* emacs 23.0.60.1 built today (11th feb 2008) crashes under Vista

Hello, I just built a fresh trunk checkout on my WinXP machine. The 
binaries seem to work fine (though the annoying coding system warning is 
still present). I used --enable-font-backend during the configure step. 
However, those binaries crashes immediately under Windows Vista.
You can do emacs --version and emacs -help, the expected output is 
displayed. However, emacs -Q crashes immediately (and without -Q).

Under cygwin (on my vista machine), I tried:
$ strace emacs -Q
just to see what strace would say:
--- Process 3660, exception C00000005 at 77DF986B

was the only output.

Please run emacs under gdb to find where it crashes.

It helps a bit. I don't know whether its the absence of source/object 
files on the machine where this is being debugged, the flags used to 
build Emacs, or an incompatibility between mingw and cygwin but the 
backtrace is missing file and line number information. The file I can 
work out (w32.c), but if the line number was there it would be more 
apparent what was going wrong.

I just remembered that my build script passes --no-debug during the 
configure step. Would it be worthwhile to rebuild without it?

Yes. Using --no-debug for a development copy is generally a bad idea. 
Even for release builds, the savings in size and speed are insignificant 
on modern hardware.

Here we go. Also, this time I added -Q when performing "run" under gdb:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x77df986b in ?? ()
(gdb) bt
#0  0x77df986b in ?? ()

#3  0x0100260e in main (argc=2, argv=0x8828f0) at emacs.c:1506
(gdb)

At least we have line numbers now.

Yes.  Can you please step into get_sid_sub_authority_count, and see
what happens there?  Does it fail to load advapi32.dll, perhaps?  Or
does it succeed, but the return value of get_sid_sub_authority_count
is NULL, and then dereferencing it in init_user_info crashes?

Thanks.

I'm doing a fresh build right now (I wonder if I should have disabled 
the new font backend this time to see what happened, oh well). Could you 
explain how exactly I would do that in gdb? If I copy the source along 
with the binaries, will gdb be able to find it and I can put a 
breakpoint in there? I usually copy what gets put in the directory when 
I do a make install.

The default is to build with font backend disabled, so if you didn't
_enable_ it, you are building without it.

> Could you explain how exactly I would do that in gdb?

From the src directory:

  gdb ./oo-spd/i386/emacs.exe
  (gdb) break init_user_info
  (gdb) run -Q

Then, when it stops in init_user_info, type:

  (gdb) until 619

(619 is the number of the line where it calls
get_sid_sub_authority_count.)

When it stops at line 619, type "step" repeatedly to step through
get_sid_sub_authority_count, and see what happens there.

If you compiled with optimizations, it could be that
get_sid_sub_authority_count is inlined, and you will have difficulties
stepping through it.  If that happens, please recompile without
optimizations (edit gmake.defs to remove the -U2 compiler switch, then
run configure, make, make install to rebuild).

If it doesn't find the sources, use the `dir' command to tell GDB
where to find the sources.  This command accepts a name of a directory
and adds it to the list of directories where GDB looks for sources.

Btw, is that a 32-bit Vista or a 64-bit one?

Since we're talking about running Emacs under the nastiest PC
operating system ever seen, I think it is relevant to direct
people's attention to BadVista.org.

Thanks.

Would it be possible for you to build Emacs without the change below,
and then see if it works on Vista?  TIA

You can try updating to a previous version, for example, in src/ do

  cvs update -r 1.122 -p w32.c > w32.c

(the -p and redirection is to avoid the change being sticky, i.e.,
w32.c to be pegged to revision 1.122).

Thanks, I'll try that as soon as the error introduced to coding.c is 
fixed so I can bootstrap again. :)

Just change the ASLOTs to AREF in the CODING_ATTR_* defines of coding.h

Please explain what error is introduced to coding.c.  I'm
sorry but I have not followed the discussion of this
subject.

I am happy to report that Emacs does indeed not crash on Vista after 
reverting the changes to w32.c, using the method suggested by Juanma. 
Hopefully a proper fix (because I assume the changes I reverted have 
some purpose too) isn't too hard to do.

