I use inferior-octave-mode, where the Octave interpreter runs in a
buffer, similarly to shell-mode.

Starting somewhere later than Emacs 22, this mode makes on-the-fly
syntax suggestions whenever point is at a function definition or
similar.

Apparently something goes wrong with this funcitonality, or so I
suspect.  I get error messages about

  Blocking call to accept-process-output with quit inhibited!!

and even when this does not happen, Emacs sometimes freezes for a couple
of seconds especially when an inferior-octave buffer is visible.

I had Emacs dump core on me in connection with this problem.

This happened when I had two buffers open in two windows: an
inferior-octave-mode buffer and a source code buffer in octave-mode.

While Octave was busy doing some computation in the inferior-octave-mode
buffer, after moving point on the source code buffer to a standard
function call, I got the infamous message in the subject.

At this point, Emacs refused to answer.  After some C-g, it offered to
auto-save and then dump core, which I did.

I can see it here.

It's pretty weird, though. Neither octave.el not comint.el reference 
inhibit-quit.

When these things happen, please in the future attach a debugger and
try producing a backtrace, that could allow us to try to figure out
what was the reason of the problem.  Unless you can reproduce the
problem at will, of course.

Thanks.

"See" meaning you can reproduce the hang?

According to description, Francesco was editing while
inferior-octave-mode was doing something in the background, so it's
possible that some foreground code just happened to bind inhibit-quit
at the wrong moment.

Yes:

1. Install Octave.
2. emacs -Q
3. M-x run-octave
4. Switch to octave-mode in the scratch, delete everything.
5. Type 'abs ', wait. See that message.

I don't see any freezing, though.

Only see this message once (repeated twice, though) in an 'emacs -Q' 
session, but in my normal session I can repeat it at will by deleting 's 
' and typing them again.

Indeed, but what foreground code? The major mode is octave-mode.

If you can reproduce this at will, run under GDB, put a breakpoint at
the line which emits the message, and when it breaks, produce a
backtrace.  I'd expect the offending code to be evident from that,
especially if you also run "xbacktrace" to see the Lisp backtrace.

Thanks.

Here it is:

Thread 1 "emacs" hit Breakpoint 3, wait_reading_process_output

Any ideas?

eldoc-print-current-symbol-info uses with-demoted-errors, which expands 
into a condition-case, but does that inhibit quitting somehow?

And inferior-octave-send-list-and-digest uses unwind-protect.

Looks like it's in timer-event-handler:

(defun timer-event-handler (timer)
  ...
  (let ((inhibit-quit t))

This is https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=19853, orthogonal 
to the currently discussed problem.

Yes. Or more concretely, use with-local-quit like 
url-retrieve-synchronously does.

In the context of comint, though, we might consider what to do if Octave 
actually takes too long to produce the result, the user presses C-g, and 
we need to abort. Do we restore the normal process filter, and refuse to 
be bothered even though Octave will continue producing output (now 
visible to the user if they switch to the REPL buffer)?

As a first approximation, this seems to fix the bug:

I disabled the hints with
 M-x global-eldoc-mode

Now Emacs is more responsive when I edit an Octave source file and use
the inferior Octave buffer.

I suspect that, when moving point in the source code and even in the
running Octave window, as soon as eldoc mode sees a function near point
it secretely sends a help command to the inferior Octave: the same
inferior Octave which I am using.

This works mot of the time, but if Octave is running a long command it
locks Emacs until the long command execution finishes and the prompt is
returned.

It also makes damage in some other cases that I cannot identify.

Yes, this problem should be common for all modes that use the REPL for 
fetching information like this. E.g. python-eldoc-function.

Normally, we don't see long-running commands in the user REPL. Or don't 
expect the user to switch back to the source buffer and continue 
editing. Octave might be a significant exception in that regard.

Anyway, please try the attached combined patch and see if it fixes your 
problem.

> It also makes damage in some other cases that I cannot identify.

If you have company-mode installed and enabled, similar problem can 
occur (when completion is triggered automatically).

It does not seem to work, sorry.  I launch a long-running command in the
inferior octave buffer, then in another window I go and edit the octave
source.  After a while everything is frozen.  The long-running command
is stopped midway and a syntax error is signaled which involves the
function point was on in the source.

I did not restart emacs for testing, I just evaluated the patched
octave.el.  Is that alright?

Does it makes sense at all to use the same process for interaction and
for asking help?  Wouldn't it be simpler and more robust if a dedicated
octave process was started for eldoc?
