[PATCH 0/6] MR7236: winewayland: Clipboard support
by Alexandros Frantzis (＠afrantzis) 05 Feb '25

05 Feb '25

This MR adds clipboard support to the winewayland driver. Under Wayland only applications that have the keyboard focus can interact with the clipboard (a.k.a. `wl_data_device`). Such constraints are not a natural fit for Wine's current clipboard infrastructure, which uses a separate thread and window in the desktop process to act as the win32-side clipboard proxy for all native windows. This MR tries to work within the current Wine clipboard Wine by forwarding relevant clipboard messages to the foreground window which is likely to have the keyboard focus and that can actually handle them. This works well in practice (although there are some edge cases this fails), but I am open to different ideas about implementing the clipboard integration. Some notes about the MR: 1. Some formats that require special treatment (e.g., CF_HTML, CF_HDROP) are not implemented in this MR to keep the size reasonable (and also to not distract from the goal of this MR which is to propose/discuss the basic design of clipboard integration). 2. Dynamic registration of newly-seen/unknown formats is not supported at the moment. It's not clear to what degree that's useful, since many (most?) Windows clipboard format strings are free-form and don't use the MIME type standard. But perhaps enough Windows apps know about MIME types nowadays to make this addition worth it? 3. Since access to the Wayland clipboard data is performed from the focused window threads (rather than the dedicated clipboard thread), any blocking while waiting for data to be sent/received has more potential to affect the applications. I have implemented reasonable timeouts which are hopefully enough to make this a non-issue. A (more complex) alternative would be a different design that attempts to offload any potentially blocking work to the dedicated clipboard thread (or is there some kind of async read/write mechanism we can use?). I am not convinced the extra complexity is worth it, though. -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/7236

[PATCH 0/25] MR7226: ntdll: Implement in-process synchronization via the Linux "ntsync" driver.
by Elizabeth Figura (＠zfigura) 04 Feb '25

04 Feb '25

This introduces a faster implementation of signal and wait operations on NT events, semaphores, and mutexes, which improves performance to native levels for a wide variety of games and other applications. The goal here is similar to the long-standing out-of-tree "esync" and "fsync" patch sets, but without the flaws that make those patch sets not upstreamable. The Linux "ntsync" driver is not currently released. It has been accepted into the trunk Linux tree for 6.14, so barring any extraordinary circumstances, the API is frozen and it will be released in its current form in about 2 months. Since it has passed all relevant reviewers on the kernel side, and the API is all but released, it seems there is no reason any more not to submit the Wine side to match. Some important notes: * This patch set does *not* include any way to disable ntsync support, since that kind of configuration often seems to be dispreferred where not necessary. In essence, ntsync should just work everywhere. Probably the easiest way to effectively disable ntsync, for the purposes of testing, is to chmod the /dev/ntsync device to prevent its being opened. Regardless, a Wine switch to disable ntsync can be added simply enough. Note that it should probably not take the form of a registry key, however, since it needs to be easily accessible from the server itself. * It is, generally speaking, not possible for only some objects, or some processes, to have backing ntsync objects, while others use the old server path. The esync/fsync patch sets explicitly protected against this by making sure every process had a consistent view of whether esync was enabled. This is not provided here, since no switch is provided to toggle ntsync, and it should not be possible to get into such an inconsistent state without gross misconfiguration. * Similarly, no diagnostic messages are provided to note that ntsync is in use, or not in use. These messages are part of esync/fsync, as well as part of ntsync "testing" trees unofficially distributed. However, if ntsync is working correctly, no message should be necessary. The basic structure is: * Each type of server object which can be waited on by the client (including events, semaphores, mutexes, but also other types such as processes, files) must store an "inproc_sync" object. This "inproc_sync" object is a full server object (note that this differs from esync/fsync). A vector and server request is introduced to retrieve an NT handle to this object from an arbitrary NT handle. Since the actual ntsync objects are simply distinct file descriptions, we then call get_handle_fd from the client to retrieve an fd to the object, and then perform ioctls on it. * Objects signaled by the server (processes, files, etc) perform ntsync ioctls on that object. The backing object in all such cases is simply an event. * Signal and wait operations on the client side attempt to defer to an "inproc_*" function, falling back to the server implementation if it returns STATUS_NOT_IMPLEMENTED. This mirrors how in-process synchronization objects (critical sections, SRW locks, etc) used to be implemented—attempting to use an architecture-specific "fast_*" function and falling back if it returned STATUS_NOT_IMPLEMENTED. * The inproc_sync handles, once retrieved, are cached per-process. This caching takes a similar form to the fd cache. It does not reuse the same infrastructure, however. The primary reason for this is that the fd cache is designed to fit within a 64-bit value and uses 64-bit atomic operations to ensure consistency. However, we need to store more than 64 bits of information. [We also need to modify them after caching, in order to correctly implement handle closing—see below.] The secondary reason is that retrieving the ntsync fd from the inproc_sync handle itself uses the fd cache. * In order to keep the Linux driver simple, it does not implement access flags (EVENT_MODIFY_STATE etc.) Instead, the flags are cached locally and validated there. This too mirrors the fd cache. Note that this means that a malicious process can now modify objects it should not be able modify—which is less true than it is with wineserver—but this is no different from the way other objects (notably fds) are handled, and would require manual syscalls. * In order to achieve correct behaviour related to closing objects while they are used, this patch set essentially relies on refcounting. This is broadly true of the server as well, but because we need to avoid server calls when performing object operations, significantly more care must be taken. In particular, because waits need to be interruptable by signals and then be restarted, we need the backing ntsync object to remain valid until all users are done with it. On a process level, this is achieved by letting multiple processes own handles to the underlying inproc_sync server object. On a thread level, multiple simultaneous calls need to refcount the process's local handle. This refcount is stored in the sync object cache. When it reaches zero, the cache is cleared. Punting this behaviour to the Linux driver would have introduced a great deal more complexity, which is best kept in userspace and out of the kernel. * The cache is, as such, treated as a cache. The penultimate commit, which introduces client support but does not yet cache the objects, effectively illustrates this by never actually caching anything, and retrieving a new NT handle and fd every time. * Certain waits, on internal handles (such as async, startup_info, completion), are delegated to the server even when ntsync is used. Those server objects do not create an underlying ntsync object. -- This merge request has too many patches to be relayed via email.

