Re: Pending patches for generic build script
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1
Igor and rlc,
Not sure which one (or both) of you is dealing with these, but I've got
one of my own patches for the build script, attached here.
To summarize and explain:
* provides variables for multiple binary packages, meaning that only the
'pkg' section has to be modified when this is necessary
* adds functions 'reconf' and 'reinstall', mainly for package makers
using the script to drive the initial build process, when they realize
that changes need to be made and want to get a clean conf or install
* automatic gzip-ing of man files (I just added this one recently,
haven't tested it too much yet)
* /etc/postinstall created only if there's a postinstall.sh
* slightly modified 'list' output, which indents two spaces and prints
the leading slash, for use in the Cygwin README
* adds function 'depend' (straight from Igor); it would be nice to have
this indented two spaces, like for 'list', but I haven't done that yet
* adds options to call existing functions: 'configure' calls 'conf',
'make' calls 'build' (a typo I've made more than enough times :-),
'test' calls 'check'.
* adds option 'first' (never figured out what else to call it), which
calls 'mkdirs' 'spkg' and 'finish'. I use it for patching the src tree
and creating the -src tarball, which afterwards I call 'all' to build
the binary package in one step.
* some cleanup of \ instead of ; \, and other code cleanup.
I know you have a lot of patches to look at now, but there are a few
things here which have been very helpful to me, so I wanted to share
them while the topic is pending.
BTW--and I hope this isn't OT--if you have Qt3 installed from the
KDE-Cygwin project, then you might want to try my port of xxdiff,
available from my sf.net project site:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/cygwin-ports/xxdiff-3.0.2-1.tar.bz2?download
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/cygwin-ports/xxdiff-3.0.2-1-src.tar.bz2?download
Drop me a note (offlist of course) if you have any comments on xxdiff.
Thanks for your work!
Yaakov

Re: Segfault in _cygwin_dll_entry
Peter A. Castro wrote: In the case of zsh, it's completely cygwin stuff, no MS stuff. As is the case with LibGGI. Is it a known problem? No. If nothing obvious turns up in your initial efforts to scope the problem, you're probably going to be best off debugging into the Cygwin DLL to see where it crashes. One obvious thing to check for is whether the application tries to dynamically load a Cygwin-dependent DLL (which may result in attempting to load cygwin1.dll dynamically, and that is *not supported*). I have yet to fully understand just where the fault is, but I do know this: the .bss segment used by cygwin_dll_entry sometimes is not where it thinks it it. I found this while debugging the zsh rebase problem, and so my methods are a little quirky :) First, rebase the libzsh-4.1.1.dll and start gdb of zsh.exe, then run it. It'll break with a segfault occuring inside [EMAIL PROTECTED] The specific instruction is at [EMAIL PROTECTED]: (gdb) disassemble 0x6ff40951 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: call 0x6ff41390 cygwin_detach_dll 0x6ff40956 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov$0x,%eax 0x6ff4095b [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov%eax,0x7fd98610 0x6ff40960 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: jmp0x6ff408fb [EMAIL PROTECTED] 0x6ff40962 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov%ecx,0x7fd985e0 ~~ 0x6ff40968 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov$0x1,%eax 0x6ff4096d [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov%eax,0x7fd985f0 0x6ff40972 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov%edx,0x7fd98600 0x6ff40978 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: movl $0x7fd908a0,0x4(%esp,1) 0x6ff40980 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov%ecx,(%esp,1) 0x6ff40983 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: call 0x6ff413a0 cygwin_attach_dll So, what's up with 0x7fd985e0 ? gdb can't seem to resolve it nor access the address (hence the segfault): (gdb) info symbol 0x7fd985e0 No symbol matches 0x7fd985e0. (gdb) x/x 0x7fd985e0 0x7fd985e0: Cannot access memory at address 0x7fd985e0 Ok, so restore the un-rebased libzsh-4.1.1.dll, start gdb of zsh, set a break point at main and run it. It'll stop at the break point, no faults. Now, get the address of [EMAIL PROTECTED] and have a look at the same section of code: (gdb) info address [EMAIL PROTECTED] Symbol [EMAIL PROTECTED] is at 0x600f08d0 in a file compiled without debugging. (gdb) disassemble 0x600f0951 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: call 0x600f1390 cygwin_detach_dll 0x600f0956 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov$0x,%eax 0x600f095b [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov%eax,0x600f8610 0x600f0960 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: jmp0x600f08fb [EMAIL PROTECTED] 0x600f0962 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov%ecx,0x600f85e0 ~~ 0x600f0968 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov$0x1,%eax 0x600f096d [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov%eax,0x600f85f0 0x600f0972 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov%edx,0x600f8600 0x600f0978 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: movl $0x600f08a0,0x4(%esp,1) 0x600f0980 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov%ecx,(%esp,1) 0x600f0983 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: call 0x600f13a0 cygwin_attach_dll (gdb) info symbol 0x600f85e0 storedHandle in section .bss (gdb) info address storedHandle Symbol storedHandle is at 0x600f85e0 in a file compiled without debugging. (gdb) x/x 0x600f85e0 0x600f85e0 storedHandle: 0x Ah! So, in the un-rebased scenario storedHandle is in a .bss section. So, rebase libzsh-4.1.1.dll again, start gdb of zsh, and let it run. It'll break with a segfault, again, occuring inside [EMAIL PROTECTED] So, just where is storedHandle? (gdb) info address storedHandle Symbol storedHandle is at 0x6ff485e0 in a file compiled without debugging. (gdb) info symbol 0x6ff485e0 storedHandle in section .bss (gdb) x/x 0x6ff485e0 0x6ff485e0 storedHandle: 0x Ah, but the code thinks storedHandle is at 0x7fd985e0 (which isn't addressable)! It turns out that 0x6ff485e0 is the same location this part of the .bss was loaded at in the non-rebased scenario. So, where did things get messed up? Did Windows load the section and pass a bogus section address to the dll or is there a bug in the fixup code, or did cygwin_dll_entry() resolve the handle to the address incorrectly? I've looked at the code for cygwin_dll_entry and it's straight forward enough, so I just don't see where things could have gone wrong. Is this perhaps a quirk of the C++ environment or have we perhaps found a Windows bug? This indeed looks the same. Here's the disassembly from the segfault in LibGGI. 0x00354b21 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: call 0x354cf0 cygwin_detach_dll 0x00354b26 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov$0x,%eax 0x00354b2b [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov%eax,0xf06a6060 0x00354b30 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: jmp0x354acb [EMAIL PROTECTED] 0x00354b32 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov%ecx,0xf06a6030 ~~ 0x00354b38 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov$0x1,%eax 0x00354b3d [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov%eax,0xf06a6040

