It's almost always more efficient to query the rooms that have device
list changes, rather than looking at the list of all users whose devices
have changed and then look for shared rooms.
Weakness in auth chain indexing allows DoS from remote room members
through disk fill and high CPU usage.
A remote Matrix user with malicious intent, sharing a room with Synapse
instances before 1.104.1, can dispatch specially crafted events to
exploit a weakness in how the auth chain cover index is calculated. This
can induce high CPU consumption and accumulate excessive data in the
database of such instances, resulting in a denial of service.
Servers in private federations, or those that do not federate, are not
affected.

This should reduce IOPs incurred by joining to the events table to
lookup stream ordering, which happens in many receipt handling code
paths. Like the previous PR I believe sufficient time has passed between
the original migration in DB schema 72 and now to merge this as-is. It's
highly unlikely that both the migration is still ongoing AND (active)
users still have any receipts prior to that date.
In the unlikely event there is a receipt without a populated
`event_stream_ordering` synapse will behave just as it does now when
receipts exist for events that don't (yet): for push action calculation
the receipts are just ignored.
I've removed the validation on event IDs as this is already covered
here:
59ceabcb97/synapse/handlers/receipts.py (L189-L192)
Before we were pulling out *all* read receipts for a user for every
event we pushed. Instead let's only pull out the relevant receipts.
This also pulled out the event rows for each receipt, causing load on
the events table.
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.
Since Synapse 1.76.0, any module which registers a `on_new_event`
callback would brick the ability to join remote rooms.
This is because this callback tried to get the full state of the room,
which would end up in a deadlock.

https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse-auto-accept-invite/issues/18
The following module would brick the ability to join remote rooms:
```python
from typing import Any, Dict, Literal, Union
import logging
from synapse.module_api import ModuleApi, EventBase
logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
class MyModule:
def __init__(self, config: None, api: ModuleApi):
self._api = api
self._config = config
self._api.register_third_party_rules_callbacks(
on_new_event=self.on_new_event,
)
async def on_new_event(self, event: EventBase, _state_map: Any) -> None:
logger.info(f"Received new event: {event}")
@staticmethod
def parse_config(_config: Dict[str, Any]) -> None:
return None
```
This is technically a breaking change, as we are now passing partial
state on the `on_new_event` callback.
However, this callback was broken for federated rooms since 1.76.0, and
local rooms have full state anyway, so it's unlikely that it would
change anything.
We do this by adding support to the LRU cache for "extra indices" based
on the cached value. This allows us to efficiently map from room ID to
the cached events and only invalidate those.
This basically reverts a change that was in
https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/pull/16833, where we reduced the
batching.
The smaller batching can cause performance issues on busy servers and
databases.
During the migration the automated script to update the copyright
headers accidentally got rid of some of the existing copyright lines.
Reinstate them.
The current query supports passing in a list of users, which generates a
query using `user_id = ANY(..)`. This is generates a less efficient
query plan that is notably slower than a simple `user_id = ?` condition.
Note: The new function is mostly a copy and paste and then a
simplification of the existing function.
The crux of the change is to try and make the queries simpler and pull
out fewer rows. Before, there were quite a few joins against subqueries,
which caused postgres to pull out more rows than necessary.
Instead, let's simplify the query and do some of the filtering out in
Python instead, letting Postgres do better optimizations now that it
doesn't have to deal with joins against subqueries.
Review note: this is a complete rewrite of the function, so not sure how
useful the diff is.

There are two changes here:
1. Only pull out the required state when handling the request.
2. Change the get filtered state return type to check that we're only
querying state that was requested

There are a couple of things we need to be careful of here:
1. The current python code does no validation when loading from the DB,
so we need to be careful to ignore such errors (at least on jki.re there
are some old events with internal metadata fields of the wrong type).
2. We want to be memory efficient, as we often have many hundreds of
thousands of events in the cache at a time.

We remove these fields as they're just duplicating data the event
already stores, and (for reasons 🤫) I'd like to simplify
the class to only store simple types.
I'm not entirely convinced that we shouldn't instead add helper methods
to the event class to generate stream tokens, but I don't really think
that's where they belong either
This reverts two commits:
0bb8e418a4
"Fix postgres schema after dropping old tables (#16730)"
and
51e4e35653
"Add a Postgres `REPLICA IDENTITY` to tables that do not have an implicit one. This should allow use of Postgres logical replication. (take 2, now with no added deadlocks!) (#16658)"
and also amends the changelog.
* Add `ALTER TABLE ... REPLICA IDENTITY ...` for individual tables
We can't combine them into one file as it makes it likely to hit a deadlock
if Synapse is running, as it only takes one other transaction to access two
tables in a different order to the schema delta.
