Comment 11 Matthew Barnes 2014-08-21 23:30:39 UTC
Stack trace looks a little different, but I think this might be another dupe of bug 1126916.  I'll just reassign it for now so as not to be too hasty.

Something is apparently very wrong with GObject's type registration in RHEL 6.

Comment 12 Matthias Clasen 2014-08-26 19:19:48 UTC
I don't see the commonality - the stacktrace here looks entirely different from the one in 1126916.

Comment 13 Matthias Clasen 2014-09-04 17:53:09 UTC
Ray found this very relevant looking fix that went into glib 2.29 (ie newer than our backport):

Bug 651133 - race condition in GDBusConnection's emit_signal_instance_in_idle_cb (edit)

Comment 14 Matthias Clasen 2014-09-04 18:21:14 UTC
setting devack+ since we have a pretty likely fix

Comment 15 Colin Walters 2014-09-08 19:31:56 UTC
The correct link looks like: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=651133

So looking at that bug, there were several followup fixes.  Matthew, are you going to try backporting them?

How reproducible is this crash?

Yeah, taking a crack at it now.

Comment 17 Colin Walters 2014-09-09 19:49:24 UTC
I'm OK with the updated patches here: http://pkgs.devel.redhat.com/cgit/rpms/glib2/commit/?h=rhel-6.6&id=59e30689e73af14ccbf33caa33e090b9dbe2d07e

The patches are nontrivial, but they're backports of commits that have existed upstream for some time.  An additional mitigating factor is that the patches only affect the GDBus code, which is new with this rebase, and thus nothing else can be using it (yet).
