Trunk. Development. Testing.
by Aleksey Bragin 17 Oct '06

17 Oct '06

Hello, I have thought long time before writing this email, and finally it's time to write it... N.B. I don't intend to hurt or offense anyone in this email. And there is not so much use from a project leader who only says "yes", "good", "agreed". We all see ReactOS became quite a big thing. Big everywhere - source code, goals, development time... I think one would wish every FOSS project to gain that level and speed of development. If someone of you played Civ during youth, you certainly remember that your cities can't grow, grow and grow without any efforts - people become unhappy, city is ovecrowded, demanding sanitation and special facilities in order to continue growth. If you don't provide those needed facilities, the city is going to at least stop its development, and usually goes into disorder due to unhappines. Similar thing happens in software development too. Once project reached certain size (even in terms of SLOC), developers' "tools" should be upgraded and enhanced. That's it for theory. Let's have a look at ReactOS, and more specifically its trunk. I'm getting more and more complaints that trunk is unstable, remains unstable, and most of the time doesn't even boot, and the time came to actually solve this problem, once and for ever. As an example, I will show only one of common scenario: Some developer commits his code, which works for him on his, say, qemu but doesn't work for another dev on his real hardware. That developer continues to commit code, and in some time encounters that dev whose machine doesn't boot reactos and he says: "hey, you ...ng ...rd, you broke trunk!". I don't even dare to cite which reply follows, because it would take a few pages to quote. The developer who broke trunk starts to regress test, reverting revision by revision, spending time to identify the regressed revision (this may take a few days, and we don't have fulltime paid developers), and then finally finds the bug, fixes and commits. By that time, another developer commits code with a regression in other place, and trunk is still unbootable. And blaming continues, flamewars start, who broke what, instead of actually enjoying the development process. Pretty unproductive, yeah? And you, the reader, are definately wondering - what is the solution? I answer: There are a few solutions, but as always I will list only a few 1) "Wine"-method. There is one leader who decides what, how and when to commit. He maintains the tree, he makes sure tree is in good shape, he spends all of his time to do testing, merging, reverting, remerging. It works really good for Wine. Will it work good for us? I am in doubts, really. 2) Improving our current development system. That's the direction I would like to use. Major and the first improvement needed is testing. Testing often, testing early, automating testing, getting more people to test, regress test and feed results back to developers. Buildbot was a step in this direction, but more steps are needed. If someone broke booting, a proper recognized complain would be "Revision NNXXY regresses 3rd boot with a bugcheck code NN stack trace attached". The sooner this information is available and developer is notified - the faster this bug will be solved. If developer is inaccessible within a long period of time, a decision to revert this revision might be taken (that should be a really rare case). This shouldn't come to absurd of course, I can tolerate having trunk broken for a few hours certainly, when developer is working on a certain feature, and, well, of course he may mistake, not fully commit something and so forth. But having it half-broken for 2 weeks AND noone took time to regress test and find the guilty revision. Or yet another example, fortunately last for this email. I implemented an "alpha" version of usb mouse driver, along with that recently incorporated NT4 compatible usb driver. And assumed, and even asked in irc to test it - it's not that hard, but gives me a chance to fix not-so-obvious issues before it'll be enabled by default in trunk and will drive people crazy with some regress which I didn't see on my machine, and, at last, even hearing "yay, your usb mouse driver works!" just simply motivates me to finish e.g. a usb keyboard driver, find and fix bugs, etc. Conclusions. 1) To improve development quality we must improve testing. Automate, gather bigger testing team, etc. 2) Developers must be way more careful during commit. Just remember a simple rule: Trunk is not a wastebin where you dump code to. It's quite the opposite. Feedback. Your feedback is greatly encouraged and awaited. Feel free to discuss this in this ML. With the best regards, Aleksey Bragin ReactOS Project Coordinator

