New builder available
by Olaf Siejka 19 Mar '11

19 Mar '11

Dear colleagues I am very pleased to inform you that a new builder has been just made operational. Named Patch_x86_GCCWin Debug, you can see it waterfall right now. Based on x86 RBuild trunk, its capable of downloading a patch from bugzilla, applying it to trunk, building reactos testcd and running winetests on it via VBox sysreg. To use it, just pass revision, as well as Parameter 1, name id, value: attachement id. For example, http://www.reactos.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=5989 name: id, value: 5989 Just the same way you use source for vbox retesting. Right now test ISOs are stored, named with x86_Patch, revision and patch id. Logs itself will be also stored (when i bugfix them) If any issues arise, please mail me or catch me on irc.

Choice of google summer of code project
by Andrew Green 18 Mar '11

18 Mar '11

I have been investigating a lot of aspects about theming, and my make that my proposal. Though I have been thinking that will not be of much valuable in the short term or in learning ongoing skills that will be needed in reactos. Of course on of the stated goals of gsoc or to give programmers the skills to contribute in the long term. So I was wondering what were your ideas on what would be considered valuable short term and what would give the skills to to help reactos in the long term. I know it is still 18 hours until google summer of code organizations are announced, but I'm sure reactos will be accepted. Any thoughts or suggestions would be much appreciated.

After the release
by Olaf Siejka 15 Mar '11

15 Mar '11

Hiya I would like to point out to actions in my opinion necessary to be done after the release: 1. Syncing: Starting a new development/release cycle is the best moment for winesync to be performed. Syncing early will give us much time to find and wipe all Wine-originated bugs, which are simply unavoidable. The Winesync itself should be spreaded to as many revisions as its possible/feasible, as it will help out testers to regress-test any issues more precisely. Before Winesync can be performed, CMake branch should be synchronized with current trunk and the revision synchronized - locked up as reference frame for any Trunk-CMake comparison tests. We would not want CMake effort to be delayed due to any issues with WINE code in trunk. 2. Patches Now guys, i know i`m repeating myself, but please be warned that i will not drop this issue. The way our project is handling patches from outside is absolutely counterproductive. This is the only way new devs can be recruited and get commit access, but delays in reviewing and even reacting to patches is disgraceful. We are driving away potential newcomers, something no one should wonder about, if it often takes months for someone to write down a simple question about the patch content... We are risking a potential project dawnfall if we continue doing this way. I know you are busy with real life, project and other stuff, but seriously, this approach will only make things even more difficult. I did all things i could think of to help you out. Patches are now clearly tagged, listed in accessible way ( http://www.reactos.org/wiki/Bug_Filters ), i even tried to filter them, moving old and questionable stuff into separate directory (WIP aka Work in progress). Right now i took the more direct step of assigning patches to devs personally. It might be questionable, please react in such cases and comment, i will gladly relocate, but please do react. Due to Daniel recent issues and lack of free time, i volunteered for commit translation patches, at least those that can be done easily. Next thing planned here, is a builder dedicated to patch testing, but this is just a rough plan for futher discussion. I would be grateful for ANY feedback from you, perhaps some things could be done better/differently. Thanks in advance for your comments

Last 0.3.13 tests
by Colin Finck 14 Mar '11

14 Mar '11

Hi all, The branch with all planned changes for 0.3.13 has been finished now and I've uploaded a first build: http://svn.reactos.org/prereleases/ReactOS-0.3.13-prerelease-r51045-bootcd.… It's now time to test this build out and update http://reactos.org/wiki/Tests_for_0.3.13 accordingly. mIRC has already been discovered as a prominent failing application, which just crashes upon connecting (see http://www.reactos.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6005). I consider this a release blocker bug, so some networking guy should look at it. - Colin

Hi all! Since everyone works so fast to ride my ass for breaking things, I hope one of you have a fix for this one and also hope this did not make it into branch! The commit breaks things, I wanted Michael to review the patch before hand. I'm sure any of the IRC archives can find my comments. Going on Holiday, James

by Pierre Schweitzer 08 Mar '11

08 Mar '11

Hi, this commits just shows you didn't understand how that function works. If you had, you wouldn't have said: "- Implement parameters checking in FsRtlIsNameInExpressionPrivate." It's already done. "- Add two shortcuts for common wildcard invocations to make the function faster." If you look at the algorithm, it will take at maximum as much loop iterations as name length. "- Second (main part of the function) is still under review." Thanks for discussing the issue with the original author of the algorithm, especially since you don't understand it. Furthermore, if you're not happy with said algorithm, you were asked to review it more than a year ago, and for at least 6 months. Thing that you NEVER did. So, now you discovered what my mail address is, contact me before committing anything wrong/useless to current code. And as you said less than a week ago, focus on fixing things that don't work, instead of rewriting working code. And as someone else also said once: 1:1 isn't the solution everywhere. Or if you think so, start dropping arwinss. Of course, don't take that personal, I like everyone ;-). Regards, P. Schweitzer

Now you criptified it back to a raw Reg[0] value and weird hardcoded constant. Could you please 1) elaborate this change and 2) if you still think it's correct, and if you still tihnk(!)

