quit-window doesn't work properly with the master branch.

To see the issue with emacs -Q, in any git repo:

* C-x v L
* C-x 1 (if the screen is split).
* Hitting 'q' now doesn't close the window.

Looks like commit 0a681590268a4039f95a5a919b6b6d4f4e880d4c is
the problem.

Sorry about that.

I think there is still edges cases :

with emacs -Q

;; set some rules
(setq display-buffer-alist
     '(("\\*\\(Backtrace\\)\\*"
       (display-buffer-in-side-window)
       (window-height . 0.2)
       (side . bottom))
       ("\\*\\(Messages\\)\\*"
       (display-buffer-in-side-window)
       (window-height . 0.2)
       (side . bottom))))

;; display the *Messages* buffer
(view-echo-area-messages)

;; trigger a logical error to display the *Backtrace* buffer
(> vim emacs)

;; trigger a quit-restore-window by calling kill-buffer in a 
   dedicated window
(kill-buffer (get-buffer "*Backtrace*"))
;; the dedicated property has been cleaned from the window,
;; yet *Messages* is displayed in place of this window !
(kill-buffer (get-buffer "*Messages*"))
;; calling kill-buffer in a non-dedicated window,
;; does not trigger quit-restore-window anymore
;; resulting in an undesirable buffer being displayed in place.


What is the desired behavior of a dedicated window here ?
Must *Messages* be displayed after we killed *Backtrace* in the 
first place ?
I am suspecting that the locale value of `kill-buffer-hook' in 
*Backtrace* is interfering with this test but I have difficulties 
to find its human readable form.

I think so, yes.

I doubt that.  It's probably due to my fix for Bug#48493.  When
*Messages* is killed, the window should have no more previous buffers to
display and we should be able to kill it.  But `switch-to-prev-buffer'
shows the "next" buffer instead.  Try to come up with a solution that
does not reintroduce Bug#48493 and deletes the window when no previous
buffer is found.

Then I suppose that the dedicated window parameter must be 
restored
after a kill-buffer accordingly; this solve the previous test but
ask for more modifications.

I am testing a version of this.

I can modify to `switch-to-prev-buffer' (and its sibling
`switch-to-prev-buffer') to return nil instead of the current 
buffer;
however the result is the same : the window rest in place with an
undesired buffer inside.
Note that we may want that anyway if it can solve the cases where
`quit-restore-window' display the same buffer again.

I am still looking to find what may be messing the prev-buffers 
list.

Who makes any of these buffers dedicared?

Try to experiment with an idiom like

       (if prev-buffer
           ;; If a previous buffer exists, try to switch to it.  If that
           ;; fails for whatever reason, try to delete the window.
           (unless (switch-to-prev-buffer window bury-or-kill)
             (window--delete window nil (eq bury-or-kill 'kill)))
         ;; If no previous buffer exists, try to delete the window.  If
         ;; that fails for whatever reason, try to switch to some other
         ;; buffer.
         (unless (window--delete window nil (eq bury-or-kill 'kill))
           (switch-to-prev-buffer window bury-or-kill)))

All windows created by `display-buffer-in-side-window' have the 
state
(dedicated . side)

Tiers libraries such as the module popup from Doom emacs come at 
this
subject with the rule :

--quitting/killing a buffer in a side window,
always delete its window--
(it is done with a local value of kill-buffer-hook installed from
their own `display-buffer-alist')

instead of the rule :

--quitting/killing a buffer in any window,
1 switch to its previous buffer
2 delete the window if no available
3 switch to another buffer if the window is not deletable--

Which is what I think you are asking and IMHO ask to deal with the
dedicated window state to not cripple side-windows.

Thanks for the snippet, I think I am confused by this window 
dedication,
please help me to clarify my mind before I try to implement a 
solution
with or without the dedicated window state.

You're right, I forgot that side windows are by default dedicated to
their buffers.

The dedicated flag in a side window serves to prevent "normal" buffer
display to "avoid" that window.  A side window may be reused for showing
another buffer only by `display-buffer-in-side-window'.  This sense of
dedication is somewhat different from the normal sense where killing the
buffer always attempts to delete its dedicated windows (and maybe their
frames too) first.

