It's weird that we're failing there. If we're looking at a buffer with 
dumped contents, we set b->text->beg to NULL, then use the normal 
buffer-allocation procedure (whichever we're compiled to use) to 
allocate memory for the contents. How can the resulting address ever be 
equal to what we started with? Neither mmap_realloc nor r_re_alloc nor 
xrealloc should ever reuse the address.

Oh, I think I know what's going on. We must be reallocating from the 
discardable region, which we unmapped on startup, but pdumper_object_p 
still thinks that this memory (which the allocator can legitimately use 
for some other purpose) is part of the dump (since pdumper_object_p uses 
a simple range check) and malfunctions.  I'll add a patch to keep this 
address space reserved.

I just added the actually-discard-the-discardable region code, so I'm 
not surprised it broke. On my machine, we happen to never reuse that 
address space.

You are talking about what enlarge_buffer_text does?  IOW, this:

    if (pdumper_object_p (old_beg))
      b->text->beg = NULL;
    else
      old_beg = NULL;

  #if defined USE_MMAP_FOR_BUFFERS
    p = mmap_realloc ((void **) &b->text->beg, new_nbytes);
  #elif defined REL_ALLOC
    p = r_re_alloc ((void **) &b->text->beg, new_nbytes);
  #else
    p = xrealloc (b->text->beg, new_nbytes);
  #endif

I will try to look around this when I have time, and see what I find.

Lots of errors on macOS 10.13 (clang). Looks like they’re mostly the
same thing repeated.

Thanks, the problem is indeed fixed, and with that I was able to
successfully complete the bootstrap.

I also tested an optimized build, and a parallel "make -j8" build, and
they all worked as expected.

The times to load the .pdmp file are around 20 msec for an unoptimized
build and 7 msec for an optimized build, which I think is very
impressive.

For the record, this is a 32-bit MinGW build configured with
"--with-large-int --with-modules --enable-checking", on a 3-year old
Core i7 box running Windows 7.

I'm not sure if this was meant for me as well. In any case, I just
pulled and rebuilt, and everything seems to be working well as of
commit 9484bb3ab8e39add474400e5982802b61c56eb3a (I'm using it to write
this message).

I suspect some of these are because of clang.

Thanks, I’ve got it to build and it seems to work fine.

Here are the changes I had to make:

Presumably RESTORING_FROM_DUMP is a left‐over from previous code? I
couldn’t see at a glance what to replace it with.

Oddly whenever I had a problem with macfont.m I had to do ‘make clean’
before make would work again. I’m not sure what was going on or if
it’s specific to this branch.

Why did you have to remove the const?

Another minor thing (that breaks the build with -Werror) is that the
functions set_{marker,vectorlike}_marked are unused. Same with
syms_of_nsfns_1. I also had to change the eassert(("...", 0)) to
eassert("..." && 0) to stop the compiler from complaining about an unused
expression.

Thanks. I’m still seeing this:

      'syms_of_macfont_for_pdumper'
  pdumper_do_now_and_after_load (syms_of_macfont_for_pdumper);

I moved syms_of_macfont_for_pdumper to before syms_of_macfont to fix
it.

I think we’ll also have to copy the pdmp file into Emacs.app on

now.

A simpler approach would be to just concatenate the dump to temacs, then 
add a special header with a signature and a dump length. On startup, 
Emacs could open itself, seek to the end of the file, look for the 
signature, and if it's present, back up to the start of the dump and 
proceed exactly as pdumper does now. This way, there's no overwriting 
stuff in the middle of the file and we don't waste disk space on a big 
data section we'll only partially use.

Thank you.  I could build it and it seems working as expected.  I'm
writing this message using pdumper emacs.

We could try, but:
- it adds complexity and maybe system-dependent hacks.
- it closes the opportunity to have several dump files for a single
  executable (I was thinking we could try and let end-users build their
  own dump file).

Not if we just tack onto the end.

Not necessarily. Suppose we go with the append-to-the-executable option. 
Then, to "re-dump" emacs, we'd open the current executable, copy it to a 
temporary file, back up to the start of the dump, ftruncate. Now we've 
recovered temacs and we can go through normal loadup and dump.

