We work through all the events with partial state, updating the state at each
of them. Once it's done, we recalculate the state for the whole room, and then
mark the room as having complete state.

See #12285 / 4df10d3214
for corresponding changes for the `/relations` endpoint.
Principally, `prometheus_client.REGISTRY.register` now requires its argument to
extend `prometheus_client.Collector`.
Additionally, `Gauge.set` is now annotated so that passing `Optional[int]`
causes an error.
Refactor and convert `Linearizer` to async. This makes a `Linearizer`
cancellation bug easier to fix.
Also refactor to use an async context manager, which eliminates an
unlikely footgun where code that doesn't immediately use the context
manager could forget to release the lock.

This is a first step in dealing with #7721.
The idea is basically that rather than calculating the full set of users a device list update needs to be sent to up front, we instead simply record the rooms the user was in at the time of the change. This will allow a few things:
1. we can defer calculating the set of remote servers that need to be poked about the change; and
2. during `/sync` and `/keys/changes` we can avoid also avoid calculating users who share rooms with other users, and instead just look at the rooms that have changed.
However, care needs to be taken to correctly handle server downgrades. As such this PR writes to both `device_lists_changes_in_room` and the `device_lists_outbound_pokes` table synchronously. In a future release we can then bump the database schema compat version to `69` and then we can assume that the new `device_lists_changes_in_room` exists and is handled.
There is a temporary option to disable writing to `device_lists_outbound_pokes` synchronously, allowing us to test the new code path does work (and by implication upgrading to a future release and downgrading to this one will work correctly).
Note: Ideally we'd do the calculation of room to servers on a worker (e.g. the background worker), but currently only master can write to the `device_list_outbound_pokes` table.
Switching to a sequence means there's no need to track `last_txn` on the
AS state table to generate new TXN IDs. This also means that there is
no longer contention between the AS scheduler and AS handler on updates
to the `application_services_state` table, which will prevent serialization
errors during the complete AS txn transaction.
It seems like calling `_get_state_group_for_events` for an event where the
state is unknown is an error. Accordingly, let's raise an exception rather than
silently returning an empty result.
If we're missing most of the events in the room state, then we may as well call the /state endpoint, instead of individually requesting each and every event.
The PaginationChunk class attempted to bundle some properties
together, but really just caused callers to jump through hoops and
hid implementation details.
This endpoint was removed from MSC2675 before it was approved.
It is currently unspecified (even in any MSCs) and therefore subject to
removal. It is not implemented by any known clients.
This also changes the bundled aggregation format for `m.annotation`,
which previously included pagination tokens for the `/aggregations`
endpoint, which are no longer useful.
When we are processing a `/backfill` request from a remote server, exclude any
outliers from consideration early on. We can't return outliers anyway (since we
don't know the state at the outlier), and filtering them out earlier means that
we won't attempt to calulate the state for them.
This should speed up push rule calculations for rooms with large numbers of local users when the main push rule cache fails.

We fetch the thread summary in two phases:
1. The summary that is shared by all users (count of messages and latest event).
2. Whether the requesting user has participated in the thread.
There's no use in attempting step 2 for events which did not return a summary
from step 1.

The unstable identifiers are still supported if the experimental configuration
flag is enabled. The unstable identifiers will be removed in a future release.
This is allowed per MSC2675, although the original implementation did
not allow for it and would return an empty chunk / not bundle aggregations.
The main thing to improve is that the various caches get cleared properly
when an event is redacted, and that edits must not leak if the original
event is redacted (as that would presumably leak something similar to
the original event content).
* `@cached` can now take an `uncached_args` which is an iterable of names to not use in the cache key.
* Requires `@cached`, @cachedList` and `@lru_cache` to use keyword arguments for clarity.
* Asserts that keyword-only arguments in cached functions are not accepted. (I tested this briefly and I don't believe this works properly.)
When we get a partial_state response from send_join, store information in the
database about it:
* store a record about the room as a whole having partial state, and stash the
list of member servers too.
* flag the join event itself as having partial state
* also, for any new events whose prev-events are partial-stated, note that
they will *also* be partial-stated.
We don't yet make any attempt to interpret this data, so API calls (and a bunch
of other things) are just going to get incorrect data.
Don't attempt to add non-string `value`s to `event_search` and add a
background update to clear out bad rows from `event_search` when
using sqlite.

