2020-07-28Typing worker needs to handle stream update requests (#7967)Erik Johnston2-1/+2
IIRC this doesn't break tests because its only hit on reconnection, or something. Basically, when a process needs to fetch missing updates for the `typing` stream it needs to query the writer instance via HTTP (as we don't write typing notifications to the DB), the problem was that the endpoint (`streams`) was only registered on master and specifically not on the typing writer worker.
2020-07-27Handle replication commands synchronously where possible (#7876)Richard van der Hoff5-86/+113
Most of the stuff we do for replication commands can be done synchronously. There's no point spinning up background processes if we're not going to need them.

2020-07-27Fix typing replication not being handled on master (#7959)Erik Johnston4-7/+12
Handling of incoming typing stream updates from replication was not hooked up on master, effecting set ups where typing was handled on a different worker. This is really only a problem if the master process is also handling sync requests, which is unlikely for those that are at the stage of moving typing off. The other observable effect is that if a worker restarts or a replication connect drops then the typing worker will issue a `POSITION typing`, triggering master process to try and stream *all* typing updates from position 0. Fixes #7907

2020-07-23Put a cache on `/state_ids` (#7931)Richard van der Hoff2-2/+12
If we send out an event which refers to `prev_events` which other servers in the federation are missing, then (after a round or two of backfill attempts), they will end up asking us for `/state_ids` at a particular point in the DAG. As per https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/7893, this is quite expensive, and we tend to see lots of very similar requests around the same time. We can therefore handle this much more efficiently by using a cache, which (a) ensures that if we see the same request from multiple servers (or even the same server, multiple times), then they share the result, and (b) any other servers that miss the initial excitement can also benefit from the work. [It's interesting to note that `/state` has a cache for exactly this reason. `/state` is now essentially unused and replaced with `/state_ids`, but evidently when we replaced it we forgot to add a cache to the new endpoint.]
2020-07-23Abort federation requests if the client disconnects early (#7930)Richard van der Hoff2-0/+7
For inbound federation requests, if a given remote server makes too many requests at once, we start stacking them up rather than processing them immediatedly. However, that means that there is a fair chance that the requesting server will disconnect before we start processing the request. In that case, if it was a read-only request (ie, a GET request), there is absolutely no point in building a response (and some requests are quite expensive to handle). Even in the case of a POST request, one of two things will happen: * Most likely, the requesting server will retry the request and we'll get the information anyway. * Even if it doesn't, the requesting server has to assume that we didn't get the memo, and act accordingly. In short, we're better off aborting the request at this point rather than ploughing on with what might be a quite expensive request.

2020-07-20Change sample config's postgres user to synapse_user (#7889)Andrew Morgan3-2/+3
The [postgres setup docs](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/postgres.md#set-up-database) recommend setting up your database with user `synapse_user`. However, uncommenting the postgres defaults in the sample config leave you with user `synapse`. This PR switches the sample config to recommend `synapse_user`. Took a me a second to figure this out, so assume this will beneficial to others.

2020-07-17Switch to Debian:Slim from Alpine for the docker image (#7839)Christopher May-Townsend3-40/+30
As mentioned in #7397, switching to a debian base should help with multi-arch work to save time on compiling. This is unashamedly based on #6373, but without the extra functionality. Switch python version back to generic 3.7 to always pull the latest. Essentially, keeping this as small as possible. The image is bigger though unfortunately.
2020-07-17Stop using 'device_max_stream_id' (#7882)Erik Johnston4-5/+3
It serves no purpose and updating everytime we write to the device inbox stream means all such transactions will conflict, causing lots of transaction failures and retries.

2020-07-16Optimise queueing of inbound replication commands (#7861)Richard van der Hoff2-116/+216
When we get behind on replication, we tend to stack up background processes behind a linearizer. Bg processes are heavy (particularly with respect to prometheus metrics) and linearizers aren't terribly efficient once the queue gets long either. A better approach is to maintain a queue of requests to be processed, and nominate a single process to work its way through the queue. Fixes: #7444
2020-07-16Reject attempts to join empty rooms over federation (#7859)Richard van der Hoff2-2/+14
We shouldn't allow others to make_join through us if we've left the room; reject such attempts with a 404. Fixes #7835. Fixes #6958.