Maybe we can even automatically detect changes to any file in 
load-history and perform this procedure automatically on startup.

You know, we could just append a whole zip archive to the executable and 
load elisp files from this zip archive. (The dump file would be just 
another file in the archive.) This way, we'd be able to make a 
self-contained "emacs" binary that wouldn't need special installation. 
(arc-mode would keep find-library working.) We could even mmap files 
from the zip archive as long as the files are suitably aligned and 
STOREd instead of compressed; Android uses this trick to map stuff 
sitting inside APK files.

Wouldn't that make the dumper stuff less portable, in the sense that
it would need to be compatible with low-level details of executable
file formats on various systems?

At least on non-ELF systems, AFAIK the flexibility of putting
arbitrary sections into an executable is lower than desired.  For
example, before Emacs 25 the MS-Windows build would create a special
section for the initialized Emacs data, which had the annoying effect
of running afoul of 'strip', because Binutils don't know about this
section, and therefore stripping would produce a dysfunctional
executable.  It also prevented re-dumping Emacs, something we had in
the past and I'd like us to have again in the future.

Wouldn't copying the dump into the executable hit the same problems,
at least in principle?

> This way, we could get rid of the current complicated dump-file location logic early in Emacs init.

Can you elaborate why is that logic so complicated?

But it will have to be a special section, right?  Because otherwise we
again will prevent Binutils from doing useful stuff with such an
executable, right?

I don't understand the desire to put the dump within the eamcs
executable, as I thought the whole point of this exercise was to avoid
dodgy manipulation of executable file formats.

Anything that fiddles with the executable prevents signing the
executable, which in many environments is desireable.

It fails to build for 64bit Windows with Mingw64 on msys2:

This appears to be because sys_read() and _read() take an unsigned int
for count rather than size_t. Changing the code to:

read (fd, (char*) buf + bytes_read, (int)(bytes_to_read - bytes_read));

That builds and appears to run, but it would be nicer to get sys_read
etc. to use the proper types.

Yes.  Angelo already reported this a few days ago.

> Changing the code to:

This cannot be the right solution, because you will lose bits in the
cast, when bytes_to_read is greater than INT_MAX.

When Angelo reported this, I said I didn't understand how a similar
code in sysdep.c:emacs_intr_read does compile without a problem,
although it seems to feed a ptrdiff_t value (which should be 64-bit
wide in the 64-bit Windows build, just like size_t, except for the
signedness), similarly to the above.  Can you spot why that works?
Maybe look at the preprocessed source?  Maybe then we will know how to
fix that properly (or maybe we will discover one more subtle bug ;-).

In general, breaking the read into chunks of INT_MAX should work as
well, but I'd like to know first what's going on in emacs_intr_read,
because perhaps there's a more elegant solution we have available.

Just concatenating bytes to the end of an executable doesn't break that 
executable, at least not on any platform I know about. binutils keeps 
working. No special section required. Strip does remove the extra data 
though, unfortunately, and this procedure does break any cryptographic 
signatures (although we're not using any right now).

No: I'm thinking about only options that work independently of 
particular executable formats.

That does sound annoying. The original proposal I had in mind was to 
make a normal data array:

uint8_t dump[15*1024*1024] = { embedded_dump_signature };

And then refer to this array on code. No part of the toolchain is 
allowed to remove this array. The "dump insertion" procedure we're 
considering would just amount to changing the contents of this array in 
an already-linked executable using dumb find-and-replace anchored on 
embedded_dump_signature.

I'd like to have it too. The data-section-array approach above wouldn't 
permit redumping unless the new dump fit into the old array. The 
concatenation approach would allow arbitrary redumping. And of course 
keeping the dump as a separate file would too.

Two reasons:

1) The code to generate the dump file is complicated, especially because 
we want to support windows, and
2) with a separate dump file, it's easier to accidentally break the 
correspondence between the dump and the emacs binary itself. If we 
somehow stapled the dump to the binary, it'd be a lot harder to break 
this way.

I like the idea of being able to mv emacs emacs.old, make emacs, and 
then have emacs.old and emacs still both run and work normally. I don't 
think the numbered build mechanism you fixed completely solves the 
problem, since it only works in one specific context.

