The submodule business becomes kind of annoying. I updated the documentation at
https://daq00.triumf.ca/MidasWiki/index.php/Quickstart_Linux#MIDAS_Package_Installatio
n
to tell people to use
1) "git clone ... --recurse-submodules" during the first clone
2) "git submodule update --init --recursive" in case they forgot 1)
3) "git pull --recurse-submodules" for each update or to use
4) "git config submodule.recurse true" to make the --recurse-submodules the default
I use 4) since a while and it works nicely, so one does not have to remember to pull
recursively each time.

Konstantin Olchanski | Info | Commit local TWIST modifications | I am commiting MIDAS modification accumulated during the last few months of running TWIST:
1) system.c::ss_shm_open() fail if trying to map a file that is smaller than we expect.
2) midas.c::bm_lock_buffer(), el_submit(), el_delete_message(): do not wait for mutexes forever, use a 5
minute timeout. If we can't get the lock, cm_msg()/abort().
The above helps dealing with complete midas freezes. I also have code to keep track of "who locked
the mutex *and* is still holding it?!?" but it is way too ugly to commit. I wish we had a "lockedByPid"
entry for all lockable objects.

Konstantin Olchanski | Info | Commit local TWIST modifications | > I am commiting MIDAS modification accumulated during the last few months of running TWIST:
More:
- mfe.c: in error messages "cannot find statistics record", also print
the name of the record we are looking for.
- mlogger.c: in warning message "Write operation took N ms", report the name
of the offending data stream.
- system.c: do not chdir("/") in ss_daemon_init()- it prevents us from ever
getting core dumps from midas daemons. The old behaviour is trivially
restored by "cd /" before starting the daemon; or by "limit coredumpsize 0".
- odb.c: db_validate_db() detect and break infinite looping on free list corruption.

The chdir("/") is from one of the unix text books. They say you HAVE to do it. If you start a
daemon on an NFS file system, you cannot unmount that file system as long as the daemon is
running. I'm sure the same code is inside most other daemons (apache, ...). So if we go away
from that standard, we have to be aware of the consequences. |

Stefan Ritt | Suggestion | Code formatting | May I ask for your quick opinion on code formatting. MIDAS had a coding style
which pretty much followed the ROOT coding style described at
https://root.cern/contribute/coding_conventions/
so we followed the "3 spaces indent" convention, braces according to Kernigham &
Ritchie and a few other things. I see however that code written by different
people still is formatted differently, like spaces before and after comparators
etc. I wonder if it would make sense to keep a consistent code formatting through
the whole midas repository.
Looking again at what the ROOT guys doe (see link above), they have a ClangFormat
file, which I attached to this post. Putting this file into the root of midas
ensures that all files are formatted in exactly the same way, which would increase
readability largely.
The nice thing with ClangFormat is that can be integrated into my editor (Clion) as
well as in emacs and vim:
https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangFormat.html
This would also make the emacs settings in our files obsolete:
/* emacs
* Local Variables:
* tab-width: 8
* c-basic-offset: 3
* indent-tabs-mode: nil
* End:
*/
I don't like these because they are only for people using emacs. If everybody would
put statements into the files with their favourite editor, all our source files
would be cluttered quite a bit.
So the question is now how style to use? I attached different trials with a simple
file from the distribution, so you can see the differences. They use the style from
- LLVM
- ROOT
- GNU
- Google
I consciously skipped the "Microsoft" style ;-)
Which one should we settle on? Any opinion? If I don't hear anything, I will pick a
style at the end of this year 2020. I have a slight favour of the ROOT style, although
I don't like that the "case" is not indented there under the opening brace of the
switch statement which seems inconsistent to me. The only one doing that right is the
Google format, but that one has an indentation of 2 chars instead our usual 3 chars.
At the end of the day I think it's not so important on which style we agree, as long
as we DO have a common style for all midas files.
Best,
Stefan |

Stefan Ritt | Suggestion | Code formatting | After pondering over the holidays, I decided to use the widely used LLVM code formatting,
just adapted slightly for 3 spaces and "case" indentation in a "switch" statement. This
formatting is now very close to our original one. Nevertheless, I did not reformat all
existing code, since that would screw up the git repository, and you cannot see then anymore
who wrote which line of code. But having the .clang-format file now in the midas root, all
NEW files fill follow that standard.
The CLion editor automatically picks up the .clang-format file if your enable ClangFomrat
via Preferences -> Code Style -> General -> Enable ClangFormat.
EMACS can also use this file by adding following lines to your .emacs:
(load "<path-to-clang>/tools/clang-format/clang-format.el")
(global-set-key [C-M-tab] 'clang-format-region)
One problem left is if you check out midas on a new machine, you might not have there your
personal .emacs file. If there is a way to ship a .emacs with midas, which gets
automatically loaded, I would be happy to put this into the distribution.