Hi, I have a strang proglem any help will be appriciated I have s program sending data VIA serial port between 2 machines. The program works fine when both are Linux. I use cygwin to port the program to windows (I run the program under Dos shell not Cygwin) and I have problem with the port setup part, the program cannot set the serial port parameters (speed, data bits etc).

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: gd-2.0.21-1/libgd2-2.0.21-1/libgd-devel-2.0.21-1
Hi A new version of 'gd/libgd2/libgd-devel' has been uploaded to a server near you. DESCRIPTION: A graphics library for fast image creation CYGWIN NEWS: * Build with cygwin-1.5.7 * Routine upgrade to 2.0.21 gd NEWS === What's new in version 2.0.21? * Version 2.0.21 adds a gdImageCreateFrom*Ptr family of functions which make it convenient to load an image in any GD-supported format directly from memory. * The new gdNewDynamicCtxEx function was added to support the easy implementation of the above functions and to correct a design problem which made life unpleasant for those passing in memory not originally allocated by gd to the gdNewDynamicCtx function by provoding a way to specify that gd should never free or reallocate a particular block of memory. The gdNewDynamicCtx function and its relatives, although still exported for ABI compatibility, are now deprecated except for internal use, in favor of gdImageCreateFromPngPtr and its relatives. * Version 2.0.21 includes a new patch from Ethan A. Merritt to correct a bug in the conditional compilation of support for symbol fonts in gdft.c. Symbol fonts should now work correctly. Thanks to Mr. Merritt. * Version 2.0.20 restores the gdFreeFontCache function, an undocumented function added in an earlier release which now simply calls gdFontCacheShutdown for backwards compatibility. This repairs build problems when compiling PHP against the latest gd. * Documentation improvements. What's new in version 2.0.20? * Version 2.0.20 restores the gdFreeFontCache function, an undocumented function added in an earlier release which now simply calls gdFontCacheShutdown for backwards compatibility. This repairs build problems when compiling PHP against the latest gd. What's new in version 2.0.19? * Version 2.0.19 restored extern declarations for the gd font pointers inadvertently removed in 2.0.18. What's new in version 2.0.18? * A Win32 binary distribution of bgd.dll, built with mingw32 and tested with win32 versions of the demo programs as console applications, is now available. * Semicolon rather than space used as the default separator of alternative font file paths in gdImageStringFT, for better compatibility with Windows and other environments where spaces are common in paths. * The circletexttest demo no longer fails to compile when JPEG support happens to be absent. What's new in version 2.0.17? Minor compilation and packaging problems with 2.0.16 were corrected. If 2.0.16 compiled without errors for you, then you don't need to upgrade to 2.0.17. What's new in version 2.0.16? * Thread safety for freetype text output. Background: all gd functions were already thread safe, as long as only one thread manipulates each image -- except for gdImageStringFT and gdImageStringFTEx. This is because of a shared freetype font cache. Sharing the cache between images is worthwhile, so configure now detects pthreads and uses it to wrap freetype text output in a critical section if available. There is also critical section support under WIN32. Those who wish to be strictly thread-safe should call the new function gdFontCacheSetup before allowing any thread to use freetype text calls. Otherwise this function is automatically invoked on the first use of freetype, with a very small but real chance of a race condition. * gdImageSquareToCircle performs a polar coordinate transform, returning a new image in which the X axis of the original has been remapped to theta (angle) and the Y axis of the original has been remapped to rho (distance from center). * gdImageStringFTCircle wraps text in a circle around a specified center point. This function takes advantage of gdImageSquareToCircle. The result is very smooth, although it takes some time to compute. Thanks to Steve Bassi for sponsoring this work. * gdImageSharpen, contributed by Paul Troughton. Thank you. * Christophe Thomas corrected gdft.c to include freetype header files in the way that is now mandatory in freetype 2.1.6 and above. * Gustavo Scotti fixed a memory leak in gdft.c. * Clipping rectangle respected in freetype text output. Thanks to Matt McNabb. * Paul den Dulk found a degenerate case that crashes gdImageToPalette. Fixed. * Optimization by Ilia Chipitsine to avoid wasting time with offscreen scanlines during polygon rasterization. * Optimized PNG saving by Phong Tran. Speeds up saves a little bit. * Bug in gdImageCopyResized fixed by Mao Morimoto. INSTALLATION: = To update your installation, click on the Install Cygwin now link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page.

This is also in the FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/faq_4.html#SEC59 Brian Starting with version 1.5.0, Cygwin provides a special managed mount mode that encodes, among other things, special names (including aux) so that they can be used in Cygwin. Note that this encoding will *not* make these names available to Windows programs. Also note that this mode is still experimental, and has to be set for a directory before it's populated. There is no easy way to convert an existing directory to managed mode (other than re-populating it).

IPv6 integration status in Cygwin
I was looking through the archives and noticed there hasn't been much recent work on integrating IPv6 into Cygwin. I've been using Jun-ya Kato's IPv6 extensions which work great for simple IPv6 apps - even multicast works for some simple cases. So I was wondering what are the current barriers preventing the integration of IPv6 into Cygwin and if there was anything that could be done to overcome those barriers. If full integration isn't possible or discouraged for whatever reason, I'd like to at least eventually see an IPv6 package option that can be selected during setup. Reply off-list if you wish.

If you're interested in helping to move this work along, then perhaps you want to start here: http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-08/msg01581.html Actually that's sort of what I already was suggesting above. Whether it be as a separate package or as a beta option for the DLL probably doesn't matter as long as there was a way to uninstall either way if that became necessary. Actually, I was pointing more at the general discussion and the embedded reference than anything else. The discussion of how it's distributed is less interesting overall than the content. This points to at least one on-going, albeit somewhat external, effort for melding Cygwin and IPv6. There may be others you can find as well. I think everyone would be interested in seeing IPv6 in Cygwin if you have interest in helping make that a reality. Yeah I'm willing to do any developmental work (time permitting) but want to get a feel for where things currently stand. The message you referred to in the archive is almost 1.5 years old so I suspect the environment has probably changed especially now that the IPv6 stack in current releases of Windows works out of the box. And the internal link to http://win6.jp/Cygwin/ states that there are still problems, particularly in some of MS's older, IPv6-challenged O/S versions. Cygwin still supports these less capable brethren generally and there is no plans to jettison support for them. Whatever is implemented here has to address any problems that may occur on these platforms. This site also contains a zip file with, among other things, a patch against cygwin 1.5.7-1.

