1749805 - Crash Linux X BadWindow (EGL/fluxbox X11/AMD)

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1750017

(Core :: Widget: Gtk, defect)

Description

[zlice]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:98.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/98.0

Steps to reproduce:

Browse the web, sometimes a new window, other times just sitting on a page that must still be loading.

This happened once I updated to nightly 98.

Actual results:

Silent crashes, have only been able to get this one time while running from a terminal.

(firefox:5387): Gdk-WARNING **: 13:25:38.217: The program 'firefox' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'.
  (Details: serial 101448 error_code 3 request_code 129 (SHAPE) minor_code 2)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the GDK_SYNCHRONIZE environment
   variable to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

Expected results:

No random crashes, or at least a error dialogue window to send to FF.

Are you able to find a regression range? You get a pushlog URL at the end.
$ pip3 install --user --upgrade mozregression
$ ~/.local/bin/mozregression --good 97 --bad 98 -a https://example.org

I'm not sure when/if I'll have time since it seems random. But I'm confident it wasn't happening until I updated to nightly 98.

I'll try to update if it starts happening again today.

Have had this happen today. Also some other (idk if related) crashes trying to navigate bookmarks, but those sent reports.

I'm getting a similar error after updating firefox-developer-edition from 97.0b2-1 to 97.0b3-1 on Arch Linux:

Thanks! bug 1750017 comment 0 found the same regressing bug.

Which desktop environment are you using?

System information:

Operating System: Arch Linux (64 bit)
Kernel Version:  5.16.0-arch1
X Server Release:  12101003
X Window Manager:  awesome
Video Card:  Intel Open Source Technology Center Mesa DRI Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000 (IVB GT2)
Driver Version:  3.0 Mesa 21.3.4

I can confirm that I can reproduce the issue by attempting to move a tab to another window (although that's not what I was doing the 2 times Firefox crashed before).

Is there still a need for running mozregression?

No, bug 1750017 comment 0 has the precise regression range.
