* Call setsid() for hook/notification commandsLukas Fleischer2021-04-041-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | We do not want hook or notification commands to interact with the terminal in any way. Create a new session for them. Addresses GitHub issue #326. Signed-off-by: Lukas Fleischer <lfleischer@calcurse.org>
* Redirect standard descriptors for hook/notify commandsLukas Fleischer2021-04-041-17/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Disconnect stdin, stdout and stderr when running an external hook or notification command. The previous solution of appending "<&- >&- 2>&-" to the shell command line does not work if the command includes pipes. Use shell_exec() in notify_launch_cmd() instead of a custom (and incomplete) reimplementation of that command. Partially addresses GitHub issue #326.

* Remove SIGCHLD signal handlerLars Henriksen2020-07-261-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The purpose is to make child_wait() reliable. The handler is meant for the notify main thread, but signal handlers are shared by all threads. In the calcurse main thread and the periodic save thread (hooks) the handler and child_wait() will compete (if the signal handler kicks in first, the waitpid() call in child_wait() will fail with errno ECHILD). All child processes in the main thread, the notify thread, the periodic save thread and the notify demon are explicitly waited for.

* Fix next recurrent appointment deletedLars Henriksen2019-12-231-1/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | If the notify bar displays a recurrent appointment after midnight as next upcoming appointment, the bar is not updated when the appointment/occurrence is deleted. The problem is not seen in 4.3.0 because of the bug described in commit 8cbd456, Fix next recurring appointment. The problem and the solution is the same, this time in the function notify_same_recur_item().

* Fix display of time left before next appointmentLars Henriksen2019-04-131-5/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the notify bar, the clock is shown in hours, minutes and seconds, whereas the time left to the next appointment is shown in hours and minutes only. When you read the clock in hours and minutes (discarding the seconds), you are mentally rounding down to the nearest minute. To agree with that reading, the time left (in seconds) should be (programmatically) rounded up to the nearest minute for display. In that way the time left is counted down whenever the minute "hand" of the clock "ticks", and reaches zero when the clock reaches the time of the next appointment, not one minute before. Also, the clock (in hours and minutes) and the time left always add up to the time of the next appointment.

* Solve deadlock in notification barLars Henriksen2018-07-281-8/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | calcurse deadlocks when 1) an upcoming appointment is on display in the notification bar, 2) an external command (like help) is started, 3) the time for the upcoming appointment arrives, and 4) the external command is exited. The notification bar thread is stopped while the external command is running. Upon exit from the external command, the n-bar thread is restarted and calcurse locks. The cause is the way in which the main notification bar thread is stopped: static pthread_t notify_t_main; void notify_stop_main_thread(void) { if (notify_t_main) { pthread_cancel(notify_t_main); pthread_join(notify_t_main, NULL); } } Objects of type pthread_t are opaque and should not be accessed directly. Initially notify_t_main is an uninitialised static variable (0), but later it has a value, which may or may not be the thread id of the notification main thread. Note that the thread id after exit of a thread may become the thread id of a new thread. Thus the variable set when the thread is created, is invalid after exit of the thread. Specifically, the first time notify_stop_main_thread() is called (by notify_start_main_thread() before the thread is created) is harmless (because notify_t_main is 0). Calling notify_stop_main_thread() later may be either OK because the main thread is running, or harmless because no thread with id notify_t_main is running: the two functions will fail with return value ESRCH (no such process), or fatal because an unrelated thread with this thread id is running: it will be cancelled, and the join may or may not succeed depending on whether the thread is joinable or detached. The "unrelated thread" could be the next-appointment thread, notify_thread_app, launched by notify_check_next_app(). Always calling notify_stop_main_thread() before starting the main thread becomes fatal when notify_check_next_app() is called shortly before notify_start_main_thread(). This is the case in the scenario described. The next-app-thread is then running when notify_stop_main_thread() is called, and apparently it has the thread id of the old main thread (confirmed by logging the return values from pthread_cancel() and pthread_join(); the first succeeds while the second fails with EINVALID which means that the thread is not joinable). The next-app-thread will therefore exit without unlocking mutexes. Ensure that notify_t_main, in case the notify main thread is not running, has a value that it will never have when it is running. A possibility is the thread id of the main() calcurse process (returned by pthread_self()). Check for this condition in notify_stop_main_thread() and set notify_t_main when the thread is stopped. Similar changes have been introduced for the periodic save thread and the calendar date thread.

