If you're installing as a system package, the system package should have set up
the systemd config, so it's more useful to give an example of running in a
virtualenv here.
This implements both a SAML2 metadata endpoint (at
`/_matrix/saml2/metadata.xml`), and a SAML2 response receiver (at
`/_matrix/saml2/authn_response`). If the SAML2 response matches what's been
configured, we complete the SSO login flow by redirecting to the client url
(aka `RelayState` in SAML2 jargon) with a login token.
What we don't yet have is anything to build a SAML2 request and redirect the
user to the identity provider. That is left as an exercise for the reader.
This is mostly factoring out the post-CAS-login code to somewhere we can reuse
it for other SSO flows, but it also fixes the userid mapping while we're at it.
* Rip out half-implemented m.login.saml2 support
This was implemented in an odd way that left most of the work to the client, in
a way that I really didn't understand. It's going to be a pain to maintain, so
let's start by ripping it out.
* drop undocumented dependency on dateutil
It turns out we were relying on dateutil being pulled in transitively by
pysaml2. There's no need for that bloat.
* Add note to UPGRADE.rst about removing riot.im from list of trusted identity servers

* Clean up the CSS for the fallback login form
I was finding this hard to work with, so simplify a bunch of things. Each
flow is now a form inside a div of class login_flow.
The login_flow class now has a fixed width, as that looks much better than each
flow having a differnt width.
* Support m.login.sso
MSC1721 renames m.login.cas to m.login.sso. This implements the change
(retaining support for m.login.cas for older clients).

Clients often reupload their device keys (for some reason) so its
important for the server to check for no-ops before sending out device
list update notifications.
The check is broken in python 3 due to the fact comparing bytes and
unicode always fails, and that we write bytes to the DB but get unicode
when we read.
When we receive events over federation we will need to know the room
version to be able to correctly handle them, e.g. once we start changing
event formats. Currently, we attempt to handle events in unknown rooms.
It seems that, at some point, the ability to run tox on old servers (with old
setuptools) got broken - and it was only working on our Jenkins instance by
dint of reusing the tox environments.
Let's try to get tox to do the right thing, and remove the guff from
jenkins/prepare_synapse.sh.
(There is a separate question about whether the jenkins builds should be using
tox to prepare the virtualenv at all here, but that is somewhat orthogonal).
We currently send several kHz of device list updates over replication
occisonally, which often causes the replications streams to lag and then
get dropped.
A lot of those updates will actually be duplicates, since we don't send
e.g. device_ids across replication, so let's deduplicate it when we pull
them out of the database.
Fixes handling of rooms where we have permission to send the tombstone, but not
other state. We need to (a) fail more gracefully when we can't send the PLs in
the old room, and (b) not set the PLs in the new room until we are done with
the other stuff.
Currently when fetching state groups from the data store we make two
hits two the database: once for members and once for non-members (unless
request is filtered to one or the other). This adds needless load to the
datbase, so this PR refactors the lookup to make only a single database
hit.

Fixes a bug introduced in https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/1783 which
meant that single backslashes were not allowed in event field filters.
The intention here is to allow single-backslashes, but disallow
double-backslashes.
Broadly three things here:
* disable W504 which seems a bit whacko
* remove a bunch of `as e` expressions from exception handlers that don't use
them
* use `r""` for strings which include backslashes
Also, we don't use pep8 any more, so we can get rid of the duplicate config
there.
Wrap calls to deferToThread() in a thing which uses a child logcontext to
attribute CPU usage to the right request.
While we're in the area, remove the logcontext_tracer stuff, which is never
used, and afaik doesn't work.
Fixes#4064
This brings it into line with on_new_notifications and on_new_receipts. It
requires a little bit of hoop-jumping in EmailPusher to load the throttle
params before the first loop.
`on_new_notifications` and `on_new_receipts` in `HttpPusher` and `EmailPusher`
now always return synchronously, so we can remove the `defer.gatherResults` on
their results, and the `run_as_background_process` wrappers can be removed too
because the PusherPool methods will now complete quickly enough.
Each pusher has its own loop which runs for as long as it has work to do. This
should run in its own background thread with its own logcontext, as other
similar loops elsewhere in the system do - which means that CPU usage is
consistently attributed to that loop, rather than to whatever request happened
to start the loop.
As of #4027, we require psutil to be installed, so it should be in our
dependency list. We can also remove some of the conditional import code
introduced by #992.
Fixes#4062.
It's quite important that get_missing_events returns the *latest* events in the
room; however we were pulling event ids out of the database until we got *at
least* 10, and then taking the *earliest* of the results.
We also shouldn't really be relying on depth, and should be checking the
room_id.
move the example email templates into the synapse package so that they can be
used as package data, which should mean that all of the packaging mechanisms
(pip, docker, debian, arch, etc) should now come with the example templates.
In order to grandfather in people who relied on the templates being in the old
place, check for that situation and fall back to using the defaults if the
templates directory does not exist.