- Eric

One possibility is that user_sid is not large enough to hold the sub 
authorities on Vista. One way to check this is to look at the value of 
trash in init_user_info just before the crash occurs. That should 
contain the size that was required. This code could all be written more 
robustly, checking the size and using alloca to temporarily allocate a 
larger buffer where necessary.

Could you please compile the program below and run it on Vista with
some file name (a name of any existing file) as a single argument?
Then please post here everything it prints.  That might give me enough
information to fix the code.

I never liked the way that code casts structures to `PSID *', as in

      lookup_account_sid (NULL, *((PSID *) user_sid), name, &length,

This smells of abusing some object by a subtly incompatible pointer.
But that's how that part of the code was written before me, and it
worked on XP and saved me yet another dance with a function that needs
to be called via a pointer after loading a DLL.

Hopefully, the program I sent earlier, if it doesn't crash on Vista,
will give me enough information to rewrite that code in a more robust
way.

I had to comment out #include <tchar.h> to get it to compile under 
cygwin's gcc in mingw mode. Here's the output from both mingw and visual 
c++ 9:

(Greetings, fellow co-conspirator (http://catb.org/~esr/ecsl/))

What do you actually see when it crashes?  I ask because _sometimes_
when I start Emacs, I see a popup that says something like "Emacs has
stopped working".  The popup has a progress bar which moves left and
right to give the illusion that Windows is looking for a solution to the
problem.

If you're seeing the same thing, then maybe the fix for your problem
will also fix mine ...

you an excuse for being lazy, the other one is probably right.

Could you please try again with the latest version in CVS?

Hmm... there's something I'm missing here, obviously.

Could you please again step through the call to
get_sid_sub_authority_count, and print the value of pSid at each step?
The command "display/x pSid" should do that; please type this command
as soon as you step into get_sid_sub_authority_count, and then
continue with the "next" command until the crash.  I also need the to
see value of user_token.User.Sid inside init_user_info, immediately
before the call to get_sid_sub_authority_count.

Thanks, and sorry for the mess.

As you know, I'm not very good at gdb. I had some problems when 
debugging this (and here I'm refering to the "Cannot find bounds of 
current function", see below). Hope this log helps, if not, I can 
attempt to redo it in a proper way, with your guidance.

At this point, i.e. _before_ line 409, please type these commands, and
tell me what they printed:

  p ((SID *)pSid)->Revision
  p ((SID *)pSid)->SubAuthorityCount
  p *((SID *)pSid)->SubAuthority@7

Also, I see that you run Emacs on the Vista as administrator.  Could
you please try running it as an ordinary user, and see if it still
crashes?  For that matter, does it work on XP if you run Emacs as
administrator?

Thanks again for helping me debug this.

Hope I got this right:
(gdb) n
405       if (s_pfn_Get_Sid_Sub_Authority_Count == NULL)
(gdb) p ((SID *)pSid)->Revision
$1 = 1 '\001'
(gdb) p ((SID *)pSid)->SubAuthorityCount
$2 = 5 '\005'
(gdb) p ((SID *)pSid)->SubAuthority@7
$3 = {{21}, {2313625805}, {1149499212}, {3830963393}, {1000}, 
{59246848}, {8579528}}
(gdb)

I will have to get back to you on that one, I'm not familiar with 
setting up other users under Vista. In fact, I'm not very familiar with 
Vista at all. I just got the laptop that came with it.
However, I am running XP using an administrator account.

Hope this information helps in the meantime.

I created a normal user account, didn't try debugging or anything, just 
tried to start emacs with -Q and it crashes.

Almost: you forgot the leading asterisk in the last command, right
after "p":

  p *((SID *)pSid)->SubAuthority@7

Please tell me what this prints.

The rest looks good: the information is there, it's just that Vista
somehow refuses to produce it, or so it seems.  Hmm...

Thanks.

This rejects yet another hypothesis.

Sorry about that, here's what I get. Quite similar output:
(gdb) p *((SID *)pSid)->SubAuthority@7
$3 = {21, 2313625805, 1149499212, 3830963393, 1000, 60098816, 8579528}

I'm having a close watch on my email to see if there are any more tests 
you would like me to perform. Thank you very much for working on this.

- Eric
