[PATCH] fix make after clean
If you run make clean in winsup/cygwin followed by make -jX, the build
fails because devices.cc is not found; it was removed by make clean but
nothing forced it to be regenerated in time.

[PATCH] make sys/sysmacros.h compatible with glibc
When building Qt Creator, I encountered a compile error because its code
uses 'major' and 'minor' as variable names. Looking at the current
sys/sysmacros.h, which is pulled in automatically by sys/types.h,
makes it obvious why that doesn't work.
Since this code obviously compiles on Linux, I investigated further,
starting with:
http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/online/pages/man3/minor.3.html
and running some tests on a Linux system. In short, with glibc:
1) these are indeed macros, but;
2) the [name] macros point to gnu_dev_[name] functions;
3) the latter are defined as inline functions in sys/sysmacros.h;
4) the inline functions are used only if optimization is on.
Based on this, I refactored our existing macros into both inline and
normal functions. An additional benefit is type-checking in the
arguments and return types of these functions.
Patches for winsup/cygwin and winsup/doc attached.

The __INSIDE_CYGWIN_foo__ naming scheme seems to be what is used

There is a __INSIDE_CYGWIN_NET__ which I apparently added ten years ago
but my ideas about naming have changed. I also added
USE_SYS_TYPES_FD_SET which is closer to what I now prefer but it should
have had some leading underscores.

Maybe the functions were added to gcc before it had the ability to force
inlining.
I'll leave it to Corinna but I'd prefer not adding YA export if we can
avoid it.

Why can't setup.exe, when I want to uninstall this package, also uninstall all the dependancies? Please make the next Cygwin release support clean uninstalls. That's not as easy as it might initially sound. Uninstalling all dependencies might result in other utilities not working, since these dependencies could be shared. Determining the dependencies to install is easier than determining those that are safe to uninstall. So that's by way of explanation for why you see the behavior you currently see from 'setup.exe' when uninstalling a package. That said, it is possible to figure out which dependencies could safely be uninstalled. It depends. ;) When uninstalling a package, it sure makes sense to uninstall all the packages that depend on it, since they would stop working anyway. So for example, removing the libX11 runtime would be a quick way to remove all X11 programs. However, removing a package because an uninstalled package depends on is not generally a good idea, even if no other package depends on it. That's because the user might still require it, either directly or perhaps through a program they've built from source. For example, mintty depends on cygutils (for its postinstall script), but removing mintty doesn't mean that the user no longer wants to run cygstartCo. Other package managers address this by keeping a record of which packages were requested explicitly by the user and which were installed implicitly as dependencies of other packages. Even then, the user might come to depend on packages that were only installed implicitly, so there's still scope for uninstalling packages accidentally, but at least there's a simple remedy: explicitly request such packages and it won't happen again. In any case, improving support for uninstalling stuff isn't exactly a new suggestion, and as usual, the real problem is: http://www.cygwin.com/acronyms/#SHTDI Andy -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
Re: [1.7.9] bash: warning: setlocale: LC_COLLATE: cannot change locale (FR)
2011/4/3 Frédéric Bron: I have just upgraded to 1.7.9: $ uname CYGWIN_NT-5.1 VOR-CRV-01660 1.7.9(0.237/5/3) 2011-03-29 10:10 i686 Cygwin I now get this message when starting mintty (C:\cygwin-1.7\bin\mintty.exe -): -bash: warning: setlocale: LC_COLLATE: cannot change locale (FR) Check the locale setting on the Text page of mintty's options dialog. The warning remains if .bashrc and .bash_profile are empty. For some reason, even if I do not set it, I have LANG=FR. I have also tried to add: export LANG=C.UTF-8 and/or export LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 in .bashrc but it does not change anything. That's because setting the locale there is too late both for mintty and for bash.

[1.7.9] bash: warning: setlocale: LC_COLLATE: cannot change locale (FR)
On Monday, 4 April 2011, Frédéric Bron wrote: I now get this message when starting mintty (C:\cygwin-1.7\bin\mintty.exe -): -bash: warning: setlocale: LC_COLLATE: cannot change locale (FR) Check the locale setting on the Text page of mintty's options dialog. It was empty. Which is the default, in which case mintty uses the locale set in its environment, or Cygwin's default locale if nothing is set. So this probably means that something has set LANG to 'FR' in your Windows environment. You could try confirming that in a Command Prompt. That now works fine. You mean after setting the locale in the mintty options? Thank you. You're welcome. I wonder why it was working fine with 1.7.8... I don't think it's anything to do with the update. There's been no relevant change, and there's no good reason why Cygwin would set a locale like that. A valid one would be 'fr_FR'. I'd suspect some other software you installed or updated around the same time. Another Unix environment perhaps?

Re: Zsh completion problem
On Fri, 1 Apr 2011, Vikas Mishra wrote: Greetings, Vikas, Any suggestions anyone? I would really like to have completion in my zsh shells. Incidentally I installed from source in cygwin and still have the same issue. So I don't believe it is a package issue. I think it may be a bigger issue with my cygwin environment. I think you're going to have to give me some examples of what completion you are attempting. I still can't make this fail no matter what I try. Your .zcompdump looks fine to me and if I strip my config to be just your example (uncommented, of course) I can't make it fail.

This was a build error on my part for 4.3.11-1, which was corrected in 4.3.11-2. (Make sure you have installed 4.3.11-2, btw :-) I just installed this cygwin installation today and I think 4.3.11-2 was release in early January so I believe I do have the latest version. With the permissions wrong, compinit fails to load any of the completion functions and ends up creating a very, very abbreviated .zcompdump file (less than 1k in size, versus 30k size). In my case, the size of zcompdump was 32KB (I had forgotten to mention it the first time around). I have attached the zcompdump file so that you can see if this is correct or not. You can tell this by looking at the .zcompdump and if it things like _comps() are mostly empty, then you are hitting the problem. Verify that you .zcompdump has move that a few functions in it and verify the permissions on all directories under /usr/share/zsh/4.3.11 are 755 (rwxr-xr-x) and that all files under those directories are 644 (rw-r--r--). I rechecked the permissions on the directories and they were correct. I have also attached the smallest version of my zshrc which still has a problem - basically this is just autoload -U compinit compinit. I installed version 4.3.10 (with the Cygwin installer and have the same problem). Let me know if any more info will help. Regards, Vikas -- Peter A.

Utility: injob
Attached is a small program that runs a set of processes under an NT job
object, allowing you to stop, resume, and kill them using normal Cygwin
job control --- whether or not these processes are Cygwin programs.
The program doesn't address every corner case, and programs run under
injob might behave strangely if they use job objects themselves.
Nevertheless, it suits my purposes, and it might be useful to others.

* Small utility to run an arbitrary set of processes within a job

*
* It works like this:
*
* - Startup.
*
* - Create a pipe with ends P_R and P_W.
*
* - Block signals.
*
* - Fork
*
* * Child closes P_W, blocks reading P_R. If it gets EOF, child
* knows parent died for some reason and exits without doing
* anything else.
*
* * Child reads 1 byte from pipe, indicating all-clear.
*
* * Child execs target program.
*
* - Meanwhile parent closes P_R and knows child is blocked on pipe.
*
* - Parent creates job object and puts the child
* into it (child is still blocked).
*
* - Parent gives all-clear signal to child by writing one byte to
* P_W and closing it.
*
* - Parent waits for SIGINT, SIGTERM, SIGCHLD, etc.
