bug#60796: 27.1; Opening file ending in .sh inside a directory ending in .deb causes hang/100% thread usage

[Casey Connor via Bug reports for GNU Emacs, the Swiss army knife of text editors]

When I do this:

$ mkdir test.deb
$ cd test.deb
$ emacs -Q test.sh

...emacs opens but is hung: 100% usage of a core, apparently
indefinitely. So far it seems to be the case that the directory must end
in ".deb" and the file edited must end in ".sh".

This issue seems to have gone away for my emacs 29 build.  Will try and
see if 27.2 has this issue.

I cannot reproduce this, neither with Emacs 27.1 nor with Emacs 28.
But I'm not on Debian.

Oops, sorry, I just noticed the Cc on these emails that I should have 
been using. Repeating what I said in (accidental) privacy:

I installed Ubuntu Server 22.10 in a VM, booted, installed emacs-nox 
package from repo, did mkdir asdf.deb, cd asdf.deb, emacs -Q, and the 
problem happens there, in case that's useful. (v27.1)

I realized that it doesn't matter what you are editing (if anything), it 
just needs to be opened inside a directory ending in .deb.

Maybe there are local Debian changes?  I suggest to report this to the
distro first.

Directories with a file name "*.deb" are regarded as file archives, files
inside such a directory are opened via tramp-archive (on GNU/Linux).

You could disable this feature by setting tramp-archive-enabled to nil.

See (info "(tramp) Archive file names") for details.

I can reproduce the problem in my Emacs 27 branch from the Savannah repo
built on non-Debian GNU/Linux; I cannot reproduce it with Emacs 26 or 28
and later.  (Emacs 26 does not recognize tramp-archive-enabled, in 27
and later it does and the default value it t.)

[Casey Connor via Bug reports for GNU Emacs, the Swiss army knife of text editors]

Thanks -- does that mean I should not report to Debian as a bug there?

The issue seems to happen with any of the extensions that tramp-archive 
recognizes, not just .deb.

Despite, it should not block the computer. Your test shall be more
conclusive if it is really Debian archive or not.

I can't reproduce it on Parabola GNU/Linux-libre and I can just guess
this may be because there are no Debian tools.

tramp-archive.el was added to Tramp 2.4 (Emacs 27) only, so it couldn't
be a problem in Emacs 26.

With the given scenario, I cannot reproduce it in either Emacs 27, 28,
29 and 30.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ mkdir test.deb
$ cd test.deb
$ emacs -Q test.sh
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Note that there was a similar report, bug#30293, which was fixed in
Emacs 27. So in general the scenario shall work. If possible, I'd like
to see a backtrace for the Emacs 27 case.

Note also, that there were autoload problems in the past for
tramp-archive.el (which should be fixed now). So would it work in your
case, if you call instead

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ emacs -Q -l tramp-archive test.sh
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Ah, ok.

Do you mean from gdb?  If so, see below.

This doesn't prevent the freeze and 100% core usage for me.  I attached
the emacs process to gdb and append the backtrace below.  If this is not
what you want, or if you want me to execute specific gdb commands,
please let me know what I should do.

Hmm, no, it doesn't tell me anything. Emacs is stuck somewhere in alloc.

What I've hoped is that you could stop Emacs by hitting C-g, and show a
Lisp backtrace.

No, Emacs is totally locked up and repeatedly hitting C-g or ESC doesn't
help.

Strange. As said, I don't see it in my Emacs 27 build of the git tree.

Given, that you (and I) haven't seen the problem in newer Emacs/Tramp
versions, I don't know what to test else. Perhaps we shall assume that
it is fixed meanwhile (although I hate it not to know the reason)?

It's good that it's apparently not an issue for current Emacs, yet it
does seem odd that in Emacs 27 some see the problem and others don't,
and even if it has been fixed (or just disappeared), it would be
interesting to track down the problem.  If anyone has any other ideas
how to go about that, I'm willing to try them.  (But please not
bisecting between Emacs 27 and 28, I don't have time for that.)

One workaround we could offer is using the current Tramp from ELPA
(2.6.0) with Emacs 27. Do you want to test this combination?

I installed Tramp from ELPA, then invoked Emacs 27 as before but instead
of loading tramp-archive.elc from the Emacs 27 build I loaded the one
from ELPA.  But Emacs 27 still immediately locked up.  So do I have to
do something else?

I believe I got it.

There is bug#48476, which is exactly the same as described here in this
report. That time I've prepared a patch (for the emacs-27 branch), which
is installed locally on my system. But it wasn't pushed to the Emacs
repo on savannah, likely because no further Emacs 27 release was planned
at this time:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
albinus@gandalf emacs-27]$ git status
On branch emacs-27
Your branch and 'origin/emacs-27' have diverged,
and have 1 and 37 different commits each, respectively.
  (use "git pull" to merge the remote branch into yours)

Changes not staged for commit:
  (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed)
  (use "git restore <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)
	modified:   doc/emacs/misc.texi
	modified:   lisp/simple.el

Untracked files:
  (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
	src/fingerprint.c

no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a")
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

That's why you see it in your Emacs 27 instance, and I don't. bug#48476
has been closed for Emacs 28.1.

So there's nothing left to do for us. I'll merge bug#60796 with
bug#48476, and the bad News is that one must use Emacs 28 for this
special use case.

Ah, good sleuthing!

Yeah, or convince the distributor to patch their version of Emacs 27, or
update to Emacs 28 :-)
