fix(windows): closing panes sometimes freezes wezterm

Open FrancescElies opened this issue 1 year ago • 33 comments

Based on #5977

Problem

On windows closing panes sometimes hangs wezterm.

These problem is related with how conpty.dll is being used this has been discussed in https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/discussions/17716

The problem seems to be mentioned in the docs at creating-a-pseudoconsole-session#ending-the-pseudoconsole-session

image

This pr

Hopefully will close #5882, could it help with related issues too #5496 #5432?

This pr manually closes handles before closing pseudoconsole to avoid that call from blocking.

Tasks

  • [x] #5940 --> rename
  • [x] #5977 --> read from output pipe before closing
  • [ ] upgrade conpty.dll Not strictly necessary to solve this issue in. Here leonard added instructions with the necessary steps to do that upgrade.

@RasmusN could you give a try to wezterm in this PR and see if helps with the problem where closing panes hang, I will be testing this over the coming week.

@RasmusN pr updated

FrancescElies avatar Aug 19 '24 06:08 FrancescElies

@RasmusN did you have any issues with this build, so far using this pr today wezterm didn't hang for me anymore.

@RasmusN did you have any issues with this build, so far using this pr today wezterm didn't hang for me anymore.

I wasn't able to build it on my computer. I'm getting the following error:

error: failed to run custom build command for `openssl-sys v0.9.103`
Caused by:
  process didn't exit successfully: `C:\Users\RasmusN\projects\wezterm\target\release\build\openssl-sys-36e52e0845de18a8\build-script-main` (exit code: 101)

Which has most likely nothing to do with your changes. However, I'll dig deeper into it tonight, looks like some perl library missing.

@RasmusN getting wezterm to build was a pain for me because of perl, but that issue should be gone with the latest release, did you install perl? Could you share a bit more of your error, that line doesn’t say much, you can share really long traces with a collapsible markdown block :)

RasmusN avatar Aug 19 '24 15:08 RasmusN

I was able to build it and have not experienced another hang. Before it would hang pretty consistently when the panes had some processes running. Thanks!

It seems to be an unicode issue (like its 1998) with the path name C:\Users\RasmusNordström\...

@RasmusN being on a non US/UK setup is never fun, lately I faced https://github.com/StrawberryPerl/Perl-Dist-Strawberry/issues/135 which is now solved, that kept me from building wezterm for a while.

Colleagues with special characters faced also this one https://github.com/fastapi/typer/pull/277.

Now again ö getting on the way with a build depending on perl.

If you can rename your user and feel fine make an aberration with your last name, just rename your username ö -> o or oe.

If you can't, try at least to move your projects folder to another location C:/Users/RasmusNordström/projects/ --> C:/projects/ and see if that helps,

In short, if it's not to risky to rename your user, do that; that will save you trouble for the future.

Thank mostly @lhecker for this one, he basically spotted where the problem was and told me exactly what to do about it.

FrancescElies avatar Aug 21 '24 05:08 FrancescElies

👋 @wez & @Cammisuli I hope you don't find my @ to you impolite, probably you are quite busy or this PR might have gone unnoticed under your radar.

PR summary

When closing wezterm panes on windows it's quite common to see wezterm hanging indefinitely.

After this pr wezterm will not freeze when closing panes on windows, the solution was proposed by @lhecker, one of the main contributors to https://github.com/microsoft/terminal where conpty code lives.

@clemenscodes and me can confirm that we don't see wezterm freeze anymore.

Given the above I think this PR is ready for you to have a look when you have time.

In short, if it's not to risky to rename your user, do that; that will save you trouble for the future.

Sorry for late reply. I'm using a computer from work so I'm not able to change username. I was able to move it there with an admin account but then I realized I would have to reinstall cargo, VS C++ dev kit, etc on the admin account...

Anyway, great job with both finding the bug and providing a solution @FrancescElies! Hopefully this will be merged as soon as possible. I'm starting to get a bit tired of submitting a tiny prayer before closing a pane/tab.

RasmusN avatar Aug 26 '24 11:08 RasmusN

@RasmusN we use windows at work too.

. I'm starting to get a bit tired of submitting a tiny prayer before closing a pane/tab.

I feel your pain, if it wouldn't be because there is no viable alternative to wezterm, something with tmux like capabilities that works crossplatform across the the big three windows, linux & macos I would have probably moved on to something else.

In the meanwhile until I ge approval to run on ci this pr you can download it from ci in my fork, see here at the bottom of the page you have an installer, could you give it a try?

Awesome, thanks! Will try it out and get back to you.

RasmusN avatar Aug 27 '24 07:08 RasmusN

I've used it the whole day, not a single freeze so far.

RasmusN avatar Aug 27 '24 19:08 RasmusN

Thanks for this!

While I'm not opposed to some low level poking, if this is fixed with an updated conpty.dll, I think I'd rather just update that dll and avoid this complexity, and also avoid having to later remember to resolve this properly.

Last time conpty was updated was in e7fe7c07da2da071d75c88ff3ae7a3c0e74d4f1f using pre-built binaries that @dhowett published. I'd like to grab a newer version of those and update, but I'm not sure how best to locate the current version if any has been updated since we conducted the initial experiment with this!

wez avatar Sep 14 '24 18:09 wez

I understand, i would gladly try to upgrade conpty myself but I won’t be able to do that until April next year.

FrancescElies avatar Sep 14 '24 21:09 FrancescElies

I've used this branch for two months now, and did not experience a single crash. Thanks for making this fix @FrancescElies so we have a crash free wezterm experience on windows.

Same here, working flawlessly. This has been a huge value for me, I hope more people find this PR.

RasmusN avatar Nov 24 '24 17:11 RasmusN

I hope that Wez creates an org for Wezterm or something and finds more maintainers. Excellent prs have been stuck there for ages..

39555 avatar Nov 24 '24 17:11 39555

Commenting to bump this PR. Wezterm hangs are the only reason I'm not using it on Windows.

ETA: To clarify, this is a gentle bump just to make sure the PR stays active, not a discontented user demanding a PR get merged asap. Happy holidays :)

I wish I'd seen this before 😢 (8 opened tabs in an highly focused session) image

melMass avatar Jan 25 '25 13:01 melMass

Are there any updates on this please. For me it is still freezes randomly!

indranildeveloper avatar Feb 09 '25 16:02 indranildeveloper

@FrancescElies I updated conpty yesterday. Can you rebase and review this PR to see if we need any of the hacky parts now? Thank you!

wez avatar Feb 09 '25 16:02 wez

Great ! I've been having some random issues here and there with wezterm hanging, it was never annoying enough to switch to this PR but I kept it in mind and saved my work often ; I remember reading this thread months ago, when it was still being investigated.

Really funny that my wezterm crashed a couple hours after wez posted this message, it knows it won't be able to crash out for long and is trying to go out with a flame 😆

Despite the (understandable, it's open source ! ) delays, thanks for the great work with WezTerm. I love the cross-compatibility, and the simplicity of lua is hard to go back from :)

@wez i will have a look into it in April, best wishes.

FrancescElies avatar Feb 10 '25 08:02 FrancescElies

I am still dealing with this freezing issue after closing tabs in certain cases! Hope this fix gets merged soon.

@RasmusN just fyi -- I installed the latest nightly build, and now I no longer get the crashes.
