Otherwise things will get confused.
An alternative would be to make sure that for lagging stream we don't
return anything (and make sure the returned next_batch token doesn't go
backwards). But that is a faff.
We try and deduplicate in two places: 1) really early on, and 2) just
before we persist the event. The first case was broken due to it
occuring before the profile information was added, and so it thought the
event contents were different.
The second case did catch it and handle it correctly, however doing so
creates a redundant state group leading to bloat.

There is a problem with `StreamIdGenerator` where it can go backwards
over restarts when a stream ID is requested but then not inserted into
the DB. This is problematic if we want to land #17215, and is generally
a potential cause for all sorts of nastiness.
Instead of trying to fix `StreamIdGenerator`, we may as well move to
`MultiWriterIdGenerator` that does not suffer from this problem (the
latest positions are stored in `stream_positions` table). This involves
adding SQLite support to the class.
This only changes id generators that were already using
`MultiWriterIdGenerator` under postgres, a separate PR will move the
rest of the uses of `StreamIdGenerator` over.
Currently sending a to-device message to a user ID with a dodgy
destination is accepted, but then ends up spamming the logs when we try
and send to the destination.
An alternative would be to reject the request, but I'm slightly nervous
that could break things.
When a module rejects a piece of media we end up trying to close the
same logging context twice.
Instead of fixing the existing code we refactor to use an async context
manager, which is easier to write correctly.
The log format is the same as the request log format, except:
- fields that are specific to HTTP requests have been removed
- the task's params are included at the end of the log line.
These log lines are emitted:
- when the task function finishes — both completion and failure (and I
suppose it is possible for a task to become schedulable again?)
- every 5 minutes whilst it is running
Closes#17217.

This PR ports the logic from the
[synapse_auto_accept_invite](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse-auto-accept-invite)
module into synapse.
I went with the naive approach of injecting the "module" next to where
third party modules are currently loaded. If there is a better/preferred
way to handle this, I'm all ears. It wasn't obvious to me if there was a
better location to add this logic that would cleanly apply to all
incoming invite events.
Relies on https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/pull/17166 to fix linter

Re-introduces #17191, and includes #17197 and #17214
The basic idea is to stop calling `get_rooms_for_user` everywhere, and
instead use the table `device_lists_changes_in_room`.
Commits reviewable one-by-one.
Removed `request_key` from the `SyncConfig` (moved outside as its own function parameter) so it doesn't have to flow into `_generate_sync_entry_for_xxx` methods. This way we can separate the concerns of caching from generating the response and reuse the `_generate_sync_entry_for_xxx` functions as we see fit. Plus caching doesn't really have anything to do with the config of sync.

have changed and then look for shared rooms.
This is to allow clients to query the configured federation whitelist.

Linter errors are showing up in #17147 that are unrelated to that PR.
The errors do not currently show up on develop.
This PR aims to resolve the linter errors separately from #17147.
This version change requires a migration to a new API. See
https://pyo3.rs/v0.21.2/migration#from-020-to-021
This will fix the annoying warnings added when using the recent rust
nightly:
> warning: non-local `impl` definition, they should be avoided as they
go against expectation
When there have been lots of changes compared with the number of
entities, we can do a fast(er) path.
Locally I ran some benchmarking, and the comparison seems to give the
best determination of which method we use.
This change will apply the `email` & `picture` provided by OIDC to the
new user account when registering a new user via OIDC. If the user is
directed to the account details form, this change makes sure they have
been selected before applying them, otherwise they are omitted. In
particular, this change ensures the values are carried through when
Synapse has consent configured, and the redirect to the consent form/s
are followed.
I have tested everything manually. Including:
- with/without consent configured
- allowing/not allowing the use of email/avatar (via
`sso_auth_account_details.html`)
- with/without automatic account detail population (by un/commenting the
`localpart_template` option in synapse config).

Fixes https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/issues/17117.
The general principle is just to make sure that we propagate any
exceptions to the JsonResource, so that we return an error code to the
sending server. That means that the sending server no longer considers
the message safely sent, so it will retry later.
In the issue, Erik mentions that an alternative solution would be to
persist the to-device messages into a table so that they can be retried.
This might be an improvement for performance, but even if we did that,
we still need this mechanism, since we might be unable to reach the
database. So, if we want to do that, it can be a later follow-up.