Isaac Labrie Boulay | Forum | Client gets immediately removed when using a script button. | Hi all,
I'm running into a curious problem when I try to run a program using my custom
script button. I have been using a script button to start my DAQ, this button
has always worked. It starts by exporting an absolute path to scripts and then
runs scripts, my frontend, my analyzer, and mlogger relative to this path.
I recently added a line of code to run a new script "logic_controller". If I run
the script_daq from my terminal (./start_daq), mhttpd accepts the client and the
program works as intended. But, if I use the script button, the logic_controller
program is immediately deleted by MIDAS. It can be seen appearing in the status
page clients list and then immediately gets deleted. This is a client that runs
on the local experiment host.
What might be the issue? What is the difference between running the script
through the terminal as opposed to running it through the mhttpd button?
I have added a picture of my simple script and the logic_controller code.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers.

Ben Smith | Forum | Client gets immediately removed when using a script button. | > if I use the script button, the logic_controller program is immediately deleted by MIDAS.
This is indeed very curious, and I can't reproduce it on my test experiment. Can you redirect stdout and stderr from the logic_controller program into a file, to see how far the program gets? If it gets to the while loop at the end, then it would be useful to add some debug statements to see what condition causes it to exit the loop.
Are there any relevant messages in the midas message log about the program being killed? What's the value of "/Programs/logic_controller/Watchdog timeout"? |

I have redirected stdout and stderr into a text file and I have attached it to this entry. From what the stdout says, it seems that the lambda
function gets called 4 times before the program disconnects from the experiment. Somehow the status must become SS_ABORT or RPC_SHUTDOWN.
> Are there any relevant messages in the midas message log about the program being killed? What's the value of "/Programs/logic_controller/Watchdog timeout"?
There are no interesting messages in the midas.log and "/Programs/logic_controller/Watchdog timeout" is 10000 when I run the command from the terminal window.
What happens when you run it on your test experiment?
I'll try some more debugging.
Thanks for helping me out! Cheers.

Hi Ben,
I have followed your suggestions and the program still stops immediately. My status as returned from "cm_yield(100)" is always 412 (SS_TIMEOUT) which is fine.
The issue is that, when run with the script button, the do-wile loop stops immediately because the !ss_kbhit() always evaluates to FALSE.
My temporary solution has been to let the loop run forever :)
Let me know what think. Thanks again!
Isaac

Ahh, could be that ss_kbhit() misbehaves if there is no keyboard, meaning that it is started in the background as a script.
We never had the issue before, since all "standard" midas programs like mlogger, mhttpd etc. also use ss_kbhit() and they
can be started in the background via the "-D" flag, but maybe the stdin is then handled differentlhy.
So just remove the ss_kbhit(), but keep the break, so that you can stop your program via the web page, like
#include "midas.h"
#include "stdio.h"
int main() {
cm_connect_experiment("", "", "logic_controller", NULL);
do {
int status = cm_yield(100);
printf("cm_yield returned %d\n", status);
if (status == SS_ABORT || status == RPC_SHUTDOWN)
break;
} while (TRUE);
cm_disconnect_experiment();
return 0;

It is not as clean as what you asked, but I have in the past written javascript like this to check if a program is running
var req = new Array();
req[0]= "Programs/towerfe3_00/First failed";
var result = ODBMGet(req);
if(result[0] == 0){
// then program is running

Yes, I can add an ajax method for cm_exist. While at it, maybe ajax methods for starting and stopping
clients - to permit fully ajaxed implementation of the "programs" page?
K.O.
(But only under the condition that you post elog messages in "plain" format - fancy formatted messages
with highlighted word "very" show up as complete dog breakfast in my text based email. If you want to
highlight something, just say "***!!!***very***!!!***", add more bangs to taste). |

Stefan Ritt | Bug Fix | Chat working again | Not sure how many people are using it, but the Chat facility in midas was broken
for some time now and got fixed today again.
Just for your information: Chat can be used like WhatsApp & Co, and connects all
people who access a midas experiment through their browser. It's good to
communicate between shift crew members located at different places. One advantage
is that the chat messages can get 'spoken' by the text-to-speech engine of your
browser, so it can be used to "wake up" shifters. Can be configured through the
"Config" page.

Stefan Ritt | Info | Change of pointer type in mvmestd.h | I had to change the pointer type of mvme_read and mvme_write to (void *) instead
to (mvme_locaddr_t *) to avoid warnings under 64-bit linux. Please adjust your
VME drivers if necessary.
