* Have replication clients remove _INT_STREAM_POS
Suppose worker A makes an internal http request from worker B. B may
make changes that A later learns about over replication. We want A's
request to block until it has seen those changes—mainly to ensure A's
caches are invalidated promptly. This helps provide read-after-write
consistency, eliminating entire categories of races and test flakes.
To implement this, B includes a top-level field `_INT_STREAM_POS` in its
response JSON. Roughly speaking, the field's value tells A what to wait
for. But we weren't removing that internal field before A's request
completed!
Introduced in https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/14820.
Fixes#15308.
* Changelog
With Redis commands do not need to be re-issued by the main
process (they fan-out to all processes at once) and thus it is no
longer necessary to worry about them reflecting recursively forever.
* Allow `AbstractSet` in `StrCollection`
Or else frozensets are excluded. This will be useful in an upcoming
commit where I plan to change a function that accepts `List[str]` to
accept `StrCollection` instead.
* `rooms_to_exclude` -> `rooms_to_exclude_globally`
I am about to make use of this exclusion mechanism to exclude rooms for
a specific user and a specific sync. This rename helps to clarify the
distinction between the global config and the rooms to exclude for a
specific sync.
* Better function names for internal sync methods
* Track a list of excluded rooms on SyncResultBuilder
I plan to feed a list of partially stated rooms for this sync to ignore
* Exclude partial state rooms during eager sync
using the mechanism established in the previous commit
* Track un-partial-state stream in sync tokens
So that we can work out which rooms have become fully-stated during a
given sync period.
* Fix mutation of `@cached` return value
This was fouling up a complement test added alongside this PR.
Excluding a room would mean the set of forgotten rooms in the cache
would be extended. This means that room could be erroneously considered
forgotten in the future.
Introduced in #12310, Synapse 1.57.0. I don't think this had any
user-visible side effects (until now).
* SyncResultBuilder: track rooms to force as newly joined
Similar plan as before. We've omitted rooms from certain sync responses;
now we establish the mechanism to reintroduce them into future syncs.
* Read new field, to present rooms as newly joined
* Force un-partial-stated rooms to be newly-joined
for eager incremental syncs only, provided they're still fully stated
* Notify user stream listeners to wake up long polling syncs
* Changelog
* Typo fix

* Faster joins: Update room stats and user directory on workers when done
When finishing a partial state join to a room, we update the current
state of the room without persisting additional events. Workers receive
notice of the current state update over replication, but neglect to wake
the room stats and user directory updaters, which then get incidentally
triggered the next time an event is persisted or an unrelated event
persister sends out a stream position update.
We wake the room stats and user directory updaters at the appropriate
time in this commit.

Now that we wait for stream positions whenever we do a HTTP replication
hit, we need to be less brutal in the case where we do timeout (as we
have bugs around this).
We were incorrectly checking if the *local* token had been advanced, rather than the token for the remote instance.
In practice, I don't think this has caused any bugs due to where we use `wait_for_stream_position`, as critically we don't use it on instances that also write to the given streams (and so the local token will lag behind all remote tokens).
This creates a new store method, `process_replication_position` that
is called after `process_replication_rows`. By moving stream ID advances
here this guarantees any relevant cache invalidations will have been
applied before the stream is advanced.
This avoids race conditions where Python switches between threads mid
way through processing the `process_replication_rows` method where stream
IDs may be advanced before caches are invalidated due to class resolution
ordering.

This was the last untyped handler from the HomeServer object. Since
it was being treated as Any (and thus unchecked) it was being used
incorrectly in a few places.

Remove type hints from comments which have been added
as Python type hints. This helps avoid drift between comments
and reality, as well as removing redundant information.
Also adds some missing type hints which were simple to fill in.
This matches the multi instance writer ID generator class which can
both handle advancing the current token over replication and by calling
the database.
This adds support for the stable identifiers of MSC2285 while
continuing to support the unstable identifiers behind the configuration
flag. These will be removed in a future version.
More prep work for asyncronous caching, also makes all process_replication_rows methods consistent (presence handler already is so).

Bounce recalculation of current state to the correct event persister and
move recalculation of current state into the event persistence queue, to
avoid concurrent updates to a room's current state.
Also give recalculation of a room's current state a real stream
ordering.

