Background: When we receive incoming federation traffic, and notice that we are missing prev_events from
the incoming traffic, first we do a `/get_missing_events` request, and then if we still have missing prev_events,
we set up new backwards-extremities. To do that, we need to make a `/state_ids` request to ask the remote
server for the state at those prev_events, and then we may need to then ask the remote server for any events
in that state which we don't already have, as well as the auth events for those missing state events, so that we
can auth them.
This PR attempts to optimise the processing of that state request. The `state_ids` API returns a list of the state
events, as well as a list of all the auth events for *all* of those state events. The optimisation comes from the
observation that we are currently loading all of those auth events into memory at the start of the operation, but
we almost certainly aren't going to need *all* of the auth events. Rather, we can check that we have them, and
leave the actual load into memory for later. (Ideally the federation API would tell us which auth events we're
actually going to need, but it doesn't.)
The effect of this is to reduce the number of events that I need to load for an event in Matrix HQ from about
60000 to about 22000, which means it can stay in my in-memory cache, whereas previously the sheer number
of events meant that all 60K events had to be loaded from db for each request, due to the amount of cache
churn. (NB I've already tripled the size of the cache from its default of 10K).
Unfortunately I've ended up basically C&Ping `_get_state_for_room` and `_get_events_from_store_or_dest` into
a new method, because `_get_state_for_room` is also called during backfill, which expects the auth events to be
returned, so the same tricks don't work. That said, I don't really know why that codepath is completely different
(ultimately we're doing the same thing in setting up a new backwards extremity) so I've left a TODO suggesting
that we clean it up.
Turns out matrix.org has an event that has duplicate auth events (which really isn't supposed to happen, but here we are). This caused the background update to fail due to `UniqueViolation`.
It landed in schema version 58 after 59 had been created, causing some
servers to not run it. The main effect of was that not all rooms had
their chain cover calculated correctly. After the BG updates complete
the chain covers will get fixed when a new state event in the affected
rooms is received.
The idea here is to stop people forgetting to call `check_consistency`. Folks can still just pass in `None` to the new args in `build_sequence_generator`, but hopefully they won't.
This PR remove the cache for the `get_shared_rooms_for_users` storage method (the db method driving the experimental "what rooms do I share with this user?" feature: [MSC2666](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2666)). Currently subsequent requests to the endpoint will return the same result, even if your shared rooms with that user have changed.
The cache was added in https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/7785, but we forgot to ensure it was invalidated appropriately.
Upon attempting to invalidate it, I found that the cache had to be entirely invalidated whenever a user (remote or local) joined or left a room. This didn't make for a very useful cache, especially for a function that may or may not be called very often. Thus, I've opted to remove it instead of invalidating it.
This PR adds a homeserver config option, `user_directory.prefer_local_users`, that when enabled will show local users higher in user directory search results than remote users. This option is off by default.
Note that turning this on doesn't necessarily mean that remote users will always be put below local users, but they should be assuming all other ranking factors (search query match, profile information present etc) are identical.
This is useful for, say, University networks that are openly federating, but want to prioritise local students and staff in the user directory over other random users.

This wasn't picked up by the tests as this is all fine the first time you run Synapse (after upgrading), but then when you restart the wrong value is pulled from `stream_positions`.
We do this by allowing a single iteration to process multiple rooms at a
time, as there are often a lot of really tiny rooms, which can massively
slow things down.
You can't continue using a transaction once an exception has been
raised, so catching and dropping the error here is pointless and just
causes more errors.
GET /_synapse/admin/v1/rooms/<identifier>/forward_extremities now gets forward extremities for a room, returning count and the list of extremities.

It's important that we make sure our background updates happen in a defined
order, to avoid disasters like #6923.
Add an ordering to all of the background updates that have landed since #7190.
This is another PR that grew out of #6739.
The existing code for checking whether a user is currently invited to a room when they want to leave the room looks like the following:
f737368a26/synapse/handlers/room_member.py (L518-L540)
It calls `get_invite_for_local_user_in_room`, which will actually query *all* rooms the user has been invited to, before iterating over them and matching via the room ID. It will then return a tuple of a lot of information which we pull the event ID out of.
I need to do a similar check for knocking, but this code wasn't very efficient. I then tried to write a different implementation using `StateHandler.get_current_state` but this actually didn't work as we haven't *joined* the room yet - we've only been invited to it. That means that only certain tables in Synapse have our desired `invite` membership state. One of those tables is `local_current_membership`.
So I wrote a store method that just queries that table instead
* Make this line debug (it's noisy)
* Don't include from_key for presence if we are at 0
* Limit read receipts for all rooms to 100
* changelog.d/8744.bugfix
* Allow from_key to be None
* Update 8744.bugfix
* The from_key is superflous
* Update comment
There's a handy function called maybe_store_room_on_invite which allows us to create an entry in the rooms table for a room and its version for which we aren't joined to yet, but we can reference when ingesting events about.
This is currently used for invites where we receive some stripped state about the room and pass it down via /sync to the client, without us being in the room yet.
There is a similar requirement for knocking, where we will eventually do the same thing, and need an entry in the rooms table as well. Thus, reusing this function works, however its name needs to be generalised a bit.
Separated out from #6739.
This should hopefully speed up `get_auth_chain_difference` a bit in the case of repeated state res on the same rooms.
`get_auth_chain_difference` does a breadth first walk of the auth graphs by repeatedly looking up events' auth events. Different state resolutions on the same room will end up doing a lot of the same event to auth events lookups, so by caching them we should speed things up in cases of repeated state resolutions on the same room.
We do it this way round so that only the "owner" can delete the access token (i.e. `/logout/all` by the "owner" also deletes that token, but `/logout/all` by the "target user" doesn't).
A future PR will add an API for creating such a token.
When the target user and authenticated entity are different the `Processed request` log line will be logged with a: `{@admin:server as @bob:server} ...`. I'm not convinced by that format (especially since it adds spaces in there, making it harder to use `cut -d ' '` to chop off the start of log lines). Suggestions welcome.
Not being able to serialise `frozendicts` is fragile, and it's annoying to have
to think about which serialiser you want. There's no real downside to
supporting frozendicts, so let's just have one json encoder.
I was trying to make it so that we didn't have to start a background task when handling RDATA, but that is a bigger job (due to all the code in `generic_worker`). However I still think not pulling the event from the DB may help reduce some DB usage due to replication, even if most workers will simply go and pull that event from the DB later anyway.

