From 158782c3ce1eb92e98df50645b03afcab4f22db0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sean Quah <8349537+squahtx@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Fri, 22 Jul 2022 10:13:01 +0100 Subject: Skip soft fail checks for rooms with partial state (#13354) When a room has the partial state flag, we may not have an accurate `m.room.member` event for event senders in the room's current state, and so cannot perform soft fail checks correctly. Skip the soft fail check entirely in this case. As an alternative, we could block until we have full state, but that would prevent us from receiving incoming events over federation, which is undesirable.
