The bug triggers when _workspace_show calls tree_close_internal and
old == old_focus. Ie, when the old workspace was empty and needs to be
closed but then is accessed as output_push_sticky_windows's argument:
Breakpoint 1, output_push_sticky_windows (to_focus=0x55555589c8a0) at ../../i3/src/output.c:102
102 con_move_to_workspace(current, visible_ws, true, false, current != to_focus->parent);
(gdb) print con_exists(to_focus)
$1 = false
The access violation can also be prevented by checking if
con_exists(old_focus) but it shouldn't be necessary: the old_focus
container can only be killed when it is an empty workspace.
With --enable-sanitizers this causes i3 to exit but with
--disable-sanitizers the access violation doesn't reliably cause a crash
and the con_move_to_workspace call continues with:
(gdb) print current != to_focus->parent
$2 = 1
Since current->type is CT_FLOATING_CON and to_focus->type is
CT_WORKSPACE, in this specific case ignore_focus would always be true.
So, in this case, passing NULL instead of old_focus to
output_push_sticky_windows doesn't change the behaviour of i3.
Fixes#3075.
i3bar's handle_button is modified to also handle XCB_BUTTON_RELEASE
events. During these button release events, only custom commands are
checked to avoid sending multiple workspace ipc messages.
The way this patch is implemented will allow to assign a custom command
for both the press and release of the same button:
bar {
...
bindsym buttonX exec command1
bindsym --release buttonX exec command2
}
Fixes#3068.
Issue #3049 describes a case where terminating i3 by means of SIGTERM
causes it to leak the runtime directory and all its contents. There are
multiple issues at play: first, any cleanup handlers registered via
atexit are never invoked when a signal terminates the program (see
atexit(3)). Hence, the log SHM log cleanup performed in i3_exit is not
invoked in that case. Second, compared to the shutdown path for the
'exit' command, we do not unlink the UNIX domain socket we create,
causing it to be leaked as well. Third, a handler for SIGTERM is not
registered at all despite handle_signal claiming to be the handler for
all 'Term' signals.
This change addresses all three problems and results in a graceful exit
including cleanup to happen when we receive a signal with the default
action 'Term'. It addresses issue #3049.
We need to set dont_map => 1 on the sync window to prevent an endless loop.
Further, t/219-ipc-window-focus.t made assumptions about windows being named
incrementally, and that assumption is broken by the sync window opened by the
first sync_with_i3 call from open_window, so use the more reliable ->name.
1). Add one regression test in 167-workspace_layout.t:
- Get a fresh workspace
- Set the layout to something
- Create windows
- Try to switch to another layout
- Check if successful
- Repeat for all 12 possible transitions
2). Add another regression test in 167-workspace_layout.t:
- Check that the command 'layout toggle split' works regardless of
what layout we're using
This way, when changing focus between outputs, the directional focus
command will focus the focused window within the parent container that
is next in the given direction.
Previously, the next window of the given direction was focused which is
Inconsistent with changing focus inside the same output.
Fixes#1160.
Applied for:
1. '[...] focus' for a floating container raises it to the top.
2. Focusing a window through a focus event raises it to the top.
Fixes#2572
canonicalize_output_name allowed the "primary" special output name to
be canonicalized, thus converting it to the name of whatever output
was the primary output at the time. This caused settings
(specifically, i3bar output and tray_output settings) to be stored as
specific output names, instead of the intended special names whose
referred output may change as the system's configuration (i.e. current
primary output) changes.
Add a check to canonicalize_output_name to return the name as-is if it
is the special name "primary".
This fixes a regression introduced in commit
4e88c10564ca5366c2578908f62ec56625a26718: when attempting to move the
single child of a container in the direction of another output, i3
would move the window to the output, despite the window not being at
the edge of its output, instead of moving it to its parent container.
The bug occurred because the check for moving containers across
outputs with non-default workspace layouts (issue #1603) did not
actually verify that the moved window lies at the edge of the
workspace, despite what its comment said.
Fixes issue #2466.
Makes "assign [<criteria>] workspace number <number>" work in the same
manner as "move to workspace number <number>" instead of assigning the
window to a workspace named "number <number>".
config.spec is modified to expect a 'number' string and an extra
argument is used in cfg_assign.
For workspaces that don't exist yet, workspace_get is used as a
fallback. This also allows the user to assign to "<number> <workspace>"
eg "2: work" and the full name will be used if workspace number 2
doesn't exist yet.
Fixes#2590.
This way you can assign the test windows to an empty workspace to avoid
interacting with them (when xvfb-run is not an option):
assign [instance="i3test"] workspace testing
I previously tried to fix the check, but could only come up with a fix which
required removing our module pre-loading, which makes the tests considerably
more expensive. Instead, let’s just remove the check.
