Bug #: 34070 Summary: 'fixme:win:alloc_winproc too many winprocs' prevents simutronics StormFront.exe from updating widgets Product: Wine Version: unspecified Platform: x86 OS/Version: Mac OS X Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: user32 AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: matt@tolton.com Classification: Unclassified

Created attachment 45293 --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=45293 Debug log

This bug is about StormFront.exe from Simutronics. The application works fine for awhile, but at some point certain widgets in the app stop updating. I believe this is due to the message I'm seeing in the debug log (see attached):

fixme:win:alloc_winproc too many winprocs

The time it starts appearing coincides with the widgets not updating. The longer that the application runs, the more messages that are emitted. I ran it for about 4 hours and saw around 20k messages.

I did some code spelunking and tracked it down to this file: https://github.com/mirrors/wine/blob/master/dlls/user32/winproc.c#L298

It seems like MAX_WINPROCS could be increased, and it might alleviate the problem, but would probably just make it take longer to manifest. (Since it only manifests after using the app for a little while, now).

I am using Crossover Mac 12.2.0 (I am not sure which version of wine this is).

My question is twofold: 1) How hard would it be to actually reclaim these winprocs rather than leak them? 2) If that doesn't work, is there some way for me to increase the MAX_WINPROCS constant and recompile user32.dll to use for just one bottle in CrossOver?

--- Comment #1 from Dan Kegel dank@kegel.com 2013-07-15 22:43:27 CDT --- bug 32451 looks similar.

A WINEDEBUG=+win log might be of interest.

--- Comment #2 from Dan Kegel dank@kegel.com 2013-07-15 22:44:06 CDT --- Oh, but you should do that with plain wine, not crossover, if you want support here. Crossover support is handled by http://codeweavers.com.

--- Comment #3 from Matt matt@tolton.com 2013-07-16 01:44:32 CDT --- Okay, I reproduced the issue in vanilla wine and captured a log with WINEDEBUG=+win. By the time the problem occurred, the log was about 500M, so I uploaded it to dropbox. If you'd like me to trim it in some way and attach it to the bug, I'd be happy to.

--- Comment #4 from Matt matt@tolton.com 2013-07-16 01:48:11 CDT --- Also, one thing to note about the log: The initial binary that is run is not StormFront.exe, it is another binary which ends up launching StormFront.exe. So, the very first part of the log contains alloc_winproc calls for several different binaries.

Anastasius Focht focht@gmx.net changed:

--- Comment #7 from Anastasius Focht focht@gmx.net --- Hello folks,

confirming.

Increasing the number of slots won't help you much.

There is an ActiveX control 'actskin4.ocx' (ActiveSkin) that causes new winproc allocation/leakage on many actions. It's popular with VB6 apps but doesn't add real value besides some fancy skins.

Start the app and do plain menu actions, e.g. open 'about' or other menu items. It will leak wndprocs on every action.

Could be a hooking problem (procs should be freed on destruction) or just garbage app code that is worked around by Windows.

--- Comment #13 from Mike mrashkovsky@gmail.com --- So I just tried this myself and I created a free account. Unfortunately it looks like the website doesn't offer StormFront as a client option. I'm not sure how they are detecting whether or not you have StormFront installed, but I suspect that it's not going to work under Linux.

I believe that as long as you are able to click on menus and open/close windows, that you would be able to get this problem to manifest. It doesn't matter whether you're logged in or not.

--- Comment #15 from Mike mrashkovsky@gmail.com --- Cool I think it may be fixed, then. I walked all around town for a few minutes. Probably cycled through 100 rooms or so, and the box that displays the room description continued to update without issue. I also stowed and unstowed various items and the inventory box updated. I toggled some boxes to display on and off a few times and no problem. Seems to be working pretty well