For users with large accounts it is inefficient to calculate the set of
users they share a room with (and takes a lot of space in the cache).
Instead we can look at users whose devices have changed since the last
sync and check if they share a room with the syncing user.
When the server leaves a room the `get_rooms_for_user` cache is not
correctly invalidated for the remote users in the room. This means that
subsequent calls to `get_rooms_for_user` for the remote users would
incorrectly include the room (it shouldn't be included because the
server no longer knows anything about the room).
Splits the search code into a few logical functions instead of a single
unreadable function.
There are also a few additional changes for readability.
After refactoring it was clear to see there were some unused and
unnecessary variables, which were simplified.
If the latest event in a thread was edited than the original
event content was included in bundled aggregation for
threads instead of the edited event content.
* Make `get_auth_chain_ids` return a Set
It has a set internally, and a set is often useful where it gets used, so let's
avoid converting to an intermediate list.
* Minor refactors in `on_send_join_request`
A little bit of non-functional groundwork
* Implement MSC3706: partial state in /send_join response
This should reduce database usage when fetching bundled aggregations
as the number of individual queries (and round trips to the database) are
reduced.
If ther are more than 100 to-device messages pending for a device
`/sync` will only return the first 100, however the next batch token was
incorrectly calculated and so all other pending messages would be
dropped.
This is due to `txn.rowcount` only returning the number of rows that
*changed*, rather than the number *selected* in SQLite.
This should reduce database usage when fetching bundled aggregations
as the number of individual queries (and round trips to the database) are
reduced.
The get_users_in_room and get_users_in_room_with_profiles
are now only invalidated when the membership of a room changes,
instead of during any state change in the room.

This is some odds and ends found during the review of #11791
and while continuing to work in this code:
* Return attrs classes instead of dictionaries from some methods
to improve type safety.
* Call `get_bundled_aggregations` fewer times.
* Adds a missing assertion in the tests.
* Do not return empty bundled aggregations for an event (preferring
to not include the bundle at all, as the docstring states).

Merge tag 'v1.51.0rc2' into develop
Synapse 1.51.0rc2 (2022-01-24)
==============================
Bugfixes
--------
- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.40.0 that caused Synapse to fail to process incoming federation traffic after handling a large amount of events in a v1 room. ([\#11806](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11806))
Debug for #8631.
I'm having a hard time tracking down what's going wrong in that issue.
In the reported example, I could see server A sending federation traffic
to server B and all was well. Yet B reports out-of-sync device updates
from A.
I couldn't see what was _in_ the events being sent from A to B. So I
have added some crude logging to track
- when we have updates to send to a remote HS
- the edus we actually accumulate to send
- when a federation transaction includes a device list update edu
- when such an EDU is received
This is a bit of a sledgehammer.
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.
Always add state.room_id after the configurable ORDER BY. Otherwise,
for any sort, certain pages can contain results from
other pages. (Especially when sorting by creator, since there may
be many rooms by the same creator)
* Document different order direction of numerical fields
"joined_members", "joined_local_members", "version" and "state_events"
are ordered in descending direction by default (dir=f). Added a note
in tests to explain the differences in ordering.

This makes the serialization of events synchronous (and it no
longer access the database), but we must manually calculate and
provide the bundled aggregations.
Overall this should cause no change in behavior, but is prep work
for other improvements.
* Push `get_room_{min,max_stream_ordering}` into StreamStore
Both implementations of this are identical, so we may as well push it down and
get rid of the abstract base class nonsense.
* Remove redundant `StreamStore` class
This is empty now
* Remove redundant `get_current_events_token`
This was an exact duplicate of `get_room_max_stream_ordering`, so let's get rid
of it.
* newsfile
A couple of safety-checks to hopefully stop people doing what I just did, and create a storage
function which only works the first time it is called (and not when it is re-run due to a database
concurrency error or similar).
Create a new dict helper method `simple_insert_many_values_txn`, which takes
raw row values, rather than {key=>value} dicts. This saves us a bunch of dict
munging, and makes it easier to use generators rather than creating
intermediate lists and dicts.
This mainly consists of docstrings and inline comments. There are one or two type annotations and variable renames thrown in while I was here.

Call stack:
- `_persist_events_and_state_updates` (added `use_negative_stream_ordering`)
- `_persist_events_txn`
- `_update_room_depths_txn` (added `update_room_forward_stream_ordering`)
- `_update_metadata_tables_txn`
- `_store_room_members_txn` (added `inhibit_local_membership_updates`)
Using keyword-only arguments (`*`) to reduce the mistakes from `backfilled` being left as a positional argument somewhere and being interpreted wrong by our new arguments.
The previous fix for the ongoing event fetches counter
(8eec25a1d9) was both insufficient and
incorrect.
When the database is unreachable, `_do_fetch` never gets run and so
`_event_fetch_ongoing` is never decremented.
The previous fix also moved the `_event_fetch_ongoing` decrement outside
of the `_event_fetch_lock` which allowed race conditions to corrupt the
counter.

