-Subject: [PATCH] os: make sure the clientsWritable fd_set is initialized
- before use
-
-In WaitForSomething(), the fd_set clientsWritable may be used unitialized when
-the boolean AnyClientsWriteBlocked is set in the WakeupHandler(). This leads to
-a crash in FlushAllOutput() after x11proto's commit
-2c94cdb453bc641246cc8b9a876da9799bee1ce7.
-
-The problem did not manifest before because both the XFD_SIZE and the maximum
-number of clients were set to 256. As the connectionTranslation table was
-initalized for the 256 clients to 0, the test on the index not being 0 was
-aborting before dereferencing the client #0.
-
-As of commit 2c94cdb453bc641246cc8b9a876da9799bee1ce7 in x11proto, the XFD_SIZE
-got bumped to 512. This lead the OutputPending fd_set to have any fd above 256
-to be uninitialized which in turns lead to reading an index after the end of
-the ConnectionTranslation table. This index would then be used to find the
-client corresponding to the fd marked as pending writes and would also result
-to an out-of-bound access which would usually be the fatal one.
-
-Fix this by zeroing the clientsWritable fd_set at the beginning of
-WaitForSomething(). In this case, the bottom part of the loop, which would
-indirectly call FlushAllOutput, will not do any work but the next call to
-select will result in the execution of the right codepath. This is exactly what
-we want because we need to know the writable clients before handling them. In
-the end, it also makes sure that the fds above MaxClient are initialized,
-preventing the crash in FlushAllOutput().
-
-Thanks to everyone involved in tracking this one down!