Whenever we want to persist an event, we first compute an event context,
which includes the state at the event and a flag indicating whether the
state is partial. After a lot of processing, we finally try to store the
event in the database, which can fail for partial state events when the
containing room has been un-partial stated in the meantime.
We detect the race as a foreign key constraint failure in the data store
layer and turn it into a special `PartialStateConflictError` exception,
which makes its way up to the method in which we computed the event
context.
To make things difficult, the exception needs to cross a replication
request: `/fed_send_events` for events coming over federation and
`/send_event` for events from clients. We transport the
`PartialStateConflictError` as a `409 Conflict` over replication and
turn `409`s back into `PartialStateConflictError`s on the worker making
the request.
All client events go through
`EventCreationHandler.handle_new_client_event`, which is called in
*a lot* of places. Instead of trying to update all the code which
creates client events, we turn the `PartialStateConflictError` into a
`429 Too Many Requests` in
`EventCreationHandler.handle_new_client_event` and hope that clients
take it as a hint to retry their request.
On the federation event side, there are 7 places which compute event
contexts. 4 of them use outlier event contexts:
`FederationEventHandler._auth_and_persist_outliers_inner`,
`FederationHandler.do_knock`, `FederationHandler.on_invite_request` and
`FederationHandler.do_remotely_reject_invite`. These events won't have
the partial state flag, so we do not need to do anything for then.
The remaining 3 paths which create events are
`FederationEventHandler.process_remote_join`,
`FederationEventHandler.on_send_membership_event` and
`FederationEventHandler._process_received_pdu`.
We can't experience the race in `process_remote_join`, unless we're
handling an additional join into a partial state room, which currently
blocks, so we make no attempt to handle it correctly.
`on_send_membership_event` is only called by
`FederationServer._on_send_membership_event`, so we catch the
`PartialStateConflictError` there and retry just once.
`_process_received_pdu` is called by `on_receive_pdu` for incoming
events and `_process_pulled_event` for backfill. The latter should never
try to persist partial state events, so we ignore it. We catch the
`PartialStateConflictError` in `on_receive_pdu` and retry just once.
Refering to the graph of code paths in
https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12988#issuecomment-1156857648
may make the above make more sense.

While `ReplicationEndpoint`s register themselves via `JsonResource`,
they pass a method that calls the handler, instead of the handler itself,
to `register_paths`. As a result, `JsonResource` will not correctly pick
up the `@cancellable` flag and we have to apply it ourselves.

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.
Since the object it returns is a ReplicationCommandHandler.
This is clean-up from adding support to Redis where the command handler
was added as an additional layer of abstraction from the TCP protocol.
This allows for the target process to be down for around a minute
which provides time for restarts during synapse upgrades/config updates.
Closes: #12178

* 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

Instead of triggering `__exit__` manually on the replication handler's
logging context, use it as a context manager so that there is an
`__enter__` call to balance the `__exit__`.
This commit fixes two bugs to do with decorators not instrumenting
`ReplicationEndpoint`'s `send_request` correctly. There are two
decorators on `send_request`: Prometheus' `Gauge.track_inprogress()`
and Synapse's `opentracing.trace`.
`Gauge.track_inprogress()` does not have any support for async
functions when used as a decorator. Since async functions behave like
regular functions that return coroutines, only the creation of the
coroutine was covered by the metric and none of the actual body of
`send_request`.
`Gauge.track_inprogress()` returns a regular, non-async function
wrapping `send_request`, which is the source of the next bug.
The `opentracing.trace` decorator would normally handle async functions
correctly, but since the wrapped `send_request` is a non-async function,
the decorator ends up suffering from the same issue as
`Gauge.track_inprogress()`: the opentracing span only measures the
creation of the coroutine and none of the actual function body.
Using `Gauge.track_inprogress()` as a context manager instead of a
decorator resolves both bugs.
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`).
This follows a correction made in twisted/twisted#1664 and should fix our Twisted Trial CI job.
Until that change is in a twisted release, we'll have to ignore the type
of the `host` argument. I've raised #10899 to remind us to review the
issue in a few months' time.
