unkown proc directory in root
I just noticed a new (or I just noticed it) directory in what should be the root directory or C:\cygwin, which should be the same as I understand it. But, why do I get different contents, i.e., an interesting subdirectory proc only shows up on ls /, but not ls /cygdrive/c/cygwin as shown below: $ ls / bin cygwin.bat debug.log home libexec sbin usr cygdrive cygwin.ico etclib proc tmp var $ ls /cygdrive/c/cygwin bin cygwin.bat debug.log home libexec tmp var cygdrive cygwin.ico etclib sbin usr And looking into the /proc I see $ ls /proc 1728 1952 2420 3856 cpuinfo meminfo registry statversion 1864 196 284 3900 loadavg partitions self uptime and $ls /proc/registry $ ls /proc/registry HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTHKEY_CURRENT_USER HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE HKEY_USERS HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG HKEY_DYN_DATA HKEY_PERFORMANCE_DATA which contains, a very long list of data.

1.5.24: ftp produces Operation not permitted error for some commands
I have just installed Cygwin v1.5.24 under XP Pro SP1. When trying to use /usr/bin/ftp, I can connect to ftp servers and execute some commands. However, for commands that use a data channel such as ls, put, and get, the command fails with the Operation not permitted message as in this example: ftp cd board 250 CWD command successful ftp pwd 257 /webdocs/board is current directory. ftp ls ftp: bind: Operation not permitted ftp put file.txt ftp: bind: Operation not permitted ftp get file.txt ftp: bind: Operation not permitted I have confirmed that programs such as ssh, sftp, and c:\windows\system32\ftp do not seem to have any related issues.

I did that comment, it is not speculation. I currently have no W32
machine, hence no cygwin at all.
So if you have no way to verify anything then it sounds like it would be
speculation by definition. Speculation isn't a bad word but speculating
doesn't actually do any good until someone can confirm the speculation.
Since I doubt that anyone here is going to download emacs to satisfy a
speculation that cygwin's API is broken, we obviously need more details
from people who care about this.
The code in question in glib looks like this:
static gpointer
allocator_memalign (gsize alignment,
gsize memsize)
{
gpointer aligned_memory = NULL;
gint err = ENOMEM;
#if HAVE_COMPLIANT_POSIX_MEMALIGN
err = posix_memalign (aligned_memory, alignment, memsize);
#elif HAVE_MEMALIGN
errno = 0;
aligned_memory = memalign (alignment, memsize);
err = errno;
#elif HAVE_VALLOC
errno = 0;
aligned_memory = valloc (memsize);
err = errno;
#else
/* simplistic non-freeing page allocator */
...
#endif
The #else part only calls malloc, and I assumed that it works on cygwin. It
would be a small thing to figure out which part is used on cygwin if the
config.h was available.
i.e.:
I don't know how the original poster configured Gtk+, I don't know
which version of cygwin he/she has, I don't know which version of Gtk+
he/she has. I only tried to find out if Emacs could fix this somehow,
which it can't. If the original poster ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) can
send in his/hers config.h from the Gtk+ configuration, we can figure
out what function we are talking about.
So, basically you're saying a little more work is required.
Yes, checking config.h for glib.

I assume you're going to do that. If you could come up with a simple
OOTB testcase which reproduces the problem, the simpler for us to fix
a potential bug.
Note that Cygwin exports memalign and valloc for a longer time now,
posix_memalign is only available in the developer snapshots.

sshd + bash = crush on CRs
Hi, all! After updating bash to newest version on my server I've met problems with CR on my scripts. I've solved them with setting system variable SHELLOPTS to 'igncr'. And now they work fine when I login to the server via Terminal Services. But when I login to the server via sshd (last version came with cygwin) it ignores all environment variables set in the system - SHELLOPTS too. So I have all my CR problems again. I can't put SHELLOPTS in my .bashrc or .bash_profile scripts because bash complains it's readonly. And I can't move CR out of scripts because they are checked out from CVS in one bunch with other text files that have to be with windows CR-LF. So where can I make my SHELLOPTS environment variable working in sshd too?

The number of arguments it will take for each call to the command isn't clear at all and even depends on the length of the command itself.

If someone is positing that one of several functions possibly isn't

I.e., a little more work than reposting speculation would be

I did that comment, it is not speculation. I currently have no W32
machine, hence no cygwin at all.
So if you have no way to verify anything then it sounds like it would be
speculation by definition. Speculation isn't a bad word but speculating
doesn't actually do any good until someone can confirm the speculation.
Since I doubt that anyone here is going to download emacs to satisfy a
speculation that cygwin's API is broken, we obviously need more details
from people who care about this.
The code in question in glib looks like this:
static gpointer
allocator_memalign (gsize alignment,
gsize memsize)
{
gpointer aligned_memory = NULL;
gint err = ENOMEM;
#if HAVE_COMPLIANT_POSIX_MEMALIGN
err = posix_memalign (aligned_memory, alignment, memsize);
#elif HAVE_MEMALIGN
errno = 0;
aligned_memory = memalign (alignment, memsize);
err = errno;
#elif HAVE_VALLOC
errno = 0;
aligned_memory = valloc (memsize);
err = errno;
#else
/* simplistic non-freeing page allocator */
...
#endif
The #else part only calls malloc, and I assumed that it works on cygwin.
It would be a small thing to figure out which part is used on cygwin if the
config.h was available.
i.e.:
I don't know how the original poster configured Gtk+, I don't know
which version of cygwin he/she has, I don't know which version of Gtk+
he/she has. I only tried to find out if Emacs could fix this somehow,
which it can't. If the original poster ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) can
send in his/hers config.h from the Gtk+ configuration, we can figure
out what function we are talking about.
So, basically you're saying a little more work is required.
Yes, checking config.h for glib.
Thanks much for the details. We do want to make things work correctly
but, if that just means some work in emacs source code, then someone who
is familiar with emacs will have to do that, i.e., someone else will
have to come up with the config.h.
OTOH, if someone could debug exactly why the error was occurring from
one of the above calls then maybe we could make cygwin work better,
too. Again, this requires someone who has access to emacs source
and (presumably) knows how to use a debugger.

