+For the next release
+====================
+
+Removal warning
+---------------
+
+Some older clients used a
+[disallowed character](https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/r0.6.1#post-matrix-client-r0-register-email-requesttoken)
+(`:`) in the `client_secret` parameter of various endpoints. The incorrect
+behaviour was allowed for backwards compatibility, but is now being removed
+from Synapse as most users have updated their client. Further context can be
+found at [\#6766](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/6766).

+
+Synapse 1.19.0 (2020-08-17)
+===========================
+
+No significant changes since 1.19.0rc1.
+
+Removal warning
+---------------
+
+As outlined in the [previous release](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/releases/tag/v1.18.0), we are no longer publishing Docker images with the `-py3` tag suffix. On top of that, we have also removed the `latest-py3` tag. Please see [the announcement in the upgrade notes for 1.18.0](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/UPGRADE.rst#upgrading-to-v1180).

+
+Synapse 1.18.0 (2020-07-30)
+===========================
+
+Deprecation Warnings
+--------------------
+
+### Docker Tags with `-py3` Suffix
+
+From 10th August 2020, we will no longer publish Docker images with the `-py3` tag suffix. The images tagged with the `-py3` suffix have been identical to the non-suffixed tags since release 0.99.0, and the suffix is obsolete.
+
+On 10th August, we will remove the `latest-py3` tag. Existing per-release tags (such as `v1.18.0-py3`) will not be removed, but no new `-py3` tags will be added.
+
+Scripts relying on the `-py3` suffix will need to be updated.
+
+
+### TCP-based Replication
+
+When setting up worker processes, we now recommend the use of a Redis server for replication. The old direct TCP connection method is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. See [docs/workers.md](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/release-v1.18.0/docs/workers.md) for more details.

+Synapse 1.17.0 (2020-07-13)
+===========================
+
+Synapse 1.17.0 is identical to 1.17.0rc1, with the addition of the fix that was included in 1.16.1.
+
+
+Synapse 1.16.1 (2020-07-10)
+===========================
+
+In some distributions of Synapse 1.16.0, we incorrectly included a database migration which added a new, unused table. This release removes the redundant table.

+
+Synapse 1.16.0 (2020-07-08)
+===========================
+
+No significant changes since 1.16.0rc2.
+
+Note that this release deprecates the `m.login.jwt` login method, renaming it
+to `org.matrix.login.jwt`, as `m.login.jwt` is not part of the Matrix spec.
+Otherwise the behaviour is identical. Synapse will accept both names for now,
+but this may change in a future release.
+
+Synapse 1.16.0rc2 (2020-07-02)
+==============================
+
+Synapse 1.16.0rc2 includes the security fixes released with Synapse 1.15.2.
+Please see [below](#synapse-1152-2020-07-02) for more details.
+
+Improved Documentation
+----------------------
+
+- Update postgres image in example `docker-compose.yaml` to tag `12-alpine`. ([\#7696](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/7696))

+
+
+Synapse 1.15.2 (2020-07-02)
+===========================
+
+Due to the two security issues highlighted below, server administrators are
+encouraged to update Synapse. We are not aware of these vulnerabilities being
+exploited in the wild.
+
+Security advisory
+-----------------
+
+* A malicious homeserver could force Synapse to reset the state in a room to a
+  small subset of the correct state. This affects all Synapse deployments which
+  federate with untrusted servers. ([96e9afe6](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/commit/96e9afe62500310977dc3cbc99a8d16d3d2fa15c))
+* HTML pages served via Synapse were vulnerable to clickjacking attacks. This
+  predominantly affects homeservers with single-sign-on enabled, but all server
+  administrators are encouraged to upgrade. ([ea26e9a9](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/commit/ea26e9a98b0541fc886a1cb826a38352b7599dbe))
+
+  This was reported by [Quentin Gliech](https://sandhose.fr/).

+# Picking a database engine
+
+Synapse offers two database engines:
+ * [PostgreSQL](https://www.postgresql.org)
+ * [SQLite](https://sqlite.org/)
+
+Almost all installations should opt to use PostgreSQL. Advantages include:
+
+* significant performance improvements due to the superior threading and
+  caching model, smarter query optimiser
+* allowing the DB to be run on separate hardware
+
+For information on how to install and use PostgreSQL, please see
+[docs/postgres.md](docs/postgres.md)
+
+By default Synapse uses SQLite and in doing so trades performance for convenience.
+SQLite is only recommended in Synapse for testing purposes or for servers with
+light workloads.

