Spreading module callback registration across the codebase is both a bit
messy and makes it unclear where a user should register callbacks if
they want to define a new class of callbacks.
Consolidating these under the synapse.module_api module cleans things up
a bit, puts related code in the same place and makes it much more
obvious how to extend it.
This removes the experimental configuration option and
always escapes the push rule condition keys.
Also escapes any (experimental) push rule condition keys
in the base rules which contain dot in a field name.
Enables MSC3925 support by default, which:
* Includes the full edit event in the bundled aggregations of an
edited event.
* Stops modifying the original event's content to return the new
content from the edit event.
This is a backwards-incompatible change that is considered to be
"correct" by the spec.
AbstractStreamIdTracker (now) has only a single sub-class: AbstractStreamIdGenerator,
combine them to simplify some code and remove any direct references to
AbstractStreamIdTracker.
This replaces the specific `is_user_mention` push rule condition
used in MSC3952 with the generic `exact_event_property_contains`
push rule condition from MSC3966.
It turns out that no clients rely on server-side aggregation of `m.annotation`
relationships: it's just not very useful as currently implemented.
It's also non-trivial to calculate.
I want to remove it from MSC2677, so to keep the implementation in line, let's
remove it here.
Internally the push rules module uses a `pattern_type` property for `event_match`
conditions (and `related_event_match`) to mark the condition as matching the
current user's Matrix ID or localpart.
This is leaky to the Client-Server API where a user can successfully set a condition
which provides `pattern_type` instead of `pattern` (note that there's no benefit to
doing this -- the user can just use their own Matrix ID or localpart instead). When
serializing back to the client the `pattern_type` property is converted into a proper
`pattern`.
The following changes are made to avoid this:
* Separate the `KnownCondition::EventMatch` enum value into `EventMatch`
and `EventMatchType`, each with their own expected properties. (Note that a
similar change is made for `RelatedEventMatch`.)
* Make it such that the `pattern_type` variants serialize to the same condition kind,
but cannot be deserialized (since they're only provided by base rules).
* As a final tweak, convert `user_id` vs. `user_localpart` values into an enum.
* Add documentation for caching in a module

Previously if an autodiscovered oEmbed request failed (e.g. the
oEmbed endpoint is down or does not exist) then the entire URL
preview would fail. Instead we now return everything we can, even
if this additional request fails.
Ideally we would replace this with parsing of the Accept header
or something else, but for now just make Synapse spec compliant
by ignoring the unspecced parameter.
It does not seem that this is ever sent by a client, and even if it is
there's a reasonable fallback.

Previously, when creating a join event in /make_join, we would decide
whether to include additional fields to satisfy restricted room checks
based on the current state of the room. Then, when building the event,
we would capture the forward extremities of the room to use as prev
events.
This is subject to race conditions. For example, when leaving and
rejoining a room, the following sequence of events leads to a misleading
403 response:
1. /make_join reads the current state of the room and sees that the user
is still in the room. It decides to omit the field required for
restricted room joins.
2. The leave event is persisted and the room's forward extremities are
updated.
3. /make_join builds the event, using the post-leave forward extremities.
The event then fails the restricted room checks.
To mitigate the race, we move the read of the forward extremities closer
to the read of the current state. Ideally, we would compute the state
based off the chosen prev events, but that can involve state resolution,
which is expensive.

* Fix order of partial state tables when purging
`partial_state_rooms` has an FK on `events` pointing to the join event we
get from `/send_join`, so we must delete from that table before deleting
from `events`.
**NB:** It would be nice to cancel any resync processes for the room
being purged. We do not do this at present. To do so reliably we'd need
an internal HTTP "replication" endpoint, because the worker doing the
resync process may be different to that handling the purge request.
The first time the resync process tries to write data after the deletion
it will fail because we have deleted necessary data e.g. auth
events. AFAICS it will not retry the resync, so the only downside to
not cancelling the resync is a scary-looking traceback.
(This is presumably extremely race-sensitive.)

The per-room account data is no longer unconditionally

Global account data will not be fetched if it will all be

Ensure that the list of servers in a partial state room always contains
the server we joined off.
Also refactor `get_partial_state_servers_at_join` to return `None` when
the given room is no longer partial stated, to explicitly indicate when
the room has partial state. Otherwise it's not clear whether an empty
list means that the room has full state, or the room is partial stated,
but the server we joined off told us that there are no servers in the
room.

