From 06ba71083eefbe1fd9a8eeed10e541dd7b52796f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Robertson Date: Tue, 14 Feb 2023 23:42:29 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Fix order of partial state tables when purging (#15068) * Fix order of partial state tables when purging `partial_state_rooms` has an FK on `events` pointing to the join event we get from `/send_join`, so we must delete from that table before deleting from `events`. **NB:** It would be nice to cancel any resync processes for the room being purged. We do not do this at present. To do so reliably we'd need an internal HTTP "replication" endpoint, because the worker doing the resync process may be different to that handling the purge request. The first time the resync process tries to write data after the deletion it will fail because we have deleted necessary data e.g. auth events. AFAICS it will not retry the resync, so the only downside to not cancelling the resync is a scary-looking traceback. (This is presumably extremely race-sensitive.) * Changelog * admist(?) -> between * Warn about a race * Fix typo, thanks Sean Co-authored-by: Sean Quah <8349537+squahtx@users.noreply.github.com> --------- Co-authored-by: Sean Quah <8349537+squahtx@users.noreply.github.com> --- changelog.d/15068.bugfix | 1 + synapse/handlers/federation.py | 5 +++++ synapse/storage/databases/main/purge_events.py | 6 ++++-- 3 files changed, 10 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) create mode 100644 changelog.d/15068.bugfix diff --git a/changelog.d/15068.bugfix b/changelog.d/15068.bugfix new file mode 100644 index 000000000..f09ffa287 --- /dev/null +++ b/changelog.d/15068.bugfix @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.76.0 where partially-joined rooms could not be deleted using the [purge room API](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/admin_api/rooms.html#delete-room-api). diff --git a/synapse/handlers/federation.py b/synapse/handlers/federation.py index 08727e485..1d0f6bcd6 100644 --- a/synapse/handlers/federation.py +++ b/synapse/handlers/federation.py @@ -1880,6 +1880,11 @@ class FederationHandler: logger.info("Updating current state for %s", room_id) # TODO(faster_joins): notify workers in notify_room_un_partial_stated # https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12994 + # + # NB: there's a potential race here.