Cygwin GNU make using MAKE_MODE=win VPATH/vpath issues
I have searched the mail archives and FAQ but have only found remotely similar issues to my problem. http://www.cygwin.com/cygwin/2002-03/msg01240.html The similar thread seems to be unresolved. Cygwin Version = 1.5.7-1 GNU make = 3.80 When running make with MAKE_MODE=win or make --win32 the conversion of DOS to POSIX paths in the VPATH variable and vpath directive seems to truncate when given a large set of paths. I have not had the chance to dig into the vpath code, but I believe that when a conversion to POSIX path is completed the complete path is treated as one unit. This means that given a set of paths used in VPATH/vpath the first DOS path is converted to POSIX form and the rest of the path up to character length N is left as is. N seems to be 256 characters - 1 path. I am using space separated paths as the semi-colon separators cause VPATH/vpath to be empty(GNU make manual states that for MS-DOS/MS-WIN semi-colon is valid). Example: vpath %.c C:\dos\path1 C:\dos\path2 ... C:\dos\path99 If make -p is run we see vpath %c /cygdrive/c/dos/path1;C:\dos\path2;C\dos\path3 If the original set of paths combined is longer than N(N=256?) then the path gets truncated. A simple workaround is to give multiple vpath directives as in: vpath %c C:\dos\path1 vpath %c C:\dos\path2 vpath %c C:\dos\path3 ... This method is inconsitant with my previous make/cygwin environment, and I wish to avoid it. The fact that only one path gets converted does not seem to confuse the make internals, however the truncation definitely causes issues. The fact that you can use multiple calls to vpath seems to point to conversion after the first path entry. Below is a test case and directory listing I used. I ran the following to obtain the results: make -r -p TEST_CASE=N tcN.txt (where N is testcase number) (Start of Directory Listing) drwxr-xr-x+ 3 kcieplak mkgroup- 4096 Feb 9 14:29 ThisIsAReallyLongDirectoryNameToOverFlowABuffer drwxr-xr-x+ 3 kcieplak mkgroup-0 Feb 9 14:05 dirlevel1 -rw-r--r--1 kcieplak mkgroup-0 Feb 9 15:23 dirlist.txt -rw-rw-rw-1 kcieplak mkgroup-0 Feb 9 15:01 level1.o -rw-rw-rw-1 kcieplak mkgroup-0 Feb 9 15:01 level2.o -rw-rw-rw-1 kcieplak mkgroup-0 Feb 9 15:01 level3.o -rw-rw-rw-1 kcieplak mkgroup-0 Feb 9 15:01 longPath1.o -rw-rw-rw-1 kcieplak mkgroup-0 Feb 9 15:01 longPath2.o -rwxr-xr-x1 kcieplak mkgroup- 2645 Feb 9 15:01 makefile -rwxr-xr-x1 kcieplak mkgroup- 18 Feb 9 15:03 results.txt -rw-r--r--1 kcieplak mkgroup-0 Feb 9 13:46 root.c -rw-r--r--1 kcieplak mkgroup-0 Feb 9 13:47 root.h -rw-rw-rw-1 kcieplak mkgroup-0 Feb 9 15:01 root.o -rw-r--r--1 kcieplak mkgroup-13780 Feb 9 14:59 tc1.txt -rw-r--r--1 kcieplak mkgroup-11179 Feb 9 14:59 tc2.txt -rw-r--r--1 kcieplak mkgroup-13745 Feb 9 14:59 tc3.txt -rw-r--r--1 kcieplak mkgroup-15863 Feb 9 14:59 tc4.txt -rw-r--r--1 kcieplak mkgroup-18296 Feb 9 15:01 tc5.txt ./ThisIsAReallyLongDirectoryNameToOverFlowABuffer: total 8 drwxr-xr-x+ 2 kcieplak mkgroup-0 Feb 9 14:23 ThisIsTheSecondReallyLongDirectoryNameToOverFlowABuffer -rw-r--r--1 kcieplak mkgroup-0 Feb 9 14:23 longPath1.c -rw-r--r--1 kcieplak mkgroup-0 Feb 9 14:23 longPath1.h -rw-r--r--1 kcieplak mkgroup- 7822 Feb 9 14:29 out.txt ./ThisIsAReallyLongDirectoryNameToOverFlowABuffer/ThisIsTheSecondReallyLongD irectoryNameToOverFlowABuffer: total 0 -rw-r--r--1 kcieplak mkgroup-0 Feb 9 14:23 longPath2.c -rw-r--r--1 kcieplak mkgroup-0 Feb 9 14:23 longPath2.h ./dirlevel1: total 0 drwxr-xr-x+ 3 kcieplak mkgroup-0 Feb 9 14:10 dirlevel2 -rw-r--r--1 kcieplak mkgroup-0 Feb 9 13:46 level1.c -rw-r--r--1 kcieplak mkgroup-0 Feb 9 13:46 levle1.h ./dirlevel1/dirlevel2: total 0 drwxr-xr-x+ 2 kcieplak mkgroup-0 Feb 9 14:10 dirlevel3 -rw-r--r--1 kcieplak mkgroup-0 Feb 9 13:46 level2.c -rw-r--r--1 kcieplak mkgroup-0 Feb 9 13:46 level2.h ./dirlevel1/dirlevel2/dirlevel3: total 0 -rw-r--r--1 kcieplak mkgroup-0 Feb 9 14:10 level3.c -rw-r--r--1 kcieplak mkgroup-0 Feb 9 14:10 level3.h (End of Directory Listing) (Start of makefile) #Define all directory paths using DOS style notation ROOT_DIR :=C:\vpath_test LEVEL1_DIR := $(ROOT_DIR)\dirlevel1 LEVEL2_DIR := $(LEVEL1_DIR)\dirlevel2 LEVEL3_DIR := $(LEVEL2_DIR)\dirlevel3 LONG_PATH_NAME1 := $(ROOT_DIR)\ThisIsAReallyLongDirectoryNameToOverFlowABuffer LONG_PATH_NAME2 := $(LONG_PATH_NAME1)\ThisIsTheSecondReallyLongDirectoryNameToOverFlowABuffer .PHONY: clean #default test case TEST_CASE := 1 # Here are combinations of VPATH/vpath that give different results when using #
Re: 1.5.7: make hangs on XP (with HT)
I've been trying to narrow the problem I've been having with make (-j) and processes locking up. And I've made some progress. First, this happens with 1.5.6 - 1.5.7 (and every snapshot in-between). I've tried this test on 3 configurations: WinXP (HyperThreaded): fails quickly (between 20 seconds and 3 minutes) Win2000 (Not HT): fails slowly (between 6 minutes and 20 minutes) WinXP (HT turned off): does not fail (ran it for about an hour and it was fine).

