          Priority: medium
            Bug ID: 69490
          Assignee: wayland-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
           Summary: SIGSEGV - Text input protocol attempts to post event
                    to dead or dying resource
          Severity: critical
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: ullysses.a.eoff at intel.com
          Hardware: Other
            Status: NEW
           Version: unspecified
         Component: weston
           Product: Wayland

There seems to be a race between a client disconnecting and the text protocol
attempting to post an event to the dying client resource via
wl_text_input_send_language(...).  Various backtraces indicate that the
resource is not always completely destructed before it reaches
wl_resource_post_event(...), but ultimately results in a segmentation fault. 
See attached backtraces for more evidence of this issue.

weston (master) heads/master-0-g4a4704a

The only existing test case, so far, that reproduces this issue is the
efl/shm/EntryCutTest in wayland-fits.  Nonetheless, this appears to be a core
issue unrelated to efl.