 #### OpenBSD
 
-Installing prerequisites on OpenBSD:
+A port of Synapse is available under `net/synapse`. The filesystem
+underlying the homeserver directory (defaults to `/var/synapse`) has to be
+mounted with `wxallowed` (cf. `mount(8)`), so creating a separate filesystem
+and mounting it to `/var/synapse` should be taken into consideration.
+
+To be able to build Synapse's dependency on python the `WRKOBJDIR`
+(cf. `bsd.port.mk(5)`) for building python, too, needs to be on a filesystem
+mounted with `wxallowed` (cf. `mount(8)`).
+
+Creating a `WRKOBJDIR` for building python under `/usr/local` (which on a
+default OpenBSD installation is mounted with `wxallowed`):
 
 ```
-doas pkg_add python libffi py-pip py-setuptools sqlite3 py-virtualenv \
-              libxslt jpeg
+doas mkdir /usr/local/pobj_wxallowed
 ```
 
-There is currently no port for OpenBSD. Additionally, OpenBSD's security
-settings require a slightly more difficult installation process.
+Assuming `PORTS_PRIVSEP=Yes` (cf. `bsd.port.mk(5)`) and `SUDO=doas` are
+configured in `/etc/mk.conf`:
 
-(XXX: I suspect this is out of date)
+```
+doas chown _pbuild:_pbuild /usr/local/pobj_wxallowed
+```
 
-1. Create a new directory in `/usr/local` called `_synapse`. Also, create a
-   new user called `_synapse` and set that directory as the new user's home.
-   This is required because, by default, OpenBSD only allows binaries which need

+which support well-known lookup to automatically configure the homeserver and

+about the actual homeserver URL you are using.
+
+The URL `https://<server_name>/.well-known/matrix/client` should return JSON in

-Using PostgreSQL
-================
-
-Synapse offers two database engines:
- * `SQLite <https://sqlite.org/>`_
- * `PostgreSQL <https://www.postgresql.org>`_
-
-By default Synapse uses SQLite in and doing so trades performance for convenience.
-SQLite is only recommended in Synapse for testing purposes or for servers with
-light workloads.
-
-Almost all installations should opt to use PostreSQL. Advantages include:
-
-* significant performance improvements due to the superior threading and
-  caching model, smarter query optimiser
-* allowing the DB to be run on separate hardware
-* allowing basic active/backup high-availability with a "hot spare" synapse
-  pointing at the same DB master, as well as enabling DB replication in
-  synapse itself.

+From 10th August 2020, we will no longer publish Docker images with the `-py3` tag suffix. The images tagged with the `-py3` suffix have been identical to the non-suffixed tags since release 0.99.0, and the suffix is obsolete.

+On 10th August, we will remove the `latest-py3` tag. Existing per-release tags (such as `v1.18.0-py3`) will not be removed, but no new `-py3` tags will be added.

-    Synapse's architecture is quite RAM hungry currently - a lot of

-    order to speed up common requests.  This will be improved in
-    future, but for now the easiest way to either reduce the RAM usage
-    (at the risk of slowing things down) is to set the
-    SYNAPSE_CACHE_FACTOR environment variable. Roughly speaking, a
-    SYNAPSE_CACHE_FACTOR of 1.0 will max out at around 3-4GB of
-    resident memory - this is what we currently run the matrix.org
-    on. The default setting is currently 0.1, which is probably around
-    a ~700MB footprint. You can dial it down further to 0.02 if
-    desired, which targets roughly ~512MB. Conversely you can dial it
-    up if you need performance for lots of users and have a box with a
-    lot of RAM.

+    in memory constrained enviroments, or increased if performance starts to
+    degrade.
+
+    However, degraded performance due to a low cache factor, common on
+    machines with slow disks, often leads to explosions in memory use due
+    backlogged requests. In this case, reducing the cache factor will make
+    things worse. Instead, try increasing it drastically. 2.0 is a good

