Re: SMATCH: missing LeaveCriticalSection in error path

Michael, I'm just curious, how hard it would be to adapt your SMATCH script for finding EnterCriticalSection/LeaveCriticalSection pair matching to do a similar work with wine_tsx11_lock/wine_tsx11_unlock, GDI_GetObjPtr/GDI_ReleaseObj, DC_GetDC[Ptr|Update]/GDI_ReleaseObj, USER_Lock/USER_Unlock, WIN_GetPtr/WIN_ReleasePtr, WIN_FindWndPtr/ WIN_ReleaseWndPtr and some other internal Wine locks? -- Dmitry.

CreateProcess + STARTF_USESTDHANDLES
by Oleg Prokhorov Feb. 23, 2003

Feb. 23, 2003

Hello , This bug occurs to chess.net client application and may be some others. I've debugged a problem with CreateProcess where parent process overrides child process' stdin, stderr, stdout handles. It can be done like this (portion of a code) // Override siStartInfo.dwFlags = STARTF_USESTDHANDLES; // Create the child process. if (!CreateProcess("child.exe", "child.exe", // command line NULL, // process security attributes NULL, // primary thread security attributes TRUE, // handles are inherited DETACHED_PROCESS, // creation flags NULL, // use parent's environment NULL, // use parent's current directory &siStartInfo, // STARTUPINFO pointer &piProcInfo)) // receives PROCESS_INFORMATION ErrorExit("Create process failed"); The bug in Wine is the following lines of scheduler/process.c else if (!(main_create_flags & (DETACHED_PROCESS|CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE))) { SetStdHandle( STD_INPUT_HANDLE, current_startupinfo.hStdInput ); SetStdHandle( STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE, current_startupinfo.hStdOutput ); SetStdHandle( STD_ERROR_HANDLE, current_startupinfo.hStdError ); } You see it does not allow any std handles overriding if main_create_flags' DETACHED_PROCESS or CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE bit is set on, which is partially wrong in Windows. Cause it doesn't take in account siStartInfo.dwFlags=STARTF_USESTDHANDLES, which requires overriding. The full proof of a bug is included, test it on Windows. It may be used as on of wine tests, if you need that. The bug seems to be easy to fix but to the wine server / client process creation insider. I'm not sure what will be better to you fix it yourself, or guide me how to do it in the most proper way. -- Best regards, Oleg mailto:xolegpro(a)rbcmail.ru

Wineconf 2003
by Jeremy White Feb. 23, 2003

Feb. 23, 2003

Okay, folks, I think we should have a Wineconf, and I think it should be in conjunction with LinuxTag in 2003. However, I am too swamped to arrange a conference in Germany. Further, Dan, who was kindly following this up, can't make it to Germany in July (congrats, btw, Dan <g>). So, while he started a conversation with the Linuxtag folks, and while they were willing to help out, we really need someone to pick up the ball and run with this. I think we really need someone in Europe. Could someone please volunteer to take responsibility for making this happen? Here's the threat: unless someone steps up and volunteers to drive this process, I will hold it in Minneapolis/St. Paul, and I'll try to pick the coldest and nastiest month to do it <grin>. Cheers, Jeremy

RE: Fast thread-local storage for OpenGL drivers
by Gareth Hughes Feb. 23, 2003

Feb. 23, 2003

Here's a sample app and library that uses a couple of __thread variables in a manner similar to OpenGL. I'd appreciate it if someone could take a look and explain what I'm doing incorrectly, as I've declared the variables as LE and yet seem to be getting IE. Note that I'm away from home and don't have a system that I can actually run this app on, so it may very well be completely broken. Thanks! -- Gareth Hughes (gareth(a)nvidia.com) OpenGL Developer, NVIDIA Corporation

HTMLHelp Setup
by Gerhard W. Gruber Feb. 22, 2003

Feb. 22, 2003

I tried to run the html help setup programm I downloaded from MS website. When I launch it I get an error msg missing w95inf32.dll. When I copy this over from the original windows installation w95inf16.dll is also missing. I copied this also over then then I get an erro message after unpacking saying: Incorrect INF file syntax in section 'HHWDestinationDir ; Ask user for custom destination' Now I'd like to know: Are there any replacements planned/available for the w95inf dlls? Any idea whats wrong with the INF file? The only fixme that I get is about CreateProcess so I don't think that this is it, or could it? -- Gerhard Gruber Für jedes menschliche Problem gibt es immer eine einfache Lösung: Klar, einleuchtend und falsch.

Setupapi and Mingw
by Steven Edwards Feb. 22, 2003

Feb. 22, 2003

Hola, Now that ReactOS is having some luck loading device drivers we are going to need a easy way to load inf scripts for the registry information. I have been testing building setupapi under mingw and am getting the following error. Info: resolving _wine_ldt_copy by linking to __imp__wine_ldt_copy (auto-import) fu000001.o(.idata$3+0xc): undefined reference to `libwine_a_iname' nmth000000.o(.idata$4+0x0): undefined reference to `_nm__wine_ldt_copy' E:\users\steven\mingw\bin\dllwrap.exe: E:\users\steven\mingw\bin\gcc exited with status 1 make: *** [setupapi.dll] Error 1 I have been looking at Jeroen Janssen's wine_ldt_copy importing on cygwin patch but havent had any luck. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks Steven __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Tax Center - forms, calculators, tips, more http://taxes.yahoo.com/