[PATCH v67 0/6] MR2786: Add support for AF_UNIX sockets
by Ally Sommers (＠dropbear) 03 Feb '25

03 Feb '25

Windows 10 [received support](https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/af_unix-comes-to-window… for AF_UNIX sockets in Insider Build 17063. This merge request adds basic support for AF_UNIX sockets to ws2_32 and wineserver. Of particular note is the difficulty in handling `sun_path`. Most of the functions that allow for translating Windows paths to Unix paths are not accessible from ws2_32. I considered the following options: * Pass the Windows path to wineserver and do the conversion there. * This is, as far as I can tell, not possible without major rearchitecting. wineserver does not have functions to translate Windows paths to Unix paths, for obvious reasons. * Obtain the current working directory of the requesting process and temporarily change directories to there. * This only handles relative paths and fails for absolute paths, UNC paths, etc. * Conditionally change directories based on whether the path is relative or not. * This is error-prone and wineserver does not have the requisite functions to do this cleanly. I ultimately decided to pass the translated Unix path to wineserver, which changes directories to `dirname(path)`. It then provides `bind` and `connect` with `basename(path)`. This is not threadsafe, but wineserver is not (currently) multithreaded. Abstract sockets are not fully supported by this patch, matching the behavior of Windows. -- v67: ws2_32/tests: Add test for AF_UNIX sockets. server: Fix getsockname() and accept() on AF_UNIX sockets. server: Introduce error when attempting to create a SOCK_DGRAM AF_UNIX socket. server: Allow for deletion of socket files. ws2_32: Add support for AF_UNIX sockets. ws2_32: Add afunix.h header. https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/2786

[PATCH 0/1] MR7028: ntdll: Remove manifest name filtering.
by Dmitry Timoshkov (＠dmitry) 03 Feb '25

03 Feb '25

Componenets installed by winetricks have "deadbeef.manifest" trailer in their manifests, so it's not clear that filtering logic works. On the other hand when manifests for versions 1.2.3.4 and 1.2.3.10 are installed and application exe needs version 1.2.0.0 and later uses LoadLibrary() to load a plugin.dll that needs 1.2.3.7, version 1.2.3.4 gets loaded with an .exe (because manifest for version 1.2.3.10 is ignored) and version 1.2.3.10 gets loaded with a plugin.dll, and this leads to crashes. -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/7028
