Fix performance regression in get_users_in_room (#13972)
Fixes #13942. Introduced in #13575.

Basically, let's only get the ordered set of hosts out of the DB if we need an ordered set of hosts. Since we split the function up the caching won't be as good, but I think it will still be fine as e.g. multiple backfill requests for the same room will hit the cache.

Limit and filter the number of backfill points to get from the database (#13879)
There is no need to grab thousands of backfill points when we only need 5 to make the `/backfill` request with. We need to grab a few extra in case the first few aren't visible in the history.

Previously, we grabbed thousands of backfill points from the database, then sorted and filtered them in the app. Fetching the 4.6k backfill points for `#matrix:matrix.org` from the database takes ~50ms - ~570ms so it's not like this saves a lot of time 🤷. But it might save us more time now that `get_backfill_points_in_room`/`get_insertion_event_backward_extremities_in_room` are more complicated after https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/13635 

This PR moves the filtering and limiting to the SQL query so we just have less data to work with in the first place.

Handle remote device list updates during partial join (#13913)
c.f. #12993 (comment), point 3

This stores all device list updates that we receive while partial joins are ongoing, and processes them once we have the full state.

Note: We don't actually process the device lists in the same ways as if we weren't partially joined. Instead of updating the device list remote cache, we simply notify local users that a change in the remote user's devices has happened. I think this is safe as if the local user requests the keys for the remote user and we don't have them we'll simply fetch them as normal.

Faster Remote Room Joins: tell remote homeservers that we are unable to authorise them if they query a room which has partial state on our server. (#13823) 2022-09-23 11:47:16 +01:00

Optimize how we calculate likely_domains during backfill (#13575)
Optimize how we calculate `likely_domains` during backfill because I've seen this take 17s in production just to `get_current_state` which is used to `get_domains_from_state` (see case [*2. Loading tons of events* in the `/messages` investigation issue](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13356)).

There are 3 ways we currently calculate hosts that are in the room:

 1. `get_current_state` -> `get_domains_from_state`
    - Used in `backfill` to calculate `likely_domains` and `/timestamp_to_event` because it was cargo-culted from `backfill`
    - This one is being eliminated in favor of `get_current_hosts_in_room` in this PR 🕳
 1. `get_current_hosts_in_room`
    - Used for other federation things like sending read receipts and typing indicators
 1. `get_hosts_in_room_at_events`
    - Used when pushing out events over federation to other servers in the `_process_event_queue_loop`

### Query performance

#### Before

The query from `get_current_state` sucks just because we have to get all 80k events. And we see almost the exact same performance locally trying to get all of these events (16s vs 17s):
```
synapse=# SELECT type, state_key, event_id FROM current_state_events WHERE room_id = '!OGEhHVWSdvArJzumhm:matrix.org';
Time: 16035.612 ms (00:16.036)

synapse=# SELECT type, state_key, event_id FROM current_state_events WHERE room_id = '!OGEhHVWSdvArJzumhm:matrix.org';
Time: 4243.237 ms (00:04.243)
```

But what about `get_current_hosts_in_room`: When there is 8M rows in the `current_state_events` table, the previous query in `get_current_hosts_in_room` took 13s from complete freshness (when the events were first added). But takes 930ms after a Postgres restart or 390ms if running back to back to back.

```sh
$ psql synapse
synapse=# \timing on
synapse=# SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT substring(state_key FROM '@[^:]*:(.*)$'))
FROM current_state_events
WHERE
    type = 'm.room.member'
    AND membership = 'join'
    AND room_id = '!OGEhHVWSdvArJzumhm:matrix.org';
 count
-------
  4130
(1 row)

Time: 13181.598 ms (00:13.182)

synapse=# SELECT COUNT(*) from current_state_events where room_id = '!OGEhHVWSdvArJzumhm:matrix.org';
 count
-------
 80814

synapse=# SELECT COUNT(*) from current_state_events;
  count
---------
 8162847

synapse=# SELECT pg_size_pretty( pg_total_relation_size('current_state_events') );
 pg_size_pretty
----------------
 4702 MB
```

#### After

I'm not sure how long it takes from complete freshness as I only really get that opportunity once (maybe restarting computer but that's cumbersome) and it's not really relevant to normal operating times. Maybe you get closer to the fresh times the more access variability there is so that Postgres caches aren't as exact. Update: The longest I've seen this run for is 6.4s and 4.5s after a computer restart.

