[Touch-packages] [Bug 1820584] Re: seahorse assert failure: seahorse: glib-watch.c:195: timeout_update: Assertion `!t->dead' failed.
After some more digging and having reproduced the issue a few more times, here is what seems to happen. Seahorse is running, using the avahi library. Seahorse has called avahi_glib_poll_new() and some AvahiTimeout timeouts have been created. Then things are stopped because the computer is about to be rebooted. Seahorse is closing down and therefore does some cleanup, among other things it calls avahi_glib_poll_free() which calls cleanup_timeouts() which destroys all the timeouts. However, after the timeouts were destroyed, there still exists a pointer to one of those timeouts in the dispatch_timeout member in a ConnectionData struct. For some reason the dispatch_timeout_callback() function is called at this point, and it does "ConnectionData *d = userdata" and that ConnectionData struct has inside it a dispatch_timeout pointer which is now invalid because the timeout was destroyed, its memory was freed, as a result of the avahi_glib_poll_free() call earlier. dispatch_timeout_callback() passes the ConnectionData *d to request_dispatch() which calls timeout_update() passing the invalid d->dispatch_timeout pointer, which is then used and happens to point to some garbage which gives the assertion failure. Not sure exactly how to fix the problem, but it seems bad that pointers to destroyed data structures are still lying around, maybe things should be destroyed in a different order. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to avahi in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1820584 Title: seahorse assert failure: seahorse: glib-watch.c:195: timeout_update: Assertion `!t->dead' failed.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1820584] Re: seahorse assert failure: seahorse: glib-watch.c:195: timeout_update: Assertion `!t->dead' failed.
I added some extra debug output in avahi and waited for the error to happen again, in this way found out that the assertion failure happens when the time_event_queue_root(q) call gives NULL so that the "else" part is used in update_timeout() in avahi-core/timeeventq.c: static void update_timeout(AvahiTimeEventQueue *q) { AvahiTimeEvent *e; assert(q); if ((e = time_event_queue_root(q))) q->poll_api->timeout_update(q->timeout, &e->expiry); else q->poll_api->timeout_update(q->timeout, NULL); <-- assertion failure inside this call } So time_event_queue_root(q) gives NULL which means that q->prioq->root is NULL. Why would that happen? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to avahi in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1820584 Title: seahorse assert failure: seahorse: glib-watch.c:195: timeout_update: Assertion `!t->dead' failed.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1823404] [NEW] Memory errors reported by valgrind for gdebi-gtk
Public bug reported: This is for gdebi version 0.9.5.7+nmu2. When running gdebi-gtk through valgrind, for example like this: valgrind gdebi-gtk -h that shows lots of memory errors, for example: - Conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised value(s) - Use of uninitialised value of size 8 - Invalid read of size 4 - Address 0x4e68020 is 304 bytes inside a block of size 2,208 free'd and so on. So there are bugs in the code that can cause the program to crash.
