* Update worker docs to remove group endpoints.
* Removes an unused parameter to `ApplicationService`.
* Break dependency between media repo and groups.
* Avoid copying `m.room.related_groups` state events during room upgrades.
Currently, we try to pull the event corresponding to a sync token from the database. However, when
we fetch redaction events, we check the target of that redaction (because we aren't allowed to send
redactions to clients without validating them). So, if the sync token points to a redaction of an event
that we don't have, we have a problem.
It turns out we don't really need that event, and can just work with its ID and metadata, which
sidesteps the whole problem.
* Raise a dedicated `InvalidEventSignatureError` from `_check_sigs_on_pdu`
* Downgrade logging about redactions to DEBUG
this can be very spammy during a room join, and it's not very useful.
* Raise `InvalidEventSignatureError` from `_check_sigs_and_hash`
... and, more importantly, move the logging out to the callers.

Synapse 1.60.0rc2 (2022-05-27)
==============================
This release of Synapse adds a unique index to the `state_group_edges` table, in
order to prevent accidentally introducing duplicate information (for example,
because a database backup was restored multiple times). If your Synapse database
already has duplicate rows in this table, this could fail with an error and
require manual remediation.
Additionally, the signature of the `check_event_for_spam` module callback has changed.
The previous signature has been deprecated and remains working for now. Module authors
should update their modules to use the new signature where possible.
See [the upgrade notes](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/upgrade.md#upgrading-to-v1600)
for more details.
Features
--------
- Add an option allowing users to use their password to reauthenticate for privileged actions even though password login is disabled. ([\#12883](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12883))
Bugfixes
--------
- Explicitly close `ijson` coroutines once we are done with them, instead of leaving the garbage collector to close them. ([\#12875](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12875))
Internal Changes
----------------
- Improve URL previews by not including the content of media tags in the generated description. ([\#12887](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12887))
Hopefully this means that exceptions raised due to truncated JSON
get a sensible logging context and stack.

* Fix room deletion
ae7858f broke room deletion by attempting to delete the entry from `rooms`
before the tables that reference it.
* faster_joins: remove database rows on purge
* Refactor HTTP response size limits
Rather than passing a separate `max_response_size` down the stack, make it an
attribute of the `parser`.
* Allow bigger responses on `federation/v1/state`
`/state` can return huge responses, so we need to handle that.
Makes it so that groups/communities no longer exist from a user-POV. E.g. we remove:
* All API endpoints (including Client-Server, Server-Server, and admin).
* Documented configuration options (and the experimental flag, which is now unused).
* Special handling during room upgrades.
* The `groups` section of the `/sync` response.
By always returning all requested values from the function
wrapped by cachedList. Otherwise implicit None values get
added into the cache, which are unexpected.
Implements the following behind an experimental configuration flag:
* A new push rule kind for mutually related events.
* A new default push rule (`.m.rule.thread_reply`) under an unstable prefix.
This is missing part of MSC3772:
* The `.m.rule.thread_reply_to_me` push rule, this depends on MSC3664 / #11804.
The main differences are:
- values with delimiters (such as colons) should be quoted, so always
quote the origin, since it could contain a colon followed by a port
number
- should allow more than one space after "X-Matrix"
- quoted values with backslash-escaped characters should be unescaped
- names should be case insensitive
A minor optimization to avoid unnecessary copying/building
identical dictionaries when filtering private read receipts.
Also clarifies comments and cleans-up some tests.
Parse the `m.relates_to` event content field (which describes relations)
in a single place, this is used during:
* Event persistence.
* Validation of the Client-Server API.
* Fetching bundled aggregations.
* Processing of push rules.
Each of these separately implement the logic and each made slightly
different assumptions about what was valid. Some had minor / potential
bugs.

While `ReplicationEndpoint`s register themselves via `JsonResource`,
they pass a method that calls the handler, instead of the handler itself,
to `register_paths`. As a result, `JsonResource` will not correctly pick
up the `@cancellable` flag and we have to apply it ourselves.
Signed-off-by: Sean Quah <seanq@element.io>
Both `RestServlet`s and `BaseFederationServlet`s register their handlers
with `HttpServer.register_paths` / `JsonResource.register_paths`. Update
`JsonResource` to respect the `@cancellable` flag on handlers registered
in this way.
Although `ReplicationEndpoint` also registers itself using
`register_paths`, it does not pass the handler method that would have the
`@cancellable` flag directly, and so needs separate handling.

`DirectServeHtmlResource` and `DirectServeJsonResource` both inherit
from `_AsyncResource`. These classes expect to be subclassed with
`_async_render_*` methods.
This commit has no effect on `JsonResource`, despite inheriting from
`_AsyncResource`. `JsonResource` has its own `_async_render` override
which will need to be updated separately.