2. The reason that the t0 t1 fails, but t0 and t1 get dumped to be

(for 64-bit) intermediate double representations. In the case of X86,
the CPU's floating-point registers are 80 bits wide.
When they get written to stack, the value is rounded (or truncated?) to
64 bits.
In the optimized code, I'll bet you that the two locals (t0 and t1) are
kept entirely in registers, at least until the t0 and t1 calls. So
at the point of comparison, it's comparing two 80-bit values, but when
you flush them to memory to dump them as integer values, they get
truncated to the (same) 64-bit value.

Surprising results (ls: no such file or directory) with managed mounts
Cygwin managed mounts give surprising (to me) results if a filename that's not in its canonical form manages to get below the managed mountpoint: $ mkdir managed unmanaged $ mount -o managed `cygpath -aw managed` $PWD/managed $ mkdir unmanaged/dir $ touch unmanaged/dir/Foo $ mv unmanaged/dir managed $ ls -l managed/dir ls: cannot access managed/dir/Foo: No such file or directory total 0 ?? ? ? ? ?? Foo This is because path.cc's fnunmunge() leaves the Win32 filename Foo alone when it returns the directory entry for readdir(), but the corresponding fnmunge() transformation for stat() turns Foo into %46oo, which doesn't exist in the directory. This problem appears to be known on the Internet, but was very puzzling to me until I figured out what was happening. Is there any reason why fnunmunge() shouldn't case-smash all non-quoted alphabetic characters in Win32 filenames to lower case? I.e., in this case, report the name of the file in managed/dir as foo? I believe this would ensure that the round-trip Win32-managed POSIX-Win32 file name transformation would always result in a valid Win32 name for the file. (I haven't been able to construct any other Win32 filenames that don't map to a valid managed-POSIX filename.) Is there a downside to this, other than an extra call to cyg_tolower in fnunmunge? -- Jonathan Lennox lennox at cs dot columbia dot edu -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
Re: cron run task can not see samba mounts.
Thanks for the link, those pointers eventually lead to me solving this nasty issue. The FAQ makes it sound simple to get private shares working, but in reality it is not entirely straight forward. Providing the password to net use while cron was being run as the SYSTEM user did not fix the issue. The share was still listed as unavailable. Likewise running cron as my own user did not fix the issue. Getting cron to run as my user was not entirely straight forward because as it turned out the /etc/passwd entry for my user was incorrect. I had to first use mkpasswd to get a valid /etc/passwd entry and then use cron-config to get cron to run as my user. Then, even after all of this, the share was still returning Unavailable. It wasn't until I additionally used net use on top of running cron as my user until I cron finally was able to properly see the private share. Is there somewhere where a more detailed how-to on this exists or perhaps a wiki where I and other users could explain this task in more detail?

Cygwin managed mounts give surprising (to me) results if a filename that's not in its canonical form manages to get below the managed mountpoint: The real fix, which I've mentioned before, would be altering rename() to fail with EXDEV when renaming files across managed mount points.

Full install hangs at gnome-vfs2.sh during install, gconftool-2 running/hung
All downloaded without install on Feb 15, 2007. Installation attempt of All on Windows XP Pro on a P4 laptop hangs when it gets to the post-install script gnome-vfs2.sh. There is a single instance of gconftool-2.exe running. CPU, disk, and network are dead idle. After 10 minutes, hit cancel and the installer exits, telling me that the installation is complete. This leaves many cygwin related tasks running. Not knowing the task structure of either cygwin nor (especially) Windows XP, I reboot to kill them off. Deleted everything installed (c:\cygwin) and retried three times with identical results. --- Tried same install with a download I make on October 27, 2005 installs and works fine, first time (This is the version I was using until last Friday). I would like to capture a good copy of the cygwin installation archive on CD for off-line use (as I did on October of 2005). How can I tell when this is fixed?

True, but these non-canonical filenames can also arise if you do mount -f -o managed EXISTING-WIN-DIR. The just don't do that argument also applies there, of course, but that's an idiom used by many pre-cygport package build scripts. (Cygport leaves off the -f, avoiding the problem.) And, of course, any non-Cygwin program writing to the managed directory can create file names not in the canonical form. -- Jonathan Lennox lennox at cs dot columbia dot edu -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

Christopher Faylor wrote: Thanks much for the details. We do want to make things work correctly but, if that just means some work in emacs source code, then someone who is familiar with emacs will have to do that, i.e., someone else will have to come up with the config.h. OTOH, if someone could debug exactly why the error was occurring from one of the above calls then maybe we could make cygwin work better, too. Again, this requires someone who has access to emacs source and (presumably) knows how to use a debugger. I got W32 and cygwin up on a (not so fast) spare box, so I'm looking in to it now. memalign is definitely the function failing, but something more is going on here, I can't yet reduce this to a more simple case.
