From: Ian Romanick <ian.d.roman...@intel.com> Each of the DRI, DRI2, and DRISW backends contain code like the following in their create-context routine:
if (shareList) { pcp_shared = (struct dri2_context *) shareList; shared = pcp_shared->driContext; } This assumes that the glx_context *shareList is actually the correct derived type. However, if shareList was created as an indirect-rendering context, it will not be the expected type. As a result, shared will contain garbage. This garbage will be passed to the driver, and the driver will probably segfault. This can be observed with the following GLX code: ctx0 = glXCreateContext(dpy, visinfo, NULL, False); ctx1 = glXCreateContext(dpy, visinfo, ctx0, True); Create-context is the only case where this occurs. All other cases where a context is passed to the backend, it is the 'this' pointer (i.e., we got to the backend by call something from ctx->vtable). To work around this, check that the shareList->vtable->destroy method is the same as the destroy method of the expected type. We could also check that shareList->vtable matches the vtable or by adding a "tag" to glx_context to identify the derived type. NOTE: This is a candidate for the 7.11 branch.
