[PATCH v2 0/1] MR5890: winex11.drv: Fix a possible desktop window message queue hang.
by Zhiyi Zhang (＠zhiyi) 07 Nov '25

After an X11 event handler queues messages to another thread, TRUE should be returned and eventually propagated to X11DRV_ProcessEvents(). When FALSE is always returned in xrandr14_device_change_handler(), a possible hang can happen for the desktop message queue as follows: 1. The explorer.exe calls GetMessageW() -> NtUserGetMessage() -> wait_objects() -> wait_message(). 2. In wait_message(), user_driver->pProcessEvents() gets called in the desktop window thread to handle RRNotify events and calls xrandr14_device_change_handler() -> display_mode_changed(FALSE) -> send_message(get_desktop_window(), WM_DISPLAYCHANGE, ...) -> desktop_window_proc() -> send_message_timeout() -> send_client_message() -> process_message() -> broadcast_message() -> send_message_timeout() -> send_client_message() -> process_message() -> send_inter_thread_message() -> wait_message_reply() -> a server set_queue_mask() with skip_wait being 1 -> wake_mask and changed_mask are set to 0. 3. In wait_message(), user_driver->pProcessEvents() returns FALSE from xrandr14_device_change_handler(). So wait_message() continues to call NtWaitForMultipleObjects(). 4. Now NtWaitForMultipleObjects() hangs for INFINITE timeout because wake_mask and changed_mask for the message queue are set to 0 so the thread is not woke up. The hang is sensitive to message ordering and only happens in this specific case so it's hard to reproduce with tests. I believe some of the past test timeouts on TestBots can be attributed to this bug. -- v2: winex11.drv: Fix a possible desktop window message queue hang. https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/5890

[PATCH v4 0/9] MR8812: winegstreamer: Support 2D sample buffer.
by Conor McCarthy (＠cmccarthy) 03 Nov '25

03 Nov '25

Performance issues can occur when a video output sample has a 2D buffer, because winegstreamer currently outputs only to a linear buffer, which must then be copied into the 2D buffer. Worse, a linear lock of the 2D buffer requires the current contents to be copied to a linear buffer, even when we intend to overwrite it, because MF linear buffers do not support write-only locking. -- v4: mf/tests: Test H.264 sink media type height alignment. winegstreamer: Support 2D sample buffer. mf: Test color convert 2D buffers. mf: Test WMV decoder 2D buffers. mf: Test H.264 decoder 2D buffers. mf: Test sample copier 2D buffers. mfplat/tests: Test NV12 negative stride in MFCreateMediaBufferFromMediaType(). mf/tests: Remove todo for an H.264 decoder test. mf/tests: Stop checking samples at the end of the expected array. https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/8812

[PATCH v2 0/1] MR7410: test-linux32: Disable broken tests that are already released broken
by Damien Zammit (＠zamaudio) 28 Oct '25

28 Oct '25

This should allow the CI to fully pass on this merge request. If it does, master branch could have CI tests enabled to ensure any actual broken test caused by a merge request is visible just by the CI status, and master can also reflect the passing status.

[PATCH 0/1] MR9068: winewayland: don't discard absolute motion events if in relative mode
by llyyr (＠llyyr) 26 Oct '25

26 Oct '25

There exist clients that disable hardware cursors, and instead draw a software cursor during their renderloop. Such clients incorrectly cause winewayland to enable relative pointer motion because winewayland thinks the cursor is not visible, when it is in fact visible and just drawn by the client instead. Enabling relative pointer motion breaks compositors that simulate wl_pointer from tablet tool motion. sway is one such compositor that supports sending wl_pointer events for clients that don't understand tablet-v2. Fix this by not discarding absolute motion events even in the case that relative pointer motion is active. When relative pointer was implemented, winewayland didn't support SetCursorPos and accepting absolute motion events would break mouselook in 3D games. However, now it does support SetCursorPos so there should be no harm in accepting absolute motion events as well. This allows tablet devices to work with winewayland running badly behaved clients that do software rendering of cursors on compositors that do simulate wl_pointer from tablet motion, despite winewayland not supporting tablet-v2 yet.
