The server sometimes crashes when I resume my swsusp-suspended Linux system. If I don't use xv before the crash (i.e. don't watch videos or the like), the server will not crash.

This happens with gentoo's xorg-server-1.3.0.0 build, here is the -version output:

X Window System Version 1.3.0

I have built a debugging server to find out where exactly it crashes. The crash is in xf86XVRegetVideo, which I verbosified like so:

static int
xf86XVRegetVideo(XvPortRecPrivatePtr portPriv)
{
  RegionRec WinRegion;
  RegionRec ClipRegion;
  BoxRec WinBox;
  ScreenPtr pScreen;
  int ret = Success;
  Bool clippedAway = FALSE;

  xf86Msg(X_INFO, "xf86XVRegetVideo: portPriv %p\n", portPriv);
  xf86Msg(X_INFO, "xf86XVRegetVideo: portPriv->pDraw %p\n", portPriv->pDraw);

  pScreen = portPriv->pDraw->pScreen;

  xf86Msg(X_INFO, "xf86XVRegetVideo: pScreen %p\n", pScreen);

  xf86XVUpdateCompositeClip(portPriv);

  xf86Msg(X_INFO, "xf86XVRegetVideo: check 1\n");

  /* translate the video region to the screen */
  WinBox.x1 = portPriv->pDraw->x + portPriv->drw_x;
  WinBox.y1 = portPriv->pDraw->y + portPriv->drw_y;
  WinBox.x2 = WinBox.x1 + portPriv->drw_w;
  WinBox.y2 = WinBox.y1 + portPriv->drw_h;

  /* clip to the window composite clip */
  REGION_INIT(pScreen, &WinRegion, &WinBox, 1);
  REGION_NULL(pScreen, &ClipRegion);
  REGION_INTERSECT(pScreen, &ClipRegion, &WinRegion, portPriv->pCompositeClip);

  xf86Msg(X_INFO, "xf86XVRegetVideo: check 2\n");

  /* that's all if it's totally obscured */
  if(!REGION_NOTEMPTY(pScreen, &ClipRegion)) {
	clippedAway = TRUE;
	goto CLIP_VIDEO_BAILOUT;
  }

  if(portPriv->AdaptorRec->flags & VIDEO_INVERT_CLIPLIST) {
     REGION_SUBTRACT(pScreen, &ClipRegion, &WinRegion, &ClipRegion);
  }

  xf86Msg(X_INFO, "xf86XVRegetVideo: check 3\n");

  ret = (*portPriv->AdaptorRec->GetVideo)(portPriv->pScrn,
			portPriv->vid_x, portPriv->vid_y,
			WinBox.x1, WinBox.y1,
			portPriv->vid_w, portPriv->vid_h,
			portPriv->drw_w, portPriv->drw_h,
			&ClipRegion, portPriv->DevPriv.ptr,
			portPriv->pDraw);

  if(ret == Success)
	portPriv->isOn = XV_ON;

  xf86Msg(X_INFO, "xf86XVRegetVideo: check 4\n");

CLIP_VIDEO_BAILOUT:

  xf86Msg(X_INFO, "xf86XVRegetVideo: check 5\n");

  if((clippedAway || (ret != Success)) && portPriv->isOn == XV_ON) {
	(*portPriv->AdaptorRec->StopVideo)(
		portPriv->pScrn, portPriv->DevPriv.ptr, FALSE);
	portPriv->isOn = XV_PENDING;
  }

  /* This clip was copied and only good for one shot */
  if(!portPriv->FreeCompositeClip)
     portPriv->pCompositeClip = NULL;

  REGION_UNINIT(pScreen, &WinRegion);
  REGION_UNINIT(pScreen, &ClipRegion);

  xf86Msg(X_INFO, "xf86XVRegetVideo: EXIT\n");

  return ret;
}

On the next crash it told me:

(II) xf86XVRegetVideo: portPriv 0x711ac0
(II) xf86XVRegetVideo: portPriv->pDraw (nil)

So, portPriv->pDraw is NULL.

So far for the investigation part. Now I need someone who knows the code well enough to figure why the NULL pointer turns up and how to fix this.

Cheers,