+# Delete Room API
+
+The Delete Room admin API allows server admins to remove rooms from server
+and block these rooms.
+It is a combination and improvement of "[Shutdown room](shutdown_room.md)"
+and "[Purge room](purge_room.md)" API.
+
+Shuts down a room. Moves all local users and room aliases automatically to a
+new room if `new_room_user_id` is set. Otherwise local users only
+leave the room without any information.
+
+The new room will be created with the user specified by the `new_room_user_id` parameter
+as room administrator and will contain a message explaining what happened. Users invited
+to the new room will have power level `-10` by default, and thus be unable to speak.
+
+If `block` is `True` it prevents new joins to the old room.
+
+This API will remove all trace of the old room from your database after removing
+all local users. If `purge` is `true` (the default), all traces of the old room will
+be removed from your database after removing all local users. If you do not want
+this to happen, set `purge` to `false`.
+Depending on the amount of history being purged a call to the API may take
+several minutes or longer.
+
+The local server will only have the power to move local user and room aliases to
+the new room. Users on other servers will be unaffected.
+
+The API is:
+
+```json
+POST /_synapse/admin/v1/rooms/<room_id>/delete
+```
+
+with a body of:
+```json
+{
+    "new_room_user_id": "@someuser:example.com",

+The following parameters should be set in the URL:
+
+* `room_id` - The ID of the room.
+
+The following JSON body parameters are available:
+
+* `new_room_user_id` - Optional. If set, a new room will be created with this user ID
+      as the creator and admin, and all users in the old room will be moved into that
+      room. If not set, no new room will be created and the users will just be removed
+      from the old room. The user ID must be on the local server, but does not necessarily
+      have to belong to a registered user.
+* `room_name` - Optional. A string representing the name of the room that new users will be
+                invited to. Defaults to `Content Violation Notification`
+* `message` - Optional. A string containing the first message that will be sent as
+              `new_room_user_id` in the new room. Ideally this will clearly convey why the
+               original room was shut down. Defaults to `Sharing illegal content on this server
+               is not permitted and rooms in violation will be blocked.`
+* `block` - Optional. If set to `true`, this room will be added to a blocking list, preventing
+            future attempts to join the room. Defaults to `false`.
+* `purge` - Optional. If set to `true`, it will remove all traces of the room from your database.
+            Defaults to `true`.
+
+The JSON body must not be empty. The body must be at least `{}`.

+## Undoing room shutdowns
+
+*Note*: This guide may be outdated by the time you read it. By nature of room shutdowns being performed at the database level,
+the structure can and does change without notice.
+
+First, it's important to understand that a room shutdown is very destructive. Undoing a shutdown is not as simple as pretending it
+never happened - work has to be done to move forward instead of resetting the past. In fact, in some cases it might not be possible
+to recover at all:
+
+* If the room was invite-only, your users will need to be re-invited.
+* If the room no longer has any members at all, it'll be impossible to rejoin.
+* The first user to rejoin will have to do so via an alias on a different server.
+
+With all that being said, if you still want to try and recover the room:
+
+1. For safety reasons, shut down Synapse.
+2. In the database, run `DELETE FROM blocked_rooms WHERE room_id = '!example:example.org';`
+   * For caution: it's recommended to run this in a transaction: `BEGIN; DELETE ...;`, verify you got 1 result, then `COMMIT;`.
+   * The room ID is the same one supplied to the shutdown room API, not the Content Violation room.
+3. Restart Synapse.
+
+You will have to manually handle, if you so choose, the following:
+
+* Aliases that would have been redirected to the Content Violation room.
+* Users that would have been booted from the room (and will have been force-joined to the Content Violation room).
+* Removal of the Content Violation room if desired.

-# How to test OpenID Connect
-
-Any OpenID Connect Provider (OP) should work with Synapse, as long as it supports the authorization code flow.
-There are a few options for that:
-
- - start a local OP. Synapse has been tested with [Hydra][hydra] and [Dex][dex-idp].
-   Note that for an OP to work, it should be served under a secure (HTTPS) origin.
-   A certificate signed with a self-signed, locally trusted CA should work. In that case, start Synapse with a `SSL_CERT_FILE` environment variable set to the path of the CA.
- - use a publicly available OP. Synapse has been tested with [Google][google-idp].
- - setup a SaaS OP, like [Auth0][auth0] and [Okta][okta]. Auth0 has a free tier which has been tested with Synapse.