Actual NTLDR boot screenshot
by Alex Ionescu 02 Oct '06

02 Oct '06

Sometimes pictures speak better then commit messages, so here's the current boot status: http://www.tinykrnl.org/ros_by_ntldr.png It fails because our Memory Manager early-boot initialization depends on some freeldr information. If I can/have time, I'll try to make it not depend on them, and/or use NTLDR structures instead. Anyways, serial debug printing works and the GDT, IDT, TSS, KPCR are all setup, so this can now be used as a good tool for blackboxing ntldr. -- Best regards, Alex Ionescu Project Lead, TinyKRNL Kernel-Mode Software Design Engineer, ReactOS

Working trunk?
by Alex Ionescu 30 Sep '06

30 Sep '06

Hi, I took a break from the project hoping any regressions I might've caused could be found/fixed... isntead, I now find myself with an OS that won't recognize my mouse/keyboard. I've tried rebooting it to re-start 2nd stage (which used to work before), but all this does is gradually damage the registry more and more, either leading to aSSERTs or freeldr codepage error. This is with a 100% clean trunk on QEMU 0.8.2. -- Best regards, Alex Ionescu Project Lead, TinyKRNL Kernel-Mode Software Design Engineer, ReactOS

Time date control panel applet bug and DrawStatusText issues
by Felipe Villarroel 28 Sep '06

28 Sep '06

Hello list!, i have two questions that i hope that someone of you could answer. The first one: - Should RegOpenKeyExW() do a SetLastError() or it just return an error code? I ask this because in the timedate control panel applet, GetSyncSetting() reads a key from the registry using that function and if it fails it calls the function GetError() that calls FormatMessage() using GetLastError() as an argument. For some reason in my computer this call fails and i receive an window that says "ERROR_INVALID_WINDOW_HANDLE" that obviously is not the right error code. This bug could be reproduced by double clicking in the Hour located in the right corner of the start menu bar. Next you click the Internet Time tab and you should receive the error. To fix this i can think of two possibilities: - Modify RegOpenKeyExW() to do a SetLastError() if this fails to set a right code for GetLastError(), or - Modify the GetError() function in the timedate control panel applet I don't know which is the right way to fix this. Finally in my opinion, if an error occurs in this situation i think that no message should appear because i think that is not too bad if this key isn't present. And the second question follows... - I have written a program that displays a Status bar using the DrawStatusText() function. In Windows it is working pretty well but in ReactOS it doesnt. DrawStatusText() in ReactOS doesnt draw a background when calling this function thus my status window draws over itself each time i receive a WM_PAINT message. So its clear that in windows DrawStatusText() draws a background before painting the text, but in ReactOS it doesnt. Currently i have hacked the DrawStatusText() function to draw a background like this: void WINAPI DrawStatusTextW (HDC hdc, LPRECT lprc, LPCWSTR text, UINT style) { RECT r = *lprc; UINT border = BDR_SUNKENOUTER; HBRUSH hBkBrush, hOldBrush; if (style & SBT_POPOUT) border = BDR_RAISEDOUTER; else if (style & SBT_NOBORDERS) border = 0; DrawEdge (hdc, lprc, border, BF_RECT|BF_ADJUST); /* now draw text */ if (text) { int oldbkmode = SetBkMode (hdc, TRANSPARENT); UINT align = DT_LEFT; if (*text == L'\t') { text++; align = DT_CENTER; if (*text == L'\t') { text++; align = DT_RIGHT; } } r.left += 3; if (style & SBT_RTLREADING) FIXME("Unsupported RTL style!\n"); // yep this fixed the problem, but i don't know what the // right color it is hBkBrush = GetSysColorBrush(GetSysColor(COLOR_BTNFACE)); hOldBrush = SelectObject(hdc, hBkBrush); FillRect(hdc, lprc, hBkBrush); DrawTextW (hdc, text, -1, lprc, align|DT_VCENTER|DT_SINGLELINE|DT_NOPREFIX); SelectObject(hdc, hOldBrush); SetBkMode(hdc, oldbkmode); } } Attached i send the code that shows this "bug" and a precompiled binary. Also i have tested this program under WINE with the same results (0.9.x i think). Thats all, Best regards, Felipe Villarroel -- _______________________________________________ Get your free email from http://www.linuxmail.org Powered by Outblaze