- Improve logging: log things in the right order, include destination and txids
in all log lines, don't log successful responses twice
- Fix the docstring on TransportLayerClient.send_transaction
- Don't use treq.request, which is overcomplicated for our purposes: just use a
twisted.web.client.Agent.
- simplify the logic for setting up the bodyProducer
- fix bytes/str confusions
We're better off hashing just the event_id than the whole ((type, state_key),
event_id) tuple - so use a dict instead of a set.
Also, iteritems > items.
Since we don't actually delete the keys, just mark the versions
as deleted in the db rather than actually deleting them, then we
won't reuse versions.
Fixes https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/7448
If a looping call function errors, then it kills the loop entirely.
Currently it throws away the exception logs, so we should make it
actually log them.
Fixes#3929
If a connection is lost before a request is read from Request, Twisted
sets `method` (and `uri`) attributes to dummy values. These dummy values
have incorrect types (i.e. they're not bytes), and so things like
`__repr__` would raise an exception.
To fix this we had a helper method to return the method with a
consistent type.
In particular, we assume that the name and canonical alias events in
the state have not been rejected. In practice this may not be the case
(though we should probably think about fixing that) so lets ensure that
we gracefully handle that case, rather than 404'ing the sync request
like we do now.
This test didn't do what it claimed to do, and what it claimed to do was the
same as test_cant_hide_direct_ancestors anyway.
This stuff is tested by sytest anyway.
Latest is horrible and makes debugging what has happened anywhere a
nightmare. We push a latest because of demand for it, but we'll also
push a SHA1 commit id so those wanting to know what they're running
(and be able to roll back if required) can use those instead.
Note that latest here is defined as "most recent master commit" not
"most recent released version", as the actual semantics of making latest
correct while still being able to build bugfixed releases of previous
versions is just ARGH. So we define it as "master" not "latest release".
If we have a forward extremity for a room as `E`, and you receive `A`, `B`,
s.t. `A -> B -> E`, and `B` also points to an unknown event `X`, then we need
to do state res between `X` and `E`.
When that happens, we need to make sure we include `X` in the state that goes
into the state res alg.
Fixes#3934.
If we've fetched state events from remote servers in order to resolve the state
for a new event, we need to actually pass those events into
resolve_events_with_factory (so that it can do the state res) and then persist
the ones we need - otherwise other bits of the codebase get confused about why
we have state groups pointing to non-existent events.
get_state_groups returns a map from state_group_id to a list of FrozenEvents,
so was very much the wrong thing to be putting as one of the entries in the
list passed to resolve_events_with_factory (which expects maps from
(event_type, state_key) to event id).
We actually want get_state_groups_ids().values() rather than
get_state_groups().
This fixes the main problem in #3923, but there are other problems with this
bit of code which get discovered once you do so.
* add some comments on things that look a bit bogus
* rename this `state` variable to avoid confusion with the `state` used
elsewhere in this function. (There was no actual conflict, but it was
a confusing bit of spaghetti.)
when processing incoming transactions, it can be hard to see what's going on,
because we process a bunch of stuff in parallel, and because we may end up
recursively working our way through a chain of three or four events.
This commit creates a way to use logcontexts to add the relevant event ids to
the log lines.
This ensures that its resource usage metrics get recorded somewhere rather than
getting lost.
(It also fixes an error when called from a nested logging context which
completes before the bg process)
There's really no point in checking for destinations called "localhost" because
there is nothing stopping people creating other DNS entries which point to
127.0.0.1. The right fix for this is
https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/3953.
Blocking localhost, on the other hand, means that you get a surprise when
trying to connect a test server on localhost to an existing server (with a
'normal' server_name).
When we were authorizing an event, if there was no `m.room.create` in its
auth_events, we would raise a SynapseError with a cryptic message, which then
meant that we would bail out of processing any incoming events, rather than
storing a rejection for the faulty event and moving on.
We should treat the absent event the same as any other auth failure, by
raising an AuthError, so that the event is marked as rejected.
It used to try and produce an estimate, which was sometimes negative.
This caused metrics to be sad, so lets always just calculate it from
scratch.
(This appears to have been a longstanding bug, but one which has been made more
of a problem by #3932 and #3933).
(This was originally done by Erik as part of #3933. I'm cherry-picking it
because really it's a fix in its own right)
Synapse doesn’t allow for media resources to be played directly from
Chrome. It is a problem for users on other networks (e.g. IRC)
communicating with Matrix users through a gateway. The gateway sends
them the raw URL for the resource when a Matrix user uploads a video
and the video cannot be played directly in Chrome using that URL.
Chrome argues it is not authorized to play the video because of the
Content Security Policy. Chrome checks for the "media-src" policy which
is missing, and defauts to the "default-src" policy which is "none".
As Synapse already sends "object-src: 'self'" I thought it wouldn’t be
a problem to add "media-src: 'self'" to the CSP to fix this problem.
symlinks apparently break setuptools on python3 and alpine
(https://bugs.python.org/issue31940), so let's stop using a symlink and just
use the file directly.
Given we have disabled lazy loading for incr syncs in #3840, we can make self-LL more efficient by only doing it on initial sync. Also adds a bounds check for if/when we change our mind, so that we don't try to include LL members on sync responses with no timeline.
Older Twisted (18.4.0) returns TimeoutError instead of
ConnectingCancelledError when connection times out.
This change allows tests to be compatible with this behaviour.

