gnome3 desktop with an active online account configured (gmail, only chat enabled) makes the gnome-shell crash every 10 minutes or so. So setting severity to major. This is accountservice 0.6.18 in debian sid. Looked at the git log but haven't seen anything that looked related in newer versions. I only have a picture of the backtrace taken from the phone: https://p.twimg.com/AtMuxj1CAAAqnB3.jpg:large
This code path is run when new sessions are registered. Do you think it could be triggered by someone ssh'ing to your machine? Or perhaps a remote X session via XDMCP? I guess it's possible the manager is already freed by the time the result completes. That would explain a crash. The only thing is, the new_session object takes a reference on the manager object, itself, so the manager should stay alive. If it's not, then that suggests the manager may be getting unrefed when it shouldn't be.

I've upgraded to 0.6.21, am running gnome-shell under gdb and haven't been able to reproduce it but it could be just luck.
okay, let me know how it goes.
Created attachment 61928 [details] backtrace with symbols Here my backtrace. There isn't any attempt for a remote access to the machine. If you need more information, please tell me.
okay, so i have a theory on what's happening here. Somehow a session is getting created and destroyed very quickly. If the removal happens within a few milliseconds after a request is made to consolekit before consolekit responds, then the new_session object will get freed early and the consolekit reply that comes later will access freed memory.
so the correct fix for this is to pass a cancellable to all console_kit_session_proxy_new_sync calls, and cancel that cancellable in unload_new_session. If I came up with that patch would one of you be willing to try it to verify the theory?
bugzilla attachments aren't seemingly working at the moment so i've pushed the (untested) patch here (on the 50112 branch): http://cgit.freedesktop.org/accountsservice/patch/?id=5a0de5922bffa234b5daae8e48e591530f5f7edd I'd appreciate feedback.
The patch doesn't fix the issue. There is still a crash.

Hi everyone, I am running Debian/sid and I see this problem, too. But I don't think it has to do with sessions or whatever, because I can reliably trigger it by simply plugging or unplugging my power chord?!? What does this have with account services? Norbert
FWIW, I'm having the same problem. Machine is Core i7 2700K desktop, 64-bit kernel but 32-bit Debian/unstable userland, stable power, no other users except one running nothing but xbmc from gnome-shell. And gnome-shell restarts (glitching the display) a few times per hour. I don't know what's up, but it's kind of annoying May 16 15:29:43 localhost kernel: gnome-shell[7705]: segfault at 38 ip 00000000ede5c3cb sp 00000000ffaa3d30 error 4 in

Ping?! Anybody working on this? PS: I'm willing to test your patches and send you the information you request to finally fix this.
(In reply to comment #5) > Somehow a session is getting created and destroyed very quickly. I wonder whether this could be a non-interactive session, like cron?

That may explain it, no segfault since this morning after upgrading toaccountsservice built without systemd support.

Well it happened again without systemd support, and looking at logs i can't see anything related to cron. Same crash as before but this time called from on_get_x11_display_finished https://twitter.com/rmistaken/status/210270942394449920/photo/1/large Rebuilding with patch at comment #7 + without systemd support and let's see.

Still crash somewhere inside cancellable.

Created attachment 62894 [details] [review] lib: manage pending consolekit calls with cancellable Pending NewSession objects can disappear just as quickly as they appear in response to ConsoleKit signals. If we're in the middle of talking to ConsoleKit when an object disappears and is subsequently freed, then we'll still try to access it from the reply callback. This commit cancels any pending messages to the consolekit daemon, when the session goes away.
Daniel, can you try the latest patch?
Ray, thanks very much. I tried your patch 45d55f7f on my Lenovo X220 (Debian Sid/Linux 3.5-rc2) and it has been running without the segfault that I could reliably trigger by opening/closing the lid or plugging/unplugging the AC adapter. I have previously commented on the Debian bug 673185 in comment #108.
(In reply to comment #18) > Daniel, can you try the latest patch? Ray, your patch also fixed the segfault on the system where I experienced this bug [1]. Please note that the system is no notebook and a normal desktop and it was enough to open the activities overview and chose applications. [1] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=677088
Alright, I've pushed the patch. Closing bug, but please reopen if problems resurface.
As commented on the GNOME ticket [1], I experienced a problem even with the patch attached. Additionally I also got another problem with GDM [2], but I do not know if it is related. [1] https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=679604#c3 [2] https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=681826

*** Bug 55843 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
From the other bug: [reply] [-] Comment 1 Paul Menzel 2012-10-10 10:04:06 EDT Here is a description from Josselin on how to reproduce this. »the crash in unstable is 100% reproducible with the following : have 2 sessions open, open a 3rd one, close it, use the login prompt to switch to one of the first twos«
The g_cancellable_cancel() docs say: "The convention within gio is that cancelling an asynchronous operation causes it to complete asynchronously. That is, if you cancel the operation from the same thread in which it is running, then the operation's GAsyncReadyCallback will not be invoked until the application returns to the main loop." So I think we have this sequence of events: * unload_new_session() calls g_cancellable_cancel() * unload_new_session() calls g_slice_free (., new_session) * back to the main loop * asychronous operation completes * user_data == new_session points to freed memory I don't think there's much alternative to refcounting the new_session (either with a real refcount, or with a count of pending calls) so that the struct isn't freed until there are no longer any pending calls with it as user_data.
Created attachment 69424 [details] [review] the patch that I'm trying out I'm trying out this patch against Debian's accountsservice 0.6.21-6, but I can't reproduce this crash on-demand (it sometimes happens when I resume from suspend). Comments/testing welcome.

Ugh, interesting. It makes a lot of sense, though, in retrospect.
Although I’m not fond of this “manual reference counting”, the patch definitely fixes the crash for me.
okay i've pushed this.
