Thanks to some slightly overzealous cleanup in the
`delete_old_current_state_events`, it's possible to end up with no
`event_forward_extremities` in a room where we have outstanding local
invites. The user would then get a "no create event in auth events" when trying
to reject the invite.
We can hack around it by using the dangling invite as the prev event.
The replication client requires that arguments are given as keyword
arguments, which was not done in this case. We also pull out the logic
so that we can catch and handle any exceptions raised, rather than
leaving them unhandled.
When fetching the state of a room over federation we receive the event
IDs of the state and auth chain. We then fetch those events that we
don't already have.
However, we used a function that recursively fetched any missing auth
events for the fetched events, which can lead to a lot of recursion if
the server is missing most of the auth chain. This work is entirely
pointless because would have queued up the missing events in the auth
chain to be fetched already.
Let's just diable the recursion, since it only gets called from one
place anyway.
Fixes#2181.
The basic premise is that, when we
fail to reject an invite via the remote server, we can generate our own
out-of-band leave event and persist it as an outlier, so that we have something
to send to the client.
The CI appears to use the latest version of isort, which is a problem when isort gets a major version bump. Rather than try to pin the version, I've done the necessary to make isort5 happy with synapse.
