We only process events sent to us from a server if the event ID matches
the server, to help guard against federation storms. We replace this
with a check against the event origin.
We currently pass FrozenEvent instead of `dict` to
`compute_event_signature`, which works by accident due to `dict(event)`
producing the correct result.
This fixes PR #4493 commit 855a151
When we receive events over federation we will need to know the room
version to be able to correctly handle them, e.g. once we start changing
event formats. Currently, we attempt to handle events in unknown rooms.
Broadly three things here:
* disable W504 which seems a bit whacko
* remove a bunch of `as e` expressions from exception handlers that don't use
them
* use `r""` for strings which include backslashes
Also, we don't use pep8 any more, so we can get rid of the duplicate config
there.
It's quite important that get_missing_events returns the *latest* events in the
room; however we were pulling event ids out of the database until we got *at
least* 10, and then taking the *earliest* of the results.
We also shouldn't really be relying on depth, and should be checking the
room_id.
when processing incoming transactions, it can be hard to see what's going on,
because we process a bunch of stuff in parallel, and because we may end up
recursively working our way through a chain of three or four events.
This commit creates a way to use logcontexts to add the relevant event ids to
the log lines.
Add some informative comments about what's going on here.
Also, `sent_to_us_directly` and `get_missing` were doing the same thing (apart
from in `_handle_queued_pdus`, which looks like a bug), so let's get rid of
`get_missing` and use `sent_to_us_directly` consistently.
When we get a federation request which refers to an event id, make sure that
said event is in the room the caller claims it is in.
(patch supplied by @turt2live)
Adds a `.wrap` method to ResponseCache which wraps up the boilerplate of a
(get, set) pair, and then use it throughout the codebase.
This will be largely non-functional, but does include the following functional
changes:
* federation_server.on_context_state_request: drops use of _server_linearizer
which looked redundant and could cause incorrect cache misses by yielding
between the get and the set.
* RoomListHandler.get_remote_public_room_list(): fixes logcontext leaks
* the wrap function includes some logging. I'm hoping this won't be too noisy
on production.
