How the filename is (properly) displayed under Manjaro (this triggering the plasma crash)

SUMMARY

Some specific files containing some rare UTF-8 characters (i.e. : coloured dots) trigger an instant crash of the FolderView plasmoid containing them. (if not visible: crash occurs when scrolling)

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

I couldn't reproduce it under KDE Neon as, for some reason, the system doesn't seem to handle those characters. They are replaced by empty squares.

The Plasma crash does occur all the time under Arch based Manjaro.

1. Download this video with youtube-dl https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUezQDPq44A
2. You'll notice the filename contains rare red and yellow dots (as seen in the youtube page)
3. Copy them to a folder watched by a folder view plasmoid

EXPECTED RESULT

Filename is displayed, you can scroll the folder view...

ACTUAL RESULT

You either get an instant Plasma Shell crash (leading to an infinite restating loop if the file is visible from the start and needs no scrolling down)

Or you have to scroll you folder view to get the crash. 

Here it happens ALL the time when scrollings and most of the time when not scrolling. It stops when removing the aforementioned file.


NOTE :

- The Folder View plasmoid is capable of displaying the file / title but crashes nonetheless
- Dolphin handles the filename properly
- Title is displayed properly (and trigger the bug) under Arch / Manjaro but not under Neon (thus not triggered the bug)

The provided attachment shows how the filename is displayed under Manjaro KDE.
Comment 1 Kai Uwe Broulik 2018-09-24 14:04:19 UTC
This needs a backtrace but I suspect crashes somewhere in Qt's font rendering.

I cannot reproduce the bug here on neon but I have "fonts-noto-color-emoji" installed, so I do see a red circle emoji.
Comment 2 Mahendra Tallur 2018-09-24 14:06:55 UTC
Hi Kai, thanks for the quick reply.
OK, I'll get a backtrace.
Did you try to hide the file in the middle of a folder view and scroll down ?
I will get back to you ASAP. Thanks !
Comment 3 Kai Uwe Broulik 2018-09-24 14:10:12 UTC
Yes, I just did and still no crash. I also tried increasing the line count so the other special character is alos rendered but to no avail.
Can you check whether any of the following crashes:

- Running plasmawindowed org.kde.plasma.folder /path/to/folder
- Running QT_QUICK_BACKEND=software plasmashell (you can see it's running in software mode when the dropshadow behind icons is gone)
Comment 4 Mahendra Tallur 2018-09-25 07:37:56 UTC
@Kai :

I made a few more tests.

1. Sometimes, depending on the icon position, the crash is not triggered. To force it to happen, drag & drop the icon of the file with special characters. Drop it, it'll disappear and lead to a Plasmashell crash.

2. The crash doesn't happen with "plasmawindowed"

3. The crash doesn't happen in software mode

I still have to get the debugtrace.
Cheers !

As I feared, crash in QSG / Text rendering:

Thanks a lot for your investigative help! Hopefully, someone more knowledgable in that area than me can reproduce the crash and find a minimalist testcase to report that issue to Qt.

@Kai : thanks for your kind reply.

BTW, I've just realized the bug didn't NOT occur when switching my NVIDIA card (latest proprietary drivers) with an AMD one (with the open source drivers)...

Cannot reproduce; seems like this got fixed in Qt's font rendering somewhere.