This makes it easy to store UNIX sockets with correct permissions. Those
would be located in /run/synapse which is the directory used in many
examples in Synapse configuration manual. Additionally, the directory
and sockets are deleted when Synapse is shut down.
This adds functions to transform a Twisted request to the
`http::Request`, and then to send back an `http::Response` through it.
It also imports the SynapseError exception so that we can throw that
from Rust code directly
Example usage of this would be:
```rust
use crate::http::{http_request_from_twisted, http_response_to_twisted, HeaderMapPyExt};
fn handler(twisted_request: &PyAny) -> PyResult<()> {
let request = http_request_from_twisted(twisted_request)?;
let ua: headers::UserAgent = request.headers().typed_get_required()?;
if whatever {
return Err((crate::errors::SynapseError::new(
StatusCode::UNAUTHORIZED,
"Whatever".to_owned
"M_UNAUTHORIZED",
None,
None,
)));
}
let response = Response::new("hello".as_bytes());
http_response_to_twisted(twisted_request, response)?;
Ok(())
}
```
Resurrecting https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/13918.
This should reduce IOPs incurred by joining to the events table to
lookup stream ordering, which happens in many receipt handling code
paths. Like the previous PR I believe sufficient time has passed between
the original migration in DB schema 72 and now to merge this as-is. It's
highly unlikely that both the migration is still ongoing AND (active)
users still have any receipts prior to that date.
In the unlikely event there is a receipt without a populated
`event_stream_ordering` synapse will behave just as it does now when
receipts exist for events that don't (yet): for push action calculation
the receipts are just ignored.
I've removed the validation on event IDs as this is already covered
here:
59ceabcb97/synapse/handlers/receipts.py (L189-L192)
PR #16942 removed an invalid optimisation that avoided pulling out state
for non-gappy syncs. This causes a large increase in DB usage. c.f.
#16941 for why that optimisation was wrong.
However, we can still optimise in the simple case where the events in
the timeline are a linear chain without any branching/merging of the
DAG.

Before we were pulling out *all* read receipts for a user for every
event we pushed. Instead let's only pull out the relevant receipts.
This also pulled out the event rows for each receipt, causing load on
the events table.
This PR fixes a very, very niche edge-case, but I've got some more work
coming which will otherwise make the problem worse.
The bug happens when the syncing user leaves a room, and has a sync
filter which includes "left" rooms, but sets the timeline limit to 0. In
that case, the state returned in the `state` section is calculated
incorrectly.
The fix is to pass a token corresponding to the point that the user
leaves the room through to `compute_state_delta`.
Requests may require a User-Agent header, and the change in #16972
accidentally removed it, resulting in requests getting rejected causing
login to fail.
Fixes https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/issues/16680, as well as a
related bug, where servers which we had *never* successfully sent an
event to would not be retried.
In order to fix the case of pending to-device messages, we hook into the
existing `wake_destinations_needing_catchup` process, by extending it to
look for destinations that have pending to-device messages. The
federation transmission loop then attempts to send the pending to-device
messages as normal.
When running unit tests, we patch the database connection pool so that
it runs queries "synchronously". This is ok, except that if any queries
are launched before we do the patching, those queries get left in limbo
and never complete.
To fix this, let's change the way we do the switcheroo, by patching out
the method which creates the connection pool in the first place.
I have a use case where I'd like the Synapse image to start up a
postgres instance that I can use, but don't want to force Synapse to use
postgres as well.
This commit prevents postgres from being started when it has already
been explicitly enabled elsewhere.
When a lot of locks are waiting for a single lock, notifying all locks
independently with `call_later` on each release is really costly and
incurs some kind of async contention, where the CPU is spinning a lot
for not much.
The included test is taking around 30s before the change, and 0.5s
after.
It was found following failing tests with
https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/pull/16827.
Background: we have a `matrixdotorg/synapse-workers` docker image, which
is intended for running multiple workers within the same container. That
image includes a `prefix-log` script which, for each line printed to
stdout or stderr by one of the processes, prepends the name of the
process.
This commit disables buffering in that script, so that lines are logged
quickly after they are printed. This makes it much easier to understand
the output, since they then come out in a natural order.
This PR aims to fix#16895, caused by a regression in #7 and not fixed
by #16903. The PR #16903 only fixes a starvation issue, where the CPU
isn't released. There is a second issue, where the execution is blocked.
This theory is supported by the flame graphs provided in #16895 and the
fact that I see the CPU usage reducing and far below the limit.
Since the changes in #7, the method `check_state_independent_auth_rules`
is called with the additional parameter `batched_auth_events`:
6fa13b4f92/synapse/handlers/federation_event.py (L1741-L1743)
It makes the execution enter this if clause, introduced with #151956fa13b4f92/synapse/event_auth.py (L178-L189)
There are two issues in the above code snippet.
First, there is the blocking issue. I'm not entirely sure if this is a
deadlock, starvation, or something different. In the beginning, I
thought the copy operation was responsible. It wasn't. Then I
investigated the nested `store.get_events` inside the function `update`.
This was also not causing the blocking issue. Only when I replaced the
set difference operation (`-` ) with a list comprehension, the blocking
was resolved. Creating and comparing sets with a very large amount of
events seems to be problematic.
This is how the flamegraph looks now while persisting outliers. As you
can see, the execution no longer locks up in the above function.
Second, the copying here doesn't serve any purpose, because only a
shallow copy is created. This means the same objects from the original
dict are referenced. This fails the intention of protecting these
objects from mutation. The review of the original PR
https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/15195 had an extensive
discussion about this matter.
Various approaches to copying the auth_events were attempted:
1) Implementing a deepcopy caused issues due to
builtins.EventInternalMetadata not being pickleable.
2) Creating a dict with new objects akin to a deepcopy.
3) Creating a dict with new objects containing only necessary
attributes.
Concluding, there is no easy way to create an actual copy of the
objects. Opting for a deepcopy can significantly strain memory and CPU
resources, making it an inefficient choice. I don't see why the copy is
necessary in the first place. Therefore I'm proposing to remove it
altogether.
After these changes, I was able to successfully join these rooms,
without the main worker locking up:
- #synapse:matrix.org
- #element-android:matrix.org
- #element-web:matrix.org
- #ecips:matrix.org
- #ipfs-chatter:ipfs.io
- #python:matrix.org
- #matrix:matrix.org
Since Synapse 1.76.0, any module which registers a `on_new_event`
callback would brick the ability to join remote rooms.
This is because this callback tried to get the full state of the room,
which would end up in a deadlock.
Related:
https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse-auto-accept-invite/issues/18
The following module would brick the ability to join remote rooms:
```python
from typing import Any, Dict, Literal, Union
import logging
from synapse.module_api import ModuleApi, EventBase
logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
class MyModule:
def __init__(self, config: None, api: ModuleApi):
self._api = api
self._config = config
self._api.register_third_party_rules_callbacks(
on_new_event=self.on_new_event,
)
async def on_new_event(self, event: EventBase, _state_map: Any) -> None:
logger.info(f"Received new event: {event}")
@staticmethod
def parse_config(_config: Dict[str, Any]) -> None:
return None
```
This is technically a breaking change, as we are now passing partial
state on the `on_new_event` callback.
However, this callback was broken for federated rooms since 1.76.0, and
local rooms have full state anyway, so it's unlikely that it would
change anything.
This adds a counter `synapse_emails_sent_total` for emails sent. They
are broken down by `type`, which are `password_reset`, `registration`,
`add_threepid`, `notification` (matching the methods of `Mailer`).
We do this by adding support to the LRU cache for "extra indices" based
on the cached value. This allows us to efficiently map from room ID to
the cached events and only invalidate those.
List of users not to send out device list updates for when they register
new devices. This is useful to handle bot accounts.
This is undocumented as its mostly a hack to test on matrix.org.
Note: This will still send out device list updates if the device is
later updated, e.g. end to end keys are added.
This basically reverts a change that was in
https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/pull/16833, where we reduced the
batching.
The smaller batching can cause performance issues on busy servers and
databases.
Partially reverts #16796
This is causing errors of the form:
```