Since pyo3-log is initialized very early in the Python start-up
it caches the state of the loggers before they're fully initialized
(and thus are essentially disabled). Whenever we reload the
logging configuration we now also tell pyo3-log to discard
any cached logging configuration it has; it will refetch the
current logging configuration from Python at the next point
it logs.
This fixes Rust log lines not appearing in the homeserver logs.
If a sync request does not need to calculate per-room entries &
is not generating presence & is not generating device list data
(e.g. during initial sync) avoid the expensive calculation of room
specific data.
This is a micro-optimisation for clients syncing simply to receive
to-device information.
This expands the previous optimisation from being only for initial
sync to being for all sync requests.
It also inverts some of the logic to be inclusive instead of exclusive.
The `parse_enum` helper pulls an enum value from the query string
(by delegating down to the parse_string helper with values generated
from the enum).
This is used to pull out "f" and "b" in most places and then we thread
the resulting Direction enum throughout more code.
The previous assumption was that the stream_id column was unique
(for a room ID, receipt type, user ID tuple), but this turned out to be
incorrect.
Now find the max stream ID, then map this back to a database-specific
row identifier and delete other rows which match the (room ID, receipt type,
user ID) tuple, but *not* the row ID.
`run_in_background` calls re-use the current logging context. When they
are not awaited, they can complete after the current logging context has
been marked as finished, which leads to log spam. Use
`run_as_background_process` instead.

migrations would no longer run inside a transaction. However, it

old, correct behaviour. Also make the PostgreSQL behaviour consistent

On startup, the `_device_list_id_gen` stream id generator is initialized
using the maximum stream id seen in a list of tables. When we started
populating the `device_list_remote_pending` table in #13913, we forgot
to add it to the aforementioned list of tables, so the stream id
generator can hand out old stream ids after a restart. The end result is
that Synapse can fail to handle device list update EDUs after a restart
when a partial state join is in progress.

consider when initializing the `_device_list_id_gen` stream id generator.

* Faster joins: Update room stats and user directory on workers when done
When finishing a partial state join to a room, we update the current
state of the room without persisting additional events. Workers receive
notice of the current state update over replication, but neglect to wake
the room stats and user directory updaters, which then get incidentally
triggered the next time an event is persisted or an unrelated event

* Avoid clearing out forward extremities when doing a second remote join
When joining a restricted room where the local homeserver does not have
a user able to issue invites, we perform a second remote join. We want
to avoid clearing out forward extremities in this case because the
forward extremities we have are up to date and clearing out forward
extremities creates a window in which the room can get bricked if
Synapse crashes.

* Do a full join when doing a second remote join into a full state room
We cannot persist a partial state join event into a joined full state
room, so we perform a full state join for such rooms instead. As a

compute or retrieve the full state ourselves if necessary.

Now that we wait for stream positions whenever we do a HTTP replication
hit, we need to be less brutal in the case where we do timeout (as we
have bugs around this).
Currently, we will try to start a new partial state sync every time we
perform a remote join, which is undesirable if there is already one
running for a given room.
We intend to perform remote joins whenever additional local users wish
to join a partial state room, so let's ensure that we do not start more
than one concurrent partial state sync for any given room.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
There is a race condition where the homeserver leaves a room and later
rejoins while the partial state sync from the previous membership is
still running. There is no guarantee that the previous partial state
sync will process the latest join, so we restart it if needed.

Serving partial join responses is no longer experimental. They will only be served under the stable identifier if the the undocumented config flag experimental.msc3706_enabled is set to true.
Synapse continues to request a partial join only if the undocumented config flag experimental.faster_joins is set to true; this setting remains present and unaffected.
We were incorrectly checking if the *local* token had been advanced, rather than the token for the remote instance.
In practice, I don't think this has caused any bugs due to where we use `wait_for_stream_position`, as critically we don't use it on instances that also write to the given streams (and so the local token will lag behind all remote tokens).
When the local homeserver is already joined to a room and wants to
perform another remote join, we may find it useful to do a non-partial
state join if we already have the full state for the room.

When there are many synchronous requests waiting on a
`_PerHostRatelimiter`, each request will be started recursively just
after the previous request has completed. Under the right conditions,
this leads to stack exhaustion.
A common way for requests to become synchronous is when the remote
client disconnects early, because the homeserver is overloaded and slow
to respond.
Avoid stack exhaustion under these conditions by deferring subsequent
requests until the next reactor tick.
Fixes#14480.

