When figuring out which topological token to start a purge job at, we
need to do the following:
1. Figure out a timestamp before which events will be purged
2. Select the first stream ordering after that timestamp
3. Select info about the first event after that stream ordering
4. Build a topological token from that info
In some situations (e.g. quiet rooms with a short max_lifetime), there
might not be an event after the stream ordering at step 3, therefore we
abort the purge with the error `No event found`. To mitigate that, this
patch fetches the first event _before_ the stream ordering, instead of
after.
Currently we rely on `current_state_events` to figure out what rooms a
user was in and their last membership event in there. However, if the
server leaves the room then the table may be cleaned up and that
information is lost. So lets add a table that separately holds that
information.
* Remove redundant python2 support code
`str.decode()` doesn't exist on python3, so presumably this code was doing
nothing
* Filter out pushers with corrupt data
When we get a row with unparsable json, drop the row, rather than returning a
row with null `data`, which will then cause an explosion later on.
* Improve logging when we can't start a pusher
Log the ID to help us understand the problem
* Make email pusher setup more robust
We know we'll have a `data` member, since that comes from the database. What we
*don't* know is if that is a dict, and if that has a `brand` member, and if
that member is a string.

have_events was a map from event_id to rejection reason (or None) for events
which are in our local database. It was used as filter on the list of
event_ids being passed into get_events_as_list. However, since
get_events_as_list will ignore any event_ids that are unknown or rejected, we
can equivalently just leave it to get_events_as_list to do the filtering.
That means that we don't have to keep `have_events` up-to-date, and can use
`have_seen_events` instead of `get_seen_events_with_rejection` in the one place
we do need it.
Implement part [MSC2228](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2228). The parts that differ are:
* the feature is hidden behind a configuration flag (`enable_ephemeral_messages`)
* self-destruction doesn't happen for state events
* only implement support for the `m.self_destruct_after` field (not the `m.self_destruct` one)
* doesn't send synthetic redactions to clients because for this specific case we consider the clients to be able to destroy an event themselves, instead we just censor it (by pruning its JSON) in the database

Doing a SELECT DISTINCT when paginating is quite expensive, because it requires the engine to do sorting on the entire events table. However, we only need to run it if we're filtering on 2+ labels, so this PR is changing the request so that DISTINCT is only used then.
Fixes a bug where rejected events were persisted with the wrong state group.
Also fixes an occasional internal-server-error when receiving events over
federation which are rejected and (possibly because they are
backwards-extremities) have no prev_group.
Fixes#6289.
This adds:
* a test sqlite database
* a configuration file for the sqlite database
* a configuration file for a postgresql database (using the credentials in `.buildkite/docker-compose.pyXX.pgXX.yaml`)
as well as a new script named `.buildkite/scripts/test_synapse_port_db.sh` that:
1. installs Synapse
2. updates the test sqlite database to the latest schema and runs background updates on it
3. creates an empty postgresql database
4. run the `synapse_port_db` script to migrate the test sqlite database to the empty postgresql database (with coverage)
Step `2` is done via a new script located at `scripts-dev/update_database`.
The test sqlite database is extracted from a SyTest run, so that it can be considered as an actual homeserver's database with actual data in it.
Hopefully this will fix the occasional failures we were seeing in the room directory.
The problem was that events are not necessarily persisted (and `current_state_delta_stream` updated) in the same order as their stream_id. So for instance current_state_delta 9 might be persisted *before* current_state_delta 8. Then, when the room stats saw stream_id 9, it assumed it had done everything up to 9, and never came back to do stream_id 8.
We can solve this easily by only processing up to the stream_id where we know all events have been persisted.
More often than not passing bytes to `txn.execute` is a bug (where we
meant to pass a string) that just happens to work if `BYTEA_OUTPUT` is
set to `ESCAPE`. However, this is a bit of a footgun so we want to
instead error when this happens, and force using `bytearray` if we
actually want to use bytes.
We incorrectly used `room_id` as to bound the result set, even though we
order by `joined_members, room_id`, leading to incorrect results after
pagination.
Copy push rules during a room upgrade from the old room to the new room, instead of deleting them from the old room.
For instance, we've defined upgrading of a room multiple times to be possible, and push rules won't be transferred on the second upgrade if they're deleted during the first.
Also fix some missing yields that probably broke things quite a bit.
We have set the max retry interval to a value larger than a postgres or
sqlite int can hold, which caused exceptions when updating the
destinations table.
To fix postgres we need to change the column to a bigint, and for sqlite
we lower the max interval to 2**62 (which is still incredibly long).
