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.
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.