It doesn't seem valid that HTML entities should appear in
the title field of oEmbed responses, but a popular WordPress
plug-in seems to do it.
There should not be harm in unescaping these.
This has two related changes:
* It enables fast-path processing for an empty filter (`[]`) which was
previously only used for wildcard not-filters (`["*"]`).
* It special cases a `/sync` filter with no-rooms to skip all room
processing, previously we would partially skip processing, but would
generally still calculate intermediate values for each room which were
then unused.
Future changes might consider further optimizations:
* Skip calculating per-room account data when all rooms are filtered (currently
this is thrown away).
* Make similar improvements to other endpoints which support filters.
* Fixes#12277 :Disable sending confirmation email when 3pid is disabled

PKCE can protect against certain attacks and is enabled by default. Support
can be controlled manually by setting the pkce_method of each oidc_providers
entry to 'auto' (default), 'always', or 'never'.
This is required by Twitter OAuth 2.0 support.
OpenID specifies the format of the user info endpoint and some
OAuth 2.0 IdPs do not follow it, e.g. NextCloud and Twitter.
This adds subject_template and picture_template options to the
default mapping provider for more flexibility in matching those user
info responses.
This creates a new store method, `process_replication_position` that
is called after `process_replication_rows`. By moving stream ID advances
here this guarantees any relevant cache invalidations will have been
applied before the stream is advanced.
This avoids race conditions where Python switches between threads mid
way through processing the `process_replication_rows` method where stream
IDs may be advanced before caches are invalidated due to class resolution
ordering.

if a Synapse deployment upgraded (from < 1.62.0 to >= 1.70.0) then it
is possible for schema deltas to run before background updates causing
drift in the database schema due to:
1. A delta registered a background update to create an index.
2. A delta dropped the above index if it exists (but it yet exist won't since
the background job hasn't run).
3. The code assumed the index was dropped.
To fix this we:
1. Cancel the background update which could create the index.
2. Drop the index again.
3. Drop a related index which is dropped by the background update.
This avoids pulling additional state information (and events) from
the database for each item returned in the hierarchy response.
The room type might be out of date until a background update finishes
running, the worst impact of this would be spaces being treated as rooms
in the hierarchy response. This should self-heal once the background
update finishes.

This change uses ICU (International Components for Unicode) to improve boundary detection in user search.
This change also adds a new dependency on libicu-dev and pkg-config for the Debian packages, which are available in all supported distros.
When Synapse is terminated while running the background update to create
the `receipts_graph` or `receipts_linearized` indexes, the indexes may
be successfully created (or marked as invalid on postgres) while the
background update remains unfinished. When Synapse next starts up, the
background update will fail because the index already exists, or exists
but is invalid on postgres.
Use the existing code to create indices in background updates, since it
handles these edge cases.

Due to the various fixes to the StreamChangeCache it is not
safe to trust the information in the user directory or room/user
stats tables. Rebuild them as background jobs.
In particular see da77720752 (#14639),
and 6a8310f3df (#14435).
Maybe also be related to fac8a38525
(#14592).
An empty cache does not mean the entity has no changed, if
it is earlier than the earliest known stream position return that
the entity *has* changed since the cache cannot accurately
answer that query.
A batch of changes intended to make it easier to trace to-device messages through the system.
The intention here is that a client can set a property org.matrix.msgid in any to-device message it sends. That ID is then included in any tracing or logging related to the message. (Suggestions as to where this field should be documented welcome. I'm not enthusiastic about speccing it - it's very much an optional extra to help with debugging.)
I've also generally improved the data we send to opentracing for these messages.
The internal methods of the StreamChangeCache were inconsistently
treating the earliest known stream position as valid. It is now treated as
invalid, meaning the cache cannot determine if an entity at the earliest
known stream position has changed or not.
Add logic to ClientRestResource to decide whether to mount servlets
or not based on whether the current process is a worker.
This is clearer to see what a worker runs than the completely separate /
copy & pasted list of servlets being mounted for workers.
StreamChangeCache.get_all_changed_entities can return None to signify
it does not have information at the given stream position. Two callers (related
to device lists and presence) were treating this response the same as an empty
list (i.e. there being no updates).

Include the thread_id field when sending read receipts over
federation. This might result in the same user having multiple
read receipts per-room, meaning multiple EDUs must be sent
to encapsulate those receipts.
This restructures the PerDestinationQueue APIs to support
multiple receipt EDUs, queue_read_receipt now becomes linear
time in the number of queued threaded receipts in the room for
the given user, it is expected this is a small number since receipt
EDUs are sent as filler in transactions.
To perform an emulated upsert into a table safely, we must either:
* lock the table,
* be the only writer upserting into the table
* or rely on another unique index being present.
When the 2nd or 3rd cases were applicable, we previously avoided locking
the table as an optimization. However, as seen in #14406, it is easy to
slip up when adding new schema deltas and corrupt the database.
The only time we lock when performing emulated upserts is while waiting
for background updates on postgres. On sqlite, we do no locking at all.
Let's remove the option to skip locking tables, so that we don't shoot
ourselves in the foot again.

