[Bug 54979] New: Futexes which protect memory allocation congest, causing 100x performance degradation
by WineHQ Bugzilla 21 Nov '25

21 Nov '25

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54979 Bug ID: 54979 Summary: Futexes which protect memory allocation congest, causing 100x performance degradation Product: Wine Version: 8.0.1 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: ntdll Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: nagle(a)animats.com Distribution: --- Created attachment 74518 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=74518 Debugger output with multiple threads stuck in spinlocks. SUMMARY Under the wrong circumstances, a program doing many memory allocations from multiple threads can experience more than 100x performance degradation. I'm seeing this in my own Rust program, which has 16 sometimes-compute-bound threads on a 12 CPU machine. This works fine on Microsoft Windows and when compiled for Linux. Under Wine, it can be over 100x slower. Multiple threads are banging on a spinlock at _InterlockedCompareExchange [Z:\usr\src\packages\BUILD\include\winnt.h:6630] in ntdll spin_lock [Z:\usr\src\packages\BUILD\dlls\ntdll\sync.c:937] in ntdll This is the spin lock around the queue for pausing threads. DISCUSSION This looks like futex congestion. That's a known kind of problem, but doesn't seem to have been seen in Wine before. It may be that some programs just run really slow under Wine, and nobody knows why. The code in NTDLL is clearly intended to handle the fast case without doing an OS-level lock. Under light load, that's O(1). But under heavy load, with multiple threads pounding on spinlocks, each spinlock waits longer, and there are multiple threads, so it becomes O(N^2). Which means huge slowdowns. See discussion at https://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=37688 which has snippets of the code that's causing the problem. I can copy all that info over here if necessary. Let me know. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

[Bug 54455] New: CodeMeterRuntime: Install fails with '00c4:err:service:process_send_command service protocol error - failed to write pipe!'
by WineHQ Bugzilla 20 Nov '25

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54455 Bug ID: 54455 Summary: CodeMeterRuntime: Install fails with '00c4:err:service:process_send_command service protocol error - failed to write pipe!' Product: Wine Version: 8.1 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: irmin.okic(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- Created attachment 74012 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=74012 Terminal output of the installer. Steps to reproduce: * Install dotnet48 into the prefix with winetricks. * Download CodeMeterRuntime 64bit 7.60 (but earlier versions had the same error) for Windows from: https://www.wibu.com/us/support/user/downloads-user-software.html * Execute the installer. * To reduce complexity in the installer on the Custom Setup step select "don't install" for all components except "CodeMeter Runtime Kit". I.e. "don't install" for Network Server, WibuShellExtension, User Help, Automatic server search, Remote access to WebAdmin. * Finish the installation. The installer will state that it ended prematurely. The relevant errors are probably: 00c4:err:service:process_send_command service protocol error - failed to write pipe! 016c:err:msi:ITERATE_StartService failed to start service L"CmWebAdmin.exe" (1053) 016c:err:msi:execute_script Execution of script 0 halted; action L"StartServices" returned 1627 016c:err:msi:ITERATE_Actions Execution halted, action L"InstallExecute" returned 1627 In Wine 7 I ignored the installer error with the following arguments to the installer: /ComponentArgs "*":"/qn ADDLOCAL=Complete,DotNET_Modules,AutomaticServerSearch REMOVE=WibuShellExtension,EnableNetworkServer,AccessToWebAdmin /l*v C:\users\z0rb\Temp\keyinst.log /norestart DISABLEROLLBACK=1 PROP_CMCC=\"none\"" The important argument was DISABLEROLLBACK=1. This meant that I can keep the install even with the failure. Then run CodeMeterCC.exe which started the CodeMeter windows service. With that service I could use further software that uses CodeMeter as their licensing service. In wine 8 even that service (together with CmWebAdmin.exe) started having the "failed to write pipe error!". I am out of workarounds at the moment and asking here for help. If you can instruct me with further debug flags and similar to narrow down the error I am ready to put in the work. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=48413 Bug ID: 48413 Summary: Unable to Run DelftShip keep getting "Runtime Error 217 at 00000000004140EC" Product: Wine Version: 5.0-rc2 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: critical Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: drctheboss(a)charter.net Distribution: ArchLinux Was able to install and use last year using Mint 19.1 and Wine 4.0.1 using the following fix, that I had posted in the AppDB for DelftShip. I have since moved over to Manjaro 18.1.5 and using Staging 5.0-rc2. I followed the procedure below and it installed acouple of extra files and I didnt see any errors on the installation, but when I run the program I get "Runtime Error 217 at 00000000004140EC" Last working fix "Possible problem with some distro/wine combination - found was that the downloaded "exe" installer would hang up at "moving files"; see below for workaround. Set Winecfg default to Windows 7 The exe installer is affected by bug 34989 / 33345, and the workaround mentioned in that bug report works for DELFTship. Run the downloaded exe with the following command to extract the files within it: wine /path/to/version_of_delftship.exe /extract Example: dave(a)dave-GB-BXBT-1900 ~ $ wine /home/dave/Downloads/DELFTship_90_300_mc0_sa.exe /extract This will create a subdirectory with the extracted files in the directory where the exe is located. The name of the subdirectory will be some combination of letters and numbers. Example: /home/dave/Downloads/323610A Within the directory are two files, Delftship.msi and DelftShip.x64.msi one is 32 bit and one 64 bit. take your pick, both worked fine on my version of wine 2.0. Once you click on the version you want it will install DelftShip and ask you if you want to run the program. That's all folks ;-0" I hope this can work again thanks for your hard work -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