It's just a matter of packaging. As I mentioned in the other message I 
sent, keeping the dump separate from the executable breaks some 
perfectly-natural things you might want to do with the Emacs executable, 
like copying and renaming it. If possible, I'd like to keep these things 
working. If we can't, that's a shame, but it's not the end of the world.

We do need to avoid platform-specific executable file manipulation and 
weird runtime hacks. There are three options on the table:

1) Keeping the dump as a separate file,
2) Appending the dump to the end of the executable, and
3) Overwriting a data-section array with the dump contents.

All of these options avoid dodgy platform-specific executable 
modifications of the sort you see in, say, unexw32.c, and they're all 
compatible with emacs as a position-independent executable.

Ideally, we'd be able to re-sign after modification.

I'm guessing similar problems will happen with objcopy and objdump.

I can understand how rewriting the array could work (but we'd need to
know its size in advance, otherwise we'd waste memory, like Emacs on
w32 does today with its dumped_data array, especially since the size
during bootstrap needs to be so much larger than with byte-compiled
Lisp files).  But I'm not sure I understand how references to that
array in the code would work.  Do you mean there would be a need to
"fix up" address references in the code as part of "dump insertion"?
If so, that's my original suggestion from 2 years ago, which was voted
down due to complexities.

I imagined the fingerprint we compute is already used (or can be used)
to reject dump files from a different build?  If so, this could
provide at least some protection form calamities.

If I remember correctly, XEmacs chose option (1), but that was a long
time ago. If we implement that, nothing prevents us from adding option
(2) later. Later builds that implement (2) would then simply not
provide the dump file separately, and once it's shown to work reliably
the code for (1) could be removed (or (1) and (2) could be swapped).

Option 3 seems less flexible, plus as someone mentioned it would be
nice to able to redump your own emacs, which could run into a
limitation of the size of the data section.

I do indeed think that we should make the separate file method stable
and collect some experience with it, before consider more advanced
and/or clever approaches.

IIUC these options actually aren't mutually exclusive.
We can easily provide a single `(t)emacs` executable which at startup
will:
- look for a valid dump in the big static `dump` array.
- if not found look for a valid dump in a particular ELF section.
- if not found, look for a valid dump at the end of the `emacs` binary.
- if not found, look for a dump as a separate file at some standard
  location (starting with ~/.emacs.d/<magicid>.dump, say).
- as support a "--preload <foo>.dump" command-line option.

Agreed - it was a quick and dirty hack to get the build to complete.

Given the mismatch between sys_read/_read and read, doesn't the smae
problem exist elsewhere in emacs also ?

I agree. We already ship a lot of files that are expected at certain
locations, like the Emacs Lisp files or the files in `data-directory', why
should the pdump file be different?

That other place is emacs_intr_read.

However it will be necessary to support this in the near future.

Thanks for your work on the portable dumper though - this already looks
solid enough that the old dump code does not have long to live...

The files you've mentioned aren't as intimately tied to the Emacs binary 
as the pdmp file is. You can load these elc and data files into any old 
Emacs, but the dump has to be an _exact_ match.

The difference is at the top of pdumper.c:

#ifdef __GNUC__
# pragma GCC diagnostic error "-Wconversion"
# pragma GCC diagnostic error "-Wshadow"

Everything else appears to be built without that warning as error. If I
add similar pragmas to sysdep.c then it also emits a dozen or so
conversion warnings as errors.

Ah, okay.  So I guess we've just uncovered a subtle bug, which affects
emacs_intr_read as well, and perhaps other places.  Thanks.

My experience is just the opposite: i.e., that -Wconversion causes more 
trouble than it cures. The pdumper change to INTEGER_TO_CONS is an 
example of trouble. The only reason for that change is to work around a 
compiler bug in GCC that is caused by -Wconversion, a bug that leads to 
a false alarm. I suggest at least the attached patch, which limits the 
damage to pdumper.c instead of letting it spread to other Emacs modules. 
But better yet, I suggest dropping the idea of using -Wconversion even 
on pdumper.c, as it's counterproductive and in high-quality code almost 
inevitably leads to further obfuscation like ALLOW_IMPLICIT_CONVERSION 
and DISALLOW_IMPLICIT_CONVERSION.

