I realised that, for every event, we were storing a second copy of the outlier flag in internal_metadata. That's 15 bytes per event. FIFTEEN!

Well anyway it feels a bit redundant, and I'd quite like to remove it. I think we can do this in two phases:

  • First (this one): stop relying on the data in the internal_metadata column. This should be backwards-compatible.
  • Later: stop storing outlier in the internal_metadata column. That will break rollback to older synapse versions.

Populate internal_metadata.outlier based on events table
867361e 
Rather than relying on `outlier` being in the `internal_metadata` column,
populate it based on the `events.outlier` column.

Move outlier out of InternalMetadata._dict
3cd4512 
Ultimately, this will allow us to stop writing it to the database. For now, we
have to grandfather it back in so as to maintain compatibility with older
versions of Synapse.

CI failure looks to be genuine and not just a flaky test.

Update chat/matrix-synapse to 1.32.2
e1d228b 
Synapse 1.32.2 (2021-04-22)
===========================

This release includes a fix for a regression introduced in 1.32.0.

Bugfixes
--------

- Fix a regression in Synapse 1.32.0 and 1.32.1 which caused `LoggingContext` errors in plugins. ([\#9857](matrix-org/synapse#9857))


Synapse 1.32.1 (2021-04-21)
===========================

This release fixes [a regression](matrix-org/synapse#9853)
in Synapse 1.32.0 that caused connected Prometheus instances to become unstable.

However, as this release is still subject to the `LoggingContext` change in 1.32.0,
it is recommended to remain on or downgrade to 1.31.0.

Bugfixes
--------

- Fix a regression in Synapse 1.32.0 which caused Synapse to report large numbers of Prometheus time series, potentially overwhelming Prometheus instances. ([\#9854](matrix-org/synapse#9854))


Synapse 1.32.0 (2021-04-20)
===========================

**Note:** This release introduces [a regression](matrix-org/synapse#9853)
that can overwhelm connected Prometheus instances. This issue was not present in
1.32.0rc1. If affected, it is recommended to downgrade to 1.31.0 in the meantime, and
follow [these instructions](matrix-org/synapse#9854 (comment))
to clean up any excess writeahead logs.

**Note:** This release also mistakenly included a change that may affected Synapse
modules that import `synapse.logging.context.LoggingContext`, such as
[synapse-s3-storage-provider](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse-s3-storage-provider).
This will be fixed in a later Synapse version.

**Note:** This release requires Python 3.6+ and Postgres 9.6+ or SQLite 3.22+.

This release removes the deprecated `GET /_synapse/admin/v1/users/<user_id>` admin API. Please use the [v2 API](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/admin_api/user_admin_api.rst#query-user-account) instead, which has improved capabilities.

This release requires Application Services to use type `m.login.application_service` when registering users via the `/_matrix/client/r0/register` endpoint to comply with the spec. Please ensure your Application Services are up to date.

If you are using the `packages.matrix.org` Debian repository for Synapse packages,
note that we have recently updated the expiry date on the gpg signing key. If you see an
error similar to `The following signatures were invalid: EXPKEYSIG F473DD4473365DE1`, you
will need to get a fresh copy of the keys. You can do so with:

```sh
sudo wget -O /usr/share/keyrings/matrix-org-archive-keyring.gpg https://packages.matrix.org/debian/matrix-org-archive-keyring.gpg
```

Bugfixes

Synapse 1.31.0 (2021-04-06)
===========================

**Note:** As announced in v1.25.0, and in line with the deprecation policy for platform dependencies, this is the last release to support Python 3.5 and PostgreSQL 9.5. Future versions of Synapse will require Python 3.6+ and PostgreSQL 9.6+, as per our [deprecation policy](docs/deprecation_policy.md).

This is also the last release that the Synapse team will be publishing packages for Debian Stretch and Ubuntu Xenial.


Improved Documentation

Internal Changes
----------------

- Revert using `dmypy run` in lint script. ([\#9720](matrix-org/synapse#9720))
- Pin flake8-bugbear's version. ([\#9734](matrix-org/synapse#9734))


Synapse 1.31.0rc1 (2021-03-30)
==============================

Features
--------

- Add support to OpenID Connect login for requiring attributes on the `userinfo` response. Contributed by Hubbe King. ([\#9609](matrix-org/synapse#9609))

- Fix type-checking CI on develop. ([\#9709](matrix-org/synapse#9709))


Synapse 1.30.1 (2021-03-26)
===========================

This release is identical to Synapse 1.30.0, with the exception of explicitly
setting a minimum version of Python's Cryptography library to ensure that users
of Synapse are protected from the recent [OpenSSL security advisories](https://mta.openssl.org/pipermail/openssl-announce/2021-March/000198.html),
especially CVE-2021-3449.

