Running 'c-context-line-break' sometimes adds the line break to the
previous comment, this seems to depend on the internal state
since it doesn't happen every time.

Tested in 27.1, and current master, this has been an issue for some
years IIRC.

Take this example C file:

---- BEGIN `example.c`
/*
 * A
 */

/*
 * B
 */
---- END

- Move the cursor the end-of-line above 'A'.
- M-x, c-context-line-break

----  `example.c` (with newline above 'A', as expected).
/*
 *
 * A
 */

/*
 * B
 */
---- END


- Move the cursor the end-of-line above 'B'.
- M-x, c-context-line-break


----  `example.c` (there should be newline above 'B', but there is
not).
/*
 *
 * A

 */

/*
 * B
 */
---- END


----  `example.c` (EXPECTED RESULT)
/*
 *
 * A
 */

/*
 *
 * B
 */
---- END

Instead of a newline being added above 'B', a newline is added
to the previous comment after A, with no leading character.

----

I looked into the bug and this is caused by 'c-literal-limits'
returning an invalid range (where the beginning is correct, but the
end is the end of the previous comment, instead of the end of the
current comment).
Printing 'c-literal-limits' before calling 'c-context-line-break'
shows this error, temporarily advising 'c-literal-limits' to return
the beginning/end of the comment is a workaround which
gives the 'EXPECTED RESULT'.

Hello, Campbell.

Thank you indeed for taking the trouble to report this bug.

Yes.  The internal state it depends on is a cache for things like
c-literal-limits (as you point out below).  To make the bug show itself,
first type a space in the "A" comment somewhere (which clears the cache
entries for any points after the place of the change), then move point
into the B comment and type M-j.

Thank you very much indeed for taking the debugging so far.  That was
exceptionally helpful.

What was happening was CC Mode read a cache entry, and because there was
no entry for the "B" comment, got that for the "A" comment.  It later
wrongly used the END element of that cache entry, without testing
properly that it was valid.

Would you please try the following patch in CC Mode.  After applying it,
you need byte compile only cc-engine.el (which is in
emacs/lisp/progmodes/).  In the unlikely event you would like any help
with the patching or byte compilation, feel free to send me private
email.

Having applied it, please test out the problem in your real code, and
confirm that the bug is, in fact, fixed, or alternatively tell us that
there are still glitches with it.  Thanks!

Hi Alan, thanks for fixing this,

Tested this both with `emacs -Q` and my personal (evil) config.

When your fix is applied, in both cases this works as expected.

Thanks indeed for testing this.  I have committed the fix to the
emacs-27 branch at savannah, and am closing the bug with this post.

Great, any reason this isn't in master?
