If the owning reader is closing, wait for another reader (if there is
one) to take ownership before closing the owner's pipe handles.
To synchronize the ownership transfer, add events owner_needed_evt and
owner_found_evt, and add methods owner_needed and owner_found to
set/reset them.
Modify the fifo_reader_thread function to wake up all non-owners when
a new owner is needed.
Make a cosmetic change in close so that fhandler_base::close is called
only if we have a write handle. This prevents strace output from
being littered with statements that the null handle is being closed.
If fixup_after_exec is called on a non-close-on-exec reader whose
parent is the owner, transfer ownership to the child. Otherwise the
parent's pipe handles will be closed before any other reader can
duplicate them.
To help with this, make the cancel_evt and thr_sync_evt handles
inheritable, so that the child can terminate the parent's
fifo_reader_thread (and the parent will update the shared fc_handler
list).
Add an optional argument 'from_exec' to update_my_handlers to simplify
its use in this case; no handle duplication is required.
This is in a new shared memory section. We will use it for temporary
storage of the owner's fc_handler list when we need to change owner.
The new owner can then duplicate the pipe handles from that list
before taking ownership.
Add several shared data members and methods that are needed for the
duplication process
Add methods update_my_handlers and update_shared_handlers that carry
out the duplication.
Allow the shared list to grow dynamically, up to a point. Do this by
initially reserving a block of memory (currently 100 pages) and only
committing pages as needed.
Add methods create_shared_fc_handler, reopen_shared_fc_handler, and
remap_shared_fc_handler to create the new shared memory section,
reopen it, and commit new pages. The first is called in open, the
second is called in dup/fork/exec, and the third is called in
update_shared_handlers if more shared memory is needed.
Modify the fifo_reader_thread function to call update_my_handlers when
it finds that there is no owner. Also make it call
update_shared_handlers when the owner's thread terminates, so that the
new owner will have an accurate shared fc_handler list from which to
duplicate.
For convenience, add new methods cleanup_handlers and
close_all_handlers. And add an optional arg to add_client_handler
that allows it to create a new fifo_client_handler without creating a
new pipe instance.
Make fc_handler a pointer to malloc'd memory instead of a fixed-size
array. The size is now a new data member 'shandlers'. Call realloc
in add_client_handler if we need to grow the array.
free fc_handler in close. As long as we're touching that code, also
remove an unneeded lock.
Among all the open readers of a FIFO, one is declared to be the owner.
This is the only reader that listens for client connections, and it is
the only one that has an accurate fc_handler list.
Add shared data and methods for getting and setting the owner, as well
as a lock to prevent more than one reader from accessing these data
simultaneously.
Modify the fifo_reader_thread so that it checks the owner at the
beginning of its loop. If there is no owner, it takes ownership. If
there is an owner but it is a different reader, the thread just waits
to be canceled. Otherwise, it listens for client connections as
before.
Remove the 'first' argument from create_pipe_instance. It is not
needed, and it may be confusing in the future since only the owner
knows whether a pipe instance is the first.
When opening a reader, don't return until the fifo_reader_thread has
time to set an owner.
If the owner closes, indicate that there is no longer an owner.
Clear the child's fc_handler list in dup, and don't bother duplicating
the handles. The child never starts out as owner, so it can't use
those handles.
Do the same thing in fixup_after_fork in the close-on-exec case. In
the non-close-on-exec case, the child inherits an fc_handler list that
it can't use, but we can just leave it alone; the handles will be
closed when the child is closed.
This uniquely identifies an fhandler_fifo open for reading in any
process.
Add a new data member 'me' of this type, which is set in open, dup,
fork, and exec.
Add data and methods to the shared memory that keep track of the
number of open readers.
Increment this number in open, dup, fork, and exec. Decrement it in
close. Reset read_ready if there are no readers left.
Even though we currently allow a FIFO to be opened for reading only
once, we can still have more than one reader open because of dup and
fork. Add a named shared memory section accessible to all readers of
a given FIFO. In future commits we will add information needed by all
readers to this section
Add a class fifo_shmem_t that lets us access this information.
Add a method create_shmem that is called when a reader opens, and add
a method reopen_shmem that is called by dup, fork, and exec. (Each
new reader needs its own view of the shared memory.)
This will simplify future work.
Rename the thread from "listen_client_thread" to "fifo_reader_thread"
because it will be used for more than just listening.
Remove the fixup_before stuff, which won't be needed after future
changes to fixup_after_fork and fixup_after_exec.
- Make read_ready a manual-reset event.
- Signal read_ready in open instead of in the listen_client_thread.
- Don't reset read_ready when the listen_client thread terminates;
instead do it in close().
- Rearrange open and change its error handling.
- Add a wait_open_pipe method that waits for a pipe instance to be
available and then calls open_pipe. Use it when opening a writer if
we can't connect immediately. This can happen if the system is
heavily loaded and/or if many writers are trying to open
simultaneously.
According to Posix, a FIFO open for reading is at EOF if it is empty
and there are no writers open.
The only way to test this is to poll the fifo_client_handlers as in
raw_read and select.cc:peek_fifo. The current hit_eof instead relies
on the value of nconnected, which can be out of date. On the one
hand, it doesn't take into account writers that were connected but
have since closed. On the other hand, it doesn't take into account
writers that are in the process of opening but haven't yet connected.
Fix this by introducing a maybe_eof method that tentatively assumes
EOF if there are no connected writers after polling. Then check for
writers currently opening (via a new 'writer_opening' event), and wait
for the fifo_reader_thread to record any new connection that was made
while we were polling.
To handle the needs of peek_fifo, replace the get_fc_handle method
by a get_fc_handler method, and add a fifo_client_handler::get_state
method.
Remove the is_connected method, which was used only in peek_fifo and
is no longer needed.
Remove the nconnected data member, which was used only for the flawed
hit_eof.
Add some comments about events to fhandler.h.
Always return 0; no one is doing anything with the return value
anyway.
Remove the return value from stop_listen_client.
Make the connection event auto-reset, so that we don't have to reset
it later.
Simplify the process of connecting a bogus client when thread
termination is signaled.
Make some failures fatal.
Remove the unnecessary extra check for thread termination near the end
of listen_client_thread.
Make the values correspond to the possible return values of
fifo_client_handler::pipe_state().
When cleaning up the fc_handler list in listen_client_thread(), don't
delete handlers in the fc_closing state. I think the pipe might still
have input to be read in that case.
Set the state to fc_closing later in the same function if a connection
is made and the status returned by NtFsControlFile is
STATUS_PIPE_CLOSING.
In raw_read, don't error out if NtReadFile returns an unexpected
status; just set the state of that handler to fc_error. One writer in
a bad state doesn't justify giving up on reading.
Replace the 'fhandler_base *' member by a HANDLE to the server side of
the Windows named pipe instance. Make the corresponding
simplifications throughout.
When `cygwin-console-helper.exe` is either missing, or corresponds to a
different Cygwin runtime, we currently wait forever while setting up
access to the pseudo console, even long after the process is gone that
was supposed to signal that it set up access to the pseudo console.
Let's handle that more gracefully: if the process exited without
signaling, we cannot use the pseudo console. In that case, let's just
fall back to not using it.

