* add some comments on things that look a bit bogus
* rename this `state` variable to avoid confusion with the `state` used
elsewhere in this function. (There was no actual conflict, but it was
a confusing bit of spaghetti.)
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.
This ensures that its resource usage metrics get recorded somewhere rather than
getting lost.
(It also fixes an error when called from a nested logging context which
completes before the bg process)
There's really no point in checking for destinations called "localhost" because
there is nothing stopping people creating other DNS entries which point to
127.0.0.1. The right fix for this is
https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/3953.
Blocking localhost, on the other hand, means that you get a surprise when
trying to connect a test server on localhost to an existing server (with a
'normal' server_name).
When we were authorizing an event, if there was no `m.room.create` in its
auth_events, we would raise a SynapseError with a cryptic message, which then
meant that we would bail out of processing any incoming events, rather than
storing a rejection for the faulty event and moving on.
We should treat the absent event the same as any other auth failure, by
raising an AuthError, so that the event is marked as rejected.
It used to try and produce an estimate, which was sometimes negative.
This caused metrics to be sad, so lets always just calculate it from
scratch.
(This appears to have been a longstanding bug, but one which has been made more
of a problem by #3932 and #3933).
(This was originally done by Erik as part of #3933. I'm cherry-picking it
because really it's a fix in its own right)
Synapse doesn’t allow for media resources to be played directly from
Chrome. It is a problem for users on other networks (e.g. IRC)
communicating with Matrix users through a gateway. The gateway sends
them the raw URL for the resource when a Matrix user uploads a video
and the video cannot be played directly in Chrome using that URL.
Chrome argues it is not authorized to play the video because of the
Content Security Policy. Chrome checks for the "media-src" policy which
is missing, and defauts to the "default-src" policy which is "none".
As Synapse already sends "object-src: 'self'" I thought it wouldn’t be
a problem to add "media-src: 'self'" to the CSP to fix this problem.
symlinks apparently break setuptools on python3 and alpine
(https://bugs.python.org/issue31940), so let's stop using a symlink and just
use the file directly.
Given we have disabled lazy loading for incr syncs in #3840, we can make self-LL more efficient by only doing it on initial sync. Also adds a bounds check for if/when we change our mind, so that we don't try to include LL members on sync responses with no timeline.
Older Twisted (18.4.0) returns TimeoutError instead of
ConnectingCancelledError when connection times out.
This change allows tests to be compatible with this behaviour.
