[Bug 14789] New: Fix signal handler
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14789 Summary: Fix signal handler Product: Wine Version: CVS/GIT Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: Markus.Elfring(a)web.de The function "fprintf()" does not belong to the list of async-signal-safe functions. See section "2.4.3 Signal Actions" from the document "2.4 Signal Concepts". http://opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/xsh_chap02_04.html#tag_0... I guess that a different program design will be needed for your function "do_sigsegv". I recommend to change the data type for the variable "watchdog" to "sig_atomic_t". http://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git?a=blob;f=server/signal.c;h=5e4fe33c6a3... -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Second - that is a pure debug function that is not even used by default - one have to recompile wineserver with #define DEBUG_OBJECTS 1. And then send -HUP to the server. Third it's called from the signal handler which guarantees it won't ever reenter. So I don't see what reentrancy are you talking about here?

Second - that is a pure debug function that is not even used by default - one have to recompile wineserver with #define DEBUG_OBJECTS 1. And then send -HUP to the server.
Just because it's only used in the debug path doesn't make it's use any less invalid. If anything it'll make debugging harder as this can trip and hide the real problem being tracked.
Third it's called from the signal handler which guarantees it won't ever reenter.
So I don't see what reentrancy are you talking about here?
Reentrancy is when a function is called while another context/frame is also inside the function. This can very much happen in a single-threaded app. Take for example: 1> User code runs 2> User code enters fprintf 3> Signal interrupt (user code is paused inside fprintf) 4> Signal handler enters fprintf (!!both user code and signal handler are inside fprintf!!) 5> Signal handler leaves fprintf 6> Signal handler exits and resumes user code 7> User code continues inside fprintf 8> User code leaves fprintf IMO, this is a valid bug. You should not be using fprintf inside a signal handler because it's not gauranteed to handle this situation. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

It would be easy to use the data type "sig_atomic_t" and to delete the misplaced fprintf() calls ...

And btw, you are breaking your own requirements stated in the bug 14788 you are referencing here :-) Is there any reason why you don't follow your own coding standard rules?
I do not see the need in this special case because I intentionally marked the ignorance of the return value by the cast. Would you like to continue the discussion of such software design details in the mentioned bug report? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

DO NOT invent your own standards. If you want to do that - go start your own. You've been told do not add any bogus "(void)" anywhere, DO NOT use any arbitrary types. If you can not comprehend this requirements, please stay away from this project!

DO NOT invent your own standards.
I have not got the impression that I do that. I am trying to reuse specifications from POSIX and recent C as much as possible.

I am very surprised by your very strong reaction.

I find it strange that I get classified as a troll because it seems that there is still too many disagreement on technical details around so far. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
