rwho in cygwin?

rwho in cygwin?

[Christian Joensson]

Would it be possible/desirable to have the rwho package under cygwin?

Did you try to build it?  Does it work?  Are you volunteering as a
package maintainer?  If so, then the answer is "yes".

Yes. If someone would volunteer to contribute and maintain it.  

Thanks!

cygpath hangings

[chris]

I decided to try to put some investigation into the cygpath crashings 
that have been reported so much. Here are my findings.. I hope this 
helps! I'd be happy to try further debuggings, except I couldn't figure 
out how to attach a debugger to the program (because as previously noted 
the hang only occurs when running from setup.exe)

I used the basic setup contained in 
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-apps/2003-10/msg00049.html , but made a 
new program I call cygcrash.cc, which I include the source code to at 
the end of this message. If I comment out the call to 
SHGetPathFromIDList in this program, the program returns, else it hangs.

Also, This program seems to be both valid c++ and c code. If it is 
compiled in gcc, all is fine. In g++, it hangs.

If there is anything else anyone would like me to try (like taking a -E 
and picking out all the useless bits of shlobj.h), I'd be happy to do 
so, but won't unless it will be useful to someone :)

-- Code begins --

#include <shlobj.h>

void fee (void) {
  char *buf;
  LPITEMIDLIST id;
  SHGetPathFromIDList (id, buf);
}


int main (int argc, char **argv)
{
    return 0;
}

Nope, not for me.  Are you, by any chance, still using gcc2?

Nope, using gcc 3.3.1 (cygming special)

Just checking... have you been suffering from the "cygpath" crashing 
during setup? If not I imagine that you wouldn't have any problems with 
this, as it is just a (very!) cutdown cygpath.

Just checking (although sorry if I'm being stupid). Can someone else who 
is having the cygpath crash check they get a crash from this too?

Chris,

I suspect that this hang might be happening while loading the DLL.  Could
you try to link your program with something like below and see if it still
hangs, and what it outputs?  If it doesn't hang, try renaming
SHGetPathFromIDList below to something else (e.g., foo) that calls the
real SHGetPathFromIDList, call foo() from your fee() above, and link your
program against both test_dll.dll and SHLWAPI.DLL.
	Igor
P.S. Please don't start new threads as replies to unrelated messages -- it
confuses threaded readers.

-------------------------- BEGIN test_dll.c --------------------------
#include <windows.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <shlobj.h>

static FILE *output = NULL;

void SHGetPathFromIDList(LPITEMIDLIST id, char *buf) {
  return;
}

BOOL WINAPI DllMain(HINSTANCE h, DWORD f, LPVOID r) {
  if (!output) output = stderr;
  fprintf (output, "DLL loaded: ");
  switch (f) {
    case DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH: fprintf (output, "process attach");
                             break;
    case DLL_THREAD_ATTACH:  fprintf (output, "thread attach");
                             break;
    case DLL_THREAD_DETACH:  fprintf (output, "thread detach");
                             break;
    case DLL_PROCESS_DETACH: fprintf (output, "process detach");
                             break;
    default:                 fprintf (output, "WTF?!");
  }
  fprintf (output, "\n");
  fflush (output);
  return TRUE;

Can I just ask (and I could be about to deeply embarass myself I think). 
How do I link against particular .dlls? up until now I've just been 
writing " gcc file.c -o file"

Yes, it still hangs when run under setup from explorer.  No output from
the hung one, or when run stand alone in bash.

Well, I didn't link explicitly with SHLWAPI.DLL, but same here.

There will be no ouput unless main calls foo, right?  Then, I still get a
hang under setup from explorer; no output.  Stand alone in a shell, output
is:

DLL loaded: process attach
DLL loaded: thread attach
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

The SEGV is expected given the code is invalid anyway.

Nothing to see here... move along...

Does "cygcheck yourprog.exe" show both test_dll.dll and SHLWAPI.DLL?

> There will be no ouput unless main calls foo, right?

Actually, if the DLL was loaded, there should be output even if foo isn't
called...

> Then, I still get a hang under setup from explorer; no output.

This could be because the DLL was not loaded, or because of the two stdio
conflicts...  Did you compile the DLL with -mno-cygwin?

Hmm.  Maybe if the DLL has exported global variables, not just functions?
I'll see if I can come up with the appropriate code and will then post it
to the list.

Just linking to it causes a load, or is it the first referance?  I'm a DLL

It is also valid -mno-cygwin code, and when compiled this way, it still
hangs.  Doesn't this eliminate a good portion of the Cygwin startup code
since this is a MINGW executable?

It must be something the exec stub did?  I do see a few cases of suspended
starting in spawn_guts.  Might it have forgotten to resume?  Is there an
easy way to tell if it is suspended?

