As per https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1865837/ location.href
should be preferred to location.replace in some places due to the
fact that location.replace violates browser history and breaks back key.
Let the callers access stream.recipient as needed.
It costs the same, and some of the callers can
actually stop caring about the actual Recipient
object.
We already trust ids that are put on our queue
for deferred work. For example, see the code for
"mark_stream_messages_as_read_for_everyone"
We now pass stream_recipient_id when we queue
up work for do_mark_stream_messages_as_read.
This generally saves about 3 queries per
user when we unsubscribe them from a stream.
We get two speedups:
* The query to get existing subscribers only
gets the two fields we need. We no longer
need all the overhead of user_profile
and recipient data being returned in the
query.
* We avoid Django making extra hops to the
database to get user info.
Because the command is part of a pipe sequence, the exitcode defaults
to the last in the sequence, which is not the most important one here.
Set pipefail, which sets the exit status to the exit code of the last
program in the sequence to exit non-zero, or 0 if all succeeded. This
prevents the upgrade from barreling onward and setting
`postgres.version` improperly if the database upgrade step failed.
Use https://github.com/stripe/smokescreen to provide a server for an
outgoing proxy, run under supervisor. This will allow centralized
blocking of internal metadata IPs, localhost, and so forth, as well as
providing default request timeouts (10s by default).
Previously, the transaction.atomic() was not properly scoped to ensure
that RealmAuditLog entries were created in the same transaction,
making it possible for state changes to not be properly recorded in
RealmAuditLog.
When apps like mobile register for "streams", we
will now just use active streams as our baseline,
rather than "occupied" streams.
This means we will send a stream that is active,
even if it happens to have zero occupants. It's
actually pretty rare that a stream has zero occupants,
and it's not exactly clear that we want to exclude
a non-occupied but otherwise active stream from
our list of streams.
It also happens to be fairly expensive to compute
whether a stream is occupied.
This change only affects API clients (including
possibly our mobile app). The main webapp never
used the data from this codepath.
We replace get_peer_user_ids_for_stream_change
with two bulk functions to get peers and/or
subscribers.
Note that we have three codepaths that care about
peers:
subscribing existing users:
we need to tell peers about new subscribers
we need to tell subscribed user about old subscribers
unsubscribing existing users:
we only need to tell peers who unsubscribed
subscribing new user:
we only need to tell peers about the new user
(right now we generate send_event
calls to tell the new user about existing
subscribers, but this is a waste
of effort that we will fix soon)
The two bulk functions are this:
bulk_get_subscriber_peer_info
bulk_get_peers
They have some overlap in the implementation,
but there are some nuanced differences that are
described in the comments.
Looking up peers/subscribers in bulk leads to some
nice optimizations.
We will save some memchached traffic if you are
subscribing to multiple public streams.
We will save a query in the remove-subscriber
case if you are only dealing with private streams.
Installing an updated linux kernel package, as can happen during the
`apt dist-upgrade` done by the installer, can cause grub to pop up a
prompt to update its configuration file. In an unattended headless
configuration, this will stop the installation.
Explicitly configure apt to be non-interactive, and prefer the newest
configuration, during the install.
This will ensure that we always fully execute the database part of
modifying subscription objects. In particular, this should prevent
invariant failures like #16347 where Subscription objects were created
without corresponding RealmAuditLog entries.
Fixes#16347.
We don't need the select_related('user_profile')
optimization any more, because we just keep
track of user info in our own data structures.
In this codepath we are never actually modifying
users; we just occasionally need their ids or
emails.
This can be a pretty substantive improvement if
you are adding a bunch of users to a stream
who each have a bunch of their own subscriptions.
We could also limit the number of full rows in this
query by adding an extra hop to the DB just to
get colors (using values_list), and then only get
full sub info for the streams that we're adding, rather
than getting every single subscription, in full, for each user.
Apart from finding what colors the user has already
used, the only other reason we need all the columns
in Subscription here is to handle streams that
need to be reactivated. Otherwise we could do
only("id", "active", "recipient_id", "user_profile_id")
or similar. Fortunately, Subscription isn't
an overly wide table; it's mostly bool fields.
But by far the biggest thing to avoid is bringing
in all the extra user_profile data.
We have pretty good coverage on query counts here,
so I think this fix is pretty low risk.
This class removes a lot of the annoying tuples
we were passing around.
Also, by including the user everywhere, which
is easily available to us when we make instances
of SubInfo, it sets the stage to remove
select_related('user_profile').
We used to send occupy/vacate events when
either the first person entered a stream
or the last person exited.
It appears that our two main apps have never
looked at these events. Instead, it's
generally the case that clients handle
events related to stream creation/deactivation
and subscribe/unsubscribe.
Note that we removed the apply_events code
related to these events. This doesn't affect
the webapp, because the webapp doesn't care
about the "streams" field in do_events_register.
There is a theoretical situation where a
third party client could be the victim of
a race where the "streams" data includes
a stream where the last subscriber has left.
I suspect in most of those situations it
will be harmless, or possibly even helpful
to the extent that they'll learn about
streams that are in a "quasi" state where
they're activated but not occupied.
We could try to patch apply_event to
detect when subscriptions get added
or removed. Or we could just make the
"streams" piece of do_events_register
not care about occupy/vacate semantics.
I favor the latter, since it might
actually be what users what, and it will
also simplify the code and improve
performance.
The query to get "occupied" streams has been expensive
in the past. I'm not sure how much any recent attempts
to optimize that query have mitigated the issue, but
since we clearly aren't sending this data, there is no
reason to compute it.