It is still running, but it sometimes (2x) writes: Just FYI, I build a cygwin dll from current cvs (last winsup/cygwin/ChangeLog entry 2004-02-09 Ralf H.) with debugging enabled and rerun this script.

Re: RE : 1.0.0 : CVS Checkout via SSH = error : no such repository
Please configure your mailer to not quote raw e-mail addresses in replies. Let's not make the spam harvesters' life easier. FWIW, I can't reproduce your problem. I have cvs running perfectly over ssh, both as a client and as a server. At this point I'm out of ideas, I can only make some WAGs. Check the .cvsrc on the server -- does that contain something that could interfere with the cvs server command? Why are you using PuTTY? Try connecting using the regular Cygwin ssh. Also try setting CVS_SERVER to cvs -t and seeing if that sheds any light on what's happening. Do you perhaps have two versions of cvs on your system, and the wrong one gets called on the server side (try 'ssh sessioncvs which cvs')?

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: cygipc-2.03-2
cygipc and cygutils have some incompatibilities with cygwin-1.5.7; this updated version resolves those conflicts. Note that you will probably need to re-install cygwin-1.5.7 after upgrading cygipc -- this is an unfortunate consequence of the pre-existing conflict between cygipc-[OLDVERSION] and cygwin-1.5.6+. A list of the specific changes ( for both cygipc-2.03-2 and cygutils-1.2.4-1 ) appears below. This is, in all likelihood, the LAST release of cygipc. The cygserver implementation now shipped with cygwin-1.5.7 and later is a much better, and better-supported, implementation; all existing packages which rely on cygipc should begin transitioning to cygserver. For package maintainers and developers, this will probably boil down to, in most case, simply: (a) recompiling, (b) installing and running the cygserver daemon, (c) changing documentation, and (d) getting used to answering new questions from your users about what happened to cygipc g To update your installation, click on the Install Cygwin now link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Then, run setup and answer all of the questions. !! NOTE: you will need to run setup TWICE. First, update/install cygipc-2.03-1 and cygutils-1.2.4-1. Let setup run to completion. Then, run setup AGAIN -- and this time, choose reinstall for cygwin-1.5.7 (or whatever is your current version of the cygwin package). !!

