Created attachment 26950 [details] simple test-case demonstrating the deadlock. When using the new socket-handoff functionality I often encounter deadlocks inside of xcb. A lot of discussion happend on the xcb mailinglist, but so far nobody was able to explain what exactly happens, nore what the problem is. It could be I am doing something wrong, but since there is no documentation at all ... who knows. I tried myself to understand the problem, but my experience with posix/c is quite limited :-/ Attached is a simple single-threaded test-case which triggers the problem. It would be really great if this could be fixed soon, Java would like to use self-generated protocol to speed up its rendering sooner than later ;)