* Scrollbar and right window border (corrected)Lars Henriksen2018-05-261-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a scrollbar is on display in APP or TOD windows, the right vertical border (outside the scrollbar) is not highlighted when the window is selected. The scrollbar is always highlighted: - when APP or TOD is deselected - in configuration windows where borders otherwise are not The patch moves the scrollbar parameters (except highlight) from arguments of draw_scrollbar() to the function itself. The highlight argument was 1; instead it is set higher in the call hierarchy (wins_update_panels()) and passed on down. Signed-off-by: Lukas Fleischer <lfleischer@calcurse.org>

* Avoid starting the notification thread twiceLukas Fleischer2016-08-241-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Starting the notification thread more than once can result in strange behavior. For example, when launching external commands, only the most recently started thread is stopped which results in the external command's screen output being overwritten by the notification bar. Currently, there are a couple of situations where the thread is started twice. As a first countermeasure, explicitly check whether the thread is already running (and terminate it) before starting a new one. Signed-off-by: Lukas Fleischer <lfleischer@calcurse.org>

* Rework scroll window implementationLukas Fleischer2014-05-181-15/+6
| | | | | | | | | | This complete rewrite of the scroll window implementation decouples scroll windows from every other window abstraction layer we use. Note that this leads to some code duplication.

* Add hidden key handler windowLukas Fleischer2012-12-161-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After BUG#6 had apparently been closed with the screen locks introduced in commit a80f8dcf2c6eb3b54658218bc081ee9694204dd5, some people still had problems with random characters appearing in the notification bar. This was obviously caused by wgetch() refreshing the screen if the status panel was changed. From wgetch(3): If the window is not a pad, and it has been moved or modified since the last call to wrefresh, wrefresh will be called before another character is read. Since the wgetch(3) isn't thread-safe, there were race conditions between the notification bar thread drawing to the notification bar and wgetch() updating the screen. Introduce a (hidden) window that handles all key presses and never gets changed in order to avoid this. Also, call wins_wrefresh() explicitly in status_mesg(), since we can no longer rely on wgetch() updating windows automatically. Fixes reopened BUG#6. Note that this is a hotfix -- FR#26 has been opened to ensure we fix this properly in the next major release. Signed-off-by: Lukas Fleischer <calcurse@cryptocrack.de>
* Release screen mutex if thread diesLukas Fleischer2012-11-231-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We did not setup a thread cleanup procedure which resulted in calcurse freezing if a thread tried to draw on the screen after another thread was canceled while locking the screen. Note that this kind of cleanup handlers should be added to other mutexes as well. This patch just removes the most common case of triggering a deadlock. Also note that we cannot move pthread_cleanup_push() and pthread_cleanup_pop() into the locking/unlocking functions since both pthread_cleanup_push() and pthread_cleanup_pop() may be implemented as macros that must be used in pairs within the same lexical scope.

* Lock screen when drawing on the calendar/notification panelLukas Fleischer2012-11-231-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | Lock the screen if either the calendar panel or the notification bar is updated to avoid race conditions. Addresses BUG#6.

* Replace localtime() with localtime_r()Lukas Fleischer2012-11-221-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the result of localtime() is stored in a statically allocated structure, data was overwritten when a context switch occurred during (or shortly after) the execution of localtime(), potentially resulting in critical data corruption. BUG#7 and BUG#8 are likely related. This patch converts all usages of localtime() with localtime_r(), which is thread-safe.

* Use mvwaddstr() instead of mvwprintw()Baptiste Jonglez2012-05-311-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When we only want to display a string at a specific place of the screen, there's no need to use the more complex mvwprintw(), use mvwaddstr() instead. This should be slightly more efficient, and, above all, it prevents weird things to happen if our string contains a '%', being interpreted as an unwanted format string.