Joining against `events` and ordering by `stream_ordering` is
inefficient as it forced scanning the entirety of the redactions table.
This isn't the case if we use `redactions.received_ts` column as we can
then use an index.
Currently we don't set `have_censored` column if we don't have the
target event of a redaction, which means we repeatedly attempt to censor
the same non-existant event.
When we persist non-redacted events we unset the `have_censored` column
for any redactions that target said event.
This is a) simpler than querying user_ips directly and b) means we can
purge older entries from user_ips without losing the required info.
The storage functions now no longer return the access_token, since it
was unused.
Implements MSC2290. This PR adds two new endpoints, /unstable/account/3pid/add and /unstable/account/3pid/bind. Depending on the progress of that MSC the unstable prefix may go away.
This PR also removes the blacklist on some 3PID tests which occurs in #6042, as the corresponding Sytest PR changes them to use the new endpoints.
Finally, it also modifies the account deactivation code such that it doesn't just try to deactivate 3PIDs that were bound to the user's account, but any 3PIDs that were bound through the homeserver on that user's account.
This is a partial revert of #5893. The problem is that if we drop these tables
in the same release as removing the code that writes to them, it prevents users
users from being able to roll back to a previous release.
So let's leave the tables in place for now, and remember to drop them in a
subsequent release.
(Note that these tables haven't been *read* for *years*, so any missing rows
resulting from a temporary upgrade to vNext won't cause a problem.)
This is a potential solution to https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/3374
and https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/5953
as raised by Mozilla at https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/10868.
This lets you define a push rule action which increases the badge count (unread notification)
count on a given room, but doesn't actually send a push for that notification via email or HTTP.
We might want to define this as the default behaviour for group chats in future
to solve https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/3268 at last.
This is implemented as a string action rather than a tweak because:
* Other pushers don't care about the tweak, given they won't ever get pushed
* The DB can store the tweak more efficiently using the existing `notify` table.
* It avoids breaking the default_notif/highlight_action optimisations.
Clients which generate their own notifs (e.g. desktop notifs from Riot/Web
would need to be aware of the new push action) to uphold it.
An alternative way to do this would be to maintain a `msg_count` alongside
`highlight_count` and `notification_count` in `unread_notifications` in sync responses.
However, doing this by counting the rows in `events` since the `stream_position`
of the user's last read receipt turns out to be painfully slow (~200ms), perhaps
due to the size of the events table. So instead, we use the highly optimised
existing event_push_actions (and event_push_actions_staging) table to maintain
the counts - using the code paths which already exist for tracking unread
notification counts efficiently. These queries are typically ~3ms or so.
The biggest issues I see here are:
* We're slightly repurposing the `notif` field on `event_push_actions` to
track whether a given action actually sent a `push` or not. This doesn't
seem unreasonable, but it's slightly naughty given that previously the
field explicitly tracked whether `notify` was true for the action (and
as a result, it was uselessly always set to 1 in the DB).
* We're going to put more load on the `event_push_actions` table for all the
random group chats which people had previously muted. In practice i don't
think there are many of these though.
* There isn't an MSC for this yet (although this comment could become one).
We want to assign unique mxids to saml users based on an incrementing
suffix. For that to work, we need to record the allocated mxid in a separate
table.
Previously if the first registered user was a "support" or "bot" user,
when the first real user registers, the auto-join rooms were not
created.
Fix to exclude non-real (ie users with a special user type) users
when counting how many users there are to determine whether we should
auto-create a room.

Remove all the "double return" statements which were a result of us removing all the instances of
```
defer.returnValue(...)
return
```
statements when we switched to python3 fully.
Python will return a tuple whether there are parentheses around the returned values or not.
I'm just sick of my editor complaining about this all over the place :)
Some of the caches on worker processes were not being correctly invalidated
when a room's state was changed in a way that did not affect the membership
list of the room.
We need to make sure we send out cache invalidations even when no memberships
are changing.
* allow devices to be marked as "hidden"
This is a prerequisite for cross-signing, as it allows us to create other things
that live within the device namespace, so they can be used for signatures.
When persisting events we calculate new stream orderings up front.
Before we notify about an event all events with lower stream orderings
must have finished being persisted.
This PR moves the assignment of stream ordering till *after* calculated
the new current state and split the batch of events into separate chunks
for persistence. This means that if it takes a long time to calculate
new current state then it will not block events in other rooms being
notified about.
This should help reduce some global pauses in the events stream which
can last for tens of seconds (if not longer), caused by some
particularly expensive state resolutions.
Annoyingly, `current_state_events` table can include rejected events,
in which case the membership column will be null. To work around this
lets just always filter out null membership for now.
