This adds more configuration to cargo-deny so that the output is not a
giant list of warnings hiding new entries. Instead the config now
lists the things that would emit warnings. It also adds -Dwarnings to
the CI job so that new warnings will be cleaned up: they can be added
to the config easily to fix the warnings.
We do not make all transactions
[IMMEDIATE](https://www.sqlite.org/lang_transaction.html#deferred_immediate_and_exclusive_transactions)
for more parallelism -- at least read transactions can be made DEFERRED to run in parallel
w/o any drawbacks. But if we make write transactions DEFERRED also w/o any external locking,
then they are upgraded from read to write ones on the first write statement. This has some
drawbacks:
- If there are other write transactions, we block the thread and the db connection until
upgraded. Also if some reader comes then, it has to get next, less used connection with a
worse per-connection page cache.
- If a transaction is blocked for more than busy_timeout, it fails with SQLITE_BUSY.
- Configuring busy_timeout is not the best way to manage transaction timeouts, we would
prefer it to be integrated with Rust/tokio asyncs. Moreover, SQLite implements waiting
using sleeps.
- If upon a successful upgrade to a write transaction the db has been modified by another
one, the transaction has to be rolled back and retried. It is an extra work in terms of
CPU/battery.
- Maybe minor, but we lose some fairness in servicing write transactions, i.e. we service
them in the order of the first write statement, not in the order they come.
The only pro of making write transactions DEFERRED w/o the external locking is some
parallelism between them. Also we have an option to make write transactions IMMEDIATE, also
w/o the external locking. But then the most of cons above are still valid. Instead, if we
perform all write transactions under an async mutex, the only cons is losing some
parallelism for write transactions.
scripts/update-provider-database.sh checks out the provider database
and updates data.rs file,
making it easier to update.
CI uses this script to check that checked in data.rs
corresponds to the provider database repository.
the slowest test was `test_modify_chat_disordered`;
due to several sleep(), it lasts at least 11 seconds.
however, many of the sleep() are not needed and were added
just to get things done that time.
this pr removes 7 superfluous sleeps,
making the test finish in about 3 seconds,
so that this test is no longer the bottleneck when running
`cargo test` on fast machines.
(this is not only useful to safe some seconds -
but also to notice degradations as of
https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-core-rust/issues/4051#issuecomment-1436995166 )
Although it does a little for security, it will help to protect from unwanted server-side
modifications and bugs. And now we have a time to test "multipart/signed" messages compatibility
with other MUAs.
This makes DC compatible with "multipart/signed" messages thus allowing switching to them someday
from the current "multipart/mixed" unencrypted message format.
try_decrypt() is a CPU-bound task.
When called from async function,
it should be wrapped in tokio::task::spawn_blocking().
Using tokio::task::spawn_blocking() is difficult here
because of &mail, &private_keyring and &public_keyring borrows,
so we should at least use tokio::task::block_in_place()
to avoid blocking the executor.
Previously we used tags like "1.109.0" and "py-1.109.0".
Since Python bindings are always released
at the same time as the core,
it is easier to use a single tag for them.
"v" prefix is added to make matching by "v*" easier
in CI and scripts.
