Bug#902437: xwayland: Firefox crashes Wayland on some web pages
Package: xwayland Version: 2:1.20.0-2 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, My apologies for ruining your day with what looks like a tricky driver bug. I hate debugging such things, myself. I'm marking this "important", because the issue makes me not dare to browse the web: I've had to reboot my system several times a day lately. If you think it should be a lower severity, please downgrade. Also, I made a wild guess at which package to report this issue against, and I am so utterly, comically ignorant of everything in a modern Debian desktop system that I may have guessed wrongly; please reassign if so. I run Debian sid on two different laptops: a Lenovo Thinkpad X220, and a Lenovo Yoga 900. Both use an Intel graphics card or chip. For the past week or two, the X220 has been crashing from time to time. I thought it might be bad memory in the laptop, so I switched to the Yoga. Then the Yoga started crashing. After much headbanging and wailing, I've manged to find way to reproduce the crash. I use Firefox as my web browser, and certain web pages trigger the crash reproducibly. One such web page is here: http://johannesbrodwall.com/2018/06/24/forget-about-clean-code-lets-embrace-compassionate-code/ What happens is that Firefox does not render that page, only updates the page title in the window title, and then becomes unresponsive. Menus don't react in anyway. i can't close the tab or window with Ctrl-W, or by clicking on the window close button. After a few more seconds, the whole desktop stops working, meaning that pressing the capslock key no longer toggles the LED. The mouse cursor may or may not work. If it does work, moving it to the top left corner of the GNOME desktop makes the mouse not work anymore. Also, the desktop does not do the "whoosh" feature of GNOME where it shows all windows on the current virtual desktop, and the "dock" on the left side of the screen. The machine seems to work otherwise: I can log into it via ssh, and run commands on the command line. I can restart gdm3 from the ssh session, but if I log back in, it doesn't work: I get a dark grey screen, no windows, and nothing else for about half a minute, and then it's back to the gdm3 login screen. Logging in as a different user seems to work. There's nothing new in dmesg output, when the crash happens. I've run the in-kernel memtest on the Yoga, and it resports no problems. (I've not bothered to run it on the X220 yet. I can, if it'd be helpful to you.) I reconfigured gdm3 on the Yoga to start Xorg instead of Wayland, and now the web page above works fine in Firefox. No crash.. The webpage renders fine under Wayland using Chromium. I am OK with this workaround, but I assume the bug should be fixed if Wayland is to be the default in Debian. The problem is reproducible for me. If others can reproduce it, it should be doable on any X220, which is, or used to be, a common laptop. I will be keeping mine in storage for a while, so that if there's a need, I can try new package versions to see if they fix the problem.
