From 1c802de626de3293049206cb788af15cbc8ea17f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Eastwood Date: Tue, 18 Jul 2023 03:49:21 -0500 Subject: Re-introduce the outbound federation proxy (#15913) Allow configuring the set of workers to proxy outbound federation traffic through (`outbound_federation_restricted_to`). This is useful when you have a worker setup with `federation_sender` instances responsible for sending outbound federation requests and want to make sure *all* outbound federation traffic goes through those instances. Before this change, the generic workers would still contact federation themselves for things like profile lookups, backfill, etc. This PR allows you to set more strict access controls/firewall for all workers and only allow the `federation_sender`'s to contact the outside world. --- synapse/http/client.py | 7 ++++++- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'synapse/http/client.py') diff --git a/synapse/http/client.py b/synapse/http/client.py index 09ea93e10d..ca2cdbc6e2 100644 --- a/synapse/http/client.py +++ b/synapse/http/client.py @@ -1037,7 +1037,12 @@ class _ReadBodyWithMaxSizeProtocol(protocol.Protocol): if reason.check(ResponseDone): self.deferred.callback(self.length) elif reason.check(PotentialDataLoss): - # stolen from https://github.com/twisted/treq/pull/49/files + # This applies to requests which don't set `Content-Length` or a + # `Transfer-Encoding` in the response because in this case the end of the + # response is indicated by the connection being closed, an event which may + # also be due to a transient network problem or other error.
