Can you show the values of dead_child's members?

It looks like Emacs was trying to reap a wrong process.  dead_child
says its PID is 3744, but record_child_status_change, up above it in
the call stack, thinks its PID was 5412:

> #4  0x0101f2c6 in record_child_status_change (pid=-1, w=256) at process.c:6344
>         deleted_pid = 5412
>         all_pids_are_fixnums = false
>         xpid = 21648
>         record_at_most_one_child = true
>         tail = 91890086

If that GDB session is still active, can you show the entire list in
deleted_pid_list?  The 'pp' command should be able to display it in a
human-readable format.

Did this problem happen again since the original report?  If it does
happen from time to time, I might ask you to run Emacs under GDB with
a couple of breakpoints in strategic places, because usually when
dead_child's handle is NULL, it is too late: the evidence of the crime
is already forgotten.

Thanks.

Sure. It happens frequently but not always.

OK.  There;s only 1 place where the handle of the process is set to
NULL.  Here:

  static void
  reap_subprocess (child_process *cp)
  {
    if (cp->procinfo.hProcess)
      {
	/* Reap the process */
  #ifdef FULL_DEBUG
	/* Process should have already died before we are called.  */
	if (WaitForSingleObject (cp->procinfo.hProcess, 0) != WAIT_OBJECT_0)
	  DebPrint (("reap_subprocess: child fpr fd %d has not died yet!", cp->fd));
  #endif
	CloseHandle (cp->procinfo.hProcess);   <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
	cp->procinfo.hProcess = NULL;

(One other place is when the process is launched, but I don't think
this is our case.)

So please put a breakpoint on this line, like this:

  (gdb) break w32proc.c:1096
  (gdb) commands
  > bt 6
  > p cp->pid
  > continue
  > end

In addition, please put a breakpoint here:

  static bool
  process_status_retrieved (pid_t desired, pid_t have, int *status)
  {
    if (have < 0)
      {
	/* Invoke waitpid only with a known process ID; do not invoke
	   waitpid with a nonpositive argument.  Otherwise, Emacs might
	   reap an unwanted process by mistake.  For example, invoking
	   waitpid (-1, ...) can mess up glib by reaping glib's subprocesses,
	   so that another thread running glib won't find them.  */
	do
	  have = waitpid (desired, status, WNOHANG | WUNTRACED);
	while (have < 0 && errno == EINTR);
      }

    return have == desired;  <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
  }

Like this:

  (gdb) process.c:6278 if have != desired
  (gdb) commands
  > p have
  > p desired
  > p status
  > continue
  > end

Then run Emacs as you normally would, and tell if these breakpoints
ever break, and if so, what do you see there.  The breakpoint commands
arrange for GDB to continue Emacs after it reports the values as
specified in the breakpoint commands.

Thanks.

Interesting.  I need to think...

Thanks, that figures.  Basically, the modified code that handles
demise of child processes is incompatible with the emulated 'wait'
function, because it does not support waiting for a process by its
PID.  I think we will have to rewrite 'sys_wait' to emulate 'waitpid',
although I'll try first to come up with a simpler band-aid.

Paul, are there other supported platforms that use 'wait' here?  If
there are, they are in danger of the same problem, because the new
record_child_status_change assumes 'waitpid' functionality with the
first argument non-negative.

Just so my understanding of the exact scenario is better, could you
please add "bt 10" to the commands of breakpoint 4, the one set in
process_status_retrieved, and again post the full transcript of the
GDB session leading to the crash?

Thanks.

I'd still like to have the details as requested here (with the current
trunk code):

However in the meantime, I came up with the changes below, which seem
to work in my limited testing, and should fix the fundamental problem
that caused your crashes.  Could you please try these changes for a
while, and see if they give good results?  (You will have to re-run
configure.bat before compiling.)  If they do, I will then commit this
to the trunk.  TIA.

No, waitpid is required by POSIX.1-1988 and has
been present on all GNUish and POSIXish platform
versions released since ~1990.  Nowadays we can
safely assume that waitpid is on every supported
platform other than bare Microsoft platforms
such as MSVC and mingw.

Not for long.

Thanks, this means I can safely remove all the stuff for the case that
WNOHANG is not defined, when waitpid is available for Windows.

Start emacs, `M-x gnus', `RET' to select the first group, and then `SPC'
and `n' to page through messages.  Read about 20 before the crash.

OK, thanks.  I think everything is clear now: this crash happens with
50% probability whenever there's more than one async subprocesses
monitored at the same time.

I think the changes I posted should fix that.  If not, let me know
what happens, and I will take it from there.

Any news?  Should I commit the changes?

I don't see anything about it that would break things,
though I'm looking only at the non-Windows part.

The following change to wait_for_termination_1
would be simpler, assuming the Windows waitpid emulation
is good enough now.

Thanks, I will install in a short while.

Yes, I plan to do that, given the discussion about the "interruptible"
wait here.  The Windows emulation actually calls QUIT internally,
instead of returning with EINTR, but I don't think that matters in
this case.

Done as trunk revision 110922.  I'm closing the bug report.

Done as well.  I also removed the remaining fragments that catered to
systems without WNOHANG, as there are no such system anymore.