The cast to generate the return value uses a DWORD variable
as test and set value. The error case is the constant -1.
Given the type of the other half of the conditioal expression,
-1 is cast to DWORD as well.
On 64 bit, this results in the error case returning a 32 bit
-1 value which is equivalent to (ssize_t) 4294967295 rather
than (ssize_t) -1.
Add a fixing cast.

The implicit assumption seemed to be that any subsequent occurence of
the same setting in nsswitch.conf is supposed to rewrite the previous
ones completely. This was not the case if the third or any further
schema was previously defined and the last line defined less than that
(but at least 2), for example:
```
db_home: windows cygwin /myhome/%U
db_home: cygwin desc
```
Let's document this behavior as well.

If the cygdrive prefix is /, then the following happens right now:
$ ln -s /tmp/foo .
$ ls -l foo
lrwxrwxrwx 1 user group 12 Apr 15 23:44 foo -> /mnt/tmp/foo
Fix this by skipping cygdrive prefix conversion to WSL drive
prefix "/mnt", if the cygdrive prefix is just "/". There's no
satisfying way to do the right thing all the time in this case
anyway. For a description and the alternatives, see

PMEM_EXTENDED_PARAMETER is defined in the local winlean.h as long
as mingw-w64 doesn't define it (in winnt.h). ntdll.h needs the
definition for declaring NtMapViewOfSectionEx. cygpath.cc and ps.cc
both include ntdll.h but not winlean.h, so they complain about the

So far Cygwin was jumping through hoops to restrict memory
allocation to specific regions. With the advent of VirtualAlloc2
and MapViewOfFile3 (and it's NT counterpart NtMapViewOfSectionEx),
we can skip searching for free space in the specific regions
and just call these functions and let the OS do the job more
efficiently and less racy.
Use VirtualAlloc2 on W10 1803 and later in thread stack allocation.

Windows 10 1803 introduced an extended memory API allowing
to specify memory regions allocations are to be taken off.
In preparation of using this API, define the struct
MEM_EXTENDED_PARAMETER and friends. Declare and allow to
autoload the functions VirtualAlloc2 and NtMapViewOfSectionEx.
Introduce a wincap flag has_extended_mem_api.