Instead of only known relation types. This also reworks the background
update for thread relations to crawl events and search for any relation
type, not just threaded relations.
Adds validation to the Client-Server API to ensure that
the potential thread head does not relate to another event
already. This results in not allowing a thread to "fork" into
other threads.
If the target event is unknown for some reason (maybe it isn't
visible to your homeserver), but is the target of other events
it is assumed that the thread can be created from it. Otherwise,
it is rejected as an unknown event.
It already seems to pass mypy. I wonder what changed, given that it was
on the exclusion list. So this commit consists of me ensuring
`--disallow-untyped-defs` passes and a minor fixup to a function that

* Make lock better handle process being killed
If the process gets killed and restarted (so that it didn't have a
chance to drop its locks gracefully) then there may still be locks in
the DB that are for the same instance that haven't yet timed out but are
safe to delete.
We handle this case by a) checking if the current instance already has
taken out the lock, and b) if not then ignoring locks that are for the
same instance.
* Periodically check for old staged events
This is to protect against other instances dying and their locks timing
out.
When an event fetcher aborts due to an exception, `_event_fetch_ongoing`
must be decremented, otherwise the event fetcher would never be
replaced. If enough event fetchers were to fail, no more events would be
fetched and requests would get stuck waiting for events.
Users admin API can now also modify user
type in addition to allowing it to be

Resolve and share `state_groups` for all historical events in batch. This also helps for showing the appropriate avatar/displayname in Element and will work whenever `/messages` has one of the historical messages as the first message in the batch.
This does have the flaw where if you just insert a single historical event somewhere, it probably won't resolve the state correctly from `/messages` or `/context` since it will grab a non historical event above or below with resolved state which never included the historical state back then. For the same reasions, this also does not work in Element between the transition from actual messages to historical messages. In the Gitter case, this isn't really a problem since all of the historical messages are in one big lump at the beginning of the room.
For a future iteration, might be good to look at `/messages` and `/context` to additionally add the `state` for any historical messages in that batch.

How are the `state_groups` shared? To illustrate the `state_group` sharing, see this example:
**Before** (new `state_group` for every event 😬, very inefficient):

The following scenarios would halt the user directory updater:
- user joins room
- user leaves room
- user present in room which switches from private to public, or vice versa.
for two classes of users:
- appservice senders
- users missing from the user table.
If this happened, the user directory would be stuck, unable to make forward progress.
Exclude both cases from the user directory, so that we ignore them.

Make `get_last_client_by_ip` return the same dictionary structure
regardless of whether the data has been persisted to the database.
This change will allow slightly cleaner type hints to be applied later
on.
This removes the magic allowing accessing configurable
variables directly from the config object. It is now required
that a specific configuration class is used (e.g. `config.foo`
must be replaced with `config.server.foo`).
There are two steps to rebuilding the user directory:
1. a scan over rooms, followed by
2. a scan over local users.
The former reads avatars and display names from the `room_memberships`
table and therefore contains potentially private avatars and
display names. The latter reads from the the `profiles` table which only
contains public data; moreover it will overwrite any private profiles
that the rooms scan may have written to the user directory. This means
that the rebuild could leak private user while the rebuild was in
progress, only to later cover up the leaks once the rebuild had completed.
This change skips over local users when writing user_directory rows
when scanning rooms. Doing so means that it'll take longer for a rebuild
to make local users searchable, which is unfortunate. I think a future
PR can improve this by swapping the order of the two steps above. (And
indeed there's more to do here, e.g. copying from `profiles` without
going via Python.)
Small tidy-ups while I'm here:
* Remove duplicated code from test_initial. This was meant to be pulled into `purge_and_rebuild_user_dir`.
* Move `is_public` before updating sharing tables. No functional change; it's still before the first read of `is_public`.
* Don't bother creating a set from dict keys. Slightly nicer and makes the code simpler.

We correctly allowed using the MSC2716 batch endpoint for
the room creator in existing room versions but accidentally didn't track
the events because of a logic flaw.
This prevented you from connecting subsequent chunks together because it would
throw the unknown batch ID error.
We only want to process MSC2716 events when:
- The room version supports MSC2716
- Any room where the homeserver has the `msc2716_enabled` experimental feature enabled and the event is from the room creator

* Introduce `should_include_local_users_in_dir`
We exclude three kinds of local users from the user_directory tables. At
present we don't consistently exclude all three in the same places. This
commit introduces a new function to gather those exclusion conditions
together. Because we have to handle local and remote users in different
ways, I've made that function only consider the case of remote users.
It's the caller's responsibility to make the local versus remote
distinction clear and correct.
A test fixup is required. The test now hits a path which makes db
queries against the users table. The expected rows were missing, because
we were using a dummy user that hadn't actually been registered.
We also add new test cases to covert the exclusion logic.
----
By my reading this makes these changes:
* When an app service user registers or changes their profile, they will
_not_ be added to the user directory. (Previously only support and
deactivated users were excluded). This is consistent with the logic that
rebuilds the user directory. See also [the discussion
here](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/10914#discussion_r716859548).
* When rebuilding the directory, exclude support and disabled users from
room sharing tables. Previously only appservice users were excluded.
* Exclude all three categories of local users when rebuilding the
directory. Previously `_populate_user_directory_process_users` didn't do
any exclusion.
