Unless graphics folks have any ideas, we need to remove the PlatformDisplay exit handlers. (In reply to Michael Catanzaro from comment #1) > Unless graphics folks have any ideas, we need to remove the PlatformDisplay > exit handlers. The exit handlers are not needed for program correctness as far as I'm aware, and they've been causing many, many crashes over the years. So I think it's time for them to go. At least this particular one. Created attachment 324987 [details]
Patch
I think we need to understand why it's crashing and only if it's not possible to fix it we can remove the exit handlers. I don't remember why, but I think we shut down the egl displays for a reason. IIRC mesa has its own exit handlers to clean up stuff too.

I am seeing this crash with liferea when running liferea headless to get GIR symbols, see https://github.com/lwindolf/liferea/issues/552 for details. Comment on attachment 324987 [details]
Patch
Carlos, I don't understand why it's crashing, and the graphics people don't seem to have been able to debug it. Strongly suggest pushing this in now. If the exit handlers are needed to work around OS or driver bugs, then they should be reintroduced once they can be done without crashing.

(In reply to Carlos Alberto Lopez Perez from comment #9) > Does http://trac.webkit.org/r201595 help remembering? Note: it was an exit-time destructor before that patch, too (since the PlatformDisplay was not NeverDestroyed). The goal there was to move it to run earlier at exit time, to avoid a specific crash. But as long as we do work at exit time, there will always be more crashes....

Those links are currently showing 704 total crashes. I missed this one: https://retrace.fedoraproject.org/faf/reports/1793321/ which shows 2024 reports. That's 2728 total reports of this crash from Fedora alone. (In reply to Michael Catanzaro from comment #11) > which shows 2024 reports. That's 2728 total reports of this crash from > Fedora alone. I should add: only 688 unique reports (reports from users who haven't reported the crash before). So about four reports per unique user. ephy-search-provider crashes 100% for me... I didn't notice for so long because the search provider was broken for most of the 3.26 cycle, and the update fixing it just hit Fedora 27.
Some debugging:
Since this is the search provider, we wind up taking this path in PlatformDisplay::createPlatformDisplay:
#if PLATFORM(WAYLAND)
if (auto platformDisplay = PlatformDisplayWayland::create())
return platformDisplay;
#endif
Notably, that's the only path where m_nativeDisplayOwned is true, so it's the only path where the native display is destroyed. That's why the crash only occurs for the search provider. So we destroy it here:
PlatformDisplayWayland::~PlatformDisplayWayland()
{
if (m_nativeDisplayOwned == NativeDisplayOwned::Yes)
wl_display_destroy(m_display);
}
That's definitely wrong, because this wl_display was created with wl_display_connect(), which is Wayland client API, but wl_display_destroy() is Wayland server API. So we must never call wl_display_destroy(). The right function to use is wl_display_disconnect(), which parallels the call to wl_display_connect() that we used to create the wl_display in PlatformDisplayWayland::create. It's confusing, though, because the UI process is both a Wayland client of the desktop compositor, and also and a Wayland server for the web process.
Now, with that fixed locally, there's no longer any crash inside wl_display_destroy(), and wl_display_disconnect() works fine. But I'm seeing a similar crash immediately after that, when the wl_compositor is destroyed. I suspect this indicates the root of the problem: we're trying to use the same wl_display as both a Wayland client and Wayland server, and I guess that isn't right. It doesn't happen when there's a GtkWindow because then GDK's wl_display is used as the client display instead.

That's not true, I got confused by wl_compositor. That's client API too. Perhaps it should be destroyed before its wl_display. Created attachment 335523 [details]

Good catch! this is exactly what I wanted, once we understand the problem we can easily fix the actual bug. WlUniquePtr<wl_display> is only used once in Waylandcompositor, which is a singleton, so I think we can simply remove it to avoid confusions and use destroy/disconnect directly.

I'll continue to vote in favor of getting rid of these buggy exit handlers altogether. I doubt we really need to be calling wl_display_destroy().
