[Bug 53709] New: Janes Longbow 2 crashes due to privileged instruction in 32bit code
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53709 Bug ID: 53709 Summary: Janes Longbow 2 crashes due to privileged instruction in 32bit code Product: Wine Version: 7.0 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: cmsj(a)tenshu.net Distribution: --- Created attachment 73131 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=73131 backtrace.txt I'm trying to get 1997's "Jane's Longbow 2" running. I've tried Crossover on macOS and Bottles on a SteamDeck and in both cases I get a crash while launching the game, with an error message about a privileged instruction. Since the game has long since stopped being sold, it's fairly easily available in software preservation archives, if anybody is interested in taking a look. I've attached a backtrace from the Steam Deck. -- 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.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53709 --- Comment #2 from Zeb Figura <z.figura12(a)gmail.com> --- Wine build: wine-7.0.r0.g2fc92f8b ( TkG Staging ) I'm going to assume it's not relevant here, but in the future please either test with upstream wine, or report bugs to third-party projects. Does changing the Windows version to Windows 95 help? You may need to create a new 32-bit prefix. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53709 --- Comment #3 from Chris Jones <cmsj(a)tenshu.net> --- I am not very good at wrangling a disassembler, but I think this is the relevant section of code: ; ================ B E G I N N I N G O F P R O C E D U R E ================ ; Variables: ; arg_4: int, 8 ; arg_0: int, 4 sub_4530a0: 004530a0 xor eax, eax ; CODE XREF=sub_412273+26 004530a2 mov dx, word [esp+arg_0] 004530a7 mov al, byte [esp+arg_4] 004530ab out dx, al 004530ac ret ; endp so 0x4530ab would be a call to OUT, which I guess could make some sense as a privilege error if it's trying to write to some IO port it's not allowed to? -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

I've tried a number of different versions and it seems to be pretty consistent throughout. Apologies for using a non-upstream wine. -- 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.

Hrm. It should be trying to emulate the outsb in windows 95 mode. Can you please attach a log with the version set to windows 95 and WINEDEBUG=+pid,+module,+seh,+int,+io ? -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53709 --- Comment #6 from Chris Jones <cmsj(a)tenshu.net> --- Ok, some progress at least - I switched to upstream wine and ran it on Linux instead of macOS, and the game is at least trying to start now - I was able to get it to object to not having a CD present, but when mounting that and running again, I get a different crash that looks to be in something DLL related. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

The actual crash is a few instructions earlier, though. Either way it's in an application DLL, with no easy clue what's causing it. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53709 --- Comment #9 from Chris Jones <cmsj(a)tenshu.net> --- Thanks very much for helping with the analysis here - I am definitely out of my depth! I don't think I am realistically going to be able to step through the assembly and debug this, but there is at least one other version of the game around, and it can be run in 3dfx/Direct3D/software rendering modes, so I'll try out some permutations and see if anything changes. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