The rest have drawing issue with DIB. See bug 5886. The sound applications have the same issue with revision 50933+ (region unassociated with the DC owner), except CoolPlayer and winamp 0.98d. There is also an issue with vbrun60spX too. I'm not sure how to move on and start compressed bitmaps. Thanks, James

Hmm... I remember I added it to enable the possibility for backtraces in 1st stage for sysreg. Why does it now cause the opposite? And why is there an inconsistency? In 2nd stage there is an option for debug mode, in 1st stage there is none, so using kdserial (which imo is appropriate way to do it, I always select it) as default is as consistent as using "normal" debug, getting the input from the keyboard driver.

As i cannot log into IRC (via webchat.freenode.net, i cant even reach the page, i dont know why), let me post this in ML The think is, i have installed RealTek´s official driver for the NIC, and hardware is recognized... but, dhcp dont get any IP... any idea? log is attached btw, in the log there are many errors ("xxxx failed") about ndis.......

Heap corruption detector is ready
by Aleksey Bragin 25 Feb '11

25 Feb '11

Hi all, I finished implementing main features of a special mechanism for monitoring uesrmode heap allocations in ReactOS. This mechanism is called Debug Page Heap, after the very similar mechanism present in recent versions of Microsoft Windows NT. Explaining the heap manager, the "usual" heap allocator (the one I also developed earlier) also contains a heap corruption detector, but it works post-factum, only after the respective block is freed its patterns are checked (if such heap flags are specified) and if they are damaged the block is reported. This makes debugging problematic, because a lot of code is executed between the moment the corruption occured and moment when the corrupted block is freed. Also it may be so that block's patterns are untouched, but internal heap structures are damaged. The usual heap allocator won't be able to catch this, but will crash with undetermined exception. Debug page heap (DPH) comes to solve this problem. Simply speaking it guards every block with a no-access page either after or before the block, so that when a badly written app wants to write beyond the allowed area, an exception occurs showing exactly the faulty instruction. Not so simply speaking, it's a rather complicated debugging tool with abilities to catch access-after-free cases also when they happen, and do some other nice tricks too. If you want to read more about it, look for "debug page heap" in MSDN and also visit URLs specified as references in rtl/heappage.c. How to use it? The best way is to use Microsoft's utility gflags.exe which is part of the Debugging package of WDK. To make long things short, just copy gflags.exe to C:\ReactOS\system32, boot your ReactOS installation, fire up cmd prompt and type: gflags /p /enable name.exe /full Now, when you run your app called name.exe, it will use the DPH heap allocator. Detailed information about gflags.exe could be found here: http:// msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff549557%28VS.85%29.aspx Also, I suggest looking in MSDN for page heap explanation (I provided some references in heappage.c too). Have fun! Aleksey.

