bug#58314: 29.0.50; C-h k with native compilation not conclusive

bug#58314: 29.0.50; C-h k with native compilation not conclusive

[Jean Louis]

I remember with byte compiling I was never lead to go into byte compiled
file when I was inspecting commands with C-h k

With native compilation, I do: C-h k and I get this:

v n runs the command cf-people-view-notes (found in
rcd-db-people-mode-map), which is an interactive native-compiled Lisp
function in
‘../eln-cache/29.0.50-44cd31c8/rcd-cf-a9476332-a313d4ff.eln’.

It is bound to v n.

(cf-people-view-notes &optional ID)

View notes for people ID.

However, what I really expect is that instead of byte compiled file,
that I am shown the source file, and that I become able to click on the
link to come to the function.

Instead if I click on the link:

‘../eln-cache/29.0.50-44cd31c8/rcd-cf-a9476332-a313d4ff.eln’.

I can just see error:

I cannot reproduce this.  I don't have rcd-cf.el here, of course, but
I tested with "C-h k n" in Help mode, and I see the expected:

  n runs the command help-goto-next-page (found in help-mode-map), which
  is an interactive native-compiled Lisp function in ‘help-mode.el’.

So this is somehow related to your own files.  Maybe it's because how
we store the doc strings or something?  Stefan, any ideas?

1. emacs -Q

2. {C-x C-f my-file.el RET}

3. write in my-file.el:

  (defun my-function ()
  (message "Hello"))

4. {M-x emacs-lisp-native-compile-and-load RET}

5. {C-h f my-function RET}

6. Then I see:

my-function is a native-compiled Lisp function in
‘~/.emacs.d/eln-cache/29.0.50-44cd31c8/my-file-fb862712-14785989.eln’.

(my-function)

Not documented.

But I am expecting to see link to my-file.el and not to compiled file.

And if I click on the link:

‘~/.emacs.d/eln-cache/29.0.50-44cd31c8/my-file-fb862712-14785989.eln’.

then I get:

bug#58314: 29.0.50; C-h k with native compilation not conclusive

[Jean Louis]

I think that xref get broken related to this.

How to reproduce:

1. emacs -Q

2. open my-file.el

3. Write:

(defun my-function ()
  (my-other-function)
  (message "Hello"))

(defun my-other-function ()
  (message "I am other function"))

4. M-x emacs-lisp-native-compile-and-load

5. Put cursor or (my-other-function)

6. M-. for xref-find-definition

6. Error:

Thanks for the recipe -- I can reproduce this issue, too.

We could fix this in help-fns, but I wonder whether there's something
that should be fixed on the nativecomp side -- in this case, it appears
to not set up...  something...  that allows you to find my-file.el.
I.e., `symbol-file' isn't able to find my-file.el, and it probably
should be?

I've added Andrea to the CCs; perhaps he has a comment.

It is also interesting that help-fns does find the .el file for the
files that are part of Emacs.  So something works differently when the
compiled file is not part of the Emacs build.

I think this a bug in `emacs-lisp-native-compile-and-load'.  I'll come
up with a fix.

Hi all,

bcc222251e1 now into emacs-29 fixes this bug.  I'm closing this report,
happy to repoen if necessary.

Thanks