Fixes#9357.
This was the last untyped handler from the HomeServer object. Since
it was being treated as Any (and thus unchecked) it was being used
incorrectly in a few places.
When a local device list change is added to
`device_lists_changes_in_room`, the `converted_to_destinations` flag is
set to `FALSE` and the `_handle_new_device_update_async` background
process is started. This background process looks for unconverted rows
in `device_lists_changes_in_room`, copies them to
`device_lists_outbound_pokes` and updates the flag.
To update the `converted_to_destinations` flag, the database performs a
`DELETE` and `INSERT` internally, which fragments the table. To avoid
this, track unconverted rows using a `(stream ID, room ID)` position
instead of the flag.
From now on, the `converted_to_destinations` column indicates rows that
need converting to outbound pokes, but does not indicate whether the
conversion has already taken place.

Remove type hints from comments which have been added
as Python type hints. This helps avoid drift between comments
and reality, as well as removing redundant information.
Also adds some missing type hints which were simple to fill in.
As part of the database migration to support threaded receipts, there is
a possible window in between
`73/08thread_receipts_non_null.sql.postgres` removing the original
unique constraints on `receipts_linearized` and `receipts_graph` and the
`reeipts_linearized_unique_index` and `receipts_graph_unique_index`
background updates from `72/08thread_receipts.sql` completing where
the unique constraints on `receipts_linearized` and `receipts_graph` are
missing. Any emulated upserts on these tables must therefore be
performed with a lock held, otherwise duplicate rows can end up in the
tables when there are concurrent emulated upserts. Fix the missing lock.
Note that emulated upserts no longer happen by default on sqlite, since
the minimum supported version of sqlite supports native upserts by
default now.
Finally, clean up any duplicate receipts that may have crept in before
trying to create the `receipts_graph_unique_index` and
`receipts_linearized_unique_index` unique indexes.

We don't filter state usually, so doing so here is a waste of time. This is not much of an issue for clients that enable lazy loading of members, since there will be fewer state events.
This matches the multi instance writer ID generator class which can
both handle advancing the current token over replication and by calling
the database.
This code was factored out to a method, but also left in-place.
Calling this twice in a row makes no sense: the first call will reduce
the size appropriately, but the loop will immediately exit since the
cache size was already reduced.
PostgreSQL may underestimate the number of distinct `room_id`s in
`event_search`, which can cause it to use table scans for queries for
multiple rooms.
Fix this by setting `n_distinct` on the column.

Synapse 1.76.0 (2023-01-31)
===========================
The 1.76 release is the first to enable faster joins ([MSC3706](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/3706) and [MSC3902](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/3902)) by default. Admins can opt-out: see [the upgrade notes](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/release-v1.76/docs/upgrade.md#faster-joins-are-enabled-by-default) for more details.
The upgrade from 1.75 to 1.76 changes the account data replication streams in a backwards-incompatible manner. Server operators running a multi-worker deployment should consult [the upgrade notes](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/release-v1.76/docs/upgrade.md#changes-to-the-account-data-replication-streams).
Those who are `poetry install`ing from source using our lockfile should ensure their poetry version is 1.3.2 or higher; [see upgrade notes](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/release-v1.76/docs/upgrade.md#minimum-version-of-poetry-is-now-132).
Notes on faster joins
---------------------
The faster joins project sees the most benefit when joining a room with a large number of members (joined or historical). We expect it to be particularly useful for joining large public rooms like the [Matrix HQ](https://matrix.to/#/#matrix:matrix.org) or [Synapse Admins](https://matrix.to/#/#synapse:matrix.org) rooms.
After a faster join, Synapse considers that room "partially joined". In this state, you should be able to
- read incoming messages;
- see incoming state changes, e.g. room topic changes; and
- send messages, if the room is unencrypted.
Synapse has to spend more effort to complete the join in the background. Once this finishes, you will be able to
- send messages, if the room is in encrypted;
- retrieve room history from before your join, if permitted by the room settings; and
- access the full list of room members.
Improved Documentation

This directory contains symlinks to the latest dump of the postgres full schema. This is useful to have, as it allows IDEs to understand our schema and provide autocomplete, linters, inspections, etc.
In particular, the DataGrip functionality in IntelliJ's products seems to only consider files called `*.sql` when defining a schema from DDL; `*.sql.postgres` will be ignored. To get around this we symlink those files to ones ending in `.sql`. We've chosen to ignore the `.sql.sqlite` schema dumps here, as they're not intended for production use (and are much quicker to test against).
## Example

## Caveats
- Doesn't include temporary tables created ad-hoc by Synapse.
- Postgres only. IDEs will likely be confused by SQLite-specific queries.
- Will not include migrations created after the latest schema dump.
- Symlinks might confuse checkouts on Windows systems.
## Instructions

- View -> Tool Windows -> Database

- Pick a name, e.g. `Synapse schema dump`
- Under sources, click `+`.
- Add an entry with Path pointing to this directory, and dialect set to PostgreSQL.
- OK, and OK.
- IDE should now be aware of the schema.
- Try control-clicking on a table name in a bit of SQL e.g. in `_get_forgotten_rooms_for_user_txn`.