-## Sample configs
-
-Here are a few configs for providers that should work with Synapse.
-
-### [Dex][dex-idp]
-
-[Dex][dex-idp] is a simple, open-source, certified OpenID Connect Provider.
-Although it is designed to help building a full-blown provider, with some external database, it can be configured with static passwords in a config file.
-
-Follow the [Getting Started guide](https://github.com/dexidp/dex/blob/master/Documentation/getting-started.md) to install Dex.
-
-Edit `examples/config-dev.yaml` config file from the Dex repo to add a client:
-
-```yaml
-staticClients:
-- id: synapse
-  secret: secret
-  redirectURIs:
-  - '[synapse base url]/_synapse/oidc/callback'
-  name: 'Synapse'
-```
-
-Run with `dex serve examples/config-dex.yaml`
-
-Synapse config:
-
-```yaml
-oidc_config:
-   enabled: true
-   skip_verification: true # This is needed as Dex is served on an insecure endpoint
-   issuer: "http://127.0.0.1:5556/dex"
-   discover: true
-   client_id: "synapse"
-   client_secret: "secret"
-   scopes:
-     - openid
-     - profile
-   user_mapping_provider:
-     config:
-       localpart_template: '{{ user.name }}'
-       display_name_template: '{{ user.name|capitalize }}'
-```
-
-### [Auth0][auth0]
-
-1. Create a regular web application for Synapse
-2. Set the Allowed Callback URLs to `[synapse base url]/_synapse/oidc/callback`
-3. Add a rule to add the `preferred_username` claim.
-   <details>
-    <summary>Code sample</summary>
-
-    ```js
-    function addPersistenceAttribute(user, context, callback) {

-      user.user_metadata.preferred_username = user.user_metadata.preferred_username || user.user_id;
-      context.idToken.preferred_username = user.user_metadata.preferred_username;
-
-      auth0.users.updateUserMetadata(user.user_id, user.user_metadata)
-        .then(function(){
-            callback(null, user, context);

+# JWT Login Type
+
+Synapse comes with a non-standard login type to support
+[JSON Web Tokens](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON_Web_Token). In general the
+documentation for
+[the login endpoint](https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/r0.6.1#login)
+is still valid (and the mechanism works similarly to the
+[token based login](https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/r0.6.1#token-based)).
+
+To log in using a JSON Web Token, clients should submit a `/login` request as
+follows:
+
+```json
+{
+  "type": "org.matrix.login.jwt",
+  "token": "<jwt>"
+}
+```
+
+Note that the login type of `m.login.jwt` is supported, but is deprecated. This
+will be removed in a future version of Synapse.
+
+The `token` field should include the JSON web token with the following claims:
+
+* The `sub` (subject) claim is required and should encode the local part of the
+  user ID.
+* The expiration time (`exp`), not before time (`nbf`), and issued at (`iat`)
+  claims are optional, but validated if present.
+* The issuer (`iss`) claim is optional, but required and validated if configured.
+* The audience (`aud`) claim is optional, but required and validated if configured.
+  Providing the audience claim when not configured will cause validation to fail.
+
+In the case that the token is not valid, the homeserver must respond with
+`403 Forbidden` and an error code of `M_FORBIDDEN`.
+
+As with other login types, there are additional fields (e.g. `device_id` and
+`initial_device_display_name`) which can be included in the above request.
+
+## Preparing Synapse
+
+The JSON Web Token integration in Synapse uses the
+[`PyJWT`](https://pypi.org/project/pyjwt/) library, which must be installed
+as follows:
+
+ * The relevant libraries are included in the Docker images and Debian packages
+   provided by `matrix.org` so no further action is needed.
+
+ * If you installed Synapse into a virtualenv, run `/path/to/env/bin/pip
+   install synapse[pyjwt]` to install the necessary dependencies.
+
+ * For other installation mechanisms, see the documentation provided by the
+   maintainer.
+
+To enable the JSON web token integration, you should then add an `jwt_config` section
+to your configuration file (or uncomment the `enabled: true` line in the
+existing section). See [sample_config.yaml](./sample_config.yaml) for some
+sample settings.
+
+## How to test JWT as a developer
+
+Although JSON Web Tokens are typically generated from an external server, the
+examples below use [PyJWT](https://pyjwt.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) directly.
+
+1.  Configure Synapse with JWT logins, note that this example uses a pre-shared
+    secret and an algorithm of HS256:
+
+    ```yaml
+    jwt_config:
+        enabled: true
+        secret: "my-secret-token"
+        algorithm: "HS256"
+    ```
+2.  Generate a JSON web token:
+
+    ```bash
+    $ pyjwt --key=my-secret-token --alg=HS256 encode sub=test-user
+    eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJ0ZXN0LXVzZXIifQ.Ag71GT8v01UO3w80aqRPTeuVPBIBZkYhNTJJ-_-zQIc
+    ```
+3.  Query for the login types and ensure `org.matrix.login.jwt` is there:
+
+    ```bash
+    curl http://localhost:8080/_matrix/client/r0/login
+    ```
+4.  Login used the generated JSON web token from above:
+
+    ```bash
+    $ curl http://localhost:8082/_matrix/client/r0/login -X POST \
+        --data '{"type":"org.matrix.login.jwt","token":"eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJ0ZXN0LXVzZXIifQ.Ag71GT8v01UO3w80aqRPTeuVPBIBZkYhNTJJ-_-zQIc"}'
+    {
+        "access_token": "<access token>",
+        "device_id": "ACBDEFGHI",
+        "home_server": "localhost:8080",
+        "user_id": "@test-user:localhost:8480"
+    }
+    ```
+
+You should now be able to use the returned access token to query the client API.

+# Configuring Synapse to authenticate against an OpenID Connect provider
+
+Synapse can be configured to use an OpenID Connect Provider (OP) for
+authentication, instead of its own local password database.
+
+Any OP should work with Synapse, as long as it supports the authorization code
+flow. There are a few options for that:
+
+ - start a local OP. Synapse has been tested with [Hydra][hydra] and
+   [Dex][dex-idp].  Note that for an OP to work, it should be served under a
+   secure (HTTPS) origin.  A certificate signed with a self-signed, locally
+   trusted CA should work. In that case, start Synapse with a `SSL_CERT_FILE`
+   environment variable set to the path of the CA.
+
+ - set up a SaaS OP, like [Google][google-idp], [Auth0][auth0] or
