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.
