoint has been changed to use `stored_fields` instead of `fields`:
* get
* mget
* explain
The documentation and the rest API spec has been updated to cope with the changes for the following APIs:
* delete_by_query
* get
* mget
* explain
The `fields` parameter has been deprecated for the following APIs (it is replaced by _source filtering):
* update: the fields are extracted from the _source directly.
* bulk: the fields parameter is used but fields are extracted from the source directly so it is allowed to have non-stored fields.
Some APIs still have the `fields` parameter for various reasons:
* cat.fielddata: the fields paramaters relates to the fielddata fields that should be printed.
* indices.clear_cache: used to indicate which fielddata fields should be cleared.
* indices.get_field_mapping: used to filter fields in the mapping.
* indices.stats: get stats on fields (stored or not stored).
* termvectors: fields are retrieved from the stored fields if possible and extracted from the _source otherwise.
* mtermvectors:
* nodes.stats: the fields parameter is used to concatenate completion_fields and fielddata_fields so it's not related to stored_fields at all.

This commit adds a -q/--quiet option to Elasticsearch so that it does not log anything in the console and closes stdout & stderr streams.