Hence it is perfectly valid to switch to the previous buffer here - any
such buffer was meant to be displayed in that side window.  It would be,
however, invalid to switch to some buffer that was never shown in that
window here.  Note in this context that we can always delete a side
window, a side window can never be alone on its frame.

 > Thanks for the snippet, I think I am confused by this window dedication,
 > please help me to clarify my mind before I try to implement a solution
 > with or without the dedicated window state.

So maybe something like this might cut it:

       (if (and prev-buffer (memq (window-dedicated-p window) '(nil side)))
           ;; If a previous buffer exists, try to switch to it.  If that
           ;; fails for whatever reason, try to delete the window.
           (unless (switch-to-prev-buffer window bury-or-kill)
             (window--delete window nil (eq bury-or-kill 'kill)))
         ;; If no previous buffer exists, try to delete the window.  If
         ;; that fails for whatever reason, try to switch to some other
         ;; buffer.
         (unless (window--delete window nil (eq bury-or-kill 'kill))
           (switch-to-prev-buffer window bury-or-kill)))

Tell me whether this works with DOOM's `kill-buffer-hook'.

If you feel that it's more natural to delete the window in the case at
hand, we can consider that too.  But suppose someone uses such a side
window for something more permanent like a compile or shell buffer and
the backtrace buffer kicked in only accidentally, then deleting the side
window when killing the backtrace buffer might not be a good idea.

Yes.

I can test the changes against a version of DOOM, yes. For the draft below
it seems to be ok, but keep in mind that their library bypass these parts
window.el

Not at all. For me it is ok with switch-to-prev-buffer, if users want to delete
the window and/or buffer explicitly, they have commands for that. In the case of
DOOM it is implemented as a workaround against some bugs, it is
explicated in :

(+popup/quit-window)
Documentation
The regular quit-window sometimes kills the popup buffer and switches to a
buffer that shouldn't be in a popup. We prevent that by remapping quit-window
to this commmand.


So here is the *draft* that pass the previous cases of this thread.
`replace-buffer-in-windows' take care of killing buffers.
I restore the dedication of side-window because :
1. it seems to me it is the right think to do, and it prevents 2.
2. I lost the trace when we kill a buffer and no previous-buffer is found
but  still an undesirable buffer replace the current,
is it in the C part ? I can't inspect C...

Maybe this is precisely the behavior you're trying to fix and their fix
won't then be needed any more.

This is quite a weakness of the present mechanism and I think you got
it right.  To summarize your approach:

- When we have to replace a buffer in a side window, that window's
   dedicated status is 'side', and some other buffer is found that was
   shown there before (it's on the list of that window's _previous_
   buffers) we show that other buffer in the window and make sure to
   restore the window's dedicated status to 'side'.

- Otherwise delete the window.  Deleting the window is always possible
   and we have to make sure one thing - never show in a side window a
   buffer that has not been shown before in that window.  This rule
   should take care of the DOOM workaround.

And users who override the behavior sketched here by setting the side
window's dedicated status to t should have the window deleted (since
that is always possible).

Have I got it right?

 > 2. I lost the trace when we kill a buffer and no previous-buffer is found
 > but  still an undesirable buffer replace the current,
 > is it in the C part ? I can't inspect C...

IIUC you mean the one in `kill-buffer' in buffer.c.  `kill-buffer' first
calls

   replace_buffer_in_windows (buffer);

which simply calls the Lisp function `replace-buffer-in-windows' for
buffer (the buffer to kill) and later on does

   replace_buffer_in_windows_safely (buffer);

That last call will show another buffer in a window if and only if
`replace-buffer-in-windows' failed to do its work which is an unusual
case - one that should _not_ have happened.  But we must, in C, simply
make sure that such a failure gets caught since showing a dead buffer in
a live window can crash Emacs.  So if replace_buffer_in_windows_safely
shows another buffer, then something in `replace-buffer-in-windows' was
already broken before and we need not bother to clean up things.

We have to document it in the Elisp manual.

Yes.
Maybe it is a step toward implementing the `soft' dedication that 
is mentioned in the comments.
Thanks you for the explanations.

> We have to document it in the Elisp manual.

Here another draft with the info manual changes:

From what I have tested so far, there were more functions that 
needed to preserve the side dedication. I put in my modeline a 
token for the window dedication and it was quite useful to spot 
them (maybe not the clever way but worked). I also grepped into 
window.el to see if I was missing something without more success.

