Verification done for resolute: xorg-server 2:21.1.22-1ubuntu1.3 from
resolute-proposed fixes the crash.
Test system:
- HP Pavilion x360 14-dh1xxx (Intel CometLake-U UHD, modesetting), Secure Boot
enabled
- Ubuntu Cinnamon 26.04.1 live session (X11, real Xorg via LightDM), kernel
7.0.0-30-generic
- DisplayLink USB3.0 UHD DisplayPort Adapter (17e9:4301) with a monitor attached
- displaylink-driver 6.4.0-22, evdi from
linux-main-modules-evdi-7.0.0-30-generic 7.0.0-30.30 (signed by Canonical),
libevdi1 1.14.15+dfsg-0ubuntu1
- evdi initial_device_count=0 (the module default), so DisplayLinkManager
creates the evdi device after X is running
Steps, run identically on each version:
1. Stop lightdm and displaylink-driver, reload evdi so no evdi device exists.
2. Start lightdm (X comes up with no evdi GPU), then start displaylink-driver.
Xorg.0.log shows the runtime add: "config/udev: Adding drm device
(/dev/dri/card0)", "modeset(G0): using drv /dev/dri/card0".
3. Restart lightdm, which tears the X server down with the hotplugged GPU
screen still present.
Before, 2:21.1.22-1ubuntu1.2 (resolute-updates): the teardown crashes,
as in the bug description:
(EE) Segmentation fault at address 0x0
(EE) Caught signal 11 (Segmentation fault). Server aborting
(EE) Server terminated with error (1). Closing log file.
and systemd-coredump records an Xorg core (SIGABRT from the signal
handler).
After, 2:21.1.22-1ubuntu1.3 (resolute-proposed): same steps, run twice.
Each time the runtime add appears in the log, the GPU screen is torn
down ("UnloadModule: modesetting") and the server exits cleanly ("Server
terminated successfully (0)"), with no core dumps. The DisplayLink
monitor is active under 1.3 (DVI-I-1-1 at 1280x1440 in xrandr), so the
adapter still works normally.
The udev NULL-subsystem fix in the same upload is a teardown race that
can't be triggered on demand (see the test plan); it did not fire in
these runs, and nothing regressed.
Changing the tag to verification-done-resolute.