Re: [ros-dev] [ros-diffs] [hpoussin] 24286: Support mount manager in disk.sys

FTDISK is responsible for all the code you've added, not disk.sys, and if we're going to implement NT5+ Storage stack features on top of an NT4 driver, this will mean either one of these two things: 1) A crappy "ROS" stack that's incompatible with anything NT offers (and the storage stack is heavily documented in NT, so we're at a big loss if we do this). 2) Someone will have to eventually re-write even more code to make it compatible. I suggest you work on implementing an XP/2K3 style classpnp driver first. The WDK and TinyKRNL have sample source code (non-reversed), and there's 50 pages of documentation on it. Once that works, a new disk.sys can be written (same information as above is available). Then ftdisk should follow. It handles all Fault-Tolerance stuff, but about 6000 lines of it are responsible for the glue layer between the storage stack. TinyKRNL has just finished implementing it, so the information and documentation located there should be helpful (using TinyKRNL documentation and code for learning purposes is fully in-line with our IP policy and the whole point of the project). Then partmgr, mountmgr can be written. These are also implemented in TinyKRNL completely. (Except GPT support). Finally, some parts of the kernel's IoMgr needs to be changed in the method in which it sets up disk letters, and kernel32 needs some new code (which Filip has on his disk). -- Best regards, Alex Ionescu Project Lead, TinyKRNL Kernel-Mode Software Design Engineer, ReactOS

Mailserver and website migration over
by Aleksey Bragin 24 Sep '06

24 Sep '06

Hello, The ReactOS server is finally fully migrated now, including mailing lists, webserver with all its contents, SVN server, etc. Thanks for your patience during the server movement, we had to change really a lot of stuff, to make future transfers easier, to prevent "slashdotting" and many many other things. I am very pleased to announce that now everything is in place and is expected to work as it always did. There is a note however, for translators and admins, the static webpages are cached now and are automatically updated every 2 hours. So a change in the static web page can take as much as 2 hours before it goes "live". With the best regards, Aleksey Bragin. P.S. That spammer in ros-dev is unsubscribed from the list.

win32k coding standart

Hi. I have two questions: 1) Do we still use DECLARE_RETURN\CLEANUP macros, or it is obsolete and shouldn't be used any more? Why not use goto directly? 2) Do we still use MmCopyFromCaller\MmCopyToCaller or not? (I heared the new standart is to use probing macros and SEH )

> "Neither UNTFS.DLL nor UFAT.DLL call file system drivers to take any part in a format or chkdsk operation - they directly read and write raw clusters on the drive." That's why you have to unmount the drive when ie. formatting or chkdsk'ing it. Defragmentation however can be done whithout unmounting, because the fs driver handles this job. The IOCTLs are documented in the platform sdk, defragmentation really doesn't work using fmifs/ufat/untfs/u... - Thomas

The current design of defrag, chkdsk, recover FAT manipulation utilities in FreeDOS is that there is a FAT manipulation library called the "FAT transformation engine" that all the other utilities use. The big benefit of using this library is that it let's you write code to manipulate the FAT file system that works on FAT12, FAT16, FAT32 without knowing the exact FAT file system this is going to run on. The same code works for FAT12, FAT16, FAT32 without having code that looks like: if it is FAT12 do this, and if it is FAT16 do that and if it is FAT32 do again something else. Like is done in the reactos loader (freeloader?) This is optimized code that is used in real life programs. Anyway this could be used as the basis for ufat.dll. The utilities that already use this library could then also be put in here. And the rest can then be easily written. What would then be needed is the actual functions that make up the interface to ufat.dll. I've seen that there is example code on the internet that uses these functions.