IF (and only if) /usr/include/sys/ipc.h and friends do not exist, then a postinstall script creates symlinks to the cygipc versions. This means if you really want to be sure that you're compiling/linking against cygipc, you need to add -I/usr/include/cygipc to your compile command. 3) cygutils no longer provides ipcs or ipcrm, as (a) cygipc now provides cygipc-based versions, and (b) cygwin itself provides cygserver-based versions. 4) cygutils provides cygserver-based versions of semtool msgtool shmtool semstat 5) cygutils provides 'ipck' and 'ipckcygipc' -- a useful shell script for checking on/killing IPC objects. Obviously, one uses the cygserver tools, the other uses the cygipc tools. 6) Cygipc will be going into deep freeze -- still supported for legacy applications, but all applications are highly encouraged to switch to the FAR better implementation provided by cygserver. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

entry point __getreent not found errors with sshd and inetd
Hi everyone, I have been attempting to setup sshd and inetd, and have consistently received entry point not found errors when both try to execute (specifically: The procedure entry point __getreent could not be located in the dynamic link library cygwin1.dll). I have googled this problem and seen recommendations to ensure I have the latest package versions, to reboot, and to ensure that I do not have multiple copies of cygwin1.dll. I have done all of these and continue to get the error. I am running Windows XP Home. Is there anything else I should try? What are the possible causes of this problem?

Re: cyclical dependencies in setup.ini?
Dependencies like this are all over the place inside of setup.ini - where's an accurate representation of what needs to get compiled first? How do you compile from scratch? These are package installation dependencies. If you're trying to build the Cygwin DLL, visit http://cygwin.com/contrib.html for info. If you're trying to build some other package, its configure script will tell you the libraries it depends on. You can then go looking in http://cygwin.com/packages/ to find the packages you need to install if you don't already have them. ok, right, but I want to build versus the snapshots of code; not versus CVS. For one thing, cvs access and ssh access to the outside world is blocked here from work, and http access is controlled through a javascript-thingy which would be difficult (so I'm told) to integrate with CVS. Its also nice to know that you are building against a given numbered release. If possible, I'd like to avoid having to run across dependencies inside of configure files, hence I'm hoping that somewhere its documented (centrally or in someone's head) which packages are dependent on other packages.. Ed ( ps - I'm looking at CVS right now, and it looks like there are configure/makefiles common to all of winsup but not part of any given package.

There is only one reason for this: You have an older version of the DLL on your system. If you have googled, you should have seen that every single time someone says I don't have an older version it eventually turns out that they do. The suggested way of finding the errant DLL is to do something like: c: cd \ dir /s cygwin1.dll/s and delete the older dll. It's probably in your windows system or system32 directory. And, before you argue that you already tried all that and that there must be some other reason, let me say it again: There is no other reason. As Larry says in another post, the other thing you can do is *attach* cygcheck output to a message here if you are still having problems. That may help us find your other DLL. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

Like I said I want to do it with as few deps as possible, if possible just g++ and make, and shell. As for the reason *why* I'm doing this from scratch, well, it gives me freedom to encorporate packages that aren't technically 'cygwin' packages, host patches that may or may not become part of a standard distributions, and build - or attempt to build - via other compilers and linkers.

