In `MatrixFederationHttpClient._send_request()`, we make a HTTP request
using an `Agent`, wrap that request in a timeout and await the resulting
`Deferred`. On its own, the `Agent` performing the HTTP request
correctly stashes and restores the logging context while waiting.
The addition of the timeout introduces a path where the logging context
is not restored when execution resumes.
To address this, we wrap the timeout `Deferred` in a
`make_deferred_yieldable()` to stash the logging context and restore it
on completion of the `await`. However this is not sufficient, since by
the time we construct the timeout `Deferred`, the `Agent` has already
stashed and cleared the logging context when using
`make_deferred_yieldable()` to produce its `Deferred` for the request.
Hence, we wrap the `Agent` request in a `run_in_background()` to "fork"
and preserve the logging context so that we can stash and restore it
when `await`ing the timeout `Deferred`.
This approach is similar to the one used with `defer.gatherResults`.
Note that the code is still not fully correct. When a timeout occurs,
the request remains running in the background (existing behavior which
is nothing to do with the new call to `run_in_background`) and may
re-start the logging context after it has finished.
I had one of these error messages yesterday and assumed it was an
invalid auth token (because that was an HTTP query parameter in the
test) I was working on. In fact, it was an invalid next batch token for
syncing.
We've already batched up the events previously, and assume in other
places in the events.py file that we have. Removing this makes it easier
to adjust the batch sizes in one place.
Hint to clients via the room capabilities API (MSC3244) that
room version 9 should be preferred for creating a room with
restricted join rules (instead of room version 8).
This adds the format to the request arguments / URL to
ensure that JSON data is returned (which is all that
Synapse supports).
This also adds additional error checking / filtering to the
configuration file to ignore XML-only providers.
I think I have finally teased apart the codepaths which handle outliers, and those that handle non-outliers.
Let's add some assertions to demonstrate my newfound knowledge.
If we're persisting an event E which has auth_events A1, A2, then we ought to make sure that we correctly auth
and persist A1 and A2, before we blindly accept E.
This PR does part of that - it persists the auth events first - but it does not fully solve the problem, because we
still don't check that the auth events weren't rejected.
The full event content cannot be trusted from this API (as no auth
chain, etc.) is processed over federation. Returning the full event
content was a bug as MSC2946 specifies that only the stripped
state should be returned.
This also avoids calculating aggregations / annotations which go
unused.
Synapse 1.42.0rc2 (2021-09-06)
==============================
This version of Synapse removes deprecated room-management admin APIs, removes out-of-date
email pushers, and improves error handling for fallback templates for user-interactive
authentication. For more information on these points, server administrators are
encouraged to read [the upgrade notes](docs/upgrade.md#upgrading-to-v1420).
Features
--------
- Support room version 9 from [MSC3375](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/3375). ([\#10747](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10747))
Internal Changes
----------------
- Print a warning when using one of the deprecated `template_dir` settings. ([\#10768](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10768))
The deprecation itself happened in #10596 which shipped with Synapse v1.41.0. However, it doesn't seem fair to suddenly drop support for these settings in ~4-6w without being more vocal about said deprecation.
This is part of my ongoing war against BaseHandler. I've moved kick_guest_users into RoomMemberHandler (since it calls out to that handler anyway), and split maybe_kick_guest_users into the two places it is called.
* Allow room creator to send MSC2716 related events in existing room versions
Discussed at https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2716/#discussion_r682474869
Restoring `get_create_event_for_room_txn` from,
44bb3f0cf5
* Add changelog
* Stop people from trying to redact MSC2716 events in unsupported room versions
* Populate rooms.creator column for easy lookup
> From some [out of band discussion](https://matrix.to/#/!UytJQHLQYfvYWsGrGY:jki.re/$p2fKESoFst038x6pOOmsY0C49S2gLKMr0jhNMz_JJz0?via=jki.re&via=matrix.org), my plan is to use `rooms.creator`. But currently, we don't fill in `creator` for remote rooms when a user is invited to a room for example. So we need to add some code to fill in `creator` wherever we add to the `rooms` table. And also add a background update to fill in the rows missing `creator` (we can use the same logic that `get_create_event_for_room_txn` is doing by looking in the state events to get the `creator`).

We use `txn.fetchall` because it will return the results as a
list or an empty list when there are no results.
Docs:
> `cursor` objects are iterable, so, instead of calling explicitly fetchone() in a loop, the object itself can be used:
>
> https://www.psycopg.org/docs/cursor.html#cursor-iterable
And I'm guessing iterating over a raw cursor does something weird when there are no results.
