#8567 started a span for every background process. This is good as it means all Synapse code that gets run should be in a span (unless in the sentinel logging context), but it means we generate about 15x the number of spans as we did previously.
This PR attempts to reduce that number by a) not starting one for send commands to Redis, and b) deferring starting background processes until after we're sure they're necessary.
I don't really know how much this will help.
The CI appears to use the latest version of isort, which is a problem when isort gets a major version bump. Rather than try to pin the version, I've done the necessary to make isort5 happy with synapse.
This is primarily for allowing us to send those commands from workers, but for now simply allows us to ignore echoed RDATA/POSITION commands that we sent (we get echoes of sent commands when using redis). Currently we log a WARNING on the master process every time we receive an echoed RDATA.
Propagate opentracing contexts across workers
Also includes some Convenience modifications to opentracing for servlets, notably:
- Add boolean to skip the whitelisting check on inject
extract methods. - useful when injecting into carriers
locally. Otherwise we'd always have to include our
own servername and whitelist our servername
- start_active_span_from_request instead of header
- Add boolean to decide whether to extract context
from a request to a servlet
* Add decerators for tracing functions
* Use the new clean contexts
* Context and edu utils
* Move opentracing setters
* Move whitelisting
* Sectioning comments
* Better args wrapper
* Docstrings

* Remove unused methods.
* Don't use global
* One tracing decorator to rule them all.
* Opentracing survival guide
* Update decorator names in doc
* Doc cleanup
These are all alterations as a result of comments in #5703, it
includes mostly typos and clarifications. The most interesting
changes are:
- Split developer and user docs into two sections
- Add a high level description of OpenTracing
* newsfile
* Move contributer specific info to docstring.
* Sample config.
* Trailing whitespace.
* Update 5703.misc
* Apply suggestions from code review
Mostly just rewording parts of the docs for clarity.

Clean up config settings and dead code.
This is mostly about cleaning up the config format, to bring it into line with our conventions. In particular:
* There should be a blank line after `## Section ##' headings
* There should be a blank line between each config setting
* There should be a `#`-only line between a comment and the setting it describes
* We don't really do the `# #` style commenting-out of whole sections if we can help it
* rename `tracer_enabled` to `enabled`
While we're here, do more config parsing upfront, which makes it easier to use
later on.
Also removes redundant code from LogContextScopeManager.
Also changes the changelog fragment to a `feature` - it's exciting!
* Configure and initialise tracer
Includes config options for the tracer and sets up JaegerClient.
* Scope manager using LogContexts
We piggy-back our tracer scopes by using log context.
The current log context gives us the current scope. If new scope is
created we create a stack of scopes in the context.
* jaeger is a dependency now
* Carrier inject and extraction for Twisted Headers
* Trace federation requests on the way in and out.
The span is created in _started_processing and closed in
_finished_processing because we need a meaningful log context.
* Create logcontext for new scope.
Instead of having a stack of scopes in a logcontext we create a new
context for a new scope if the current logcontext already has a scope.
* Remove scope from logcontext if logcontext is top level
* Disable tracer if not configured
* typo
* Remove dependence on jaeger internals
* bools
* Set service name
* :Explicitely state that the tracer is disabled
* Black is the new black
* Newsfile
* Code style
* Use the new config setup.
* Generate config.
* Copyright
* Rename config to opentracing
* Remove user whitelisting
* Empty whitelist by default
* User ConfigError instead of RuntimeError
* Use isinstance
* Use tag constants for opentracing.
* Remove debug comment and no need to explicitely record error
* Two errors a "s(c)entry"
* Docstrings!
* Remove debugging brainslip
* Homeserver Whitlisting
* Better opentracing config comment
* linting
* Inclue worker name in service_name
* Make opentracing an optional dependency
* Neater config retreival
* Clean up dummy tags
* Instantiate tracing as object instead of global class
* Inlcude opentracing as a homeserver member.
* Thread opentracing to the request level
* Reference opetnracing through hs
* Instantiate dummy opentracin g for tests.
* About to revert, just keeping the unfinished changes just in case
* Revert back to global state, commit number:
9ce4a3d906
* Use class level methods in tracerutils
* Start and stop requests spans in a place where we
have access to the authenticated entity
* Seen it, isort it
* Make sure to close the active span.
* I'm getting black and blue from this.
* Logger formatting

* Outdated comment
* Import opentracing at the top
* Return a contextmanager
* Start tracing client requests from the servlet
* Return noop context manager if not tracing
* Explicitely say that these are federation requests
* Include servlet name in client requests
* Use context manager
* Move opentracing to logging/
* Seen it, isort it again!
* Ignore twisted return exceptions on context exit
* Escape the scope
* Scopes should be entered to make them useful.
* Nicer decorator names
* Just one init, init?
* Don't need to close something that isn't open
* Docs make you smarter