+   [Okta][okta]. Synapse has been tested with Auth0 and Google.
+
+It may also be possible to use other OAuth2 providers which provide the
+[authorization code grant type](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6749#section-4.1),
+such as [Github][github-idp].
+
+[google-idp]: https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/oauth2/openid-connect
+[auth0]: https://auth0.com/

+
+## Preparing Synapse
+
+The OpenID integration in Synapse uses the
+[`authlib`](https://pypi.org/project/Authlib/) library, which must be installed
+as follows:
+
+ * The relevant libraries are included in the Docker images and Debian packages
+   provided by `matrix.org` so no further action is needed.
+
+ * If you installed Synapse into a virtualenv, run `/path/to/env/bin/pip
+   install synapse[oidc]` to install the necessary dependencies.
+
+ * For other installation mechanisms, see the documentation provided by the
+   maintainer.
+
+To enable the OpenID integration, you should then add an `oidc_config` section
+to your configuration file (or uncomment the `enabled: true` line in the
+existing section). See [sample_config.yaml](./sample_config.yaml) for some
+sample settings, as well as the text below for example configurations for
+specific providers.
+
+## Sample configs
+
+Here are a few configs for providers that should work with Synapse.
+
+### [Dex][dex-idp]
+
+[Dex][dex-idp] is a simple, open-source, certified OpenID Connect Provider.
+Although it is designed to help building a full-blown provider with an
+external database, it can be configured with static passwords in a config file.
+
+Follow the [Getting Started
+guide](https://github.com/dexidp/dex/blob/master/Documentation/getting-started.md)
+to install Dex.
+
+Edit `examples/config-dev.yaml` config file from the Dex repo to add a client:
+
+```yaml
+staticClients:
+- id: synapse
+  secret: secret
+  redirectURIs:
+  - '[synapse public baseurl]/_synapse/oidc/callback'
+  name: 'Synapse'
+```
+
+Run with `dex serve examples/config-dex.yaml`.
+
+Synapse config:
+
+```yaml
+oidc_config:
+   enabled: true
+   skip_verification: true # This is needed as Dex is served on an insecure endpoint
+   issuer: "http://127.0.0.1:5556/dex"

+       display_name_template: "{{ user.name|capitalize }}"
+```
+### [Keycloak][keycloak-idp]
+
+[Keycloak][keycloak-idp] is an opensource IdP maintained by Red Hat. 
+
+Follow the [Getting Started Guide](https://www.keycloak.org/getting-started) to install Keycloak and set up a realm.

+  The method should return an `Awaitable` object, which resolves
+  to a `str` containing the user's (canonical) User id if

+
+  This method provides a simpler interface than
+  `get_supported_login_types` and `check_auth` for password auth
+  providers that just want to provide a mechanism for validating
+  `m.login.password` logins.
+
+  If implemented, it will be called to check logins with an
+  `m.login.password` login type. It is passed a qualified
+  `@localpart:domain` user id, and the password provided by the user.
+
+  The method should return an `Awaitable` object, which resolves
+  to `True` if authentication is successful, and `False` if not.
+
+* `on_logged_out(self, user_id, device_id, access_token)`
+
+  This method, if implemented, is called when a user logs out. It is
+  passed the qualified user ID, the ID of the deactivated device (if
+  any: access tokens are occasionally created without an associated
+  device ID), and the (now deactivated) access token.
+
+  It may return an `Awaitable` object; the logout request will
+  wait for the `Awaitable` to complete, but the result is ignored.

+to the main process, all the workers and the main process connect to Redis,
+which relays replication commands between processes. This can give a significant
+cpu saving on the main process and will be a prerequisite for upcoming
+performance improvements.
+
+See the [Architectural diagram](#architectural-diagram) section at the end for
+a visualisation of what this looks like.
+
+
+## Setting up workers
+
+A Redis server is required to manage the communication between the processes.
+The Redis server should be installed following the normal procedure for your
+distribution (e.g. `apt install redis-server` on Debian). It is safe to use an
+existing Redis deployment if you have one.
+
+Once installed, check that Redis is running and accessible from the host running
+Synapse, for example by executing `echo PING | nc -q1 localhost 6379` and seeing
+a response of `+PONG`.
+
+The appropriate dependencies must also be installed for Synapse. If using a
+virtualenv, these can be installed with:
+
+```sh
+pip install matrix-synapse[redis]
+```
+
+Note that these dependencies are included when synapse is installed with `pip
+install matrix-synapse[all]`. They are also included in the debian packages from
+`matrix.org` and in the docker images at
+https://hub.docker.com/r/matrixdotorg/synapse/.
 
 To make effective use of the workers, you will need to configure an HTTP
 reverse-proxy such as nginx or haproxy, which will direct incoming requests to
-the correct worker, or to the main synapse instance. Note that this includes
-requests made to the federation port. See [reverse_proxy.md](reverse_proxy.md)
-for information on setting up a reverse proxy.
+the correct worker, or to the main synapse instance. See
+[reverse_proxy.md](reverse_proxy.md) for information on setting up a reverse
+proxy.
+
+When using workers, each worker process has its own configuration file which
+contains settings specific to that worker, such as the HTTP listener that it
+provides (if any), logging configuration, etc.
+
+Normally, the worker processes are configured to read from a shared
+configuration file as well as the worker-specific configuration files. This
+makes it easier to keep common configuration settings synchronised across all
+the processes.
+
+The main process is somewhat special in this respect: it does not normally
+need its own configuration file and can take all of its configuration from the
+shared configuration file.
+
+
+### Shared configuration
+
+Normally, only a couple of changes are needed to make an existing configuration
+file suitable for use with workers. First, you need to enable an "HTTP replication
+listener" for the main process; and secondly, you need to enable redis-based
+replication. For example:
 
-To enable workers, you need to add *two* replication listeners to the
-main Synapse configuration file (`homeserver.yaml`). For example:
 