## Check the version of poetry with `poetry --version`.
The minimum version of poetry supported by Synapse is 1.2.
The minimum version of poetry supported by Synapse is 1.3.2.
It can also be useful to check the version of `poetry-core` in use. If you've
installed `poetry` with `pipx`, try `pipx runpip poetry list | grep
). So any the erroneous invite should be ignored by fully-joined
homeservers and resolved by the resync for partially-joined homeservers.
In more generality, there are two problems we're worrying about here:
- We might create an event that is valid under our partial state, only to later
find out that is actually invalid according to the full state.
- Or: we might refuse to create an event that is invalid under our partial
state, even though it would be perfectly valid under the full state.
However we expect such problems to be unlikely in practise, because
- We trust that the room has sensible power levels, e.g. that bad actors with
high power levels are demoted before their ban.
- We trust that the resident server provides us up-to-date power levels, join
rules, etc.
- State changes in rooms are relatively infrequent, and the resync period is
relatively quick.
#### Sending out the event over federation
**TODO:** needs prose fleshing out.
Normally: send out in a fed txn to all HSes in the room.
We only know that some HSes were in the room at some point. Wat do.
Send it out to the list of servers from the first join.
**TODO** what do we do here if we have full state?
If the prev event was created by us, we can risk sending it to the wrong HS. (Motivation: privacy concern of the content. Not such a big deal for a public room or an encrypted room. But non-encrypted invite-only...)
But don't want to send out sensitive data in other HS's events in this way.
Suppose we discover after resync that we shouldn't have sent out one our events (not a prev_event) to a target HS. Not much we can do.
What about if we didn't send them an event but shouldn't've?
E.g. what if someone joined from a new HS shortly after you did? We wouldn't talk to them.
Could imagine sending out the "Missed" events after the resync but... painful to work out what they shuld have seen if they joined/left.
Instead, just send them the latest event (if they're still in the room after resync) and let them backfill.(?)
- Don't do this currently.
- If anyone who has received our messages sends a message to a HS we missed, they can backfill our messages
- Gap: rooms which are infrequently used and take a long time to resync.
(Rich was surprised we didn't just create it locally. Answer: to try and avoid
a join which then gets rejected after resync.)
We don't know for sure that any join we create would be accepted.
E.g. the joined user might have been banned; the join rules might have changed in a way that we didn't realise... some way in which the partial state was mistaken.
Instead, do another partial make-join/send-join handshake to confirm that the join works.
- Probably going to get a bunch of duplicate state events and auth events.... but the point of partial joins is that these should be small. Many are already persisted = good.
- What if the second send_join response includes a different list of reisdent HSes? Could ignore it.
- Could even have a special flag that says "just make me a join", i.e. don't bother giving me state or servers in room. Deffo want the auth chain tho.
- SQ: wrt device lists it's a lot safer to ignore it!!!!!
- What if the state at the second join is inconsistent with what we have? Ignore it?

### Leaving (and kicks and bans) after a partial join

[Mastodon](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/) instances provide an [OAuth API](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/spec/oauth/), allowing those instances to be used as a single sign-on provider for Synapse.
The first step is to register Synapse as an application with your Mastodon instance, using the [Create an application API](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/apps/#create) (see also [here](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/client/token/)). There are several ways to do this, but in the example below we are using CURL.
This example assumes that:
* the Mastodon instance website URL is `https://your.mastodon.instance.url`, and
* Synapse will be registered as an app named `my_synapse_app`.
Send the following request, substituting the value of `synapse_public_baseurl` from your Synapse installation.
```sh
curl -d "client_name=my_synapse_app&redirect_uris=https://[synapse_public_baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/callback" -X POST https://your.mastodon.instance.url/api/v1/apps
```
You should receive a response similar to the following. Make sure to save it.
As the Synapse login mechanism needs an attribute to uniquely identify users, and Mastodon's endpoint does not return a `sub` property, an alternative `subject_claim` has to be set. Your Synapse configuration should include the following:
Note that the fields `client_id` and `client_secret` are taken from the CURL response above.
### Shibboleth with OIDC Plugin
[Shibboleth](https://www.shibboleth.net/) is an open Standard IdP solution widely used by Universities.