Note that Cryptography defaults to bundling its own statically linked copy of
OpenSSL, which means that you may not be protected by your operating system's
security updates.

It's also worth noting that Cryptography no longer supports Python 3.5, so
admins deploying to older environments may not be protected against this or
future vulnerabilities. Synapse will be dropping support for Python 3.5 at the
end of March.


Updates to the Docker image
---------------------------

- Ensure that the docker container has up to date versions of openssl. ([\#9697](matrix-org/synapse#9697))


Internal Changes
----------------

- Enforce that `cryptography` dependency is up to date to ensure it has the most recent openssl patches. ([\#9697](matrix-org/synapse#9697))


Synapse 1.30.0 (2021-03-22)
===========================

Note that this release deprecates the ability for appservices to
call `POST /_matrix/client/r0/register`  without the body parameter `type`. Appservice
developers should use a `type` value of `m.login.application_service` as
per [the spec](https://matrix.org/docs/spec/application_service/r0.1.2#server-admin-style-permissions).
In future releases, calling this endpoint with an access token - but without a `m.login.application_service`
type - will fail.


No significant changes.


Synapse 1.30.0rc1 (2021-03-16)
==============================

Features
--------

- Add prometheus metrics for number of users successfully registering and logging in. ([\#9510](matrix-org/synapse#9510), [\#9511](matrix-org/synapse#9511), [\#9573](matrix-org/synapse#9573))
- Add `synapse_federation_last_sent_pdu_time` and `synapse_federation_last_received_pdu_time` prometheus metrics, which monitor federation delays by reporting the timestamps of messages sent and received to a set of remote servers. ([\#9540](matrix-org/synapse#9540))
- Add support for generating JSON Web Tokens dynamically for use as OIDC client secrets. ([\#9549](matrix-org/synapse#9549))
- Optimise handling of incomplete room history for incoming federation. ([\#9601](matrix-org/synapse#9601))
- Finalise support for allowing clients to pick an SSO Identity Provider ([MSC2858](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2858)). ([\#9617](matrix-org/synapse#9617))
- Tell spam checker modules about the SSO IdP a user registered through if one was used. ([\#9626](matrix-org/synapse#9626))


Bugfixes

- Fix re-activating an account via the admin API when local passwords are disabled. ([\#9587](matrix-org/synapse#9587))
- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.20 which caused incoming federation transactions to stack up, causing slow recovery from outages. ([\#9597](matrix-org/synapse#9597))
- Fix a bug introduced in v1.28.0 where the OpenID Connect callback endpoint could error with a `MacaroonInitException`. ([\#9620](matrix-org/synapse#9620))
- Fix Internal Server Error on `GET /_synapse/client/saml2/authn_response` request. ([\#9623](matrix-org/synapse#9623))


Updates to the Docker image
---------------------------

- Make use of an improved malloc implementation (`jemalloc`) in the docker image. ([\#8553](matrix-org/synapse#8553))


Improved Documentation
----------------------

- Add relayd entry to reverse proxy example configurations. ([\#9508](matrix-org/synapse#9508))
- Improve the SAML2 upgrade notes for 1.27.0. ([\#9550](matrix-org/synapse#9550))
- Link to the "List user's media" admin API from the media admin API docs. ([\#9571](matrix-org/synapse#9571))
- Clarify the spam checker modules documentation example to mention that `parse_config` is a required method. ([\#9580](matrix-org/synapse#9580))
- Clarify the sample configuration for `stats` settings. ([\#9604](matrix-org/synapse#9604))


Deprecations and Removals
-------------------------

- The `synapse_federation_last_sent_pdu_age` and `synapse_federation_last_received_pdu_age` prometheus metrics have been removed. They are replaced by `synapse_federation_last_sent_pdu_time` and `synapse_federation_last_received_pdu_time`. ([\#9540](matrix-org/synapse#9540))
- Registering an Application Service user without using the `m.login.application_service` login type will be unsupported in an upcoming Synapse release. ([\#9559](matrix-org/synapse#9559))


Internal Changes
----------------

- Add an additional test for purging a room. ([\#9541](matrix-org/synapse#9541))
- Add a `.git-blame-ignore-revs` file with the hashes of auto-formatting. ([\#9560](matrix-org/synapse#9560))

Drop backwards-compatibility support for "outlier"
ac5adff 
Before Synapse 1.31 (#9411), we relied on `outlier` being stored in the
`internal_metadata` column. We can now assume nobody will roll back their
deployment that far and drop the legacy support.