 ```yaml
+# extend the existing `listeners` section. This defines the ports that the
+# main process will listen on.
 listeners:
-  # The TCP replication port
-  - port: 9092
-    bind_address: '127.0.0.1'
-    type: replication
-
   # The HTTP replication port
   - port: 9093
     bind_address: '127.0.0.1'
     type: http
     resources:
      - names: [replication]
+
+redis:
+    enabled: true
 ```
 
-Under **no circumstances** should these replication API listeners be exposed to
-the public internet; they have no authentication and are unencrypted.
+See the sample config for the full documentation of each option.
 
-You should then create a set of configs for the various worker processes.  Each
-worker configuration file inherits the configuration of the main homeserver
-configuration file.  You can then override configuration specific to that
-worker, e.g. the HTTP listener that it provides (if any); logging
-configuration; etc.  You should minimise the number of overrides though to
-maintain a usable config.
+Under **no circumstances** should the replication listener be exposed to the
+public internet; it has no authentication and is unencrypted.
+
+
+### Worker configuration
 
 In the config file for each worker, you must specify the type of worker
-application (`worker_app`). The currently available worker applications are
-listed below. You must also specify the replication endpoints that it should
-talk to on the main synapse process.  `worker_replication_host` should specify
-the host of the main synapse, `worker_replication_port` should point to the TCP
-replication listener port and `worker_replication_http_port` should point to
-the HTTP replication port.
+application (`worker_app`), and you should specify a unqiue name for the worker
+(`worker_name`). The currently available worker applications are listed below.
+You must also specify the HTTP replication endpoint that it should talk to on
+the main synapse process.  `worker_replication_host` should specify the host of
+the main synapse and `worker_replication_http_port` should point to the HTTP
+replication port. If the worker will handle HTTP requests then the
+`worker_listeners` option should be set with a `http` listener, in the same way
+as the `listeners` option in the shared config.
 
 For example:
 