```

Prior to this PR, if a request to create a public (public as in
published to the rooms directory) room violated the room list
publication rules set in the
[config](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/usage/configuration/config_documentation.html#room_list_publication_rules),
the request to create the room was denied and the room was not created.
This PR changes the behavior such that when a request to create a room
published to the directory violates room list publication rules, the
room is still created but the room is not published to the directory.
The current query supports passing in a list of users, which generates a
query using `user_id = ANY(..)`. This is generates a less efficient
query plan that is notably slower than a simple `user_id = ?` condition.
Note: The new function is mostly a copy and paste and then a
simplification of the existing function.
The crux of the change is to try and make the queries simpler and pull
out fewer rows. Before, there were quite a few joins against subqueries,
which caused postgres to pull out more rows than necessary.
Instead, let's simplify the query and do some of the filtering out in
Python instead, letting Postgres do better optimizations now that it
doesn't have to deal with joins against subqueries.
Review note: this is a complete rewrite of the function, so not sure how
useful the diff is.

In previous versions of authlib using `client_secret_basic` without a
`client_secret` would result in an invalid auth header. Since authlib
1.3 it throws an exception.
The configuration may be accepted in by very lax servers, so we don't
want to deny it outright. Instead, let's default the
`client_auth_method` to `none`, which does the right thing. If the
config specifies `client_auth_method` and no `client_secret` then that
is going to be bogus and we should reject it
Sometimes we fail to fetch events during backfill due to missing state,
and we often end up querying the same bad events periodically (as people
backpaginate). In such cases its likely we will continue to fail to get
the state, and therefore we should try *before* loading the state that
we have from the DB (as otherwise it's wasted DB and memory).

Instead of persisting outliers in a bunch of batches, let's just do them
all at once.
This is fine because all `_auth_and_persist_outliers_inner` is doing is
checking the auth rules for each event, which requires the events to be
topologically sorted by the auth graph.
The idea here being that the directory server shouldn't advertise rooms
to a requesting server is the requesting server would not be allowed to
join or participate in the room.

There are a couple of things we need to be careful of here:
1. The current python code does no validation when loading from the DB,
so we need to be careful to ignore such errors (at least on jki.re there
are some old events with internal metadata fields of the wrong type).
2. We want to be memory efficient, as we often have many hundreds of
thousands of events in the cache at a time.
