Comment 1 Martin Flöser 2011-11-04 18:30:20 UTC
The crash indicates you were using Alt+Tab (or something related) when the crash happened. Can you figure out a way to reproduce the crash.

I had a few crashes after the recent change of Alt+Tab code but had not seen this one.
Comment 2 Francesco Riosa 2011-11-05 12:37:31 UTC
I've _not_ been able to reproduce this in the latest days.

I'm using this revision at the moment and will upgrade tomorrow

Comment 3 Martin Flöser 2011-12-10 08:37:01 UTC
assuming it is fixed
Comment 4 Andre Woebbeking 2012-01-10 10:33:43 UTC
Hi Martin,

I've the same crash in KDE 4.8 and Qt 4.8.0 (both self compiled from uptodate branch). KWin crashes sometimes when I press Meta+Tab (switch desktop) for a very short time as I only want to jump to the last used desktop. I had disabled the desktop effect for switching desktops.


Cheers,
André

Comment 6 Martin Flöser 2012-01-27 20:01:41 UTC
The problem is most likely fixed in master. I have to switch to the 4.8 branch in order to fix it. I have a pretty good idea about what is going wrong there and hope to find the time to investigate the issue and fix it for 4.8.

Sorry for introducing this regression.

This crash happens several times a day. Here is another backtrace (I do not know if it helps or if it is redundant? But it looks a bit more detailed.)

Kubuntu 11.10
KDE4.8.0 from kubuntu backports

Crash happens when switching to the last desktop by a hotkey (in my case ctrl+tab).

Comment 9 Thomas Lübking 2012-02-01 15:18:55 UTC
last trace is a dupe of bug #290482 - still likely the same issue
Comment 10 Martin Flöser 2012-02-05 20:48:08 UTC
I just recompiled KWin 4.8 and are unable to reproduce the issue. No matter how I use ctrl+tab to switch between desktop I don't get a crash.

Can someone provide a 100 % sure way to reproduce the issue? Including all relevant settings (yes everything is relevant).
Comment 11 Leonardo Giordani 2012-02-06 14:51:04 UTC
Sorry but I cannot find a way to surely reproduce it: the only sure thing is that I can experience it on several Kubuntu 11.10 installation with KDE 4.8 packages (ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports).

Feel free to ask details of the installation if you need them; I don't know what could be useful.
Comment 12 g111 2012-02-06 15:25:01 UTC
I do have the same problem. I cannot find a way to reproduce it. It just happens several times a day. Sometimes it works 20 or more times without crashing, sometimes it crashes two times in maybe 6 desktop switches.

All crashes did only happen by switching "to last desktop" via hot key. It did not happen yet when switching to the left, right, upper or lower desktop.

I have configured a desktop grid of 3x6 desktops.

I have composite enabled and am using the Xrender extension as the current intel video driver in ubuntu crashes xorg with KDE. (This is fixed with the latest xorg backports, but I want to wait for the next ubuntu release for upgrading xorg.)
Comment 13 Leonardo Giordani 2012-02-06 16:12:40 UTC
I though I had composite switched off, but now I looked into it and found that my "desktop effects are not available" since "OpenGL composite crashed Kwin" (my translation in english). So at the time being I cannot say if it depends on buggy composite or not. As soon as possible I'm going to update this. Thanks
Comment 14 Martin Flöser 2012-03-09 07:20:04 UTC
As I am unable to reproduce, there is unfortunately nothing I can do about the crash in 4.8. I know that this crash has been fixed in 4.9 due to changes in general to the affected code base which also means that I can no longer even try to reproduce the issue in my working system.

Because of that I change the state of the bug to fixed. I am sorry for any inconvenience in the usage of 4.8.

If someone can provide a 100 % sure way to reproduce the crash I am willing to look at it again.
Comment 15 Andre Woebbeking 2012-03-13 11:29:45 UTC
Hi Martin, can I help you somehow? And no, I don't have a 100 % sure way :-( But today I had two crashes again.
Comment 16 Martin Flöser 2012-03-13 16:21:36 UTC
Without a clear way on how to reproduce the issue, I won't be able to investigate it. Given that I work on 4.9 and there the crash is fixed, it is rather difficult for me.

If there is a way to reproduce the crash with a reliability of at least 90 % I can try to look at it.
Comment 17 Thomas Lübking 2012-03-13 19:11:55 UTC
the traces look like m_clientList is garbled (esp. see comment #8) but what makes me really wonder:
How please can switching the desktop (via shortcut, one of the reports is even by mousewheel) cause a crash in the tabbox? And if it was some overflow from the desktop indicator, why so reproducible segfault location?

-> Do i terribly miss something? Do we have a tabbox for VDs as well?
-> Does it crash if you disable the desktop switching indicators (esp. that one showing the arrow)?
Comment 18 Leonardo Giordani 2012-03-13 19:15:23 UTC
I cannot confirm my previous report of crashing after switch with mouse wheel; it never happened again so perhaps I wrongly reported it. I can experience it with keyboard shortcut anyway. Sorry for the bad report.

yes, that exists and that could be related. My feeling is, that the crashes 
are caused by:
1. tabbox gets activated for desktop switching
2. declarative view gets somehow activated
3. tries to access the icon of the selected client
4. that does not exist -> crash

The 2. should not happen. If desktop switching tabbox is selected it should 
not interfere at all with the window switching code path. This is what I don't 
understand and where I need the way to reproduce the crash. When I have a 
pattern on how to reproduce I hope to find a solution for why it gets 
activated. Btw. I think this crash is related to the other tabbox crash we 
have/had in 4.8.

In master it is fixed as desktop switching tabbox now also uses a declarative 
view.
> -> Does it crash if you disable the desktop switching indicators (esp. that
> one showing the arrow)?
I doubt it. Completely different code.

Comment 21 leiz 2012-03-23 21:15:07 UTC
So I see this is fixed in 4.9, but not 4.8, and there's nothing to cherry-pick back to 4.8 since the code got rewritten in some way. This is unfortunate, since Ubuntu's LTS is with 4.8. This means KDE users with Ubuntu's LTS will have this bug for a couple years. Many users on this bug and I are all hitting this crash several times a day.

I also don't have a way to repro the bug consistently, but when it happens, it's always from hitting the hotkey for "Walk Through Desktop List" in rapid succession. In my case, I have 3 virtual desktops.
Comment 22 leiz 2012-04-03 23:52:55 UTC
It is also more likely to happen when the machine is under load. This happens several times a day. Would it be helpful to do a local build with some logging to help figure out how this crash occurs?

A possible fix for this crash might be https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/105000/

It would be appreciated if someone could test whether the patch fixes this issue, too.

Git commit 05a3420175c88c7a106a245071d4bb3a75694e00 by Martin Gräßlin.
Committed on 20/05/2012 at 15:52.
Pushed by graesslin into branch 'master'.

Use smart pointers to protect access to TabBoxClient

Client holds a SharedPointer to the TabBoxClient and only
provides access to a WeakPointer which is passed to TabBox.
ClientModel is adjusted to hold a list of WeakPointers instead
of the direct pointers.

This fixes the following reproducable crash:
1. Configure both primary and secondary TabBox with different
   layouts
2. Use primary TabBox
3. Close a window, best the one which used to be active
4. Use secondary TabBox
-> Crash

The reason is that the ClientModel still contains the pointer
to the deleted TabBoxClient in step 3 and while creating the
layout access to the TabBoxClient is needed to get the Client's
icon.

By using the weak pointer it can be ensured that we don't try
to dereference the deleted pointer and prevent the crash.