PS. Double-parens like that shouldn't be needed in macro bodies, as each 
macro must parenthesize its argument properly anyway.

-Wconversion helped me find real bugs and otherwise mysterious bugs in 
pdumper. It also, apparently, found a longstanding subtle bug in a 
completely different part of Emacs. Outside of certain specialized 
casting facilities, -Wconversion ought to warn only on things that are 
actually problems. Have a counter-example?

The ALLOW_IMPLICIT_CONVERSION and DISALLOW_IMPLICIT_CONVERSION macros 
are there in pdumper to account for the rest of Emacs not being 
conversion-clean; if everything worked with -Wconversion, we wouldn't 
need the bracketing.

DEFINE_TOLISP_FUNC is exactly the sort of specialized casting facility 
where -Wconversion is more likely to mess up than usual, which is why I 
suggested disabling -Wconversion there in pdumper.c. -Wconversion is not 
as useful elsewhere, which is why I suggested leaving INTEGER_TO_CONS alone.

Sure, revert the pdumper change to INTEGER_TO_CONS but leave pdumper.c 
alone, by applying the attached patch to pdumper. The compile on a 
platform where EMACS_INT is 32 bits, using GCC 7.3.1 20180130 (Red Hat 
7.3.1-2). The resulting diagnostic is a false alarm:

pdumper.c: In function ‘intmax_t_to_lisp’:
pdumper.c:694:29: error: conversion to ‘EMACS_INT {aka int}’ from 
‘intmax_t {aka long long int}’ may alter its value [-Werror=conversion]
      return INTEGER_TO_CONS (value);  \
                              ^
lisp.h:3572:19: note: in definition of macro ‘INTEGER_TO_CONS’
     ? make_number (i)          \
                    ^
pdumper.c:698:1: note: in expansion of macro ‘DEFINE_TOLISP_FUNC’
  DEFINE_TOLISP_FUNC (intmax_t_to_lisp, intmax_t);
  ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This false alarm is due to a GCC bug. GCC is supposed to take 
expressions like this one (adapted from INTEGER_TO_CONS):

   (MOST_NEGATIVE_FIXNUM <= i && i <= MOST_POSITIVE_FIXNUM
    ? make_number (i)
    : something_else (i))

and evaluate make_number (i) in the context of i being in range for 
fixnums (which means i is in range for EMACS_INT). In this particular 
case, GCC has a bug where it forgets i's range, and thus the false alarm.

I'd file a bug report with the GCC folks, but in the past my experience 
is that they don't take -Wconversion bug reports all that seriously. In 
practice, -Wconversion isn't good enough for high-quality code like what 
Emacs should be.


> -Wconversion helped me find real bugs and otherwise mysterious bugs in 
> pdumper.
Yes, -Wconversion can find bugs, particularly the first time one writes 
a program when the program has lots of bugs that need finding. But its 
false-alarm rate is too high to be useful in high-quality code. Although 
it's OK to use -Wconversion temporarily in new or otherwise-buggy areas, 
we shouldn't encourage its use in the part of Emacs that is intended to 
be stable and high-quality.

I mean code that is written with reasonable care to check for ranges, 
much as Emacs normally does. For example, INTEGER_TO_CONS checks for 
ranges before converting its argument to EMACS_INT. When such code runs 
afoul of -Wconversion, my experience is that the false alarm rate is so 
high that -Wconversion causes more trouble than it's worth. I suspect 
that pdumper.c also had a bunch of false alarms, which is why it 
contains all that gorp with ALLOW_IMPLICIT_CONVERSION and 
DISALLOW_IMPLICIT_CONVERSION. I'll try to pry free some time to look in 
more detail at pdumper.c and see whether there's a way to fix it without 
worrying so much about -Wconversion.

Which is why I advocate not using -Wconversion: as a rule, -Wconversion 
takes good code and makes it worse. Of course there are always 
exceptions, and perhaps pdumper.c is one of those exceptions.