Refactor how the `EventContext` class works, with the intention of reducing the amount of state we fetch from the DB during event processing.
The idea here is to get rid of the cached `current_state_ids` and `prev_state_ids` that live in the `EventContext`, and instead defer straight to the database (and its caching).
One change that may have a noticeable effect is that we now no longer prefill the `get_current_state_ids` cache on a state change. However, that query is relatively light, since its just a case of reading a table from the DB (unlike fetching state at an event which is more heavyweight). For deployments with workers this cache isn't even used.
Part of #12684
All async request processing goes through `_AsyncResource`, so this is
the only place where a `Deferred` needs to be captured for cancellation.
Unfortunately, the same isn't true for determining whether a request
can be cancelled. Each of `RestServlet`, `BaseFederationServlet`,
`DirectServe{Html,Json}Resource` and `ReplicationEndpoint` have
different wrappers around the method doing the request handling and they
all need to be handled separately.

* Move `_condition_checker` into `PushRuleEvaluatorForEvent`.
* Move the condition cache into `PushRuleEvaluatorForEvent`.
* Improve docstrings.
* Inline a method which is only called once.
There's no guarantee that module callbacks will handle cancellation
appropriately. Protect module callbacks with read semantics from
cancellation and avoid swallowing `CancelledError`s that arise.
Other module callbacks, such as the `on_*` callbacks, are presumed to
live on code paths that involve writes and aren't cancellation-friendly.
These module callbacks have been left alone.

Undoes a change I made in #12381. I can't fully remember my reasoning,
but this changed the contents of the debian packages in a backwards
incompatible way. We're not aware of anyone who's been bitten by this,
but we still want to fix it.
To the reviewer: please be convinced that the debian packages will still
contain pympler after this change.

Fixes a regression from 8b309adb43 (#11660)

themselves were an edit or an annotation could have bundled aggregations calculated,
which is not allowed.

getClientIP was deprecated in Twisted 18.4.0, which also added
getClientAddress. The Synapse minimum version for Twisted is
currently 18.9.0, so all supported versions have the new API.
* Changes hidden read receipts to be a separate receipt type
(instead of a field on `m.read`).
* Updates the `/receipts` endpoint to accept `m.fully_read`.
* `m.login.jwt`, which was never specced and has been deprecated
since Synapse 1.16.0. (`org.matrix.login.jwt` can be used instead.)
* `uk.half-shot.msc2778.login.application_service`, which was
stabilized as part of the Matrix spec v1.2 release.
The `latest_event` field of the bundled aggregations for `m.thread` relations
did not include bundled aggregations itself. This resulted in clients needing to
immediately request the event from the server (and thus making it useless that
the latest event itself was serialized instead of just including an event ID).
I've seen a few errors which can only plausibly be explained by the calculated
event id for an event being different from the ID of the event in the
database. It should be cheap to check this, so let's do so and raise an
exception.
Check we're on the right branch before tagging, and on the right tag before uploading
* Abort if we're on the wrong branch
* Check we have the right tag checked out
* Clarify that `publish` only releases to GitHub
This works by taking a row level lock on the `rooms` table at the start of both transactions, ensuring that they don't run at the same time. In the event persistence transaction we also check that there is an entry still in the `rooms` table.
I can't figure out how to do this in SQLite. I was just going to lock the table, but it seems that we don't support that in SQLite either, so I'm *really* confused as to how we maintain integrity in SQLite when using `lock_table`....
This was originally added when we first added a `MemoryHandler` to the default
log config back in https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/8040, to ensure
that we didn't explode with an infinite loop if there was an error formatting
the logs.
Since then, we made additional improvements to logging which make this
workaround redundant. In particular:
* we no longer attempt to log un-UTF8-decodable byte sequences, which were the
most likely cause of an error in the first place.
* https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/8268 ensures that in the unlikely
case that there *is* an error, it won't cause an infinite loop.
* Allow unused ignores in "bleeding edge" CI
Where "bleeding edge" means the Twisted Trunk and Latest Deps jobs.
Follow up from #12531.
Resolves#12574.
* Use `--extras all` in latest deps mypy CI
Twisted trunk job already does this.
Missed in #12531.

When configuring the return values of mocks, prefer awaitables from
`make_awaitable` over `defer.succeed`. `Deferred`s are only awaitable
once, so it is inappropriate for a mock to return the same `Deferred`
multiple times.
Also update `run_in_background` to support functions that return
arbitrary awaitables.
Signed-off-by: Sean Quah <seanq@element.io>
Over time we've begun to use newer versions of mypy, typeshed, stub
packages---and of course we've improved our own annotations. This makes
some type ignore comments no longer necessary. I have removed them.
There was one exception: a module that imports `select.epoll`. The
ignore is redundant on Linux, but I've kept it ignored for those of us
who work on the source tree using not-Linux. (#11771)
I'm more interested in the config line which enforces this. I want
unused ignores to be reported, because I think it's useful feedback when
annotating to know when you've fixed a problem you had to previously
ignore.
* Installing extras before typechecking
Lacking an easy way to install all extras generically, let's bite the bullet and
make install the hand-maintained `all` extra before typechecking.
Now that https://github.com/matrix-org/backend-meta/pull/6 is merged to
the release/v1 branch.
Synapse 1.58.0rc2 (2022-04-26)
==============================
This release candidate fixes bugs related to Synapse 1.58.0rc1's logic for handling device list updates.
Bugfixes
--------
- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.58.0rc1 where the main process could consume excessive amounts of CPU and memory while handling sentry logging failures. ([\#12554](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12554))
- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.58.0rc1 where opentracing contexts were not correctly sent to whitelisted remote servers with device lists updates. ([\#12555](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12555))
Internal Changes
----------------
- Reduce unnecessary work when handling remote device list updates. ([\#12557](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12557))
Try to avoid an OOM by checking fewer extremities.
Generally this is a big rewrite of _maybe_backfill, to try and fix some of the TODOs and other problems in it. It's best reviewed commit-by-commit.
Multiple calls to `EventsWorkerStore._get_events_from_cache_or_db` can
reuse the same database fetch, which is initiated by the first call.
Ensure that cancelling the first call doesn't cancel the other calls
sharing the same database fetch.

