* bug#47334: 27.1; Incompatibility between daemon, desktop and highlight-changes-mode

When restoring a desktop session where a buffer has
highlight-changes-mode enabled, if Emacs is starting in daemon mode, it
locks up before opening the socket. There is no error message.

If Emacs is not starting in daemon mode, or if the desktop session file
does not list highlight-changes-mode, everything is fine.

I have observed this problem both with Emacs 27.1 on macOS and with
Emacs 26.3 on Ubuntu 20.04. Below I give the server an explicit name for
convenience but this is optional to reproduce the bug.

Here is a precise recipe to reproduce. (Lines beginning with a letter
are shell commands; lines beginning with `|` are terminal output.)

mkdir -p /var/tmp/bugs/emacs-daemon-desktop-highlight-changes/.emacs.d
cd /var/tmp/bugs/emacs-daemon-desktop-highlight-changes
echo "(setq desktop-restore-frames nil)" >.emacs.d/init.el
echo "(desktop-save-mode)" >>.emacs.d/init.el
HOME=$PWD emacs --no-site-file -nw .emacs.d/init.el
# C-x C-c y ; Exit, saving the session
cp .emacs.d/.emacs.desktop desktop.ok.el
HOME=$PWD emacs --no-site-file --daemon=foo
| Wrote
/var/tmp/bugs/emacs-daemon-desktop-highlight-changes/.emacs.d/.emacs.desktop.lock
| Desktop: 1 frame, 1 buffer restored.
| Starting Emacs daemon.
emacsclient -s foo -c -nw
# C-x b RET ; Switch to init.el
# M-x highlight-changes-mode RET
# M-x kill-emacs RET
cp .emacs.d/.emacs.desktop desktop.bad.el
HOME=$PWD emacs --no-site-file --daemon=foo

At this point, there are two Emacs processes (the original one and its
daemon child), but they do not reach the point of creating the server
socket. No message is displayed on the terminal. On the other hand, if I
kill the Emacs processes and run ``HOME=$PWD emacs --no-site-file -nw``,
Emacs starts normally.

Here are the working (desktop.ok.el) and non-working (desktop.bad.el)
versions of .emacs.desktop from above.

Thanks.

Since you already have a working setup for reproducing the problem,
could you please attach GDB to the daemon when it hangs, and show
both a C-level and a Lisp-level backtrace?  (This could be tricky if
you don't have a working GDB installed on your macOS system, because
LLDB isn't supported by src/.gdbinit init file.  But maybe you could
do this on Ubuntu?)  This could go a long way towards identifying the
problematic piece of code.

Hello,

I've done some further debugging (analysis below) and can reproduce
the mute Emacs problem just by throwing an error from
`after-init-hook'. I filed a separate bug for that:
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=47439

The incompatibility between highlight-changes-mode, desktop and daemon
startup exists regardless of the daemon-not-starting bug since
highlight-changes-mode is not restored correctly. The
daemon-not-starting bug just made it harder to figure out what was
going on.

----------------------------------------------------------------

I built emacs-27.2 from source with debugging enabled on Linux (Ubuntu
20.04) / x84_64. I observe the same symptoms. Here's a backtrace. I
used src/.gdbinit and do get a Lisp backtrace if I attach to an Emacs
process with a non-empty Lisp call stack.

----------------------------------------------------------------

It appears that Emacs is waiting for input from an event object. I
have no idea what that event object is about, or why the daemon would
be waiting for input before starting the server.

----------------------------------------------------------------
$ ls -log /proc/1372320/fd

lrwx------ 1 64 Mar 28 00:25 7 -> 'anon_inode:[eventfd]'
----------------------------------------------------------------

I added some crude tracing in the init file:
----------------------------------------------------------------
(shell-command "echo >>trace .emacs start")
(eval-after-load 'hilit-chg '(shell-command "echo >>trace hilit-chg loaded"))
(defun my-highlight-changes-mode-hook ()
  (shell-command (format "echo >>trace 'highlight-changes-mode=%s in
%s'" highlight-changes-mode (buffer-name))))
(add-hook 'highlight-changes-mode-hook 'my-highlight-changes-mode-hook)

(setq desktop-restore-frames nil)
(desktop-save-mode)
(require 'hilit-chg)

(shell-command "echo >>trace .emacs end")
----------------------------------------------------------------

The resulting trace is:
----------------------------------------------------------------
.emacs start
hilit-chg loaded
.emacs end
----------------------------------------------------------------

My understanding is that the entry from desktop.el to
`after-init-hook' restores the buffer in highlight-changes-mode, which
calls (x-display-grayscale-p), which errors out because the daemon
doesn't have an X display. And indeed I can reproduce the problem
without session restoration or hilit-chg.el: the problem appears if
after-init-hook throws an error.

Turning on highlight-changes-mode should not depend on the
capabilities of the current terminal or display, since this can change
as new frames are attached.

I'm guessing that Emacs asked a question and is waiting for the user
to answer it.  But since you don't show the Lisp backtrace, it's hard
to know for sure.  If you type "xbacktrace", does GDB show the Lisp
backtrace?

We don't yet know if this is the problem, and thus hypothesis is
inconsistent with the fact that Emacs is waiting for the user to
answer some question.

Thanks.

I thought Emacs might be asking some question, but if so:
1. Either the question comes from C code or there's something unusual
about the context of the question that causes no Lisp backtrace to
show up.
2. A prompt is inconsistent with my reading of the code of
highlight-changes-mode, whereas an error is consistent.

Obviously it would be easier to fix #47439 first. I consider that one
more important. I originally encountered this bug when I logged in,
which runs an Emacs daemon and restores my session. Having one
buffer's modes not properly restored because highlight-changes-mode
errored out would be a very minor problem. Having the session only
partly restored because desktop-read errored out, but having a
backtrace including highlight-changes-mode and desktop-read, would
have made the problem easy to diagnose. Just having an Emacs process
that wasn't responding was painful.

No, I think you are right: Emacs is just idle here, but since it
didn't start the server, you cannot connect to it.