OK, I've looked at the code, both in sysdep.c and in pdumper.c.  My
conclusion is that there's no real problem in sysdep.c, due to these
comments:

  /* Maximum number of bytes to read or write in a single system call.
     This works around a serious bug in Linux kernels before 2.6.16; see
     <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?format=multiple&id=612839>.
     It's likely to work around similar bugs in other operating systems, so do it
     on all platforms.  Round INT_MAX down to a page size, with the conservative
     assumption that page sizes are at most 2**18 bytes (any kernel with a
     page size larger than that shouldn't have the bug).  */
  #ifndef MAX_RW_COUNT
  #define MAX_RW_COUNT (INT_MAX >> 18 << 18)
  #endif

  /* Read from FD to a buffer BUF with size NBYTE.
     If interrupted, process any quits and pending signals immediately
     if INTERRUPTIBLE, and then retry the read unless quitting.
     Return the number of bytes read, which might be less than NBYTE.
     On error, set errno to a value other than EINTR, and return -1.  */
  static ptrdiff_t
  emacs_intr_read (int fd, void *buf, ptrdiff_t nbyte, bool interruptible)
  {
    ssize_t result;

    /* There is no need to check against MAX_RW_COUNT, since no caller ever
       passes a size that large to emacs_read.  */
    do
      {
	if (interruptible)
	  maybe_quit ();
	result = read (fd, buf, nbyte);
      }
    while (result < 0 && errno == EINTR);

Since MAX_RW_COUNT is less than INT_MAX, we have no real problem here
for MS-Windows, as 'nbyte' will never overflow an unsigned int.  We
could add an eassert there, for Windows only, though, to make this
assumption explicit.

As for pdumper, we could do one of 2 things:

 . make a reasonable assumption that no .pdmp file will ever be larger
   than 2GB, change the assertion there which checks against SSIZE_MAX
   to check against UINT_MAX instead, and work internally with
   unsigned int instead of size_t counts; or

 . write a separate Windows-specific version of dump_read_all, which
   in the 64-bit build would limit to UINT_MAX the number of bytes we
   read on each iteration through the loop.

Daniel, which of these 2 alternatives do you prefer?  Or does anyone
have a better proposal?  (I already considered rewriting the code in
w32.c:sys_read so that it accepts a size_t last argument, and decided
it was unjustified for this single caller, as all the other direct
calls to 'read' in Emacs either use fixed small byte counts, or are
not compiled in the Windows build.)

Thanks.

This way, we'd be able to make a self-contained "emacs" binary that wouldn't need special installation. (arc-mode would keep find-library working.) We could even mmap files from the zip archive as long as the files are suitably aligned and STOREd instead of compressed; Android uses this trick to map stuff sitting inside APK files.

Embedding the Lisp support code (or other things) via C character arrays during the build process would also work, and would be cleaner, though it specifically fails to handle your dump-file issue, unless you do go the route of patching up an embedded array later. I do think that’s probably cleaner than appending arbitrary data to an executable.

(On a tangent to that, I’ve got some experimental patches around for embedding the C doc strings in the executable, halfway to eliminating the need for the separate DOC file.)

Tying the dump to the executable image required to make it work does seem like a win. I’m not sure I’d call it entirely “self-contained” unless you could somehow fold in the info files, support executables like movemail and hexl, etc., sort of like the “app” bundle on macOS does (really a directory but the GUI treats it as one object for moving around).

The patch for this in commit b7da1a5af8f1 is not quite right:

+      /* Some platforms accept only int-sized values to read.  */
+      unsigned chunk_to_read = UINT_MAX;
+      if (bytes_to_read - bytes_read < chunk_to_read)
+        chunk_to_read = (unsigned)(bytes_to_read - bytes_read);

Windows platforms use sys_read from w32.c:
    int sys_read(int fd, char *buffer, unsigned int count);

The limit for a chunk should be INT_MAX (not UINT_MAX) so that it
is representable in the (signed) return value.

Is the return value int too? Or is it a ssize_t that can hold UINT_MAX? 
If the former, agreed.

We should be able to change sys_read to return ssize_t instead.  Can
you try that?

