[Desktop-packages] [Bug 738526] Re: crash accessing font info with xfs in fontpath

[Paul White]

Both upstream bug reports were fixed along time ago

An 'Incomplete' bug report raised against Ubuntu 10.10 is
of little use now as the last manual comment was made almost
ten years ago.

Will close as being fixed due to any comments suggesting that
the bug is still extant in a currently supported release.

Thanks for taking a look at this.

This appears to fix my testcase above, so Tested-by:

I don't know if this is likely to regress bug #3040, or how to test
that.

[Keith Packard]

Created attachment 118203
Allow font library to return Suspended more than once per request

fonts: Continue when font calls return Suspended more than once

Patch 3ab6cd31cbdf8095b2948034fce5fb645422d8da fixed Xinerama
interactions with font servers by not putting clients to sleep
multiple times. However, it introduced additional changes dealing with
libXfont routine returning Suspended more than once for the same
request. This additional change was to abandon processing of the
current request and free the closure data by jumping to
'xinerama_sleep' in each of the functions.

Font library functions shouldn't return Suspended more than once,
except for ListFontsWithInfo, which produces multiple replies, and
thus ends up returning Suspended many times during processing.

With the jump to xinerama_sleep occurring after the first reply was
processed, the closure for the request was freed and future calls into
the ListFontsWithInfo callback resulted in dereferencing freed
memory.

This patch removes the added branches, reverting the code to its
previous behaviour, which permitted multiple Suspended returns and
simply waited for the client to be signaled again so that the callback
could continue processing the request.

[Christopher M. Penalver]

Ashley Yakeley, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been
any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications-Accessories-Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p xorg-server REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER

Please note, given you already have done this in a prior release,
performing this on a release prior to Trusty would not be helpful.

Thank you for your understanding.

[Ajv-741-876-6683]

Please note that those of us who live with Ubuntu's LTS world will be
arriving at 12.04 over the coming months.  This bug will jump right out
at you if you run an environment with many stations and non-standard
collections of fonts.  It sure blew *me* right out of the water...

[V]

According to the link: 
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2183029

I commented out from /etc/X11/xorg.conf :
#Section Files
# FontPath unix/:7100
#EndSection

to achieve a similar effect of uninstalling xfs
This seems to be another successful workaround. (Unless xfs is manually called 
or something).

[christopherbalz]

Uninstalling xfs, for example by simply using Synaptic (search on 'xfs',
and do 'Remove' (but not 'Remove Completely'), worked for me on Ubuntu
12.04 LTS all-up-to-date as of now.
