[PATCH v14 0/8] MR1074: Draft: ntdll: Improve Valgrind and GDB integration.
by Rémi Bernon May 31, 2026

May 31, 2026

Valgrind support requires a fork, which I've published to https://gitlab.winehq.org/rbernon/valgrind. The fork implements loading DWARF debug info from PE files, instead of the old and broken upstream PDB support. I've tried to upstream these changes a long time ago but didn't receive any feedback. I think we could maybe consider keeping a fork, which I'm happy to maintain, as the changes aren't too large. We may want to investigate adding 32-on-64 support, which may require a bit more changes (to VEX specifically, because its amd64 guest doesn't support segment register manipulation). The changes here are not all related to Valgrind, and I'll create separate MR for those which may make sense independently from Valgrind / GDB. Also included is a suppression file to silent some annoying false positives, many of which are coming from the cross-stack accesses during syscalls, which are confusing Valgrind's stack heuristics. One can try this out with something like: `WINELOADERNOEXEC=1 valgrind --suppressions=tools/valgrind.supp wine64/loader/wine64 wine64/programs/winecfg/winecfg.exe` -- v14: ntdll: Avoid marking freed block header as undefined for valgrind. ntdll: Force HEAP_TAIL_CHECKING_ENABLED flag with valgrind. ntdll: Fix valgrind notifications from ntdll.so. ntdll: Import valgrind headers for PE side ntdll. DEBUG: ntdll: Don't use preloader when running on valgrind. tools: Add gdbunwind.py script with a syscall unwinder. ntdll: Maintain a PE module link map and expose it to GDB. loader: Expose the standard debugging symbols for GDB. https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/1074

Wine-Bug: https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=57343 This is what the Java JRE installer does: - It calls MsiInstallProductW - this opens the msi read/write - The msi runs installer.exe - installer.exe tries to open the msi readonly -- v2: msi: Make MsiInstallProductW open msi readonly msi/tests: Add test for MsiOpenDatabaseA during MsiInstallProductA https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/6760

[PATCH 0/2] MR6841: wow64: Support running a BT module provided suspend routine.
by Billy Laws (＠bylaws) May 4, 2026

May 4, 2026

Suspension in JITs cannot easily be handled on the unix side, so allow BT modules to provide their own suspend helper. This purely supports local thread suspension currently. -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/6841

[PATCH 0/2] MR8414: Fix EV Nova game text truncation.
by Zhiyi Zhang (＠zhiyi) April 29, 2026

April 29, 2026

Fix the rectangle from DrawText(..., DT_CALCRECT) with a selected font might not be enough to actually draw text with the font for the EV Nova game. This ensures that text extent calculated with a font selected in a device context is enough when drawing texts using the same font and device context. The root cause is that FreeType might report different font metrics for different GGO formats. GetTextExtentExPoint() gets text extent with GGO_METRICS. And GGO_METRICS gets font metrics from glyphs loaded with FT_LOAD_TARGET_NORMAL, so when drawing bitmap fonts, which is of GGO_BITMAP format loaded with FT_LOAD_TARGET_MONO, with the calculated text extent, the result text might get truncated because of the font metrics difference. On Windows, anti-aliased font and bitmap font of the same face font reports the same font metrics so such a problem doesn't happen. The ultimate fix is to let FreeType hint the bitmap fonts with the same font metrics as anti-aliased fonts but there are no settings that can achieve it unless we write a new FreeType hinter.

Allows the Adobe Photoshop Elements installer to get slightly further than before The `E_FAIL` check for switching to int while there's a non-integer string isn't needed for the installer and is just something I hit accidentally when trying to write the test cases. Should I leave it in? -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/1338

by Aida Jonikienė March 30, 2026

Many mod/ASI loaders hijack this DLL to do their work so accommodate this fairly common case by preferring their library. -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/6527
