[Chromium] Fix crash in WebFrameImpl::loadHistoryItem
Comment 1 Kent Tamura 2012-09-10 22:08:28 PDT
It seems we access both of 'this' and 'otherItem' at HistoryItem.cpp::555. So I'm not sure which is NULL.

I worry that this patch is papering over the real problem.  It sounds like this crash was a regression at some point (or at least it started occurring somewhat recently).  Without a repro, it can be hard to narrow the regression range, but have we tried?

We don't have a repro and this crash started at Google Chrome 10 AFAIK.  I don't think investigating all of WebKit/Chromium changes between Google Chrome 9 and 10 is doable.

BTW, Is it possible that m_frame->loader()->history()->currentItem() returns 0?

I'm not sure who understands HistoryController the best.  I factored it out of FrameLoader a while back, but I don't really understand it completely.

It seems it can be null.  HistoryController has a lot of null check for m_currentItem.
I updated the patch so that it checkes only currentItem.

Patch 2

Ok. This patch seems better than the previous one.  It's aways worrying when we ASSERT one thing and then handle the case where the ASSERT fails.  Obviously, I'd much prefer if we had a regression test for this issue.  Perhaps we can investigate when currentItem() returns 0 and build a test case out of that?  I'm going to mark this patch r+, but please consider working on a test case.
