I faced this problem during Bug 946720 development. In the past same problem was fixed by Bug 862324. But it is only for deprecated texture.

Deprecated texture's problem was actually fixed by Bug 915869.
Assignee: nobody → sotaro.ikeda.g
Status: NEW → ASSIGNED
The problem is that GrallocTextureHostOGL calls PGrallocBufferParent::Send__delete__() after GrallocBufferActor deletion.
There are the following ways to fix the problem.
- [1] Change GrallocBufferActor as reference counted and GrallocTextureHostOGL does not directly call PGrallocBufferParent::Send__delete__().
- [2] GrallocTextureHostOGL forget a pointer to GrallocBufferActor when GrallocBufferActor is destroyed by IPC error.

[1] is ideal way to fix the problem. But the change becomes relatively large. It might be better to put off [1] to MozSurface implementation. [2] is not a better way, but relatively easy to implement. [2] is same way as in  Bug 915869 for deprecated texture.
This is a hacky fix. Confirmed that problem in bug 946720 is fixed by the patch. 
In near future, MozSurface should fix the problem correctly.