This is a prerequisite for cross-signing, as it allows us to create other things
that live within the device namespace, so they can be used for signatures.
`None` is not a valid event id, so queuing up a database fetch for it seems
like a silly thing to do.
I considered making `get_event` return `None` if `event_id is None`, but then
its interaction with `allow_none` seemed uninituitive, and strong typing ftw.
This will allow us to efficiently filter out rooms that have been
forgotten in other queries without having to join against the
`room_memberships` table.
We can now use `_get_events_from_cache_or_db` rather than going right back to
the database, which means that (a) we can benefit from caching, and (b) it
opens the way forward to more extensive checks on the original event.
We now always require the original event to exist before we will serve up a
redaction.
Ensures that redactions are correctly authenticated for recent room versions.
There are a few things going on here:
* `_fetch_event_rows` is updated to return a dict rather than a list of rows.
* Rather than returning multiple copies of an event which was redacted
multiple times, it returns the redactions as a list within the dict.
* It also returns the actual rejection reason, rather than merely the fact
that it was rejected, so that we don't have to query the table again in
`_get_event_from_row`.
* The redaction handling is factored out of `_get_event_from_row`, and now
checks if any of the redactions are valid.
A couple of changes here:
* get rid of a redundant `allow_rejected` condition - we should already have filtered out any rejected
events before we get to that point in the code, and the redundancy is confusing. Instead, let's stick in
an assertion just to make double-sure we aren't leaking rejected events by mistake.
* factor out a `_get_events_from_cache_or_db` method, which is going to be important for a
forthcoming fix to redactions.
When asking for the relations of an event, include the original event in the response. This will mostly be used for efficiently showing edit history, but could be useful in other circumstances.
This has never been documented, and I'm not sure it's ever been used outside
sytest.
It's quite a lot of poorly-maintained code, so I'd like to get rid of it.
For now I haven't removed the database table; I suggest we leave that for a
future clearout.
When a client asks for users whose devices have changed since a token we
used to pull *all* users from the database since the token, which could
easily be thousands of rows for old tokens.
This PR changes this to only check for changes for users the client is
actually interested in.
Fixes#5553
There is a README.txt which always sets off this warning, which is a bit
alarming when you first start synapse. I don't think we need to warn about
this.
Fixes intermittent errors observed on Apple hardware which were caused by
time.clock() appearing to go backwards when called from different threads.
Also fixes a bug where database activity times were logged as 1/1000 of their
correct ratio due to confusion between milliseconds and seconds.
Adds new config option `cleanup_extremities_with_dummy_events` which
periodically sends dummy events to rooms with more than 10 extremities.
THIS IS REALLY EXPERIMENTAL.
If we try and send a transaction with lots of EDUs and we run out of
space, we call get_new_device_msgs_for_remote with a limit of 0, which
then failed.
Some keys are stored in the synapse database with a null valid_until_ms
which caused an exception to be thrown when using that key. We fix this
by treating nulls as zeroes, i.e. they keys will match verification
requests with a minimum_valid_until_ms of zero (i.e. don't validate ts)
but will not match requests with a non-zero minimum_valid_until_ms.
Fixes#5391.
Sends password reset emails from the homeserver instead of proxying to the identity server. This is now the default behaviour for security reasons. If you wish to continue proxying password reset requests to the identity server you must now enable the email.trust_identity_server_for_password_resets option.
This PR is a culmination of 3 smaller PRs which have each been separately reviewed:
* #5308
* #5345
* #5368
* Fix background updates to handle redactions/rejections
In background updates based on current state delta stream we need to
handle that we may not have all the events (or at least that
`get_events` may raise an exception).
We have to do this by re-inserting a background update and recreating
tables, as the tables only get created during a background update and
will later be deleted.
We also make sure that we remove any entries that should have been
removed but weren't due to a race that has been fixed in a previous
commit.
When we receive a soft failed event we, correctly, *do not* update the
forward extremity table with the event. However, if we later receive an
event that references the soft failed event we then need to remove the
soft failed events prev events from the forward extremities table,
otherwise we just build up forward extremities.
Fixes#5269
When enabling the account validity feature, Synapse will look at startup for registered account without an expiration date, and will set one equals to 'now + validity_period' for them. On large servers, it can mean that a large number of users will have the same expiration date, which means that they will all be sent a renewal email at the same time, which isn't ideal.
In order to mitigate this, this PR allows server admins to define a 'max_delta' so that the expiration date is a random value in the [now + validity_period ; now + validity_period + max_delta] range. This allows renewal emails to be progressively sent over a configured period instead of being sent all in one big batch.