This is a requirement for [knocking](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/6739), and is abstracting some code that was originally used by the invite flow. I'm separating it out into this PR as it's a fairly contained change.
For a bit of context: when you invite a user to a room, you send them [stripped state events](https://matrix.org/docs/spec/server_server/unstable#put-matrix-federation-v2-invite-roomid-eventid) as part of `invite_room_state`. This is so that their client can display useful information such as the room name and avatar. The same requirement applies to knocking, as it would be nice for clients to be able to display a list of rooms you've knocked on - room name and avatar included.
The reason we're sending membership events down as well is in the case that you are invited to a room that does not have an avatar or name set. In that case, the client should use the displayname/avatar of the inviter. That information is located in the inviter's membership event.
This is optional as knocks don't really have any user in the room to link up to. When you knock on a room, your knock is sent by you and inserted into the room. It wouldn't *really* make sense to show the avatar of a random user - plus it'd be a data leak. So I've opted not to send membership events to the client here. The UX on the client for when you knock on a room without a name/avatar is a separate problem.
In essence this is just moving some inline code to a reusable store method.
Split admin API for reported events in detail und list view.
API was introduced with #8217 in synapse v.1.21.0.
It makes the list (`GET /_synapse/admin/v1/event_reports`) less complex and provides a better overview.
The details can be queried with: `GET /_synapse/admin/v1/event_reports/<report_id>`.
It is similar to room and users API.
It is a kind of regression in `GET /_synapse/admin/v1/event_reports`. `event_json` was removed. But the api was introduced one version before and it is an admin API (not under spec).

Autocommit means that we don't wrap the functions in transactions, and instead get executed directly. Introduced in #8456. This will help:
1. reduce the number of `could not serialize access due to concurrent delete` errors that we see (though there are a few functions that often cause serialization errors that we don't fix here);
2. improve the DB performance, as it no longer needs to deal with the overhead of `REPEATABLE READ` isolation levels; and
3. improve wall clock speed of these functions, as we no longer need to send `BEGIN` and `COMMIT` to the DB.
Some notes about the differences between autocommit mode and our default `REPEATABLE READ` transactions:
1. Currently `autocommit` only applies when using PostgreSQL, and is ignored when using SQLite (due to silliness with [Twisted DB classes](https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/9998)).
2. Autocommit functions may get retried on error, which means they can get applied *twice* (or more) to the DB (since they are not in a transaction the previous call would not get rolled back). This means that the functions need to be idempotent (or otherwise not care about being called multiple times). Read queries, simple deletes, and updates/upserts that replace rows (rather than generating new values from existing rows) are all idempotent.
3. Autocommit functions no longer get executed in [`REPEATABLE READ`](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/transaction-iso.html) isolation level, and so data can change queries, which is fine for single statement queries.
Currently when using multiple event persisters we (in the worst case) don't tell clients about events until all event persisters have persisted new events after the original event. This is a suboptimal, especially if one of the event persisters goes down.
To handle this, we encode the position of each event persister in the room tokens so that we can send events to clients immediately. To reduce the size of the token we do two things:
1. We create a unique immutable persistent mapping between instance names and a generated small integer ID, which we can encode in the tokens instead of the instance name; and
2. We encode the "persisted upto position" of the room token and then only explicitly include instances that have positions strictly greater than that.
The new tokens look something like: `m3478~1.3488~2.3489`, where the first number is the min position, and the subsequent `-` separated pairs are the instance ID to positions map. (We use `.` and `~` as separators as they're URL safe and not already used by `StreamToken`).
There's no need for it to be in the dict as well as the events table. Instead,
we store it in a separate attribute in the EventInternalMetadata object, and
populate that on load.
This means that we can rely on it being correctly populated for any event which
has been persited to the database.
This is so we can tell what is going on when things are taking a while to start up.
The main change here is to ensure that transactions that are created during startup get correctly logged like normal transactions.
The idea is that in future tokens will encode a mapping of instance to position. However, we don't want to include the full instance name in the string representation, so instead we'll have a mapping between instance name and an immutable integer ID in the DB that we can use instead. We'll then do the lookup when we serialize/deserialize the token (we could alternatively pass around an `Instance` type that includes both the name and ID, but that turns out to be a lot more invasive).
This was a bit unweildy for what I wanted: in particular, I wanted to assign
each measurement straight into a bucket, rather than storing an intermediate
Counter which didn't do any bucketing at all.
I've replaced it with something that is hopefully a bit easier to use.
(I'm not entirely sure what the difference between a HistogramMetricFamily and
a GaugeHistogramMetricFamily is, but given our counters can go down as well as
up the latter *sounds* more accurate?)
