* Move ActivityPub::FetchRemoteAccountService to ActivityPub::FetchRemoteActorService
ActivityPub::FetchRemoteAccountService is kept as a wrapper for when the actor is
specifically required to be an Account
* Refactor SignatureVerification to allow non-Account actors
* fixup! Move ActivityPub::FetchRemoteAccountService to ActivityPub::FetchRemoteActorService
* Refactor ActivityPub::FetchRemoteKeyService to potentially return non-Account actors
* Refactor inbound ActivityPub payload processing to accept non-Account actors
* Refactor inbound ActivityPub processing to accept activities relayed through non-Account
* Refactor how Account key URIs are built
* Refactor Request and drop unused key_id_format parameter
* Rename ActivityPub::Dereferencer `signature_account` to `signature_actor`
* Fix followers synchronization mechanism not working when URI has empty path
To my knowledge, there is no current implementation on the fediverse
that can use bare domains (e.g., actor is at https://example.org instead of
something like https://example.org/actor) that also plans to support the
followers synchronization mechanism. However, Mastodon's current implementation
would exclude such accounts from followers list.
Also adds tests and rename them to reflect the proper method names.
* Move url prefix regexp to its own constant
* Add support for followers synchronization on the receiving end
Check the `collectionSynchronization` attribute on `Create` and `Announce`
activities and synchronize followers from provided collection if possible.
* Add tests for followers synchronization on the receiving end
* Add support for follower synchronization on the sender's end
* Add tests for the sending end
* Switch from AS attributes to HTTP header
Replace the custom `collectionSynchronization` ActivityStreams attribute by
an HTTP header (`X-AS-Collection-Synchronization`) with the same syntax as
the `Signature` header and the following fields:
- `collectionId` to specify which collection to synchronize
- `digest` for the SHA256 hex-digest of the list of followers known on the
receiving instance (where “receiving instance” is determined by accounts
sharing the same host name for their ActivityPub actor `id`)
- `url` of a collection that should be fetched by the instance actor
Internally, move away from the webfinger-based `domain` attribute and use
account `uri` prefix to group accounts.
* Add environment variable to disable followers synchronization
Since the whole mechanism relies on some new preconditions that, in some
extremely rare cases, might not be met, add an environment variable
(DISABLE_FOLLOWERS_SYNCHRONIZATION) to disable the mechanism altogether and
avoid followers being incorrectly removed.
The current conditions are:
1. all managed accounts' actor `id` and inbox URL have the same URI scheme and
netloc.
2. all accounts whose actor `id` or inbox URL share the same URI scheme and
netloc as a managed account must be managed by the same Mastodon instance
as well.
As far as Mastodon is concerned, breaking those preconditions require extensive
configuration changes in the reverse proxy and might also cause other issues.
Therefore, this environment variable provides a way out for people with highly
unusual configurations, and can be safely ignored for the overwhelming majority
of Mastodon administrators.
* Only set follower synchronization header on non-public statuses
This is to avoid unnecessary computations and allow Follow-related
activities to be handled by the usual codepath instead of going through
the synchronization mechanism (otherwise, any Follow/Undo/Accept activity
would trigger the synchronization mechanism even if processing the activity
itself would be enough to re-introduce synchronization)
* Change how ActivityPub::SynchronizeFollowersService handles follow requests
If the remote lists a local follower which we only know has sent a follow
request, consider the follow request as accepted instead of sending an Undo.
* Integrate review feeback
- rename X-AS-Collection-Synchronization to Collection-Synchronization
- various minor refactoring and code style changes
* Only select required fields when computing followers_hash
* Use actor URI rather than webfinger domain in synchronization endpoint
* Change hash computation to be a XOR of individual hashes
Makes it much easier to be memory-efficient, and avoid sorting discrepancy issues.
* Marginally improve followers_hash computation speed
* Further improve hash computation performances by using pluck_each
* Add request pool to improve delivery performance
Fix#7909
* Ensure connection is closed when exception interrupts execution
* Remove Timeout#timeout from socket connection
* Fix infinite retrial loop on HTTP::ConnectionError
* Close sockets on failure, reduce idle time to 90 seconds
* Add MAX_REQUEST_POOL_SIZE option to limit concurrent connections to the same server
* Use a shared pool size, 512 by default, to stay below open file limit
* Add some tests
* Add more tests
* Reduce MAX_IDLE_TIME from 90 to 30 seconds, reap every 30 seconds
* Use a shared pool that returns preferred connection but re-purposes other ones when needed
* Fix wrong connection being returned on subsequent calls within the same thread
* Reduce mutex calls on flushes from 2 to 1 and add test for reaping
HTTP 401 responses returned by Mastodon's inbox controller may
be temporary if, for instance, the requesting user's actor/key json
could not be retrieved in a timely fashion. This changes allow retries
instead of dropping the message entirely.
Also added HTTP 408 as that error is by nature temporary.
* If an Update is signed with known key, skip re-following procedure
Because it means the remote actor did *not* lose their database
* Add CLI method for rotating keys
bin/tootctl accounts rotate [USERNAME]
Generates a new RSA key per account and sends out an Update activity
signed with the old key.
* Key rotation: Space out Update fan-outs every 5 minutes per 1000 accounts
* Skip suspended accounts in key rotation
* Do not raise delivery failure on 4xx errors, increase stoplight threshold
Stoplight failure threshold from 3 to 10
Status code 429 will raise a failure/get retried
* Oops
HTTP connections must be explicitly closed in many cases, and letting
perform method close connections makes its callers less redundant and
prevent them from forgetting to close connections.
Currently, Mastodon will retry delivering toots for a bit over 1 hour.
This is a very short timespan when considering private and direct toots, which
cannot be seen by the recipient at all after the delivery attempts have failed.
Ideally, private and direct toots should have a different number of retries,
but I do not know how to do that.
