Xorg.0.log from 1.20.9 (crashing)

I've set severity to major because of https://bugs.gentoo.org/734976.

Here is part of Xorg.0.log where working 1.20.8-r1 differ from broken 1.20.9:

> I have problem with xorg-server-1.20.9 too. But it's different backtrace

Could you compile with debugging symbols as per the link, and share again? This will likely need to be reported upstream (https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/issues).

Possibly related: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/issues/1068 (it's hard to tell until we get the BT with symbols)

Maybe you could try the patch they suggest in that bug? Thanks for the reports.
Comment 5 Thomas Lindroth 2020-08-26 11:01:10 UTC
I also hit this. Null pointer deref at xf86platformProbe() xf86platformBus.c:292 in xorg-server-1.20.9. Same as https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/issues/1068

I suggest the stable version is downgraded to 1.20.8 before more people hit this.

https://i.imgur.com/JyH5JGh.jpg backtrack with debug symbols.

I run X as root using an integrated intel gpu on a haswell cpu. The crash happens with both xf86-video-intel and modesetting.
Comment 6 Steffen Kremser 2020-08-26 11:53:43 UTC
can confirm

 (EE) Segmentation fault at address 0x0

with radeon VGA  on AMD Ryzen 3000G (normally handled by amdgpu)
.. on a  no-systemd build (important)

Someone with a many-core-box has already bisected the 1.20.9 commit
here:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=esE4a639nKU

.. so someone thought it was a good idea make a point release combining 
- 4 CVE fixes (the everyone should have)  AND
- some "improve pci detection" crap that depends on string data from systemd

masking  xorg-server-1.20.9  gets me a working dektop .. with know vulnerabilities (X_x)
Comment 7 Piotr Karbowski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2020-08-26 12:53:28 UTC
I cannot reproduce it on OpenRC system with amdgpu, however I do use elogind. 

@Steffen Kremser: are you running with elogind or +suid?

yes, my system is compiled with elogind,

- normally using xdm servie -> sddm
- currently in fallback mode (sddm session stops immediately) 
.. so i'm back to typing "startx" in a console session; .xinitrc does 

dbus-run-session startplasma-x11

.. due to  "failed to open authorisation file /var/run/sddm/{random_uuid}"  btw.

Comment 11 Steffen Kremser 2020-08-26 16:08:33 UTC
upstream issue: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/issues/1068

they had already fixed this segfault (upstrem proposed fix is "include this existing commit")

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/commit/e50c85f4ebf559a3bac4817b41074c43d4691779

quick check:
- copy patch file into /etc/portage/patches/x11-base/xorg-server-1.20.9/
- remove mask entry for 1.20.9
- recompile
- restart X
-> no segfault, desktop starts as expected

+1 for patch working, thanks.

VIDEO_CARDS="amdgpu" in my case.

Comment 16 MickKi 2020-08-27 20:13:34 UTC
I've had the same on a no-multilib profile, with Intel video card.  Then I noticed it had evdev and synaptics on it.  I removed these, added libinput and upon a resync it downgraded to 1.20.8-r1.  So I can't tell what caused the segfault, especially as the logs were not particularly informative.  Other boxen with AMD APUs and no evdev or synaptics worked fine with 1.20.9, so I'm mentioning it here in case it is somehow relevant.

Kind regards,
Mick

I have the same problem on Xwayland, with both xorg-server-1.20.8-r1 and 1.20.9 (even with patch above).

Comment 18 Piotr Karbowski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2020-09-08 13:13:32 UTC
Does not seems to be related to this issue. Build xorg-server with debug symbols, narrow down what is the function that crash on you and create new bug with the findings.