Re: Segfault in _cygwin_dll_entry
On Mon, 9 Feb 2004 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Peter A. Castro wrote: In the case of zsh, it's completely cygwin stuff, no MS stuff. As is the case with LibGGI. The difference, althought it really doesn't matter, is that libzsh-4.1.1.dll was rebased, while cygggi-2.dll isn't. Something in the makeup of cygggi-2.dll causes the same condition as when libzsh-4.1.1.dll is rebased. Is it a known problem? No. If nothing obvious turns up in your initial efforts to scope the problem, you're probably going to be best off debugging into the Cygwin DLL to see where it crashes. One obvious thing to check for is whether the application tries to dynamically load a Cygwin-dependent DLL (which may result in attempting to load cygwin1.dll dynamically, and that is *not supported*). I have yet to fully understand just where the fault is, but I do know this: the .bss segment used by cygwin_dll_entry sometimes is not where it thinks it it. I found this while debugging the zsh rebase problem, and so my methods are a little quirky :) First, rebase the libzsh-4.1.1.dll and start gdb of zsh.exe, then run it. It'll break with a segfault occuring inside [EMAIL PROTECTED] The specific instruction is at [EMAIL PROTECTED]: (gdb) disassemble 0x6ff40951 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: call 0x6ff41390 cygwin_detach_dll 0x6ff40956 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov$0x,%eax 0x6ff4095b [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov%eax,0x7fd98610 0x6ff40960 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: jmp0x6ff408fb [EMAIL PROTECTED] 0x6ff40962 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov%ecx,0x7fd985e0 ~~ 0x6ff40968 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov$0x1,%eax 0x6ff4096d [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov%eax,0x7fd985f0 0x6ff40972 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov%edx,0x7fd98600 0x6ff40978 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: movl $0x7fd908a0,0x4(%esp,1) 0x6ff40980 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: mov%ecx,(%esp,1) 0x6ff40983 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: call 0x6ff413a0 cygwin_attach_dll So, what's up with 0x7fd985e0 ? gdb can't seem to resolve it nor access the address (hence the segfault): (gdb) info symbol 0x7fd985e0 No symbol matches 0x7fd985e0. (gdb) x/x 0x7fd985e0 0x7fd985e0: Cannot access memory at address 0x7fd985e0 Ok, so restore the un-rebased libzsh-4.1.1.dll, start gdb of zsh, set a break point at main and run it. It'll stop at the break point, no faults.

It'll break with a segfault, again, occuring inside [EMAIL PROTECTED] So, just where is storedHandle?

It turns out that 0x6ff485e0 is the same location this part of the .bss was loaded at in the non-rebased scenario. So, where did things get messed up? Did Windows load the section and pass a bogus section address to the dll or is there a bug in the fixup code, or did cygwin_dll_entry() resolve the handle to the address incorrectly? I've looked at the code for cygwin_dll_entry and it's straight forward enough, so I just don't see where things could have gone wrong. Is this perhaps a quirk of the C++ environment or have we perhaps found a Windows bug? This indeed looks the same.

Updated: cygipc-2.03-2
cygipc and cygutils have some incompatibilities with cygwin-1.5.7; this updated version resolves those conflicts. Note that you will probably need to re-install cygwin-1.5.7 after upgrading cygipc -- this is an unfortunate consequence of the pre-existing conflict between cygipc-[OLDVERSION] and cygwin-1.5.6+. A list of the specific changes ( for both cygipc-2.03-2 and cygutils-1.2.4-1 ) appears below. This is, in all likelihood, the LAST release of cygipc. The cygserver implementation now shipped with cygwin-1.5.7 and later is a much better, and better-supported, implementation; all existing packages which rely on cygipc should begin transitioning to cygserver. For package maintainers and developers, this will probably boil down to, in most case, simply: (a) recompiling, (b) installing and running the cygserver daemon, (c) changing documentation, and (d) getting used to answering new questions from your users about what happened to cygipc g To update your installation, click on the Install Cygwin now link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Then, run setup and answer all of the questions. !! NOTE: you will need to run setup TWICE. First, update/install cygipc-2.03-1 and cygutils-1.2.4-1. Let setup run to completion. Then, run setup AGAIN -- and this time, choose reinstall for cygwin-1.5.7 (or whatever is your current version of the cygwin package). !!

IF (and only if) /usr/include/sys/ipc.h and friends do not exist, then a postinstall script creates symlinks to the cygipc versions. This means if you really want to be sure that you're compiling/linking against cygipc, you need to add -I/usr/include/cygipc to your compile command. 3) cygutils no longer provides ipcs or ipcrm, as (a) cygipc now provides cygipc-based versions, and (b) cygwin itself provides cygserver-based versions. 4) cygutils provides cygserver-based versions of semtool msgtool shmtool semstat 5) cygutils provides 'ipck' and 'ipckcygipc' -- a useful shell script for checking on/killing IPC objects. Obviously, one uses the cygserver tools, the other uses the cygipc tools. 6) Cygipc will be going into deep freeze -- still supported for legacy applications, but all applications are highly encouraged to switch to the FAR better implementation provided by cygserver.
