RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
When moving large window beyond approx. 16000x800 size, rendering is laggy, part of window panel is black and sometimes gnome-shell crash occurs.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-shell-3.28.2-1.el7.x86_64
How reproducible:
laggy rendering always
gnome-shell crash sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. open Ghostscript previewer window: $ gs test.ps
or just: $ gs
2. resize it to beyond 16000x800 size
3. move the window
Actual results:
When resizing beyond approx. 16000 width size, window panel beyond that size become black and following messages are printed into systemd journal:
gnome-shell[8865]: Failed to allocate mask texture: Failed to create texture 2d due to size/format constraints
When moving window, rendering is laggy and sometimes gnome-shell crash occurs and it is restarted.
For the first time, gnome-shell was killed by SIGABRT:
org.gnome.Shell.desktop[7934]: [xcb] Unknown sequence number while processing queue
org.gnome.Shell.desktop[7934]: [xcb] Most likely this is a multi-threaded client and XInitThreads has not been called
org.gnome.Shell.desktop[7934]: [xcb] Aborting, sorry about that.
org.gnome.Shell.desktop[7934]: gnome-shell: xcb_io.c:259: poll_for_event: Assertion `!xcb_xlib_threads_sequence_lost' failed.
org.gnome.Shell.desktop[7934]: == Stack trace for context 0x277d0a0 ==
abrt-hook-ccpp[8323]: Process 7934 (gnome-shell) of user 1000 killed by SIGABRT - dumping core
For the second time, gnome-shell was killed by SIGSEGV:
kernel: gnome-shell[8329]: segfault at 7f0ecd3cb000 ip 00007f0f545b66aa sp 00007ffdfae7f830 error 4 in i965_dri.so[7f0f544b0000+91f000]
abrt-hook-ccpp[8862]: Process 8329 (gnome-shell) of user 1000 killed by SIGSEGV - dumping core
For next approx. 3 times crash did not happen.
Expected results:
No crash should happen. Rendering should be smooth and probably some constraint to window size should be set.
