(since it uses methods therein)
Turns out that we had a bunch of things which were incorrectly importing
EventWorkerStore from events.py rather than events_worker.py, which broke once
I removed the import into events.py.
It turns out that looping_call does check the deferred returned by its
callback, and (at least in the case of client_ips), we were relying on this,
and I broke it in #3604.
Update run_as_background_process to return the deferred, and make sure we
return it to clock.looping_call.
This fixes a bug in _delete_existing_rows_txn which was introduced in #3435
(though it's been on matrix-org-hotfixes for *years*). This code is only called
when there is some sort of conflict the first time we try to persist an event,
so it only happens rarely. Still, the exceptions are annoying.
We need to run the errback in the sentinel context to avoid losing our own
context.
Also: add logging to runInteraction to help identify where "Starting db
connection from sentinel context" warnings are coming from
_update_remote_profile_cache was missing its `defer.inlineCallbacks`, so when
it was called, would just return a generator object, without actually running
any of the method body.
on_notifier_poke no longer runs synchonously, so we have to do a different hack
to make sure that the replication data has been sent. Let's actually listen for
its arrival.
We incorrectly asserted that all contexts must have a non None state
group without consider outliers. This would usually be fine as the
assertion would never be hit, as there is a shortcut during persistence
if the forward extremities don't change.
However, if the outlier is being persisted with non-outlier events, the
function would be called and the assertion would be hit.
Fixes#3601
This allows us to handle /context/ requests on the client_reader worker
without having to pull in all the various stream handlers (e.g.
precence, typing, pushers etc). The only thing the token gets used for
is pagination, and that ignores everything but the room portion of the
token.