There is a change in the indentation of `quit-restore-window' and 
I don't know if there is convention in such cases.

Subject: [PATCH] Improve handling of dedicated side flag when quitting window

Following the discussion on (Bug#48493), restore the dedicated side
flag of windows when a buffer change in the window, update the
documentation.

* doc/lispref/windows.texi
  (Buffers and Windows): mention the exception of side windows and
add a reference.
  (Buffer Display Action Alists): explicit that
`display-buffer-in-side-window' is dedicating to side by default.
  (Dedicated Windows): add the case (4) and explicit its meaning,
add a reference.
  (Displaying Buffers in Side Windows): move the
switch-to-(prev|next)-buffer paragraph into a new item to emphasize
the special meaning of dedication for side windows.

* lisp/window.el
  (set-window-buffer-start-and-point): restore side dedication.
  (switch-to-prev-buffer): corrige the return value that should be
nil instead of the same buffer in case of no changement.
  (switch-to-next-buffer): corrige the return value that should be
nil instead of the same buffer in case of no changement.
  (delete-windows-on): restore side dedication.
  (replace-buffer-in-windows): update the docstring, restore side
dedication.
  (quit-restore-window): rearrange the logic so hard dedicated windows
are eventually deleted first, restore the side dedication, try to
`switch-to-prev-buffer' before deleting a side window, fix (Bug#48367)

Sorry I forgot a last fix on `quit-restore-window' in the last 
message please consider instead this one :
(because switch-to-prev/next-buffer must return nil in case of no 
available buffer, we can use it in conditional and simplify the 
code, also the previous version was changing the behavior of some 
windows by deleting them when it was not necessary)

Subject: [PATCH] Improve handling of side dedicated flag

Following the discussion on (Bug#48493), restore the dedicated side
flag of windows when a buffer change in the window, update the
documentation.

* doc/lispref/windows.texi
  (Buffers and Windows): mention the exception of side windows and
add a reference.
  (Buffer Display Action Alists): explicit that
`display-buffer-in-side-window' is dedicating to side by default.
  (Dedicated Windows): add the case (4) and explicit its meaning,
add a reference.
  (Displaying Buffers in Side Windows): move the
switch-to-(prev|next)-buffer paragraph into a new item to emphasize
the special meaning of dedication for side windows.

* lisp/window.el
  (set-window-buffer-start-and-point): restore side dedication.
  (switch-to-prev-buffer): corrige the return value that should be
nil instead of the same buffer in case of no changement.
  (switch-to-next-buffer): corrige the return value that should be
nil instead of the same buffer in case of no changement.
  (delete-windows-on): restore side dedication.
  (replace-buffer-in-windows): update the docstring, restore side
dedication.
  (quit-restore-window): rearrange the logic so hard dedicated windows
are eventually deleted first, restore the side dedication, in the
final case try to `switch-to-prev-buffer' before deleting a window
fix (Bug#48367)

Thanks.  Once again, I leave it to Martin and others to comment on
most of the essence of the patch, and provide here only few minor
nits:

Again, this log message is not formatted according to our rules.  It
should look like this:

* doc/lispref/windows.texi (Buffers and Windows): Mention the
exception of side windows and add a reference.
(Buffer Display Action Alists): Say explicitly that
'display-buffer-in-side-window' is dedicating to side by default.
(Dedicated Windows): Add case (4) and explain its meaning, add
a reference.
(Displaying Buffers in Side Windows): Move the paragraph about
'switch-to-(prev|next)-buffer' into a new item to emphasize the
special meaning of dedication for side windows.

Note that I also fixed the wording a bit, and that our conventions for
quoting in log entries is 'like this'.

Here' it is quite important that the reader understands what are "side
windows", otherwise he/she will not understand the exception.
However, "side window" was not yet described in the manual by this
point, and its description is not in this section.  In these cases,
always include a cross-reference to where the term is described, like
this:

  With the exception of side windows (@pxref{Side Windows}), any ...

A comma is missing before "but".  Also, please use "has" instead of
"have".

No need for "note" here.

Here you could use the 'dedicated-side' solution you used below in
`replace-buffer-in-windows'.

