Reduce the replication traffic of device lists, by not sending every
destination that needs to be sent the device list update over
replication. Instead a "hosts to send to have been calculated"
notification over replication, and then federation senders read the
destinations from the DB.
For non federation senders this should heavily reduce the impact of a
user in many large rooms changing a device.
The parse_integer function was previously made to reject negative values by
default in https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/pull/16920, but the
documentation stated otherwise. This fixes the documentation and also:
- Removes explicit negative=False parameters from call sites.
- Brings the negative default of parse_integer_from_args in alignment with
parse_integer.
This reverts commit bdf82efea5 (#17291)
This seems to have stopped persisting auth chains for new events, and so
is causing state res to fall back to the slow methods
We calculate the auth chain links outside of the main persist event
transaction to ensure that we do not block other event sending during
the calculation.
This changes the release artefacts workflow to use `macos-12` runners
instead of `macos-11`, as the latter will be fully deprecated in a few
days.
This also updates `cibuildwheel` to a newer version, as it would not
'repair' the macOS wheels correctly
The difference is that now instead of outputting a macOS 11+ compatible
wheel, we output a macOS 12+ compatible one. This is fine, as macOS 11
is considered EOL since September 2023.
We can also expect that macOS 12 will be considered EOL in September
2024, as Apple usually supports the last 3 macOS version, and macOS 15
is scheduled to be released around that time.
Sort is no longer configurable and we always sort rooms by the `stream_ordering` of the last event in the room or the point where the user can see up to in cases of leave/ban/invite/knock.
Add `event.internal_metadata.instance_name` (the worker instance that persisted the event) to go alongside the existing `event.internal_metadata.stream_ordering`.
`instance_name` is useful to properly compare and query for events with a token since you need to compare both the `stream_ordering` and `instance_name` against the vector clock/`instance_map` in the `RoomStreamToken`.
This is pre-requisite work and may be used in https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/pull/17293
Adding `event.internal_metadata.instance_name` was first mentioned in the initial Sliding Sync PR while pairing with @erikjohnston, see 09609cb0db (diff-5cd773fb307aa754bd3948871ba118b1ef0303f4d72d42a2d21e38242bf4e096R405-R410)
PR where this was introduced: https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/14817
### What does this affect?
`get_last_event_in_room_before_stream_ordering(...)` is used in Sync v2 in a lot of different state calculations.
`get_last_event_in_room_before_stream_ordering(...)` is also used in `/rooms/{roomId}/members`

This is intended to be enabled by default for immediate use. When FCP is
complete, the unstable endpoint will be dropped and stable endpoint
supported instead - no backwards compatibility is expected for the
unstable endpoint.
