dix: reset pScreen->root to NULL when root window is deleted.
From: Dave Airlie <airlied@linux.ie> We were seeing a crash in the FreeAllResources codepath, running valgrind revealed this, ==12536== Invalid read of size 4 ==12536== at 0x810BCAB: DeliverPropertyEvent (rrproperty.c:33) ==12536== by 0x80958A4: TraverseTree (window.c:227) ==12536== by 0x809593E: WalkTree (window.c:255) ==12536== by 0x810BC66: RRDeliverPropertyEvent (rrproperty.c:53) ==12536== by 0x810BD5D: RRDeleteProperty.clone.0 (rrproperty.c:76) ==12536== by 0x810BD98: RRDeleteAllOutputProperties (rrproperty.c:88) ==12536== by 0x810A36E: RROutputDestroyResource (rroutput.c:407) ==12536== by 0x808DF4E: FreeClientResources (resource.c:859) ==12536== by 0x808E005: FreeAllResources (resource.c:876) ==12536== by 0x8062300: main (main.c:305) ==12536== Address 0x46ba8ac is 4 bytes inside a block of size 164 free'd ==12536== at 0x40057F6: free (vg_replace_malloc.c:325) ==12536== by 0x8087F1F: _dixFreeObjectWithPrivates (privates.c:357) ==12536== by 0x809832A: DeleteWindow (window.c:926) ==12536== by 0x808DF4E: FreeClientResources (resource.c:859) ==12536== by 0x808E005: FreeAllResources (resource.c:876) ==12536== by 0x8062300: main (main.c:305) Its a use after free on the root window, since we have already deleted it at this point. This patch checks if the window we are destroying is the root window and resets the pointer to NULL if it is.