2. Create a new config on the IdP Side, ensure that the `client_id` and `client_secret`
are randomly generated data.

If your TURN server is behind NAT, the NAT gateway must have an external,
publicly-reachable IP address. `eturnal` tries to autodetect the public IP address,
however, it may also be configured by uncommenting and adjusting this line, so
`eturnal` advertises that address to connecting clients:
```yaml
relay_ipv4_addr: "203.0.113.4" # The server's public IPv4 address.
```
If your NAT gateway is reachable over both IPv4 and IPv6, you may
configure `eturnal` to advertise each available address:
```yaml
relay_ipv4_addr: "203.0.113.4" # The server's public IPv4 address.
relay_ipv6_addr: "2001:db8::4" # The server's public IPv6 address (optional).
```
When advertising an external IPv6 address, ensure that the firewall and
network settings of the system running your TURN server are configured to
accept IPv6 traffic, and that the TURN server is listening on the local
IPv6 address that is mapped by NAT to the external IPv6 address.
1. Logging
If `eturnal` was started by systemd, log files are written into the
`/var/log/eturnal` directory by default. In order to log to the [journal](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-journald.service.html)
instead, the `log_dir` option can be set to `stdout` in the configuration file.
1. Security considerations
Consider your security settings. TURN lets users request a relay which will
connect to arbitrary IP addresses and ports. The following configuration is
suggested as a minimum starting point, [see also the official documentation](https://eturnal.net/documentation/#blacklist):
```yaml
## Reject TURN relaying from/to the following addresses/networks:
blacklist: # This is the default blacklist.
- "127.0.0.0/8" # IPv4 loopback.
- "::1" # IPv6 loopback.
- recommended # Expands to a number of networks recommended to be
# blocked, but includes private networks. Those
# would have to be 'whitelist'ed if eturnal serves
# local clients/peers within such networks.
```
To whitelist IP addresses or specific (private) networks, you need to **add** a
whitelist part into the configuration file, e.g.:
```yaml
whitelist:
- "192.168.0.0/16"
- "203.0.113.113"
- "2001:db8::/64"
```
The more specific, the better.
1. TURNS (TURN via TLS/DTLS)
Also consider supporting TLS/DTLS. To do this, adjust the following settings
in the `eturnal.yml` configuration file (TLS parts should not be commented anymore):
```yaml
listen:
- ip: "::"
port: 3478
transport: udp
- ip: "::"
port: 3478
transport: tcp
- ip: "::"
port: 5349
transport: tls
## TLS certificate/key files (must be readable by 'eturnal' user!):
tls_crt_file: /etc/eturnal/tls/crt.pem
tls_key_file: /etc/eturnal/tls/key.pem
```
In this case, replace the `turn:` schemes in homeserver's `turn_uris` settings
with `turns:`. More is described [here](../../usage/configuration/config_documentation.md#turn_uris).
We recommend that you only try to set up TLS/DTLS once you have set up a
basic installation and got it working.
NB: If your TLS certificate was provided by Let's Encrypt, TLS/DTLS will
not work with any Matrix client that uses Chromium's WebRTC library. This
currently includes Element Android & iOS; for more details, see their
Consider using a ZeroSSL certificate for your TURN server as a working alternative.
1. Firewall
Ensure your firewall allows traffic into the TURN server on the ports
you've configured it to listen on (By default: 3478 and 5349 for TURN
traffic (remember to allow both TCP and UDP traffic), and ports 49152-65535
for the UDP relay.)
1. Reload/ restarting `eturnal`
Changes in the configuration file require `eturnal` to reload/ restart, this
can be achieved by:
```sh
eturnalctl reload
```
`eturnal` performs a configuration check before actually reloading/ restarting
and provides hints, if something is not correctly configured.
### eturnalctl opterations script
`eturnal` offers a handy [operations script](https://eturnal.net/documentation/#Operation)
which can be called e.g. to check, whether the service is up, to restart the service,
to query how many active sessions exist, to change logging behaviour and so on.
Hint: If `eturnalctl` is not part of your `$PATH`, consider either sym-linking it (e.g. ´ln -s /opt/eturnal/bin/eturnalctl /usr/local/bin/eturnalctl´) or call it from the default `eturnal` directory directly: e.g. `/opt/eturnal/bin/eturnalctl info`
@@ -9,222 +9,28 @@ allows the homeserver to generate credentials that are valid for use on the
TURN server through the use of a secret shared between the homeserver and the
TURN server.
The following sections describe how to install [coturn](<https://github.com/coturn/coturn>) (which implements the TURN REST API) and integrate it with synapse.
This documentation provides two TURN server configuration examples:
* [coturn](setup/turn/coturn.md)
* [eturnal](setup/turn/eturnal.md)
## Requirements
For TURN relaying with `coturn` to work, it must be hosted on a server/endpoint with a public IP.
For TURN relaying to work, the TURN service must be hosted on a server/endpoint with a public IP.
Hosting TURN behind NAT requires port forwaring and for the NAT gateway to have a public IP.
However, even with appropriate configuration, NAT is known to cause issues and to often not work.