This will mainly be useful when dealing with module callbacks, which are
all typed as returning `Awaitable`s instead of coroutines or
`Deferred`s.
Signed-off-by: Sean Quah <seanq@element.io>
When we join a room via the faster-joins mechanism, we end up with "partial
state" at some points on the event DAG. Many parts of the codebase need to
wait for the full state to load. So, we implement a mechanism to keep track of
which events have partial state, and wait for them to be fully-populated.
This release of Synapse adds a unique index to the `state_group_edges` table, in
order to prevent accidentally introducing duplicate information (for example,
because a database backup was restored multiple times). If your Synapse database
already has duplicate rows in this table, this could fail with an error and
require manual remediation.
Additionally, the signature of the `check_event_for_spam` module callback has changed.
The previous signature has been deprecated and remains working for now. Module authors
should update their modules to use the new signature where possible.

- Update to the `check_event_for_spam` module callback. Deprecate the current callback signature, replace it with a new signature that is both less ambiguous (replacing booleans with explicit allow/block) and more powerful (ability to return explicit error codes). ([\#12808](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12808))

- Require a body in POST requests to `/rooms/{roomId}/receipt/{receiptType}/{eventId}`, as required by the [Matrix specification](https://spec.matrix.org/v1.2/client-server-api/#post_matrixclientv3roomsroomidreceiptreceipttypeeventid). This breaks compatibility with Element Android 1.2.0 and earlier: users of those clients will be unable to send read receipts. ([\#12709](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12709))

Synapse 1.59.0 (2022-05-17)
===========================
Synapse 1.59 makes several changes that server administrators should be aware of:
- Device name lookup over federation is now disabled by default. ([\#12616](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12616))
- The `synapse.app.appservice` and `synapse.app.user_dir` worker application types are now deprecated. ([\#12452](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12452), [\#12654](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12654))

Synapse 1.58.1 (2022-05-05)
===========================
This patch release includes a fix to the Debian packages, installing the
`systemd` and `cache_memory` extra package groups, which were incorrectly
omitted in v1.58.0. This primarily prevented Synapse from starting
when the `systemd.journal.JournalHandler` log handler was configured.

===========================
This is a patch release that only affects the Docker image. It is only of interest to administrators using [the LDAP module][LDAPModule] to authenticate their users.
If you have already upgraded to Synapse 1.57.0 without problem, then you have no need to upgrade to this patch release.
- Include version 0.2.0 of the Synapse LDAP Auth Provider module in the Docker image. This matches the version that was present in the Docker image for Synapse v1.56.0. ([\#12512](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12512))
Update documentation to reflect that both the `run_background_tasks_on` option and the options for moving stream writers off of the main process are no longer experimental.
Fix a long-standing bug which incorrectly caused `GET /_matrix/client/r3/rooms/{roomId}/event/{eventId}` to return edited events rather than the original.
Fix bug where the admin API for [deleting forward extremities](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/erikj/fix_delete_event_response_count/docs/admin_api/rooms.md#deleting-forward-extremities) would always return a count of 1 no matter how many extremities were deleted. Broke in v1.27.0.
Always send an `access_token` in `/thirdparty/` requests to appservices, as required by the [Matrix specification](https://spec.matrix.org/v1.1/application-service-api/#third-party-networks).
Implement [MSC3816](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/3816): sending the root event in a thread should count as "participated" in it.
Fix an issue introduced in Synapse 0.34 where the `/notifications` endpoint would only return notifications if a user registered at least one pusher. Contributed by Famedly.
Fix bug where servers using a Postgres database would fail to backfill from an insertion event when MSC2716 is enabled (`experimental_features.msc2716_enabled`).
Experimental: expand `check_event_for_spam` with ability to return additional fields. This enables spam-checker implementations to experiment with mechanisms to give users more information about why they are blocked and whether any action is needed from them to be unblocked.
Fix [MSC3787](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/3787) rooms being omitted from room directory, room summary and space hierarchy responses.
Fix a long-standing bug which caused the `/messages` endpoint to return an incorrect `end` attribute when there were no more events. Contributed by @Vetchu.
Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.58.0 where `/sync` would fail if the most recent event in a room was a redaction of an event that has since been purged.
Remove unused `contrib/experiements/cursesio.py` script, which fails to run under Python 3.