Thanks for testing. I don't have a PowerPC handy. I guess I can go find 
an emulator, but in the meantime: can you think of anything specific to 
PowerPC that might break the code? Word size? pdumper works for me in 
both 32- and 64-bit forms on x86. Endian? AIUI, PowerPC has selectable 
endianness. Are you big- or little-endian? Besides, pdumper *should* be 
endian-neutral. And if we were looking at an endianness mismatch, I'd 
expect a much bigger mismatch than 544 vs. 536. What stack do you have 
there? Does your system use natural alignment?

I looked at the w32 code --- we give the size to _read directly in the 
non-pipe, non-socket, non-serial case, and MSDN doesn't say what happens 
when size > INT_MAX, so in the interest of being rather safe than sorry, 
I just changed the pdumper code to use INT_MAX. It shouldn't matter in 
practice.

That's pure luck.  There is nothing that forces the size of struct
buffer to be EMACS_INT aligned.

Then you need to fix that.

Comments mentioning MAX_RW_COUNT show that somebody checked an invariant
when writing the comment, but they do not guarantee that the invariant
will continue to be maintained in future versions of emacs. A check that
can be enforced by the compiler is preferable.

This seems perfectly reasonable, and is the current implementation,
albeit checking for INT_MAX.

This offers more opportunity for divergent implementations, so the other
option is preferable.

Is there a gnulib replacement for read() that works for emacs, so that
we could use the proper prototype even on Windows ? If so we could get
rid of sys_read etc.

I will, but I don't understand why you've been so unhelpful.

I added an assertion there (on master) that should make the code more
future-proof.

No, the current code actually breaks the reads into chunks no larger
than INT_MAX.  So it doesn't assume a .pdmp file cannot be at most
2GB.

I presumed that we will not want to punish other platforms by making
them read piecemeal.  But if that's not an issue, I agree that the
second alternative is less elegant.

No, because sys_read does much more than just fix the Windows _read.

I spoke too soon. Commit fca8372020248318f1d0007378607a912b19026e is causing

./temacs --batch  --load loadup pbootstrap

to segfault. As far as I can tell, all that commit does is replace
eassert with eassume, but reverting it causes the crash to go away.

In my experience, eassume (and 'assume') shouldn't be used for 
complicated expressions, as GCC is too-easily confused by them. eassume 
should be used only for expressions where the assumption really does 
help the compiler, either by generating significantly-better code or by 
pacifying a false alarm.

No, --enable-checking=all gets me a different segfault:

I'd hoped things had gotten better, and some local testing seemed to 
suggest it was safe to use these days. Apparently it's not, which is a 
shame. It'd be nice, but not urgent, to track down which specific 
assumptions caused what I think must be miscompilations so we could 
report them upstream.

Can you repro with an -O0 build?

The guilty change is:

--- a/src/pdumper.c
+++ b/src/pdumper.c
@@ -607,7 +607,7 @@ dump_set_have_current_referrer (struct dump_context *ctx, bool have)

If I revert just that hunk, the build succeeds.

Wow: thanks for tracking that down.

What on earth? I mean, we're instructing the compiler to assume 
something that's both trivial and true. What GCC version is this? If 
it's recent, I think it's probably worth reporting.

$ gcc --version
gcc-5.real (Ubuntu 5.4.0-6ubuntu1~16.04.6) 5.4.0 20160609

I have a gcc-8-ish somewhere that I can rev up to see if it has the
same problem, but probably not soon.

I wonder whether the --enable-checking=all code is just busted somehow. 
Emacs doesn't finish dumping itself in master either: loadup seems to 
spin after trying to load files.el, even with -O3, and on the pdumper 
branch, we crash in temacs during early loadup well before we do 
anything with pdumper. I'll keep looking when I can.

That gcc-8 turned out to be easy to get ready, and it shows the same
problem (and solution). So now I have an alpha branch of emacs being
allegedly miscompiled by a non-released tip-of-tree version of gcc, in
a feature that messes around with the guts of Emacs' object
representations.

I find it hard to assign blame here. Should I start using unreleased
binutils next? :-)

That "somebody" was me. That is, I looked at all the callers of these 
functions and checked that none of them go above MAX_RW_COUNT. That 
being said, it doesn't hurt to put in an eassert to check this as well 
(thanks, Eli). It would be a pain to check all the callers at 
compile-time, alas.