+    (or ;; first try to delete dedicated windows that are not side windows
+     (and dedicated (not (eq dedicated 'side))
+          (window--delete window 'dedicated (eq bury-or-kill 'kill)))
+     (cond
+       ((and (not prev-buffer)
+             (eq (nth 1 quit-restore) 'tab)
+             (eq (nth 3 quit-restore) buffer))
+        (tab-bar-close-tab)
+        ;; If the previously selected window is still alive, select it.
+        (when (window-live-p (nth 2 quit-restore))
+          (select-window (nth 2 quit-restore))))

What's wrong with putting the first disjunct into the conditional as in
the below?  In general, always try to avoid larger indentation changes -
they can make forensics cumbersome while bisecting.

      (cond
       ;; First try to delete dedicated windows that are not side windows
       ((and dedicated (not (eq dedicated 'side))
             (window--delete window 'dedicated (eq bury-or-kill 'kill))))

              (eq (nth 1 quit-restore) 'tab)
              (eq (nth 3 quit-restore) buffer))

BTW, how's your paperwork process proceeding?

The difference is a window dedicated with flag t may not be 
deletable, and in this case, we want it
to pass through the others conditionals branch of 
quit-restore-window, so it can try to use the
'quit-restore parameter, close the tab or to fallback in t, etc.
Explaining it makes me thing I could use 'window-deletable-p' in 
its conditional and ...
I guess, problem solved

In this revision I also restored the use of (select-window (nth 2 
quit-restore)) on the branch t.

> BTW, how's your paperwork process proceeding?

I am currently exchanging with the clerk to complete it.

Subject: [PATCH] Improve handling of side dedicated flag

Following the discussion on (Bug#48493), restore the dedicated side
flag of windows when a buffer change in the window, update the
documentation.

* doc/lispref/windows.texi (Buffers and Windows): Mention the
exception of side windows and add a reference.
(Buffer Display Action Alists): Say explicitly that
'display-buffer-in-side-window' is dedicating to side by default.
(Dedicated Windows): Add case (4) and explain its meaning, add
a reference.
(Displaying Buffers in Side Windows): Move the paragraph about
'switch-to-(prev|next)-buffer' into a new item to emphasize the
special meaning of dedication for side windows.

* lisp/window.el (set-window-buffer-start-and-point): Restore
side dedication.
(switch-to-prev-buffer): Correct the return value that should be
nil instead of the same buffer in case of no changement.
(switch-to-next-buffer): Correct the return value that should be
nil instead of the same buffer in case of no changement.
(delete-windows-on): Restore side dedication.
(replace-buffer-in-windows): Update the docstring, restore side
dedication.
(quit-restore-window): Rearrange the logic so hard dedicated windows
are eventually deleted first, restore the side dedication, in the
final case try to 'switch-to-prev-buffer' before deleting a window
fix (Bug#48367).

I read it again and think you were right,
when  (window--delete window 'dedicated (eq bury-or-kill 'kill))
is part of the conditional, it indeed already fail if the window 
is not deletable ;

I will correct that in the next revision.

Subject: [PATCH] Improve handling of side dedicated flag

Following the discussion on (Bug#48493), restore the dedicated side
flag of windows when a buffer change in the window, update the
documentation.

* doc/lispref/windows.texi (Buffers and Windows): Mention the
exception of side windows and add a reference.
(Buffer Display Action Alists): Say explicitly that
'display-buffer-in-side-window' is dedicating to side by default.
(Dedicated Windows): Add case (4) and explain its meaning, add
a reference.
(Displaying Buffers in Side Windows): Move the paragraph about
'switch-to-(prev|next)-buffer' into a new item to emphasize the
special meaning of dedication for side windows.

* lisp/window.el (set-window-buffer-start-and-point): Restore
side dedication.
(switch-to-prev-buffer): Correct the return value that should be
nil instead of the same buffer in case of no changement.
(switch-to-next-buffer): Correct the return value that should be
nil instead of the same buffer in case of no changement.
(delete-windows-on): Restore side dedication.
(replace-buffer-in-windows): Update the docstring, restore side
dedication.
(quit-restore-window): Rearrange the logic so hard dedicated windows
are eventually deleted first, restore the side dedication, in the
final case try to 'switch-to-prev-buffer' before deleting a window
fix (Bug#48367).
