Description (last modified by andrew_b) (diff)

I posted https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1639016 but duplicate it here too.
I get lots of crashes when returning to mc panels from terminal by pressing Ctrl-O.

comment:4 Changed 5 years ago by andrew_b

Thanks.
Please describe step-by-step how to reproduce this bug.

comment:5 Changed 5 years ago by nerijus

I often leave subshell opened (Ctrl-O). If I leave the terminal tab with mc for a while, then come back and press Ctrl-O in order to get back mc panels, it often crashes. It usually does not crash if I don't change the terminal tab.

comment:6 Changed 5 years ago by andrew_b

I do the same many times in a day. I never got such crashes.

#6  dialog_change_screen_size () at dialog-switch.c:374

This is strange. This means than SIGWINCH was received (the terminal window was resized). But window resize should not crash mc in any case.

I'm unable to reproduce this bug.

comment:7 Changed 5 years ago by nerijus

I use https://github.com/asbru-cm/asbru-cm as a terminal emulator. Could probably be related to it. Is it possible to get some info from the coredump?

comment:8 Changed 5 years ago by andrew_b

Well, I used asbru-cm for several days and dind't get any crash.

comment:9 Changed 5 years ago by nerijus

I updated asbru-cm and did not get the crash yet too. I used version 5.0.0 before. mc usually crashed when there were lots of files in a directory and it took quite a time for mc to scan them.

comment:10 Changed 5 years ago by atan

I'm facing the same problem with Asbru CM (the latest 5.1.0) on Debian 9.5. MC segfaults very often after Ctrl-O.

comment:11 Changed 5 years ago by nerijus

I've just got a segfault on the newest asbru and mc too.

comment:12 Changed 5 years ago by atan

Forgot to mention, it also happens after mc editor exit.

Would you please test the attached patch?

comment:14 Changed 5 years ago by nerijus

Just got a crash (with patch), but not when returning to mc by Ctrl-O, but by just doing nothing - I found mc crashed when returned to the terminal tab:
