On the other hand, git maintains logs and merge history with author/committer distinction (particularly important for merges).

Is this the exact and full fragment of what you see? Did the build indeed try to "mv -f emacs.exe" right after loading ucs-tables/el?

Not yet, but I might have some ideas later. Emacs bootstraps (with MinGW) just fine on my XP box. But if I run temacs inside GDB, I see that loading ucs-tables.el causes `obtain' to be called 3 times with these arguments: Breakpoint 3, obtain (address=0x192c458, size=24) at ralloc.c:255 255 for (heap = last_heap; heap; heap = heap->prev) (gdb) Continuing.

Breakpoint 3, obtain (address=0x193f458, size=102512) at ralloc.c:255 255 for (heap = last_heap; heap; heap = heap->prev) Then I see an error message: Attempt to autoload define-minor-mode while preparing to dump And then it aborts. So I kinda can reproduce your problem, although it doesn't prevent bootstrapping on my system. I will try to find out why this error message is being printed, but note that I don't see any such message during the actual bootstrap, only when I run temacs _after_ bootstrapping. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 16+ messages in thread

What I wanted to say is that it looks like (what I understand was) the indian.el problem -- some resource is slowly exhausted and so the error manifests itself in some random place afterwards. First I get bootstrap failure at ucs-tables, when I remove ucs-tables I get the same failure at some next module, when I remove that new module -- another one failed.

But I cannot reproduce anything like that on Windows without Cygwin, so you will have to debug this on your machine and tell here your findings. That is the only practical way to debug this. > > Attempt to autoload define-minor-mode while preparing to dump > > > > And then it aborts.

As I explained in a follow-up message, the error message happened because I didn't run temacs with the "bootstrap" argument on the command line. > In my case obtain was called during bootstrap hundreds of time and > in your case it failed after three. There should be no reason for it to call obtain so many times, and moreover, it calls it with the same arguments again and again. Perhaps try downgrading to the previous version of Cygwin--there might be some bug in the latest version. > I have not seen *any* error messages during bootstrap -- it just > silently failed. The silent failure is another puzzle: did it abort? did it exit with a failure indication? Perhaps putting a breakpoint on the lowest-level exit routine you can will shed some light on this.

I made the following experiment: I installed cygwin 1.5.18-1 and now ./temacs.exe --batch --load loadup bootstrap creates emacs.exe BTW, I have not rebuild temacs because most of build tools are not compatible with the old cygwin dll, e.g., rm produces an error The procedure entry point getline could not be located in the [DLL] cygwin1.dll I reverted back to 19-4 and now temacs again fails with apparent recursion (malloc() from cygwin1.dll calls malloc from temacs). > > I have no doubt about it -- I currently use emacs which was built from > > cvs on 2006-01-16 (before I upgraded cygwin) and the problems with > > build starts to appear only *after* the last cygwin update. > > Then it's probably a good idea to post the information you found on > the Cygwin mailing list.

The problem is that I have no idea what to tell them: temacs fails with DLL 1.5.19-4 but dumps emacs with DLL 1.5.18-1 is not a reasonable bug report. Let me put the question differently: what was changed between 18-1 and 19-4 in the DLL (note that .h files are irrelevant since I used temacs built with 19-4).

Please try to nail down the problem somewhat further, for instance, by providing a minimal testcase which allows to reproduce the problem with a minimum of involved code. Since this revolves around malloc, it might be worth to note that two changes to malloc have been made in Cygwin between 1.5.18 and 1.5.19. First, we switched from Doug Lea's malloc implementation version 2.8.0 to 2.8.3, second, due to a reworked mmap implementation, which uses simple VirtualAlloc for private anonymous maps, we lowered the DEFAULT_MMAP_THRESHOLD from 16 Megs to the usual default of 256K.

BTW, this host has cygwin1.dll 1.5.19-4 (build date > 2006-01-20 13:28), gcc 3.4.4, and Win2K. After some more tinkering, I think I know why the error message about autoloading define-minor-mode doesn't show during bootstrapping. The function eval.c:do_autoload, which issues that message, does this: /* This is to make sure that loadup.el gives a clear picture of what files are preloaded and when. */ if (! NILP (Vpurify_flag)) error ("Attempt to autoload %s while preparing to dump", SDATA (SYMBOL_NAME (funname))); So this message and the resulting abort should only happen when purify-flag is non-nil. However, loadup.el does this: (if (or (equal (nth 3 command-line-args) "bootstrap") (equal (nth 4 command-line-args) "bootstrap") ;; in case CANNOT_DUMP (equal (nth 0 command-line-args) "../src/bootstrap-emacs")) (let ((dir (car load-path))) ;; We'll probably overflow the pure space. (setq purify-flag nil) (setq load-path (list dir (expand-file-name "emacs-lisp" dir) (expand-file-name "language" dir) (expand-file-name "international" dir) (expand-file-name "textmodes" dir))))) So during bootstrap, purify-flag is nil, and the error never happens. So now the question is, why doesn't this work for Cygwin? Doesn't Cygwin support dumping or something? is purify-flag indeed nil during bootstrap of the Cygwin port? or maybe some of your investigations were not in the bootstrap context, so purify-flag was non-nil? And another puzzle: if autoloading define-minor-mode aborts the Cygwin bootstrap, why doesn't that happen earlier, in help.el, for example, which also uses define-minor-mode? Finally, just to make sure we are not chasing a wild goose, could you please see if the message about autoloading define-minor-mode is indeed the reason for the abort? ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 16+ messages in thread
