* test/src/process-tests.el (process-tests/multiple-threads-waiting):
Also check that 'thread-join' and 'thread-last-error' return the
expected errors.
This unit test tests that we can call 'accept-process-output' in
parallel from multiple threads.
* test/src/process-tests.el (process-tests/multiple-threads-waiting):
New unit test.
That way, the tests only depend on Emacs, and not on utilities that
might not be available during test time.
* test/src/process-tests.el (process-tests--eval)
(process-tests--emacs-command, process-tests--emacs-binary)
(process-tests--dump-file)
(process-tests--usable-file-for-reinvoke): New helper functions.
(process-tests/sentinel-called)
(process-tests/sentinel-with-multiple-processes): Use them.
When we're trying to notify a process about a status change, we need
to ignore the SIGCHLD pipe temporarily, otherwise the code would
likely not run into the timeout case that's necessary for a status
change to happen.
* src/process.c (wait_reading_process_output): Ignore the SIGCHLD pipe
when notifying a process about a status change.
* test/src/process-tests.el (process-tests/sentinel-called)
(process-tests/sentinel-with-multiple-processes): New unit tests.
If we receive and handle a SIGCHLD signal for a process while waiting
for that process, 'pselect' might never return. Instead, we have to
explicitly 'pselect' that the process status has changed. We do this
by writing to a pipe in the SIGCHLD handler and having
'wait_reading_process_output' select on it.
* src/process.c (child_signal_init): New helper function to create a
pipe for SIGCHLD notifications.
(child_signal_read, child_signal_notify): New helper functions to
read from/write to the child signal pipe.
(create_process): Initialize the child signal pipe on first use.
(handle_child_signal): Notify waiters that a process status has
changed.
(wait_reading_process_output): Make sure that we also catch
SIGCHLD/process status changes.
* test/src/process-tests.el
(process-tests/fd-setsize-no-crash/make-process): Remove workaround,
which is no longer needed.
First, scan to find the first non-whitespace character and then
backtrack to find the beginning of the line. The previous
algorithm always started on the non-whitespace character during
the backtrack, causing it to stop immediately and not actually
find the beginning of the line. The same applies to the end of
line calculation.
* src/xdisp.c: (Fwindow_text_pixel_size): Fix off by one error.
(Bug#45748)
* test/src/xdisp-tests.el (xdisp-tests--window-text-pixel-size)
(xdisp-tests--window-text-pixel-size-leading-space)
(xdisp-tests--window-text-pixel-size-trailing-space): New tests.
* test/src/process-tests.el (ipv6-is-available): New function for
checking whether we have a globally routable IPv6 prefix assigned.
(lookup-family-specification): Use 'ipv6-is-available' to check for
IPv6. Use 'localhost' instead of 'google.com' to test
'network-lookup-address-info' API.
(lookup-google): Use 'ipv6-is-available' to check for
IPv6.
* test/lisp/net/nsm-tests.el (nsm-ipv6-is-available): Rename to
'ipv6-is-available', make identical to the one in
test/src/process-tests.el.
Be consistent when pretty-printing keys: put modifiers outside <>,
thus the more logical C-M-<return> instead of <C-M-return>.
* src/keymap.c (Fsingle_key_description):
Skip modifier prefix before adding <>.
* doc/lispref/help.texi (Describing Characters): Update example.
* doc/lispref/debugging.texi (Backtraces):
* doc/lispref/minibuf.texi (Text from Minibuffer):
Use @kbd instead of @key.
* etc/NEWS: Announce the change.
* test/src/keymap-tests.el (keymap--key-description):
* test/lisp/subr-tests.el (subr--kbd): New tests.
The test 'process-tests/fd-setsize-no-crash/make-process' used to call
'sleep' to ensure that enough processes are live to trigger a
FD_SETSIZE overflow. However, we can just call 'cat' instead and
close standard input when done. That way, we only wait as long as
needed.
* process-tests.el
(process-tests/fd-setsize-no-crash/make-process): Invoke 'cat' instead
of 'sleep'. Close standard input to exit the 'cat' processes.
The 'process-tty-name' already provides the TTY name, we don't have
interrogate the TTY host.
* test/src/process-tests.el
(process-tests/fd-setsize-no-crash/make-serial-process): Use
'process-tty-name' instead of having the TTY host print its TTY
name. Check whether TTY names are unique.
(process-tests--new-pty, process-tests--with-temp-file): Remove;
no longer used.
This works even if another thread or process resets the resource limit
for open file descriptors, e.g., using 'prlimit' on GNU/Linux.
* src/process.c (create_process, create_pty, Fmake_pipe_process)
(Fmake_serial_process, connect_network_socket)
(server_accept_connection): Limit file descriptors to FD_SETSIZE.
* test/src/process-tests.el (process-tests--with-raised-rlimit): New
helper macro.
(process-tests--fd-setsize-test): Rename from
'process-tests--with-many-pipes'. Increase resource limit during test
if possible.
(process-tests/fd-setsize-no-crash/make-process)
(process-tests/fd-setsize-no-crash/make-pipe-process)
(process-tests/fd-setsize-no-crash/make-network-process)
(process-tests--new-pty): Rename callers.
* test/src/process-tests.el
(process-tests/fd-setsize-no-crash/make-process): Allow special exit
codes that can happen if terminal setup fails in the child process.
Instead of trying to generate the right number of processes,
pre-create lots of unused pipe processes until creation fails. Extend
the tests to the 'pty' connection type and other kinds of process
objects.
* test/src/process-tests.el (process-tests--ignore-EMFILE)
(process-tests--with-buffers, process-tests--with-processes)
(process-tests--with-many-pipes, process-tests--with-temp-file)
(process-tests--with-temp-directory): New helper macros.
(process-tests/fd-setsize-no-crash/make-process): Renamed from
'process-tests/fd-setsize-no-crash'. Fail on timeout. Also test the
'pty' connection type. Pre-create lots of pipe processes so we reach
the FD_SETSIZE limit faster. Ignore EMFILE more precisely, if
possible.
(process-tests/fd-setsize-no-crash/make-pipe-process)
(process-tests/fd-setsize-no-crash/make-network-process)
(process-tests/fd-setsize-no-crash/make-serial-process): New tests
that test FD_SETSIZE limits for other kinds of processes.
(process-tests--EMFILE-message): New helper function and cache
variable.
(process-tests--new-pty): New helper function.
* src/w32.c (pipe2): When forcibly closing pipe handles due to
overflow of FD_SETSIZE, set the handles to -1, to avoid assertion
violations in emacs_close.
* test/src/process-tests.el (process-tests/fd-setsize-no-crash):
No need to skip this test anymore.
* test/src/process-tests.el (process-tests/fd-setsize-no-crash):
Skip this test on windows-nt systems, as we cannot use more than
FD_SETSIZE file descriptors there: if we try, we crash.