ReactOS Urgent Meeting
by Colin Finck 23 Feb '11

23 Feb '11

ReactOS Urgent Meeting Preamble ========= The following people which are generally considered as ReactOS-related people have called for an urgent project meeting. They agree with the meeting agenda and the rules for this meeting: * Giannis Adamopoulos * Johannes Anderwald * Maciej Białas * Aleksey Bragin * Colin Finck * Ziliang Guo * Kamil Hornicek * Amine Khaldi * Timo Kreuzer * Victor Martinez * Roel Messiant * Sylvain Petreolle * Pierre Schweitzer * Olaf Siejka * James Tabor * Art Yerkes As we have not established any general rules for meetings yet, we consider these demands enough to justify the need for such an urgent meeting. Based on the experiences Colin has from formal ReactOS Deutschland e.V. foundation meetings, we need at least a discussion leader and a minute taker to get an organized meeting done over IRC. General Information ==================== * Date and Time: Tuesday, 22nd February, 2011 - 20:00 UTC * Place: #reactos-meeting on Freenode * Meeting leader: Colin Finck * Minute taker: Amine Khaldi * Allowed Participants The following people are allowed to participate in the discussion on that channel. This list is taken from the people which were recently active on the #reactos-dev IRC channel. Others are not included as they don’t have a chance to know about the recent developments. If you consider yourself a ReactOS-related person, you may still ask Colin Finck to put you on this list. Apart from this, everybody may join as an observer. o Giannis Adamopoulos (smiley1_) o Johannes Anderwald (janderwald) o Maciej Białas (niski) o Aleksey Bragin (abragin) o Colin Finck (Colin_Finck) o Danny Götte (dangerground) o Ziliang Guo (ZWabbit) o Amine Khaldi (AmineKhaldi) o Timo Kreuzer (rosdude) o Matthias Kupfer (Collibri) o Victor Martinez (vicmarcal) o Roel Messiant (Mephisto) o Ged Murphy (GedMurphy) o Sylvain Petreolle (Usurp) o Daniel Reimer (dreimer) o Pierre Schweitzer (HeisSpiter) o Samuel Serapion (encoded) o Olaf Siejka (Caemyr) o James Tabor (jimtabor) o Art Yerkes (arty) Meeting Agenda =============== 1. Agree on a preliminary definition for the term "ReactOS Team Member". To create a basis for the next regular meeting, we need to know who may participate and who may not. As we need to focus on the release right now, this definition should only be preliminary and is subject to change in a future meeting. Some participants will present proposals for such a definition. 2. Establish regular meetings every month. This is the only chance to ensure discussions among a broad range of ReactOS Team members with binding decisions. These meetings should follow the rules of typical meetings, including meeting leaders and minute takers. In contrast to this meeting, all team members should be able to participate. Minutes should also be published on the website. Such regular meetings should begin after CLT2011 (after 20th March) due to the time it takes to prepare this event. 3. Set up binding 0.3.13 Release Plans. The CLT2011 event is a big PR chance for a new ReactOS release, so we should look forward to get a release ready by then. This point includes: 1. Getting information about the most annoying bugs and regressions. Victor Martinez and Olaf Siejka will report on this. 2. Building teams to care about each bug. As soon as a bug is fixed, a team has to report back about this to one of the release engineers. They will then add you to another team. Of course, you may also suggest stuff you want to work on afterwards. 3. Setting deadlines for the bugs. We need to determine what bugs can be realistically fixed in the given time. If a bug is not fixed by then, the appropriate team has to report back about this to one of the release engineers. They are then responsible for finding a solution. We believe that other topics, especially the ones discussed in the "ReactOS Reaction" document should be covered in the first regular meeting, so that we can focus on 0.3.13 right now.

Re: [ros-dev] [ros-diffs] [pschweitzer] 50867: [KERNEL32] Don't make GetBinaryTypeA() rely on Wine's strings conversions functions
by Aleksey Bragin 23 Feb '11

23 Feb '11

This commit sounds like FilenameA2W is some evil we should get rid of as soon as possible, otherwise it takes over the world. In fact, FilenameA2W is the same stuff which you just unwrapped, so instead of 1 line, there are 20 lines now. The only thing would be setting correct LastError, but for some reason I think Wine did it right too (they have tests). In my opinion, it makes sense to either rewrite the buggy code (buggy being really buggy or questionable origin, if code comes from Wine it doesn't automatically mean it's buggy), or let the shared code be shared and just update it from the latest Wine. WBR, Aleksey Bragin.

by Pierre Schweitzer 21 Feb '11

Hi, this debug wasn't supposed to be silent as it highlights a quite crappy situation in ReactOS. And that's even what one would call: "a hack". That way, you could also silence IopParseDevice hack debug... At least, you could have asked the author, I'm not that unreachable ;-). Regards, P. Schweitzer

CallOneParam? 0x10? sometimes 0x20

21 Feb '11

I noticed this everywhere, (subsystems/win32/win32k/objects/gdiobj.c:249) GDIOBJ_LockObj: Attempted to lock object 0x10064, wrong reuse counter (Handle: 0x0, Entry: 0x8) (subsystems/win32/win32k/objects/dclife.c:726) Could not lock source DC 00010064 (subsystems/win32/win32k/ntuser/simplecall.c:349) Calling invalid routine number 0x10 in NtUserCallOneParam(), Param=0x31 CallOneParam? Looks like a stack issue.

Releasing
by Aleksey Bragin 15 Feb '11

15 Feb '11

Hi, recently amount of new features added to the trunk decreased, and there were quite a lot of bugfixes coming in. In my opinion, it is a very good time for a release. After release is branched, it would be possible to sync wine shared code and continue with other changes. If there are no objections, let's start the work right away. Testers being the first team working, and Colin - when/if you have time for this release? WBR, Aleksey Bragin.
