wine server
by Mike McCormack Aug. 15, 2001

Aug. 15, 2001

Hi Phillip, The wineserver does the job of the Windows NT kernel in wine. Here's a summary of what i've worked out about the wineserver: * the wineserver is responsible for all system level synchronization of wine processes, and maintaining integrity of handles * the wineserver is the sole repository for all HANDLE data in the wine process group. * wineserver communicates with each wine process thru a socket and shared memory. There is one socket and one shared memory area per wine process. * the main task of wineserver is a loop which polls on all the wine process sockets, and handles timeouts. * the wineserver processes requests one by one (it is a single thread). * each request is triggered by the wine process writing to its socket, and ended when the wineserver writes back to the socket. During the request, the wine process is effectively stopped. * request data may be read to or written from the shared memory, but the shared memory is not used for synchronization. Synchronization is maintained solely by socket reads and writes. * the wineserver should end each request before processing the next * the wineserver must never wait for or depend upon any wine processes. All wine processes must be assumed to be unstable and unreliable. (even if they're not) * the wineserver design is reliable, but rather slow due to all the context switching required by each request. David Howells made an effort to turn it into a Linux kernel module... he hasn't finished yet. hope that's accurate and helpful...

when i use the RegisterClass(&WndClass); under wine the call fails. I'm using it to sub class the button class. Does wine not support this? Interdynamics Web Page : http://www.interdynamics.com

printing AND memory
by Richard Canada Aug. 14, 2001

Aug. 14, 2001

Does anyone know why I am getting an error message about "Insufficient memory" when I try to print from wine? I can see the printer is there, but I cannot print. I am running Lotus Notes 5.0.6. Thanks Richard

This won't work for builtin dlls, you cannot pass an argument into dlopen(). This is not a problem for builtins themselves since they are not searched the same way, but it may break if a builtin imports a native dll. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

I don't think there's any way to make snoop 100% reliable, the PE file simply doesn't contain enough information. This is the reason we have to build special tables in the builtin dlls for relay debugging. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

Advice please. adding a MODULE_LoadLibraryExA argument
by Bill Medland Aug. 14, 2001

Aug. 14, 2001

I'd appreciate advice on this. I am looking at adding the handling of LoadLibraryExA (..LOAD_WITH_ALTERED_SEARCH_PATH) (which we use) and I am wondering about how to carry around the library directory during the recursion on MODULE_LoadLibraryExA. The easiest way is to put it in a static variable (ok, some allocated memory pointed to by a static variable) and depend upon the existing critical sections (which I don't understand particularly) to ensure it is only used by the currently loading tree of DLLS (i.e. set it up after the RtlAcquirePebLock in MODULE_LoadLibraryExA). However I dislike using static variables as a matter of principle. The way I would prefer would be to add an argument to all the functions in the recursion and use that to carry the name around. MODULE_LoadLibraryExA PE_LoadLibraryExA ELF_LoadLibraryExA PE_CreateModule fixup_imports Any objections? Bill

Solaris X86 mmap...
by Robert Lunnon Aug. 14, 2001

Aug. 14, 2001

On Jan 10 2001 Ulrich Weigand submitted a patch to library/port.c to attempt to fix the linux mmap behaviour dependency for solaris systems. After that point I can't find any reference to this patch, it certainly hasn't made it into the CVS yet ? Does anyone know the outcome of this work, or am I the only Solaris X86 user out there :-)

SNOOP: How to find out if an DLL entry is a DATA reference?
by Uwe Bonnes Aug. 13, 2001

Aug. 13, 2001

Hallo, e.g. with the MFC libraries the snoop option crashes quite often, while without snoop the programm proceeds some more. Digging deeper for the crash in msdev.exe, I saw that a library has exported DATA entries mixed into the codesegment. Our snoop loader only checks for DATA entries in the PE DATA section and so happyly overwrites data. It seems that most exported DATA entries have a decorated name ending in @A or @B and by handling entries with that ending as DATA, the crash with msdev.exe happens at the same place with or without snoop. Appended patch does this hacky search for DATA entries. However I like to ask if there are other methods of distinguishing DATA and function references? Could the PE loader perhaps know? Or can we perhaps protect our snoop entries from being read as data and catch those exceptions? Any other idea? Bye Changelog: relay32/snoop.c: SNOOP_GetProcAddress Don't snoop on names ending in "@A" and "@B", they seem to be DATA entries.