After a Postgres restart, it takes 330ms and running back to back takes 260ms.

```sh
$ psql synapse
synapse=# \timing on
Timing is on.
synapse=# SELECT
    substring(c.state_key FROM '@[^:]*:(.*)$') as host
FROM current_state_events c
/* Get the depth of the event from the events table */
INNER JOIN events AS e USING (event_id)
WHERE
    c.type = 'm.room.member'
    AND c.membership = 'join'
    AND c.room_id = '!OGEhHVWSdvArJzumhm:matrix.org'
GROUP BY host
ORDER BY min(e.depth) ASC;
Time: 333.800 ms
```

#### Going further

To improve things further we could add a `limit` parameter to `get_current_hosts_in_room`. Realistically, we don't need 4k domains to choose from because there is no way we're going to query that many before we a) probably get an answer or b) we give up. 

Another thing we can do is optimize the query to use a index skip scan:

Handle race between persisting an event and un-partial stating a room (#13100)
Whenever we want to persist an event, we first compute an event context,
which includes the state at the event and a flag indicating whether the
state is partial. After a lot of processing, we finally try to store the
event in the database, which can fail for partial state events when the
containing room has been un-partial stated in the meantime.

We detect the race as a foreign key constraint failure in the data store
layer and turn it into a special `PartialStateConflictError` exception,
which makes its way up to the method in which we computed the event
context.

To make things difficult, the exception needs to cross a replication
request: `/fed_send_events` for events coming over federation and
`/send_event` for events from clients. We transport the
`PartialStateConflictError` as a `409 Conflict` over replication and
turn `409`s back into `PartialStateConflictError`s on the worker making
the request.

All client events go through
`EventCreationHandler.handle_new_client_event`, which is called in
*a lot* of places. Instead of trying to update all the code which
creates client events, we turn the `PartialStateConflictError` into a
`429 Too Many Requests` in
`EventCreationHandler.handle_new_client_event` and hope that clients
take it as a hint to retry their request.

On the federation event side, there are 7 places which compute event
contexts. 4 of them use outlier event contexts:
`FederationEventHandler._auth_and_persist_outliers_inner`,
`FederationHandler.do_knock`, `FederationHandler.on_invite_request` and
`FederationHandler.do_remotely_reject_invite`. These events won't have
the partial state flag, so we do not need to do anything for then.

The remaining 3 paths which create events are
`FederationEventHandler.process_remote_join`,
`FederationEventHandler.on_send_membership_event` and
`FederationEventHandler._process_received_pdu`.

We can't experience the race in `process_remote_join`, unless we're
handling an additional join into a partial state room, which currently
blocks, so we make no attempt to handle it correctly.

`on_send_membership_event` is only called by
`FederationServer._on_send_membership_event`, so we catch the
`PartialStateConflictError` there and retry just once.

`_process_received_pdu` is called by `on_receive_pdu` for incoming
events and `_process_pulled_event` for backfill. The latter should never
try to persist partial state events, so we ignore it. We catch the
`PartialStateConflictError` in `on_receive_pdu` and retry just once.

Refering to the graph of code paths in
https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12988#issuecomment-1156857648
may make the above make more sense.

Refactor EventContext (#12689)
Refactor how the `EventContext` class works, with the intention of reducing the amount of state we fetch from the DB during event processing.

The idea here is to get rid of the cached `current_state_ids` and `prev_state_ids` that live in the `EventContext`, and instead defer straight to the database (and its caching). 

One change that may have a noticeable effect is that we now no longer prefill the `get_current_state_ids` cache on a state change. However, that query is relatively light, since its just a case of reading a table from the DB (unlike fetching state at an event which is more heavyweight). For deployments with workers this cache isn't even used.