ExpiringCache required that `start()` be called before it would actually
start expiring entries. A number of places didn't do that.
This PR removes `start` from ExpiringCache, and automatically starts
backround reaping process on creation instead.
If a HTTP handler throws an exception while processing a request we
automatically write a JSON error response. If the handler had already
started writing a response twisted throws an exception.
We should check for this case and simple abort the connection if there
was an error after the response had started being written.
Add some informative comments about what's going on here.
Also, `sent_to_us_directly` and `get_missing` were doing the same thing (apart
from in `_handle_queued_pdus`, which looks like a bug), so let's get rid of
`get_missing` and use `sent_to_us_directly` consistently.
Let's try to rationalise the logging that happens when we are processing an
incoming transaction, to make it easier to figure out what is going wrong when
they take ages. In particular:
- make everything start with a [room_id event_id] prefix
- make sure we log a warning when catching exceptions rather than just turning
them into other, more cryptic, exceptions.
Currently we rely on the master to invalidate this cache promptly.
However, after having moved most federation endpoints off of master this
no longer happens, causing outbound fedeariont to get blackholed.
Fixes#3798
The existing deferred timeout helper function (and the one into twisted)
suffer from a bug when a deferred's canceller throws an exception, #3842.
The new helper function doesn't suffer from this problem.
We want to wait until we have read the response body before we log the request
as complete, otherwise a confusing thing happens where the request appears to
have completed, but we later fail it.
To do this, we factor the salient details of a request out to a separate
object, which can then keep track of the txn_id, so that it can be logged.
The problem with this script is that it is largely untested, entirely
unmaintained, and running it is likely to make your synapse blow up in
exciting ways.
For example, it leaves a bunch of tables with dead values in it, like
event_to_state_groups.
Having it here sends a message that it is a supported part of
synapse, which is absolutely not the case.
don't filter membership events based on history visibility
as we will already have filtered the messages in the timeline, and state events
are always visible.

This just fixed the errcode on /room_keys/version if no backup and
updates the schema delta to be on the latest so it gets run
If we receive an event that doesn't pass their content hash check (e.g.
due to already being redacted) then we hit a bug which causes an
exception to be raised, which then promplty stops the event (and
request) from being processed.
This effects all sorts of federation APIs, including joining rooms with
a redacted state event.
* speed up room summaries by pulling their data from room_memberships rather than room state
* disable LL for incr syncs, and log incr sync stats (#3840)
When a user joined a room any existing tags were not sent down the sync
stream. Ordinarily this isn't a problem because the user needs to be in
the room to have set tags in it, however synapse will sometimes add tags
for a user to a room, e.g. for server notices, which need to come down
sync.
We should check that both the sender's server, and the server which created the
event_id (which may be different from whatever the remote server has told us
the origin is), have signed the event.
Fetching the list of all new typing notifications involved iterating
over all rooms and comparing their serial. Lets move to using a stream
change cache, like we do for other streams.

Synapse 0.33.7 (2018-10-18)
===========================
**Warning**: This release removes the example email notification templates from
`res/templates` (they are now internal to the python package). This should only
affect you if you (a) deploy your Synapse instance from a git checkout or a
github snapshot URL, and (b) have email notifications enabled.
If you have email notifications enabled, you should ensure that
`email.template_dir` is either configured to point at a directory where you
have installed customised templates, or leave it unset to use the default
templates.
Synapse 0.33.7rc2 (2018-10-17)
==============================
Features
--------
- Ship the example email templates as part of the package ([\#4052](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/4052))
Bugfixes
--------
- Fix bug which made get_missing_events return too few events ([\#4045](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/4045))
Synapse 0.33.7rc1 (2018-10-15)
==============================

Troubleshooting Running

If synapse fails with ``missing "sodium.h"`` crypto errors, you may need
to manually upgrade PyNaCL, as synapse uses NaCl (https://nacl.cr.yp.to/) for
encryption and digital signatures.
Unfortunately PyNACL currently has a few issues
(https://github.com/pyca/pynacl/issues/53) and
(https://github.com/pyca/pynacl/issues/79) that mean it may not install
correctly, causing all tests to fail with errors about missing "sodium.h". To
