From 1531b214fc57714c14046a8f66c7b5fe5ec5dcdd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Erik Johnston Date: Fri, 22 May 2020 14:21:54 +0100 Subject: Add ability to wait for replication streams (#7542) The idea here is that if an instance persists an event via the replication HTTP API it can return before we receive that event over replication, which can lead to races where code assumes that persisting an event immediately updates various caches (e.g. current state of the room). Most of Synapse doesn't hit such races, so we don't do the waiting automagically, instead we do so where necessary to avoid unnecessary delays. We may decide to change our minds here if it turns out there are a lot of subtle races going on. People probably want to look at this commit by commit. --- synapse/replication/tcp/client.py | 90 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 88 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'synapse/replication/tcp/client.py') diff --git a/synapse/replication/tcp/client.py b/synapse/replication/tcp/client.py index 28826302f5..508ad1b720 100644 --- a/synapse/replication/tcp/client.py +++ b/synapse/replication/tcp/client.py @@ -14,19 +14,23 @@ # limitations under the License.
