commit335ebb21ccc0ae906169f21dcfc456c869bdd301 (patch)

parentRemove unused argument for get_relations_for_event. (#13383) (diff)
downloadsynapse-335ebb21ccc0ae906169f21dcfc456c869bdd301.tar.xz
Faster room joins: avoid blocking when pulling events with missing prevs (#13355)
Avoid blocking on full state in `_resolve_state_at_missing_prevs` and
return a new flag indicating whether the resolved state is partial.
Thread that flag around so that it makes it into the event context.
