==============================

Features
--------

- Stable support for [MSC3882](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/3882) to allow an existing device/session to generate a login token for use on a new device/session. ([\#15388](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15388))
- Support resolving a room's [canonical alias](https://spec.matrix.org/v1.7/client-server-api/#mroomcanonical_alias) via the module API. ([\#15450](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15450))
- Enable support for [MSC3952](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/3952): intentional mentions. ([\#15520](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15520))
- Experimental [MSC3861](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/3861) support: delegate auth to an OIDC provider. ([\#15582](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15582))
- Add Synapse version deploy annotations to Grafana dashboard which enables easy correlation between behavior changes witnessed in a graph to a certain Synapse version and nail down regressions. ([\#15674](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15674))
- Add a catch-all * to the supported relation types when redacting an event and its related events. This is an update to [MSC3912](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/3861) implementation. ([\#15705](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15705))
- Speed up `/messages` by backfilling in the background when there are no backward extremities where we are directly paginating. ([\#15710](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15710))
- Expose a metric reporting the database background update status. ([\#15740](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15740))

Bugfixes
--------

- Correctly clear caches when we delete a room. ([\#15609](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15609))
- Check permissions for enabling encryption earlier during room creation to avoid creating broken rooms. ([\#15695](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15695))

Improved Documentation
----------------------

- Simplify query to find participating servers in a room. ([\#15732](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15732))

Internal Changes
----------------

- Allow for the configuration of max request retries and min/max retry delays in the matrix federation client. ([\#12504](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12504))
- Log when events are (maybe unexpectedly) filtered out of responses in tests. ([\#14213](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14213))
- Read from column `full_user_id` rather than `user_id` of tables `profiles` and `user_filters`. ([\#15649](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15649))
- Add support for tracing functions which return `Awaitable`s. ([\#15650](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15650))
- Cache requests for user's devices over federation. ([\#15675](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15675))
- Add fully qualified docker image names to Dockerfiles. ([\#15689](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15689))
- Remove some unused code. ([\#15690](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15690))
- Improve type hints. ([\#15694](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15694), [\#15697](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15697))
- Update docstring and traces on `maybe_backfill()` functions. ([\#15709](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15709))
- Add context for when/why to use the `long_retries` option when sending Federation requests. ([\#15721](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15721))
- Removed some unused fields. ([\#15723](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15723))
- Update federation error to more plainly explain we can only authorize our own membership events. ([\#15725](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15725))
- Prevent the `latest_deps` and `twisted_trunk` daily GitHub Actions workflows from running on forks of the codebase. ([\#15726](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15726))
- Improve performance of user directory search. ([\#15729](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15729))
- Remove redundant table join with `room_memberships` when doing a `is_host_joined()`/`is_host_invited()` call (`membership` is already part of the `current_state_events`). ([\#15731](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15731))