Such filenames are dangerous, as Emacs would silently only use the
part up to the first NUL byte. Reject them explicitly instead.

NUL byte.

test.

This runs insignificantly faster in C, and is already fast enough on
reasonably modern hardware. We might as well lift it to Lisp.
This benchmark can be used to verify:

When creating multibyte or unibyte strings, we should guarantee the
following invariants:
- When creating empty strings, a NULL data pointer should be allowed.
This often arises in practice if the string length isn't known in
advance, and we don't want to unnecessarily trigger undefined
behavior. Since functions like memcpy might not accept NULL
pointers, use the canonical empty string objects in this case.
- Nonzero strings should be guaranteed to be unique and mutable.
These are the same guarantees expected from Lisp functions such as
'make-string' or 'unibyte-string'. On the other hand, empty strings
might not be unique.
* src/emacs-module.c (module_make_string)
(module_make_unibyte_string): Correctly handle empty strings.

corner cases for strings.
* test/src/casefiddle-tests.el (casefiddle-tests-char-casing):
(upcase ?ß) now returns ?ẞ (U+7838), partly for technical reasons but
the previous behaviour was arbitrary and arguably less useful.
Correct upcasing of ß is normally SS, which is what Fupcase returns if
given a string, or (for special purposes) ẞ.
ß was incorrectly treated as a caseless character and thus not matched
by the regexp [[:lower:]] (or, in case-folding mode, [[:upper:]]).
The reason is that the upcase table maps it to itself, which can be
remedied by mapping it to ẞ (U+7838) instead. Doing so does not
affect upcasing since the special-uppercase property maps it to SS.
* lisp/international/characters.el (tbl): Map ß to ẞ in the upcase
table.
* test/src/regex-emacs-tests.el (regexp-eszett): Uncomment previously
failing tests. Add checks to make sure that case transformations
remain valid.
* src/regex-emacs.c (execute_charset): Add canon_table argument to
allow expression of a correct predicate for [:upper:] and [:lower:].
(mutually_exclusive_p, re_match_2_internal): Pass extra argument.

* etc/NEWS: Document change.
We used to store module runtime and environment pointers in the static
lists Vmodule_runtimes and Vmodule_environments. However, this is
incorrect because these objects have to be kept per-thread. With this
naive approach, interleaving module function calls in separate threads
leads to environments being removed in the wrong order, which in turn
can cause local module values to be incorrectly garbage-collected.
The fix isn't completely trivial: specbinding the lists wouldn't work
either, because then the garbage collector wouldn't find the
environments in other threads than the current ones, again leading to
objects being garbage-collected incorrectly. While introducing custom
pseudovector types would fix this, it's simpler to put the runtime and
environment pointers into the specbinding list as new specbinding
kinds. This works since we need to unwind them anyway, and we only
ever treat the lists as a stack. The thread switching machinery
ensures that the specbinding lists are thread-local, and that all
elements of the specbinding lists in all threads are marked during
garbage collection.
Module assertions now have to walk the specbinding list for the
current thread, which is more correct since they now only find
environments for the current thread. As a result, we can now remove
the faulty Vmodule_runtimes and Vmodule_environments variables
entirely.
Also add a unit test that exemplifies the problem. It interleaves two
module calls in two threads so that the first call ends while the
second one is still active. Without this change, this test triggers
an assertion failure.
* src/lisp.h (enum specbind_tag): Add new tags for module runtimes and
environments.
* src/eval.c (record_unwind_protect_module): New function to record a
module object in the specpdl list.

(Fbacktrace__locals): Deal with new specbinding types.

* src/alloc.c (garbage_collect): Remove call to 'mark-modules'.
Garbage collection of module values is now handled as part of marking
the specpdl of each thread.
* src/emacs-module.c (Fmodule_load, funcall_module): Use specpdl to
record module runtimes and environments.
(module_assert_runtime, module_assert_env, value_to_lisp): Walk
through specpdl list instead of list variables.
(mark_module_environment): Rename from 'mark_modules'. Don't attempt
to walk though current thread's environments only, since that would
miss other threads.
(initialize_environment, finalize_environment): Don't change
Vmodule_environments variable; environments are now in the specpdl
list.
(finalize_environment_unwind, finalize_runtime_unwind): Make 'extern'
since do_one_unbind now calls them.
(finalize_runtime_unwind): Don't change Vmodule_runtimes variable;
runtimes are now in the specpdl list.
(syms_of_module): Remove Vmodule_runtimes and Vmodule_environments.