## `coturn` setup
### Initial installation
The TURN daemon `coturn` is available from a variety of sources such as native package managers, or installation from source.
#### Debian installation
Just install the debian package:
```sh
apt install coturn
```
This will install and start a systemd service called `coturn`.
#### Source installation
1. Download the [latest release](https://github.com/coturn/coturn/releases/latest) from github. Unpack it and `cd` into the directory.
1. Configure it:
```sh
./configure
```
You may need to install `libevent2`: if so, you should do so in
the way recommended by your operating system. You can ignore
warnings about lack of database support: a database is unnecessary
for this purpose.
1. Build and install it:
```sh
make
make install
```
### Configuration
1. Create or edit the config file in `/etc/turnserver.conf`. The relevant
lines, with example values, are:
```
use-auth-secret
static-auth-secret=[your secret key here]
realm=turn.myserver.org
```
See `turnserver.conf` for explanations of the options. One way to generate
the `static-auth-secret` is with `pwgen`:
```sh
pwgen -s 64 1
```
A `realm` must be specified, but its value is somewhat arbitrary. (It is
sent to clients as part of the authentication flow.) It is conventional to
set it to be your server name.
1. You will most likely want to configure coturn to write logs somewhere. The
easiest way is normally to send them to the syslog:
```sh
syslog
```
(in which case, the logs will be available via `journalctl -u coturn` on a
systemd system). Alternatively, coturn can be configured to write to a
logfile - check the example config file supplied with coturn.
1. Consider your security settings. TURN lets users request a relay which will
connect to arbitrary IP addresses and ports. The following configuration is
suggested as a minimum starting point:
```
# VoIP traffic is all UDP. There is no reason to let users connect to arbitrary TCP endpoints via the relay.
no-tcp-relay
# don't let the relay ever try to connect to private IP address ranges within your network (if any)
# given the turn server is likely behind your firewall, remember to include any privileged public IPs too.

# Upgrading to v1.78.0
## Deprecate the `/_synapse/admin/v1/media/<server_name>/delete` admin API
Synapse 1.78.0 replaces the `/_synapse/admin/v1/media/<server_name>/delete`
admin API with an identical endpoint at `/_synapse/admin/v1/media/delete`. Please
update your tooling to use the new endpoint. The deprecated version will be removed
in a future release.
# Upgrading to v1.76.0
## Faster joins are enabled by default
When joining a room for the first time, Synapse 1.76.0 will request a partial join from the other server by default. Previously, server admins had to opt-in to this using an experimental config flag.
Server admins can opt out of this feature for the time being by setting
```yaml
experimental:
faster_joins: false
```
in their server config.
## Changes to the account data replication streams
Synapse has changed the format of the account data and devices replication
streams (between workers). This is a forwards- and backwards-incompatible
change: v1.75 workers cannot process account data replicated by v1.76 workers,
and vice versa.
Once all workers are upgraded to v1.76 (or downgraded to v1.75), account data
and device replication will resume as normal.
## Minimum version of Poetry is now 1.3.2
The minimum supported version of Poetry is now 1.3.2 (previously 1.2.0, [since

# Upgrading to v1.74.0
## Unicode support in user search
This version introduces optional support for an [improved user search dealing with Unicode characters](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/14464).
If you want to take advantage of this feature you need to install PyICU,
the ICU native dependency and its development headers
so that PyICU can build since no prebuilt wheels are available.
You can follow [the PyICU documentation](https://pypi.org/project/PyICU/) to do so,
and then do `pip install matrix-synapse[user-search]` for a PyPI install.
Docker images and Debian packages need nothing specific as they already
include or specify ICU as an explicit dependency.
# Upgrading to v1.73.0
## Legacy Prometheus metric names have now been removed
Synapse v1.69.0 included the deprecation of legacy Prometheus metric names
and offered an option to disable them.
Synapse v1.71.0 disabled legacy Prometheus metric names by default.
This version, v1.73.0, removes those legacy Prometheus metric names entirely.
This also means that the `enable_legacy_metrics` configuration option has been
removed; it will no longer be possible to re-enable the legacy metric names.
If you use metrics and have not yet updated your Grafana dashboard(s),
Prometheus console(s) or alerting rule(s), please consider doing so when upgrading
to this version.
Note that the included Grafana dashboard was updated in v1.72.0 to correct some
metric names which were missed when legacy metrics were disabled by default.

Server admins can configure custom templates for email content. See
[here](../../templates.md) for more information.
This setting has the following sub-options:
* `smtp_host`: The hostname of the outgoing SMTP server to use. Defaults to 'localhost'.