Fix historical messages backfilling in random order on remote homeservers (MSC2716) (#11114)
Fix https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11091
Fix https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10764 (side-stepping the issue because we no longer have to deal with `fake_prev_event_id`)

 1. Made the `/backfill` response return messages in `(depth, stream_ordering)` order (previously only sorted by `depth`)
    - Technically, it shouldn't really matter how `/backfill` returns things but I'm just trying to make the `stream_ordering` a little more consistent from the origin to the remote homeservers in order to get the order of messages from `/messages` consistent ([sorted by `(topological_ordering, stream_ordering)`](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/development/room-dag-concepts.md#depth-and-stream-ordering)).
    - Even now that we return backfilled messages in order, it still doesn't guarantee the same `stream_ordering` (and more importantly the [`/messages` order](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/development/room-dag-concepts.md#depth-and-stream-ordering)) on the other server. For example, if a room has a bunch of history imported and someone visits a permalink to a historical message back in time, their homeserver will skip over the historical messages in between and insert the permalink as the next message in the `stream_order` and totally throw off the sort.
       - This will be even more the case when we add the [MSC3030 jump to date API endpoint](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/3030) so the static archives can navigate and jump to a certain date.
       - We're solving this in the future by switching to [online topological ordering](https://github.com/matrix-org/gomatrixserverlib/issues/187) and [chunking](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/3785) which by its nature will apply retroactively to fix any inconsistencies introduced by people permalinking
 2. As we're navigating `prev_events` to return in `/backfill`, we order by `depth` first (newest -> oldest) and now also tie-break based on the `stream_ordering` (newest -> oldest). This is technically important because MSC2716 inserts a bunch of historical messages at the same `depth` so it's best to be prescriptive about which ones we should process first. In reality, I think the code already looped over the historical messages as expected because the database is already in order.
 3. Making the historical state chain and historical event chain float on their own by having no `prev_events` instead of a fake `prev_event` which caused backfill to get clogged with an unresolvable event. Fixes https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11091 and https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10764
 4. We no longer find connected insertion events by finding a potential `prev_event` connection to the current event we're iterating over. We now solely rely on marker events which when processed, add the insertion event as an extremity and the federating homeserver can ask about it when time calls.

#### Why aren't we sorting topologically when receiving backfill events?

> The main reason we're going to opt to not sort topologically when receiving backfill events is because it's probably best to do whatever is easiest to make it just work. People will probably have opinions once they look at [MSC2716](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2716) which could change whatever implementation anyway.
> 
> As mentioned, ideally we would do this but code necessary to make the fake edges but it gets confusing and gives an impression of “just whyyyy” (feels icky). This problem also dissolves with online topological ordering.

Remove log_function and its uses (#11761)
I've never found this terribly useful. I think it was added in the early days
of Synapse, without much thought as to what would actually be useful to log,
and has just been cargo-culted ever since.

Rather, it tends to clutter up debug logs with useless information.

Add MSC3030 experimental client and federation API endpoints to get the closest event to a given timestamp (#9445)
MSC3030: https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/3030

Client API endpoint. This will also go and fetch from the federation API endpoint if unable to find an event locally or we found an extremity with possibly a closer event we don't know about.
```
GET /_matrix/client/unstable/org.matrix.msc3030/rooms/<roomID>/timestamp_to_event?ts=<timestamp>&dir=<direction>
{
    "event_id": ...
    "origin_server_ts": ...
}
```

Federation API endpoint:
```
GET /_matrix/federation/unstable/org.matrix.msc3030/timestamp_to_event/<roomID>?ts=<timestamp>&dir=<direction>
{
    "event_id": ...
    "origin_server_ts": ...
}
```

Move _persist_auth_tree into FederationEventHandler (#11115)
This is just a lift-and-shift, because it fits more naturally here. We do
rename it to `process_remote_join` at the same time though.

Check *all* auth events for room id and rejection (#11009)
This fixes a bug where we would accept an event whose `auth_events` include
rejected events, if the rejected event was shadowed by another `auth_event`
with same `(type, state_key)`.

The approach is to pass a list of auth events into
`check_auth_rules_for_event` instead of a dict, which of course means updating
the call sites.

This is an extension of #10956.
