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.
Using web_public_guest for anonymous users is confusing since
'guest' is actually a logged-in user compared to
web_public_guest which is not logged-in and has only
read access to messages. So, we rename it to
web_public_visitor.
We should eventually add templating for the set of hosts here, but
it's worth merging this change to remove the deleted hostname and
replace it with the current one.
This is a more thorough test of adding multiple
streams for multiple users, including streams
that users have already subscribed to.
The extra queries here are due to the fact
that we call `principal_to_user_profile` in
a loop in the view. So that's an example
of O(N) overhead. We may be able to bulk-fetch
these users eventually.
This is a pure extraction, except that I remove a
redundant check that `len(principals) > 0`. Whenever
that value is false, then `new_subscriptions` will
only have one possible entry, which is the current
user, and we skip that in the loop.
We no longer do O(N) queries to get existing streams.
This is a somewhat contrived use case--generally, we
are not trying to re-subscribe a user to several
streams. Still, we want to avoid this.
This commit also makes `test_bulk_subscribe_many`
do more work, and the change to the test helped
me discover this bug.
If a user asks to be subscribed to a stream
that they are already subscribed to, then
that stream won't be in new_stream_user_ids,
and we won't need to send an event for it.
This change makes that happen more automatically.
Let
U = number of users to subscribe
S = number of streams to subscribe
We were technically doing N^3 amount of work
when we sent certain events, or to be more
precise, U * S * S amount of work. For each
stream, we were looping through a list of tuples
of size U * S to find the users for the stream.
In practice either U or S is usually 1, so the
performance gains here are probably negligible,
especially since the constant factors here
were just slinging around Python data.
But the code is actually more readable now, so
it's a double win.
We rename needs_new_sub (which sounds like
a boolean!) to new_recipient_ids, and we
calculate it explicitly within the loop, so
that we don't need to worry as much about
subsequent passes through the loop mutating it.
This allows us to also remove recipient_ids,
which in turn lets us remove recipients_map,
albeit with a small tweak for stream_map.
I also introduce the my_subs local, which
I use to more directly populate used_colors,
as well as using it as the loop var.
I think it's important that the callers understand
that bulk_add_subscriptions assumes all streams
are being created within a single realm, so I make
it an explicit parameter.
This may be overkill--I would also be happy if we
just included the assertions from this commit.
This function now does all the work that we used
to do with notify_subscriptions_added happening
inside a loop.
There's a small fine-tuning here, where we only
get recent traffic on streams that we're actually
sending events for.
We now just pass in all_subscribers_by_stream, rather
than a callback.
We also move sub_tuples_by_user closer to the
loop where we call notify_subscriptions_added.
Disabled on webservers in 047817b6b0, it has since lingered in
configuration, as well as running (to no effect) every minute on the
loadbalancer.
Remove the vestiges of its configuration.
This banner shows on lb1, advertising itself as lb0. There is no
compelling reason for a custom motd, especially one which needs to
be reconfigured for each host.
This shows the normal popover instead of extended profile.
We use the standard event handler attached to the body element in
`popovers.js` instead of attaching a new one.
Since the denmark stream stub has subscribed = true,
we include the current user id in it's subscribers set.
We remove user `me` from sweden stream stub for the same
reason.
