Kegan Dougal be8543a21a add extensions for typing and receipts; bugfixes and additional perf improvements
Features:
 - Add `typing` extension.
 - Add `receipts` extension.
 - Add comprehensive prometheus `/metrics` activated via `SYNCV3_PROM`.
 - Add `SYNCV3_PPROF` support.
 - Add `by_notification_level` sort order.
 - Add `include_old_rooms` support.
 - Add support for `$ME` and `$LAZY`.
 - Add correct filtering when `*,*` is used as `required_state`.
 - Add `num_live` to each room response to indicate how many timeline entries are live.

Bug fixes:
 - Use a stricter comparison function on ranges: fixes an issue whereby UTs fail on go1.19 due to change in sorting algorithm.
 - Send back an `errcode` on HTTP errors (e.g expired sessions).
 - Remove `unsigned.txn_id` on insertion into the DB. Otherwise other users would see other users txn IDs :(
 - Improve range delta algorithm: previously it didn't handle cases like `[0,20] -> [20,30]` and would panic.
 - Send HTTP 400 for invalid range requests.
 - Don't publish no-op unread counts which just adds extra noise.
 - Fix leaking DB connections which could eventually consume all available connections.
 - Ensure we always unblock WaitUntilInitialSync even on invalid access tokens. Other code relies on WaitUntilInitialSync() actually returning at _some_ point e.g on startup we have N workers which bound the number of concurrent pollers made at any one time, we need to not just hog a worker forever.

Improvements:
 - Greatly improve startup times of sync3 handlers by improving `JoinedRoomsTracker`: a modest amount of data would take ~28s to create the handler, now it takes 4s.
 - Massively improve initial initial v3 sync times, by refactoring `JoinedRoomsTracker`, from ~47s to <1s.
 - Add `SlidingSyncUntil...` in tests to reduce races.
 - Tweak the API shape of JoinedUsersForRoom to reduce state block processing time for large rooms from 63s to 39s.
 - Add trace task for initial syncs.
 - Include the proxy version in UA strings.
 - HTTP errors now wait 1s before returning to stop clients tight-looping on error.
 - Pending event buffer is now 2000.
 - Index the room ID first to cull the most events when returning timeline entries. Speeds up `SelectLatestEventsBetween` by a factor of 8.
 - Remove cancelled `m.room_key_requests` from the to-device inbox. Cuts down the amount of events in the inbox by ~94% for very large (20k+) inboxes, ~50% for moderate sized (200 events) inboxes. Adds book-keeping to remember the unacked to-device position for each client.

GitHub branch checks state

sync-v3

Run an experimental sync v3 server using an existing Matrix account. This is possible because, for the most part, v3 sync is a strict subset of v2 sync.

An implementation of MSC3575.

Proxy version to MSC API specification:

  • Version 0.1.x: 2022/04/01
    • First release
  • Version 0.2.x: 2022/06/09
    • Reworked where lists and ops are situated in the response JSON. Added new filters like room_name_like. Added slow_get_all_rooms. Standardised on env vars for configuring the proxy. Persist access tokens, encrypted with SYNCV3_SECRET.
  • Version 0.3.x: 2022/08/05
    • Spaces support, txn_id support.
  • Version 0.4.x 2022/08/23
    • Support for tags and not_tags.

Usage

Requires Postgres 13+.

$ createdb syncv3
$ echo -n "$(openssl rand -hex 32)" > .secret # this MUST remain the same throughout the lifetime of the database created above.
$ go build ./cmd/syncv3
$ SYNCV3_SECRET=$(cat .secret) SYNCV3_SERVER="https://matrix-client.matrix.org" SYNCV3_DB="user=$(whoami) dbname=syncv3 sslmode=disable" SYNCV3_BINDADDR=0.0.0.0:8008 ./syncv3

Then visit http://localhost:8008/client/ (with trailing slash) and paste in the access_token for any account on -server.

When you hit the Sync button nothing will happen initially, but you should see:

INF Poller: v2 poll loop started ip=::1 since= user_id=@kegan:matrix.org

Wait for the first initial v2 sync to be processed (this can take minutes!) and then v3 APIs will be responsive.

How can I help?

At present, the best way to help would be to run a local v3 server pointed at a busy account and just leave it and a client running in the background. Look at it occasionally and submit any issues you notice. You can save console logs by right-clicking -> Save As.

Please run the server with SYNCV3_DEBUG=1 set. This will force the server to panic when assertions fail rather than just log them.
