[PATCH v19 0/1] MR9632: sxs: avoid uninitialised len_name length
by Hans Chen (＠hans.chen) Dec. 9, 2025

Dec. 9, 2025

The `redirect_data->clrdata_len` [is unset in /dlls/ntdll/actctx.c#L4411-4412](https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/blob/master/dlls/ntdll/actctx.c?ref_type=heads#L4411-4412) when using registration-free COM in C# NET code. Program.cs ```C# //... Guid guid = Guid.Parse("COM clsid"); Type type = Type.GetTypeFromCLSID(guid, true); var instance = Activator.CreateInstance(type)); //... ``` App.manifest ```xml <assembly> <file name="ExampleCOM.dll"> <comClass description="ExampleCOM" progid="ExampleCOM" clsid="{COM clsid}" threadingModel="Free"/> </file> </assembly> ``` The above C# code gets this error on its second line. ```Shell System.AccessViolationException: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt. ``` This is because `len_name` is uninitialized when calling `memcpy(ret_strings, ptr_name, len_name);` in `SxsLookupClrGuid`, which is fixed in this MR. -- v19: test_SxsLookupClrGuid https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/9632

[PATCH v47 0/5] MR7650: Add support for AF_UNIX sockets (followup)
by Ralf Habacker (＠rhabacker) Dec. 9, 2025

Dec. 9, 2025

Follow-up of !2786, which appears to have been abandoned. Depends on !8182, !8575, !8578 # Execute minimal test case 1. checkout wine into \~/src/wine 2. in dlls/ws2_32/tests/sock.c wrap all calls to test functions after `Init()` until `test_afunix()` with #if 0 ... #endif 3. build into \~/src/wine-build 4. run ``` (cd ~/src/wine-build; \ WINEPREFIX=~/src/wine/.wine \ ../wine/tools/runtest -q -P wine -T . -M ws2_32.dll \ -p dlls/ws2_32/tests/i386-windows/ws2_32_test.exe sock) ``` or without the wrapper and some imported wine debug channels enabled ``` (cd ~/src/wine-build; WINEDEBUG=+file,+winsock \ WINEDLLOVERRIDES=';ws2_32.dll=b' \ WINETEST_PLATFORM=wine \ ./wine dlls/ws2_32/tests/i386-windows/ws2_32_test.exe sock) ``` # How to debug wineserver Since `wineserver` runs in the background, simple calls to printf() will show nothing when the test case is executed. A workaround is to open a file and call fprintf() to write debug messages to this file, which can then be inspected. The wineserver man page mentions that there is limited support to control wineserver debugging by using `WINEDEBUG=+server` ``` -d[n], --debug[=n] Set the debug level to n. 0 means no debugging information, 1 is the normal level, and 2 is for extra verbose debugging. If n is not specified, the default is 1. The debug output will be sent to stderr. wine(1) will automatically enable normal level debugging when starting wineserver if the +server option is set in the WINEDEBUG variable. ``` However, higher levels probably cannot be set in this way. # Problems with synchronized log output - The Windows test binary prints test failures to stdout (line-buffered or fully buffered). - Wine/Wineserver debug prints to stderr (unbuffered). When merged into a single stream (stderr+stdout), stdout lines get fragmented and interleaved between Wine/Wineserver trace messages., which looks like this: ``` 012c:trace:file:NtWriteFile (0xd,(nil),(nil),(nil),0x6afd40,0x4190bc,0x00000012,(nil),(nil)) [?25lsock.c[?25h012c:trace:file:NtWriteFile = SUCCESS (18) 0124:trace:file:NtDeviceIoControlFile (0x10,(nil),(nil),(nil),0x74ddd0,0x00504000,(nil),0x00000000,0x74ddcc,0x00000004)xts={} ) ``` Unfortunately, synchronized logs are important for analyzing processes. # How to debug a wine test case At https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/blob/master/tools/runtest#L151 there is mentioned a environment variable name `WINETEST_WRAPPER`, with which it may be possible to run gdb to debug test cases ``` (cd ~/src/wine-build; make -j10 ;\ WINETEST_WRAPPER="gdb --args" \ WINEPREFIX=~/src/wine/.wine \ ../wine/tools/runtest -P wine -T . -M ws2_32.dll \ -p dlls/ws2_32/tests/i386-windows/ws2_32_test.exe sock) Reading symbols from ./wine...
