28.2; `x-focus-frame' causes spurious input events causes edebug not showing intermediate results |
|
Date: |
Sat, 14 Jan 2023 22:55:15 +0100 |
This is Emacs 28.2 from the Debian emacs-lucid package running on fvwm3
on Xorg. I guess that either the lucid toolkit or fvwm3 is part of the
problem here, since I cannot reproduce this on a gtk3 Emacs.
To demonstrate the problem:
emacs -Q
M-x find-function fundamental-mode RET
C-u C-M-x ; instrument function
C-x 4 b *Messages* RET ; show message buffer
C-x o
M-x fundamental-mode RET ; call function
Then step through function `fundamental-mode' in edebug using SPC.
While doing so I do not get the intermediate evaluation results
displayed, but rather only the message "Stop". My message buffer looks
like this after stepping through the function:
fundamental-mode
Stop
Result: nil
Stop
Stop
Result: nil
Stop
Meaning: These permanent "Stop" messages hide the intermediate
results. I haven't found much information on this on the net,
only the following thread on gnu.emacs.help:
https://groups.google.com/g/gnu.emacs.help/c/ojSN-PgNvxg
The cause seems to be the call to function `x-focus-frame' in
function `edebug--display-1':
(if (not (memq (framep (selected-frame)) '(nil t pc)))
(x-focus-frame (selected-frame)))
When I instrument that snippet to
(when (not (memq (framep (selected-frame)) '(nil t pc)))
(message "input-pending-pre: %S" (input-pending-p))
(x-focus-frame (selected-frame))
(message "input-pending-pst: %S" (input-pending-p)))
my message buffer looks like this instead:
fundamental-mode
input-pending-pre: t
input-pending-pst: t
Stop
input-pending-pre: nil
input-pending-pst: t
Result: nil
Stop
input-pending-pre: nil
input-pending-pst: t
Stop
input-pending-pre: nil
input-pending-pst: t
Result: nil
Stop
That spurious pending input caused by `x-focus-frame' triggers
the following snippet later in function `edebug--display-1':
(when (input-pending-p)
(setq edebug-stop t)
(setq edebug-execution-mode 'step) ; for `edebug-overlay-arrow'
(edebug-stop))
which causes the "Stop" messages.
The following hack works around the problem, at least most of the time,
as the exact behavior also seems to depend on timing:
(define-advice x-focus-frame (:after (&rest _dummy) emacs-fix)
"Discards any spurious input to avoid stop events in edebug."
(let ((backtrace-frame (backtrace-frame 1 'x-focus-frame)))
(when (and (listp backtrace-frame)
(eq (nth 1 backtrace-frame) 'edebug--display-1))
;; a little sleep seems to make work-around safer
(sleep-for 0 50)
(discard-input))))
If you cannot reproduce (which is rather likely) pls let me know what I
should do to follow up on this.

I'm afraid I don't know what change fixed this, and the problem
doesn't reproduce in my configuration, so I have difficulty trying
this out in different versions to try to answer that question.
So I'll just close the bug. Thanks for testing the current codebase.
