If no `from` param is specified we calculate and use the "current
token" that inlcuded typing, presence, etc. These are unused during
pagination and are not available on workers, so we simply don't
calculate them.
* group the arguments together into a group
* add new names "--generate-missing-config" and "--config-directory" for
existing cmdline options "--generate-keys" and "--keys-dir", which better
reflect their purposes.
Fixes https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5431
`jinja2` was being imported even when it wasn't strictly necessary. This made it required to run Synapse, even if the functionality that required it wasn't enabled. This was causing new Synapse installations to crash on startup.
Email modules are now required.
There is a README.txt which always sets off this warning, which is a bit
alarming when you first start synapse. I don't think we need to warn about
this.
If, for some reason, presence updates take a while to persist then it
can trigger clients to tightloop calling `/sync` due to the presence
handler returning updates but not advancing the stream token.
Fixes#5503.
Fixes intermittent errors observed on Apple hardware which were caused by
time.clock() appearing to go backwards when called from different threads.
Also fixes a bug where database activity times were logged as 1/1000 of their
correct ratio due to confusion between milliseconds and seconds.
I had to add quite a lot of logging to diagnose a problem with 3pid
invites - we only logged the one failure which isn't all that
informative.
NB. I'm not convinced the logic of this loop is right: I think it
should just accept a single valid signature from a trusted source
rather than fail if *any* signature is invalid. Also it should
probably not skip the rest of middle loop if a check fails? However,
I'm deliberately not changing the logic here.
Adds new config option `cleanup_extremities_with_dummy_events` which
periodically sends dummy events to rooms with more than 10 extremities.
THIS IS REALLY EXPERIMENTAL.
