This is a refactor of the federation destination queues.
It fixes a few things, namely:
- actually retry outgoing events with backoff behaviour
- obtain enough events from the database to fill messages as much as
possible
- minimize the amount of running goroutines
- use pure timers for backoff
- don't restart queue unless necessary
- close the background task when backing off
- increase max edus in a transaction to match the spec
- cleanup timers more aggresively to reduce memory usage
- add jitter to backoff timers to reduce resource spikes
- add a bunch of tests (with real and fake databases) to ensure
everything is working
This fixes some edge cases where federation queue backoffs and
blacklisting weren't behaving as expected.
It also adds new tests for the federation queues to ensure their
behaviour continues to work correctly.
* Fix flakey sytest 'Local device key changes get to remote servers'
* Debug logs
* Remove internal/test and use /test only
Remove a lot of ancient code too.
* Use FederationRoomserverAPI in more places
* Use more interfaces in federationapi; begin adding regression test
* Linting
* Add regression test
* Unbreak tests
* ALL THE LOGS
* Fix a race condition which could cause events to not be sent to servers
If a new room event which rewrites state arrives, we remove all joined hosts
then re-calculate them. This wasn't done in a transaction so for a brief period
we would have no joined hosts. During this interim, key change events which arrive
would not be sent to destination servers. This would sporadically fail on sytest.
* Unbreak new tests
* Linting
* Initial federation sender -> federation API refactoring
* Move base into own package, avoids import cycle
* Fix build errors
* Fix tests
* Add signing key server tables
* Try to fold signing key server into federation API
* Fix dendritejs builds
* Update embedded interfaces
* Fix panic, fix lint error
* Update configs, docker
* Rename some things
* Reuse same keyring on the implementing side
* Fix federation tests, `NewBaseDendrite` can accept freeform options
* Fix build
* Update create_db, configs
* Name tables back
* Don't rename federationsender consumer for now