 ```yaml
-worker_app: synapse.app.synchrotron
+worker_app: synapse.app.generic_worker
+worker_name: worker1
 
-# The replication listener on the synapse to talk to.
+# The replication listener on the main synapse process.

 endpoints to the worker (`localhost:8083` in the above example).
 
+
+### Running Synapse with workers
+
 Finally, you need to start your worker processes. This can be done with either
 `synctl` or your distribution's preferred service manager such as `systemd`. We
 recommend the use of `systemd` where available: for information on setting up
 `systemd` to start synapse workers, see
-[systemd-with-workers](systemd-with-workers). To use `synctl`, see below.
+[systemd-with-workers](systemd-with-workers). To use `synctl`, see
+[synctl_workers.md](synctl_workers.md).
 
-### **Experimental** support for replication over redis
-
-As of Synapse v1.13.0, it is possible to configure Synapse to send replication
-via a [Redis pub/sub channel](https://redis.io/topics/pubsub). This is an
-alternative to direct TCP connections to the master: rather than all the
-workers connecting to the master, all the workers and the master connect to
-Redis, which relays replication commands between processes. This can give a
-significant cpu saving on the master and will be a prerequisite for upcoming
-performance improvements.
-
-Note that this support is currently experimental; you may experience lost
-messages and similar problems! It is strongly recommended that admins setting
-up workers for the first time use direct TCP replication as above.
-
-To configure Synapse to use Redis:
-
-1. Install Redis following the normal procedure for your distribution - for
-   example, on Debian, `apt install redis-server`. (It is safe to use an
-   existing Redis deployment if you have one: we use a pub/sub stream named
-   according to the `server_name` of your synapse server.)
-2. Check Redis is running and accessible: you should be able to `echo PING | nc -q1
-   localhost 6379` and get a response of `+PONG`.
-3. Install the python prerequisites. If you installed synapse into a
-   virtualenv, this can be done with:
-   ```sh
-   pip install matrix-synapse[redis]
-   ```
-   The debian packages from matrix.org already include the required
-   dependencies.
-4. Add config to the shared configuration (`homeserver.yaml`):
-    ```yaml
-    redis:
-      enabled: true
-    ```
-    Optional parameters which can go alongside `enabled` are `host`, `port`,
-    `password`. Normally none of these are required.
-5. Restart master and all workers.
-
-Once redis replication is in use, `worker_replication_port` is redundant and
-can be removed from the worker configuration files. Similarly, the
-configuration for the `listener` for the TCP replication port can be removed
-from the main configuration file. Note that the HTTP replication port is
-still required.
-
-### Using synctl
-
-If you want to use `synctl` to manage your synapse processes, you will need to
-create an an additional configuration file for the master synapse process. That
-configuration should look like this:
-
-```yaml
-worker_app: synapse.app.homeserver
-```
-
-Additionally, each worker app must be configured with the name of a "pid file",
-to which it will write its process ID when it starts. For example, for a
-synchrotron, you might write:
-
-```yaml
-worker_pid_file: /home/matrix/synapse/synchrotron.pid
-```
-
-Finally, to actually run your worker-based synapse, you must pass synctl the `-a`
-commandline option to tell it to operate on all the worker configurations found
-in the given directory, e.g.:
-
-    synctl -a $CONFIG/workers start
-
-Currently one should always restart all workers when restarting or upgrading
-synapse, unless you explicitly know it's safe not to.  For instance, restarting
-synapse without restarting all the synchrotrons may result in broken typing
-notifications.
-
-To manipulate a specific worker, you pass the -w option to synctl:
-
-    synctl -w $CONFIG/workers/synchrotron.yaml restart
 
 ## Available worker applications
 
-### `synapse.app.pusher`
+### `synapse.app.generic_worker`
 
-Handles sending push notifications to sygnal and email. Doesn't handle any
-REST endpoints itself, but you should set `start_pushers: False` in the
-shared configuration file to stop the main synapse sending these notifications.
-
-Note this worker cannot be load-balanced: only one instance should be active.
-
-### `synapse.app.synchrotron`
-
-The synchrotron handles `sync` requests from clients. In particular, it can
-handle REST endpoints matching the following regular expressions:
+This worker can handle API requests matching the following regular
+expressions:
 
