Comment 1 Benjamin Poulain 2010-10-01 06:26:55 PDT

Update: the crash cannot be reproduced on desktop.

Comment 2 Benjamin Poulain 2010-10-01 08:07:10 PDT

Update: the crash happen on the mirrored website http://www.msn.com/
It is the row20 in the top_50 database. To reproduce it: 

./tst_scrolling  -graphicssystem raster -database bpoulains-webkit_test_datasets/top_50_january/crawl_db.db scroll:row20

It does not seems to be an out of memory problem, the device still has plenty of ram available when it is crashing.

Comment 3 Benjamin Poulain 2010-10-06 10:11:04 PDT

Updates:
-the same crash happen with trunk
-valgrind reported issues with neon, this is not the problem

Comment 4 Benjamin Poulain 2010-10-07 03:02:14 PDT

Update: It also crashes without the JIT. But valgrind is still not reporting anything useful :(

valgrind: the 'impossible' happened:
   Killed by fatal signal

Comment 5 Benjamin Poulain 2010-10-08 05:58:31 PDT

I finally solved this thing. The problem was in Qt, the patch is in the commit 4d974ff0a748b22e668a4cb7ef38101122c85b3b

To summarize what was going on:
-the gif plugin decode a frame
-the gif plugin keep a reference to this frame for future usage
-because of the bug, in-place conversion took place on the image returned by the plugin, which is also the one kept by the plugin
-because the color space is 16 bits on device, the in-place conversion half the memory allocated
-when WebKit need the next image, the gif plugin reuse the cached image, and write out of the memor since the conversion reduced it.

-after some time writing outside the memory bounds, the memory is so messed up we end up with random crashes in WebCore.

Excellent!

Kevin, this _could've_ been the same crash with gifs that you've seen... maybe.

Good point. I am gonna check that.

Fixed in Qt (included in the qt-4.7 branch). No need to block the qtwebkit-2.1 release anymore.
