Part of #16289, before fixing them we need to refactor some code first.

Twisted trunk makes a change to the TLSMemoryBIOFactory where the underlying protocol is changed from TLSMemoryBIOProtocol to BufferingTLSTransport to improve performance of TLS code (see twisted/twisted#11989). In order to properly hook up this code we need to modify some of our test code to pass the test reactor's clock into TLSMemoryBIOFactory such that the global (trial) reactor isn't used by default.

This is all rather annoying, especially when attempting to maintain compatible with older Twisted versions.

See https://github.com/twisted/twisted/pull/11996/files#diff-9d27cdf01b21540c6ef350193a9d44b88a3d2b322f3fbc08b95cdaac8fd50ed6R871-R874 for where Twisted does this in its own tests.

Did Twisted make a breaking change to TLSMemoryBIOFactory here, or are we just taking advantage of a newer API?

(I can't see anything in https://github.com/twisted/twisted/blob/trunk/NEWS.rst#deprecations-and-removals so assuming we're using a newer API.)

It isn't a breaking change, you don't have to provide clock, but you do if you want our tests to pass. (Otherwise it uses the trial reactor instead of the test reactor.)

Looks sane, but I don't understand what exactly was failing and why on Twisted trunk. Could you spell it out for me?

Oh, I think I see: twisted/twisted#11996 made speedups in twisted. But as a consequence of how they did so, their tests now need to pass in a Clock explicitly. We need to do the same.

I attempted to add more info to the description, I'm not sure it is enough though.

Thanks! I think I was confused because the version check we added made me think there was a behaviour change in 23.8.0, rather than in twisted trunk.

There's no released version so I had to do checks against the currently released version (and hope there's no 23.8.x release.... but I find that unlikely).

Looks like the patching is causing issues... maybe a memory leak?

I kicked off a run without the patching: https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/actions/runs/6626203043

Looks like the tests do fail without this change, I wonder if they pass on the commit before?

This passed, but fails on older Twisteds, I think we should just not patch older ones then? 🤷

# test to patch over it.

# Use create=True for backwards compatibilty with Twisted <= 23.8.0.

It feels janky that we check > here and <= to above... as if there is at 23.8.x then it'll enable one bit of code and not the other.

It sounds like a Twisted 23.1x.0 will be out soon-ish though.

I can use >= 23.10.0 if we want (in both places), but it'll fail until the release is out.

I think 23.8 is fine, just a note for completeness.

Tests passed here, now let's see if they pass on Twisted Trunk: https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/actions/runs/6628632702

Is passing in an explicit sanlist here a meaningful change?

No: _wrap_server_factory_for_tls defaulted to this if no sanlist argument was provided.