There is. However, the Gnulib 'read' does some stuff that the Emacs 
'read' doesn't (and vice versa). Nobody has taken the time to try to 
unify them, and it's possible that unifying them would not be a good 
idea overall.

While I've got little to add the discussion of the innards, this
occurred to me also. In fact, I've been trying it -- I figured that
a "redump Emacs after load .emacs" would be a fairly attractive option,
especially if it was automated.

Anyway, at the moment, I can't get it to work. Calling this:

(dump-emacs-portable "~/scratch/test.pdmp")

after loading my .emacs works (early versions crashed, so something's
been fixed there). However, trying to use this:

./src/emacs -q --dump-file ~/scratch/test.pdmp 
emacs: could not load dump file "/home/phillord/scratch/test.pdmp": not a dump file

I'm able to re-dump now. Can you try it again?

Dumping from ./src/emacs -q

gives me this in *Messages* after the dump (although the call to
dump-emacs-portable returns without error).

eval: unsupported object type in dump: SAVE_POINTER

and this on trying to reload with

./src/emacs -q --dump-file ~/scratch/test.pdmp

Gives:

dump file is result of failed dump attempt

on the command line. On an emacs started with

./src/emacs

and running the various stuff in my .emacs, I get this:

eval: unsupported object type in dump: window configuration

Likewise, cannot restart with --dump-file. This is running on Ubuntu
16.04.3, 64 bit.

You can pass t to dump-emacs-portable to see where the unsupported values come from.  For me SAVE_POINTERs came from loading dbus, and window configurations from loading winner-mode.

I love when people use features that aren't even properly documented 
yet. :-)

I'm imagining using 'with-wrapper-hook' (or, since it's deprecated, 
'add-function') to give modes a chance to tweak the global lisp 
environment that pdumper sees, avoiding some of these problems. Another 
option, which isn't necessarily mutually exclusive, is to provide a list 
of symbols to dump as nil.

For now, you're going to get the most reliable results dumping a -batch 
Emacs.

For the benefit of readers of this list who have been asked to test the
pdumper branch and report their findings, can you please describe what is
expected to work correctly, and which areas still need additional work.

Please add the "--dump-file" command line argument to the command line
help in usage_message[] in emacs.c.

I assumed that this was the case. Do you want bug reports about dumping
a non-batch? I think the use case of speeding up start up is a good one
to address, but I am aware that it's an add-on that Emacs doesn't
support at the moment. Getting the dumper stable for normal development
use is the main thing.

Phil

They are 4 weeks that pdumper branch is not synchronized, should we continue to test it? 

During this time, builds of that branch have been tested on Windows, GNU/Linux and macOS without showing any specific issue...

I'm not sure what's left to test. It works. What's stopping a merge?

I just test-merged it to master, with only two issues:

1. a merge conflict in src/nsfont.m as a result of 7ff62ed221c
2. The Lisp_Buffer_Local_Value hash has changed, although itʼs not
clear to me why, since I only see comment changes in its definition. I
updated dmpstruct.h, and the build works fine (it runs gnus, as proven
by this message).

I think what is left is minor.  Some things that come to mind:

  . Some minimal documentation (manual, NEWS).

  . I don't think versioned installs are supported, as the code will
    always try to load emacs.pdmp, AFAIR, even when the binary is
    called emacs-XX.YY.ZZ.

  . There's also the issue of the "legacy" dumping.  I'm guessing we
    will want to leave that in the sources for the time being?  If so,
    did anyone try to build the branch using that, and did it work as
    expected?

  . One other thing to try is to build on one system, then unpack the
    binary distro on another binary-compatible system, perhaps with a
    different directory tree structure, and see if everything works.

And in configure. Itʼs not clear to me what the various combinations
of --with-dumping and --with-pdumper are supposed to see (see below).

./configure --with-dumping=unexec --with-pdumper=no && src/emacs -Q
# uses unexec, doesnʼt support pdump. OK

./configure --with-dumping=unexec && src/emacs -Q
# uses unexec, doesnʼt support pdump. OK

./configure --with-dumping=unexec --with-pdumper=yes && src/emacs -Q
# uses unexec, supports pdump. Runs OK. What does 'supports pdump'
mean in this context? That we'll try to load a dump file even though
we've been built with unexec?