* `smtp_port`: The port on the mail server for outgoing SMTP. Defaults to 465 if `force_tls` is true, else 25.
_Changed in Synapse 1.64.0:_ the default port is now aware of `force_tls`.
* `smtp_user` and `smtp_pass`: Username/password for authentication to the SMTP server. By default, no
authentication is attempted.
* `force_tls`: By default, Synapse connects over plain text and then optionally upgrades
to TLS via STARTTLS. If this option is set to true, TLS is used from the start (Implicit TLS),
and the option `require_transport_security` is ignored.
It is recommended to enable this if supported by your mail server.
_New in Synapse 1.64.0._
* `require_transport_security`: Set to true to require TLS transport security for SMTP.
By default, Synapse will connect over plain text, and will then switch to
TLS via STARTTLS *if the SMTP server supports it*. If this option is set,
Synapse will refuse to connect unless the server supports STARTTLS.
* `enable_tls`: By default, if the server supports TLS, it will be used, and the server
must present a certificate that is valid for 'smtp_host'. If this option
is set to false, TLS will not be used.
* `notif_from`: defines the "From" address to use when sending emails.
It must be set if email sending is enabled. The placeholder '%(app)s' will be replaced by the application name,
which is normally set in `app_name`, but may be overridden by the
Matrix client application. Note that the placeholder must be written '%(app)s', including the
trailing 's'.
* `app_name`: `app_name` defines the default value for '%(app)s' in `notif_from` and email
subjects. It defaults to 'Matrix'.
* `enable_notifs`: Set to true to enable sending emails for messages that the user
has missed. Disabled by default.
* `notif_for_new_users`: Set to false to disable automatic subscription to email
notifications for new users. Enabled by default.
* `client_base_url`: Custom URL for client links within the email notifications. By default
links will be based on "https://matrix.to". (This setting used to be called `riot_base_url`;
the old name is still supported for backwards-compatibility but is now deprecated.)
* `validation_token_lifetime`: Configures the time that a validation email will expire after sending.
Defaults to 1h.
* `invite_client_location`: The web client location to direct users to during an invite. This is passed
to the identity server as the `org.matrix.web_client_location` key. Defaults
to unset, giving no guidance to the identity server.
* `subjects`: Subjects to use when sending emails from Synapse. The placeholder '%(app)s' will
be replaced with the value of the `app_name` setting, or by a value dictated by the Matrix client application.
In addition, each subject can use the following placeholders: '%(person)s', which will be replaced by the displayname
of the user(s) that sent the message(s), e.g. "Alice and Bob", and '%(room)s', which will be replaced by the name of the room the
message(s) have been sent to, e.g. "My super room". In addition, emails related to account administration will
can use the '%(server_name)s' placeholder, which will be replaced by the value of the
`server_name` setting in your Synapse configuration.
Here is a list of subjects for notification emails that can be set:
* `message_from_person_in_room`: Subject to use to notify about one message from one or more user(s) in a
room which has a name. Defaults to "[%(app)s] You have a message on %(app)s from %(person)s in the %(room)s room..."
* `message_from_person`: Subject to use to notify about one message from one or more user(s) in a
room which doesn't have a name. Defaults to "[%(app)s] You have a message on %(app)s from %(person)s..."
* `messages_from_person`: Subject to use to notify about multiple messages from one or more users in
a room which doesn't have a name. Defaults to "[%(app)s] You have messages on %(app)s from %(person)s..."
* `messages_in_room`: Subject to use to notify about multiple messages in a room which has a
name. Defaults to "[%(app)s] You have messages on %(app)s in the %(room)s room..."
* `messages_in_room_and_others`: Subject to use to notify about multiple messages in multiple rooms.
Defaults to "[%(app)s] You have messages on %(app)s in the %(room)s room and others..."
* `messages_from_person_and_others`: Subject to use to notify about multiple messages from multiple persons in
multiple rooms. This is similar to the setting above except it's used when
the room in which the notification was triggered has no name. Defaults to
"[%(app)s] You have messages on %(app)s from %(person)s and others..."
* `invite_from_person_to_room`: Subject to use to notify about an invite to a room which has a name.
Defaults to "[%(app)s] %(person)s has invited you to join the %(room)s room on %(app)s..."
* `invite_from_person`: Subject to use to notify about an invite to a room which doesn't have a
name. Defaults to "[%(app)s] %(person)s has invited you to chat on %(app)s..."
* `password_reset`: Subject to use when sending a password reset email. Defaults to "[%(server_name)s] Password reset"
* `email_validation`: Subject to use when sending a verification email to assert an address's
ownership. Defaults to "[%(server_name)s] Validate your email"
email_validation: "[%(server_name)s] Validate your email"
