I'm sorry, I totally misread that, then. I think of redisplay cycles as
beginning when redisplay() is called and ending when it returns, so in my
terminology the "next" redisplay cycle is the one that will happen after
control briefly (or not so briefly, see below) returns to the command loop
and redisplay() is called again. I don't insist on my terminology, but I
don't understand what yours is.
I understood "next redisplay cycle" to refer to the redisplay cycle for
which redisplay() has not yet been called, not the one for which
redisplay() has already been called.

Except when they're not, I've just seen this backtrace:
#0 grow_mini_window (w=0x1265ef0, delta=210, pixelwise=true) at
window.c:4488

That's calling resize_mini_window *between* pre-redisplay-function and
window-size-change-functions. I had not thought of that possibility. This
was triggered by C-x C-e in an elisp buffer after "(read-from-minibuffer
longstring)".

But here you're using "next redisplay cycle" to mean the one that has not
been started (redisplay() hasn't been called yet), not the one we're
currently in.
I had assumed your message referred to the state of Emacs as of HEAD, not
with my proposed changes included.

Because the next call to redisplay() might not be until five seconds later.

That wasn't clear to me. If you're asking "will you shut up already if the
changes you've already proposed go in", the answer is yes.
So, in the hopes of finally clarifying matters:
I want two things.
Wish #1: a way of knowing "when" windows are resized or moved, even
temporarily. Whether that "when" is "just before" or "just after" doesn't
really matter, but it should be one of those.
Wish #2: a way of knowing, in advance, that a window is going to be resized
or moved, even temporarily, before any of that hits the X server. That
would eliminate the (small) window left by #1 when the X server has been
updated but redisplay hasn't been called again.
Wish #1, assuming something like my proposed changes go in and this bug is
closed, has been granted; there's a race condition, but I might just have
to live with that.
Wish #2 eliminates the race condition.

The one I call "the current cycle"?

That's not what I seeing running x_sync manually. I'm still grateful for

Thanks for the warning. I verified with x_sync that the changes had been
written to the glass.
I think we agree on what's happening:
1. user input
2. redisplay called
3. prepare_menu_bars called, calls hooks. Hooks think nothing has changed.
4. grow_mini_window called, calculates new window size
5. update_frame is called, writes the new, enlarged mini-window to the glass
6. control returns to command loop
7. redisplay is called again
8. prepare_menu_bars called, calls hooks. Hooks notice mini-window has
resized.
Right?
But there's no guarantee that there won't be intermediate commands executed
between steps 6 and 7. In fact (progn (message "long message") (sleep
10.0)) will make step 8 happen ten seconds after the changed sizes have
been written to the glass.
Wish #2 would mean swapping steps 3 and 4.
Thanks again, particularly for the warning about update_frame not doing
anything,
Pip