I'm still puzzled about why the input redirect helps.  Recap:

/etc/postinstall/hang.sh:

#!/bin/bash

FOO=`hangprog.exe < /dev/null`
BAR=`hangprog.exe` # hangs here!

where hangprog.exe is:

I've just verified that the DLL is loaded even if no functions from it are
called (or variables referenced).  FWIW, here's the code I used:

$ cat > cpath.c
int hello();
void foo (void) { hello(); }
int main (int argc, char **argv) { return 0; }
$ cat > cygx.c
#include <windows.h>
#include <stdio.h>

static int counter = 0;
static FILE *output = NULL;

int hello() {
  fprintf (output, "Hello world for the %dth time!\n", counter);
  fflush (output);
  return counter++;
}

BOOL WINAPI DllMain(HINSTANCE h, DWORD f, LPVOID r) {
  if (!output) output = fopen("cygx.out", "wt");
  fprintf (output, "DLL loaded: ");
  switch (f) {
    case DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH: fprintf (output, "process attach");
                             break;
    case DLL_THREAD_ATTACH:  fprintf (output, "thread attach");
                             break;
    case DLL_THREAD_DETACH:  fprintf (output, "thread detach");
                             break;
    case DLL_PROCESS_DETACH: fprintf (output, "process detach");
                             break;
    default:                 fprintf (output, "WTF?!");
  }
  fprintf (output, "\n");
  fflush (output);
  return TRUE;
}
$ gcc -mno-cygwin -shared -o cygx.dll cygx.c
$ gcc -o cpath.exe cpath.c -L. -lcygx
$ ./cpath.exe; cat cygx.out

I don't know if it matters, frankly.  It looks like the DLL is loaded, but
it doesn't load completely.  Maybe something that SHLWAPI.DLL is doing on
initialization?

I meant making "counter" in the above example global rather than static.
Turns out it doesn't make a difference -- the DLL is loaded anyway.  I
still suspect the initialization code in SHLWAPI.DLL is doing something
that Cygwin doesn't like.

I think it might (again, going on my faulty memory).

Does that comment mean you can reproduce this now?  I guess you're just
talking about email observations, right.

Maybe, it is just *very* strange.

Only setup launched from explorer launched bash launched back tick SHLWAPI
base program without input redirection.  Ugh...!  Any change in the above
and the problem goes away. (ie. explorer->setup->bash`SHLWAPI exe #
without < /dev/null`).

I must be going senile.  I just managed to duplicate the problem on my

no avail.

I'd be more interested in "cygcheck cygpath" output in the two different cases.
That would tell us which DLLs were being loaded.

This is slightly false information.  The above run from setup was launched
using....   

Steve Fairbairn@stevefnec ~/obj
$ cygstart -- W:/Public/Installs/Installs/Cygwin/setup-2.415.exe --no-md5

When instead I double click on 'setup-2.415.exe' I end up with a path very
close to my normal bash one.

All,

As a side note, I have 11 copies of that DLL (java dev and runtime, Visual
Studio/Source Safe, ...) on my system, but only the system32 one is in my
normal path.

Someone mentioned something about possible issues to do with the path being
different, so I thought I'd run a quick test.

---
$ cat setup_from_win.sh.done 
#!/bin/bash -x

# CYGWIN_DEBUG=/bin/cygpath
# set CYGWIN_SLEEP=20000

echo $PATH > /cygdrive/d/path_from_setup
---

I ran this first with my normal bash shell, renamed the output, and then ran
it again from within setup.

I am attaching the 2 files as they are as well because of the contents of
one of them, but here is what I see.

Your wish is my command :) Unfortunatly, whatever is causing the hanging

I'll attach what I get anyway.. I'm running the following script:

cygcheck -vs

FOO=$(cygcheck -vs)

I would suggest setting up the script to send to a file, invoking
it twice by running setup from explorer and from a command line,
and if there is any difference send that in.  I'm not too hopeful
though!

As in set up a script in /etc/postinstall that runs cygcheck -vs to a file,
and send that in?

Re: cygpath hangings

[Cliff Hones]

I'm surprised that this problem seems so intractable.
While careful debugging and analysis ought to get to
the root of the problem eventually, there is clearly
some difficulty in getting a suitable debug session
without upsetting what is being examined.  [Heisenberg
at work.]  So alternate approaches could be worthwhile.

We seem to be looking for a subtle difference in the environment
between a hanging postinstall script (which happens on some
systems only, and also only when setup is executed from an
explorer window) and a working one.  Is it possible cygcheck
might show such a difference, or is there another utility
which could show system info (such as some of the current
internal state of the cygwin shared memory)?  Running
cygcheck -vs (and/or some other such utility) from
a hanging and non-hanging postinstall shell might come
up with something.

Steve,

FWIW, I've posted instructions on how to run a program from setup recently
(but can't find the actual message at the moment).  To summarize, simply
create a shell script named BLAH.sh that calls that program (you may need
to call it through bash, too), put it in /etc/postinstall, and run setup
in "Keep" mode.  The script will be run during the postinstall phase (even
though you won't install anything).

Chris & All,

I dare say Corinna has a fair idea of what the code is, and whether she has
experienced the hanging problems ;).

I have suffered from the hanging cygpath issue, I did a clean install (new
box) and have since not changed the installation.  If you could supply me
with an exe for this code (private email) or the flags used when building
that code and a description of how to make setup run it (as I've not
actually gleaned that information from the mails on the subject), I will be
glad to see if I can cause the issue to happen.

I am currently getting the cygwin sources out of cvs, but due to work
firewall being quite strict I'm having to get them via an ssh tunnel to my
home server (ADSL) so could be quite some time.  Does anyone know if I want
to update my gcc before attempting to build the DLL with debug on (gcc
version 3.2 20020927 (prerelease))?

Cheers,

Steve Fairbairn.
