[Tracker] crash on quit via ProcessController

[diver]

Tracker will crash or lockup if you quit it via ProcessController. Steps to reproduce:

1. Click Leaf Menu. 2. Configure Leaf menu. 3. Click "Add..." button. 4. Close Configure Leaf menu, but don't close BFilePanel. 5. Quit Tracker via PorcesController.

Tested under vmvare with r19802. Back trace will follow.

If I close the "Configure Leaf Menu" window, the file panel is closed, too. Anyway, I can't reproduce this bug at all.

BTW are you both (Diver, Marcus) building Haiku under Linux? Does it happen on real hardware, emulation (which one), or both?

[diver]

I've used precompiled image from here http://haikuhost.com/housestrain/ I think it was build under lunux.

[diver]

Oh and i tested it under vmware.

[marcusoverhagen]

Vmware images build under Linux with gcc 2.9*, tested with vmware player for Linux. The crashing is very random, it doesn't always happen.

[marcusoverhagen]

I'll upload an image for a reproduceable crash.

Do nothing else, directly after start:

1) In Deskbar menu, chose Application / ProcessController and install it in the Deskbar

2) From the Deskbar, use ProcessController - "Quit an Application" to quit Tracker, it will crash in "typeinfo name for _BAlertFilter_

Sometimes bootscript crashes, too. I've seen it once with this image.

The image is r20012 but I modified the build script to not include the vmware graphics driver, so it's running with vesa.

Can't reproduce it anymore, fixed?

Maybe it is a different bug, but I tried twice and Tracker crahsed twice when quitting it from ProcessController:

I've been doing this a lot when debugging Tracker. Did ctrl-c and processcontroller->quit->Tracker hundreds of times. Never got a crash. Must have been fixed in the mean time.

[anevilyak]

Did you try on gcc4 by any chance? Most of the Tracker crash on quit errors I've heard were from people using those builds.

[aldeck]

Hmm, i don't have a gcc4 build at hand, can you check?

[anevilyak]

I can try, but I honestly haven't seen that particular bug here myself...I'm not on an SMP system here though, so that may be part of it. Urias might be able to, assuming he sees this, I remember him reporting that problem.

[umccullough]

I'll give it another try shortly.

Most of the time, when using a GCC4 build, it crashes at shutdown/restart. I can't say I've ever manually quit it intentionally and checked the backtrace.

Tracker crash on quit r25947 GCC4

[umccullough]

I attached a backtrace from the crash when quitting Tracker on a GCC4 build of r25947 here.

Note it dies in a very slightly different place.

[umccullough]

FWIW, the gcc4 Tracker crash on quit issue I was having before seems to be gone since r26383 now.

Since this bug is still closed, this is just for information only.