In any case, the old unexec code looks like it still works on my
system.

I build Emacs also for Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) but I do the build on GNU/Linux Mint (*) because it is a bit faster. The build creates a tar ball which I then install on WSL (both in Win 10 Pro 64 and in Win 10 Home 64). This build does not use X because WSL doesn't too..

Generally, the build I do on Win 10 64 (W64 native, i.e. MSYS2/MinGW64) is also installed in Win 10 Home.

(*) Both Mint and WSL uses Ubuntu 16.04

I've just skimmed the diff, and I think the change is a significant
improvement, and will help with my GC experiments even though I'm
probably never going to be able to use the portable dumper. Some minor
comments:

it is not clear to me why some staticpro's are moved to happen after
the initialisation of the variable and some aren't. Maybe we should
change staticpro to have a
void staticpro(Lisp_Object *ptr, Lisp_Object initial_value);
signature and save some lines of code?

I don't understand this hunk in sysdep.c:

Are those two intentional?

I would vaguely prefer if "pdumper" names were limited to the actual
pdumper implementation, and "dumper" names were used instead in code
that does not depend on the implementation of the dumper. So we'd have
dumper_object_p(), defined to false if there's no dumper, and
pdumper_object_p otherwise. This would make things slightly easier for
(a) competing implementations (b) abusing the DUMPER_* machinery for
GC experiments (c) possibly extending pdumper to combine several
images rather than use a single one. It would also help avoid _impl
names.

I think it's worth mentioning that staticpro is now required for
variables that used to be safe: this change comes at the price of a
tiny performance hit because of the additional GC roots, but it's
worth it, IMHO.

Apart from that, there appear to be no disadvantages for people who
prefer to continue using unexec. Is that correct?

Why not? I eventually want to remove unexec entirely.

The code has always been a bit unclear about that; we don't GC that 
early, so it doesn't really matter- -- but if we did, we'd be saved by 
nil being all zero these days.

Sometimes the value from .data is perfectly good though, and at that 
point, the initial_value setting would be a waste.

Thanks; I'll clean that up. That's left over from the demand paging 
experiment.

I'd rather not do a big renaming at this point. Nothing stops someone 
doing cleanup work post-merge if sufficiently motivated.

That's correct.

No objections to removing unexec, as long as temacs remains an option
:-) I haven't thought about dumping/restoring SpiderMonkey state, but
as it's hairy enough to get things working with setjmp(), I'd rather
not worry about it now.

I do have a half-finished (working, but not thoroughly tested) unexec
for asm.js, too, which sped things up somewhat, but I don't see why
the portable dumper wouldn't work there, too.

Well, Qnil isn't all zero (or even constant) here, and I do GC
unpredictably, though hopefully never that early; I'm still safe if
the staticpro goes first: the all-zero value, representing 0.0, is
fine for GC.

... as are explicit Qnil initializations, in general. So

inline void staticpro(Lisp_Object *ptr, Lisp_Object initial_value)
{
  assume(*ptr == Qnil);
  real_staticpro(ptr);
  if (initial_value != Qnil)
    *ptr = initial_value;
}

would actually reduce code size. But, again, it'd be better to merge
first, then optimize such minor things.

I just tried to build on macOS for the first time in a while and I get
this in ‘make install’

    Unknown option ‘--temacs=pbootstrap’
    make[1]: *** [bootstrap-emacs.pdmp] Error 255
    make: *** [src] Error 2
    make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

I also think we still need to get the pdmp file copied into the
Emacs.app file structure.

Is pdumper enabled in your config.h?

Sorry, never mind. I rebuilt from scratch and it’s fine. Must have
been something left over from a previous build.

Okay, GCC doesn't appear to optimize that expression by default, but
I've attached a patch which does keep stripped binary size constant.

It reduces C code size a little, avoids the ambiguity of whether
staticpro or the initialization goes first, removes the Qnil == 0
assumption from a few places and generally seems like a slight
improvement to me. Totally independent from the pdumper patch, of
course. (And I'd prefer the pdumper patch to go in first.)
