([\#11617](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11617)) +- Improve the generated URL previews for some web pages. Contributed by @AndrewRyanChama. ([\#11985](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11985)) +- Track cache invalidations in Prometheus metrics, as already happens for cache eviction based on size or time. ([\#12000](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12000)) +- Implement experimental support for [MSC3720](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/3720) (account status endpoints). ([\#12001](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12001), [\#12067](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12067)) +- Enable modules to set a custom display name when registering a user. ([\#12009](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12009)) +- Advertise Matrix 1.1 and 1.2 support on `/_matrix/client/versions`. ([\#12020](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12020), ([\#12022](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12022)) +- Support only the stable identifier for [MSC3069](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/3069)'s `is_guest` on `/_matrix/client/v3/account/whoami`. ([\#12021](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12021)) +- Use room version 9 as the default room version (per [MSC3589](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/3589)). ([\#12058](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12058)) +- Add module callbacks to react to user deactivation status changes (i.e. deactivations and reactivations) and profile updates. ([\#12062](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12062)) + + +Bugfixes +-------- + +- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.48.0 where an edit of the latest event in a thread would not be properly applied to the thread summary. ([\#11992](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11992)) +- Fix long-standing bug where the `get_rooms_for_user` cache was not correctly invalidated for remote users when the server left a room. ([\#11999](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11999)) +- Fix a 500 error with Postgres when looking backwards with the [MSC3030](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/3030) `/timestamp_to_event?dir=b` endpoint. ([\#12024](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12024)) +- Properly fix a long-standing bug where wrong data could be inserted into the `event_search` table when using SQLite. This could block running `synapse_port_db` with an `argument of type 'int' is not iterable` error. This bug was partially fixed by a change in Synapse 1.44.0. ([\#12037](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12037)) +- Fix slow performance of `/logout` in some cases where refresh tokens are in use. The slowness existed since the initial implementation of refresh tokens in version 1.38.0. ([\#12056](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12056)) +- Fix a long-standing bug where Synapse would make additional failing requests over federation for missing data.

([\#12089](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12089)) +- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.51.0 where incoming federation transactions containing at least one EDU would be dropped if debug logging was enabled for `synapse.8631_debug`. ([\#12098](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12098)) +- Fix a long-standing bug which could cause push notifications to malfunction if `use_frozen_dicts` was set in the configuration. ([\#12100](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12100)) +- Fix an extremely rare, long-standing bug in `ReadWriteLock` that would cause an error when a newly unblocked writer completes instantly. ([\#12105](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12105)) +- Make a `POST` to `/rooms/<room_id>/receipt/m.read/<event_id>` only trigger a push notification if the count of unread messages is different to the one in the last successfully sent push. This reduces server load and load on the receiving device. ([\#11835](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11835)) + + +Updates to the Docker image +--------------------------- + +- The Docker image no longer automatically creates a temporary volume at `/data`. This is not expected to affect normal usage. ([\#11997](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11997)) +- Use Python 3.9 in Docker images by default. ([\#12112](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12112)) + + +Improved Documentation +---------------------- + +- Document support for the `to_device`, `account_data`, `receipts`, and `presence` stream writers for workers.

([\#11865](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11865)) +- Remove support for the legacy structured logging configuration (please see the the [upgrade notes](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/develop/upgrade#legacy-structured-logging-configuration-removal) if you are using `structured: true` in the Synapse configuration). ([\#12008](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12008)) +- Drop support for [MSC3283](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/3283) unstable flags now that the stable flags are supported. ([\#12018](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12018)) +- Remove the unstable `/spaces` endpoint from [MSC2946](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2946). ([\#12073](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12073)) + + +Internal Changes +---------------- + +- Make the `get_room_version` method use `get_room_version_id` to benefit from caching. ([\#11808](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11808)) +- Remove unnecessary condition on knock -> leave auth rule check. ([\#11900](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11900)) +- Add tests for device list changes between local users. ([\#11972](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11972)) +- Optimise calculating `device_list` changes in `/sync`.

([\#11991](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11991)) +- Move common deduplication code down into `_auth_and_persist_outliers`. ([\#11994](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11994)) +- Limit concurrent joins from applications services. ([\#11996](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11996)) +- Preparation for faster-room-join work: when parsing the `send_join` response, get the `m.room.create` event from `state`, not `auth_chain`. ([\#12005](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12005), [\#12039](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12039)) +- Preparation for faster-room-join work: parse MSC3706 fields in send_join response.

([\#12016](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12016)) +- Use Matrix v1.1 endpoints (`/_matrix/client/v3/auth/...`) in fallback auth HTML forms. ([\#12019](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12019)) +- Update the `olddeps` CI job to use an old version of `markupsafe`. ([\#12025](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12025)) +- Upgrade Mypy to version 0.931. ([\#12030](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12030)) +- Remove legacy `HomeServer.get_datastore()`.
