[PATCH v2] present: fix freed pointer access

When a vblank has been marked as aborted, it's going to be free in the
flip_notify function when stopped. We can't notify it after it's
stopped because the pointer is invalid.

I also want to test it later this week when I've finished some other work,
but for now:

So I have it running now without problems for a few days. I tested it once
with CS:GO and Hitman and there were no crashes. I can't test the suspend
recovery because this is currently not working due to a problem in KWin.

Ok, I just got a failing assert in xwl_present_flips_stop with the patch
when opening a context menu in Steam. Seems the xwl_present_flips_stop call
is coming in too late now after the presenting window has already been
changed.

[...]

If I read bug 107314 correctly, the crash occurs after the window has
been destroyed, so what about that other patch:

https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/247271/

** plus ** this patch below (just copied for testing purpose), does it
fix th your crash?

Subject: [PATCH xserver] xwayland: ignore sync callback if window is destroyed

If the window is destroyed, there is no need to send the vblank notify
event.

This should avoid a crash in present_vblank_notify()

Sorry, that's unrelated, please ignore my last post...

So I agree with Lionel's v2 patch
(https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/246007/) to fix the issue
with the use-after-free.

Ok, I just got a failing assert in xwl_present_flips_stop with the patch when opening a context menu in Steam.
Seems the xwl_present_flips_stop call is coming in too late now after the presenting window has already been
changed.
I fail to understand how that can be related to Lionel's patch though.

The patch simply moves `present_vblank_notify()` before
`present_wnmd_flips_stop()` in `present_wnmd_flip_notify()` whereas
the assertion failure comes from an eniterly different code path, down
from `present_clip_notify()` which calls
`present_wnmd_check_flip_window()` which does:

```
325 if (flip_pending) {
326 if (!present_wnmd_check_flip(flip_pending->crtc,
flip_pending->window, flip_pending->pixmap,
327 flip_pending->sync_flip, NULL, 0, 0, NULL))
328 present_wnmd_set_abort_flip(window);
329 } else if (flip_active) {
330 if (!present_wnmd_check_flip(flip_active->crtc,
flip_active->window, flip_active->pixmap,
331 flip_active->sync_flip, NULL,
0, 0, NULL))
332 present_wnmd_flips_stop(window);
333 }
```

`present_wnmd_check_flip()` calls `xwl_present_check_flip2()` which does:

```
424 * Do not flip if there is already another child window doing flips.
425 */
426 if (xwl_window->present_window &&
427 xwl_window->present_window != present_window)
428 return FALSE;
429
```

So here we end up with `assert(xwl_window->present_window == window)`
in `xwl_present_flips_stop()` when `present_wnmd_check_flip()` returns
FALSE, i.e. when `xwl_window->present_window != present_window`.

I'm confused :/

Cheers,
Olivier

the assertion failure comes from an eniterly different code path, down
from `present_clip_notify()` which calls
[...]
I've hit that assertion in xwl_present_flips_stop() as well, but the
backtrace is slightly different, it happened during a
XReparentWindow().

In order to make that email short enough, I've attached how I ended up
to the conclusion that there is a perfectly valid code path that can
lead to xwl_present_flips_stop() with xwl_window->present_window being
NULL and that will cause a crash.

Cheers,
Olivier
