Slavi Pantaleev 70796703d3 Run Synapse workers in their own containers
This switches the `docker exec` method of spawning
Synapse workers inside the `matrix-synapse` container with
dedicated containers for each worker.

We also have dedicated systemd services for each worker,
so this are now:
- more consistent with everything else (we don't use systemd
instantiated services anywhere)
- we don't need the "parse systemd instance name into worker name +
port" part
- we don't need to keep track of PIDs manually
- we don't need jq (less depenendencies)
- workers dying would be restarted by systemd correctly, like any other
service
- `docker ps` shows each worker separately and we can observe resource
usage

Slavi Pantaleev 4d62a75f6f Get matrix-corporal to play nicely with a Synapse worker setup
We do this by creating one more layer of indirection.

First we reach some generic vhost handling matrix.DOMAIN.
A bunch of override rules are added there (capturing traffic to send to
ma1sd, etc). nginx-status and similar generic things also live there.

We then proxy to the homeserver on some other vhost (only Synapse being
available right now, but repointing this to Dendrite or other will be
possible in the future).
Then that homeserver-specific vhost does its thing to proxy to the
homeserver. It may or may not use workers, etc.

Without matrix-corporal, the flow is now:
1. matrix.DOMAIN (matrix-nginx-proxy/matrix-domain.conf)
2. matrix-nginx-proxy/matrix-synapse.conf
3. matrix-synapse

With matrix-corporal enabled, it becomes:
1. matrix.DOMAIN (matrix-nginx-proxy/matrix-domain.conf)
2. matrix-corporal
3. matrix-nginx-proxy/matrix-synapse.conf
4. matrix-synapse

(matrix-corporal gets injected at step 2).

Slavi Pantaleev 5ca68210cd Do not handle /_matrix/federation on client-server port, nor /_matrix/client stuff on federation port
I guess it didn't hurt to do it until now, but it's not great serving
federation APIs on the client-server API port, etc.

matrix-corporal doesn't work yet (still something to be solved in the
future), but its firewalling operations will also be sabotaged
by Client-Server APIs being served on the federation port (it's a way to get around its firewalling).

Slavi Pantaleev f7ae050eaf Remove useless quotes around ssl_ciphers value
Not sure if it breaks with them or not, but no other directive
uses quotes and the nginx docs show examples without quotes,
so we're being consistent with all of that.

Agustin Ferrario 25d423e6b6 Fix errors per spantaleev suggestions
The different configurations are now all lower case, for consistent
naming.

`matrix_nginx_proxy_ssl_config` is now called
`matrix_nginx_proxy_ssl_preset`. The different options for "modern",
"intermediate" and "old" are stored in the main.yml file, instead of
being hardcoded in the configuration files. This will improve the
maintainability of the code.

The "custom" preset was removed. Now if one of the variables is set, it
will use it instead of the preset. This will allow to mix and match more
easily, for example using all the intermediate options but only
supporting TLSv1.2. This will also provide better backward
compatibility.

Agustin Ferrario 2082242499 Add matrix_nginx_proxy_ssl_config
A new variable called `matrix_nginx_proxy_ssl_config` is created for
configuring how the nginx proxy configures SSL. Also a new configuration
validation option and other auxiliary variables are created.

A new variable configuration called `matrix_nginx_proxy_ssl_config` is
created. This allow to set the SSL configuration easily using the
default options proposed by Mozilla. The default configuration is set to
"Intermediate", removing the weak ciphers used in the old
configurations.

The new variable can also be set to "Custom" for a more granular control.
This allows to set another three variables called:

- `matrix_nginx_proxy_ssl_protocols`,
- `matrix_nginx_proxy_ssl_prefer_server_ciphers`
- `matrix_nginx_proxy_ssl_ciphers`

Also a new task is added to validate the SSL configuration variable.

Slavi Pantaleev ef07aa8e5d Prevent certain nginx location blocks from being ignored
The regex introduced in 63a49bb2dc seems to take precedence
over the bare location blocks, causing a regression.

> It is important to understand that, by default, Nginx will serve regular expression matches in preference to prefix matches.
> However, it evaluates prefix locations first, allowing for the administer to override this tendency by specifying locations using the = and ^~ modifiers.

Undo ill-advised change
In #628 I proposed a CORS change that turns out not to be the root of the issue. Caffeine-addled diagnosis leads to sloppy thinking, and this change should be reverted. In fact, if left it will cause problems for new installations.

Update CORS for ma1sd
Even with the v2 updates listed in #503 and partially addressed in #614, this is still needed to enable identity services to function with Element Desktop/Web. Testing on multiple clients with a clean config has confirmed this, at least for my installation.

· 😅 How to keep this in sync with the matrix-synapse documentation?
· regex location matching is expensive
· nginx syntax limit: one location only per block / statement
· thus, lots of duplicate statements in this file

Slavi Pantaleev 3e57a1463a Serve nginx status page over HTTPS as well
Continuation of #234 (Github Pull Request).

I had unintentionally updated the documentation for the feature,
saying the page is available at `https://matrix.DOMAIN/nginx_status`.

Looks like it wasn't the case, going against my expectations.

I'm correcting this with this patch.
The status page is being made available on both HTTP and HTTPS.
Serving over HTTP is likely necessary for services like

Slavi Pantaleev e645b0e372 Rename matrix_nginx_proxy_data_path to matrix_nginx_proxy_base_path
`matrix_nginx_proxy_data_path` has always served as a base path,
so we're renaming it to reflect that.

Along with this, we're also introducing a new "data path" variable
(`matrix_nginx_proxy_data_path`), which is really a data path this time.
It's used for storing additional, non-configuration, files related to
matrix-nginx-proxy.

Slavi Pantaleev 74710427e5 Allow for the federation port (tcp/8448)'s certificate to be changed
If someone decides to not use `/.well-known/matrix/server` and only
relies on SRV records, then they would need to serve tcp/8448 using
a certificate for the base domain (not for the matrix) domain.

Until now, they could do that by giving the certificate to Synapse
and setting it terminate TLS. That makes swapping certificates
more annoying (Synapse requires a restart to re-read certificates),
so it's better if we can support it via matrix-nginx-proxy.

Mounting certificates (or any other file) into the matrix-nginx-proxy container
can be done with `matrix_nginx_proxy_container_additional_volumes`,
introduced in 96afbbb5a.

Slavi Pantaleev 0be7b25c64 Make (most) containers run with a read-only filesystem 2019-01-29 18:52:02 +02:00
Slavi Pantaleev 299a8c4c7c Make (most) containers start as non-root
This makes all containers (except mautrix-telegram and
mautrix-whatsapp), start as a non-root user.

We do this, because we don't trust some of the images.
In any case, we'd rather not trust ALL images and avoid giving
`root` access at all. We can't be sure they would drop privileges
or what they might do before they do it.

Because Postfix doesn't support running as non-root,
it had to be replaced by an Exim mail server.

The matrix-nginx-proxy nginx container image is patched up
(by replacing its main configuration) so that it can work as non-root.
It seems like there's no other good image that we can use and that is up-to-date
(https://hub.docker.com/r/nginxinc/nginx-unprivileged is outdated).

Likewise for riot-web (https://hub.docker.com/r/bubuntux/riot-web/),
we patch it up ourselves when starting (replacing the main nginx
configuration).
Ideally, it would be fixed upstream so we can simplify.
