Instead of unwrap()ing the calloop insert_source calls in register_deadline_timer, handle errors explicitly. If the ping source registration fails after the timer was already inserted, roll back by removing the timer to avoid a source leak. This fixes a panic seen on FreeBSD where fd number reuse causes the second insert_source call to return IoError(AlreadyExists), crashing the compositor session.

Yea I dunno about this. Sure we can add a check to avoid the panic, but I would like someone to get to the bottom of it and fix it at the right place |

I am open for any suggestion how to best handle this. If you need me to try something, just ask. :-) |
