<pre>Summary:
After upgrade from mesa-17.2.5 to mesa-17.3.0 XOrg fails to start, crashing
with a NULL pointer on mesa, also glmark2 fails with a SIGSEGV due to a NULL
pointer when it reaches the [buffer]
columns=200:interleave=false:update-dispersion=0.9:update-fraction=0.5:update-method=map
test.
Details:
The problem was first introduced on mesa version 17.3.0-rc3 with patch provided
in commit a12ca3b231a6454d8adf5da916af363c321b5f1a, "disk_cache: Fix issue
reading GLSL metadata".
Reverting this patch allows XOrg to start normally and glmark2 to complete all
tests.
A sample stack trace from mesa when glmark2/XOrg fails is as follows:
[desktop] effect=shadow:windows=4: FPS: 991 FrameTime: 1.009 ms
[New Thread 0xb11ff440 (LWP 4764)]
[Thread 0xb09ff440 (LWP 4763) exited]
Thread 1 "glmark2" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

code: if (strcmp(b->Uniforms[j].Name, index_name) == 0) {
(gdb) print b
$1 = (gl_uniform_block *) 0xafd5f020
(gdb) print j
$2 = 37
(gdb) print b->Uniforms[j].IndexName
$3 = 0x0
(gdb) print index_name
$4 = 0x0
(gdb) print b->Name
$5 = 0x2bdd80 ""
As it can be seen the strcmp fails with a SIGSEGV when de-referencing either
index_name or b->Uniforms[j].Name, but the problem is introduced by the
identified patch above.
Could it be that num_keys is zero sometimes while there is at least one
cache_key structure available?
How to reproduce:
glmark2 - To reproduce the glmark2 issue upgrade the mesa version with X
already running and then run glmark2 after the mesa upgrade.
XOrg - Install glmark2 and reboot or restart X.</pre>