+    # Sync requests
     ^/_matrix/client/(v2_alpha|r0)/sync$
     ^/_matrix/client/(api/v1|v2_alpha|r0)/events$
     ^/_matrix/client/(api/v1|r0)/initialSync$
     ^/_matrix/client/(api/v1|r0)/rooms/[^/]+/initialSync$
 
-The above endpoints should all be routed to the synchrotron worker by the
-reverse-proxy configuration.
-
-It is possible to run multiple instances of the synchrotron to scale
-horizontally. In this case the reverse-proxy should be configured to
-load-balance across the instances, though it will be more efficient if all
-requests from a particular user are routed to a single instance. Extracting
-a userid from the access token is currently left as an exercise for the reader.

 Additionally, the following REST endpoints can be handled for GET requests:
 
     ^/_matrix/federation/v1/groups/
 
-The above endpoints should all be routed to the federation_reader worker by the
-reverse-proxy configuration.
+Pagination requests can also be handled, but all requests for a given
+room must be routed to the same instance. Additionally, care must be taken to
+ensure that the purge history admin API is not used while pagination requests
+for the room are in flight:
 
-The `^/_matrix/federation/v1/send/` endpoint must only be handled by a single
-instance.
+    ^/_matrix/client/(api/v1|r0|unstable)/rooms/.*/messages$
 
-Note that `federation` must be added to the listener resources in the worker config:
+Note that a HTTP listener with `client` and `federation` resources must be
+configured in the `worker_listeners` option in the worker config.
+
+
+#### Load balancing
+
+It is possible to run multiple instances of this worker app, with incoming requests
+being load-balanced between them by the reverse-proxy. However, different endpoints
+have different characteristics and so admins
+may wish to run multiple groups of workers handling different endpoints so that
+load balancing can be done in different ways.
+
+For `/sync` and `/initialSync` requests it will be more efficient if all
+requests from a particular user are routed to a single instance. Extracting a
+user ID from the access token or `Authorization` header is currently left as an
+exercise for the reader. Admins may additionally wish to separate out `/sync`
+requests that have a `since` query parameter from those that don't (and
+`/initialSync`), as requests that don't are known as "initial sync" that happens
+when a user logs in on a new device and can be *very* resource intensive, so
+isolating these requests will stop them from interfering with other users ongoing
+syncs.
+
+Federation and client requests can be balanced via simple round robin.
+
+The inbound federation transaction request `^/_matrix/federation/v1/send/`
+should be balanced by source IP so that transactions from the same remote server
+go to the same process.
+
+Registration/login requests can be handled separately purely to help ensure that
+unexpected load doesn't affect new logins and sign ups.
+
+Finally, event sending requests can be balanced by the room ID in the URI (or
+the full URI, or even just round robin), the room ID is the path component after
+`/rooms/`. If there is a large bridge connected that is sending or may send lots
+of events, then a dedicated set of workers can be provisioned to limit the
+effects of bursts of events from that bridge on events sent by normal users.
+
+#### Stream writers
+
+Additionally, there is *experimental* support for moving writing of specific
+streams (such as events) off of the main process to a particular worker. (This
+is only supported with Redis-based replication.)
+
+Currently support streams are `events` and `typing`.
+
+To enable this, the worker must have a HTTP replication listener configured,
+have a `worker_name` and be listed in the `instance_map` config. For example to
+move event persistence off to a dedicated worker, the shared configuration would
+include:
 
 ```yaml
-worker_app: synapse.app.federation_reader
-...
-worker_listeners:
- - type: http
-   port: <port>
-   resources:
-     - names:
-       - federation
+instance_map:
+    event_persister1:

+## Migration from old config
+
+There are two main independent changes that have been made: introducing Redis
+support and merging apps into `synapse.app.generic_worker`. Both these changes
+are backwards compatible and so no changes to the config are required, however
+server admins are encouraged to plan to migrate to Redis as the old style direct
+TCP replication config is deprecated.
+
+To migrate to Redis add the `redis` config as above, and optionally remove the
+TCP `replication` listener from master and `worker_replication_port` from worker
+config.
+
+To migrate apps to use `synapse.app.generic_worker` simply update the
+`worker_app` option in the worker configs, and where worker are started (e.g.
+in systemd service files, but not required for synctl).
