    Description

      Attached is a test case that crashes due to what looks like a race condition in QFontEngineFT::init(..).

      There is a number of things that are present in order for this crash to happen:

      • The "label" Text element needs to have an HTML tag at the end (in this case, <tt>)
      • The "codeLine" Text element needs to have the FontLoader included
      • The model is populated asynchronously when we set the "code" property on it (the timer in CodeModel emulates the original application, where we pass the code through a webview)

      The interval on the timer in CodeModel.cpp might need to be modified in order to have it crash. For me, it crashes with an interval between 0 and 45 ms.

      It crashes both with 5.3.0-beta as well as with the stable git branch. The original application also crashes with 5.2.1, although I do not get the test application to do that.

      It does no longer crash if I set the environment variable QSG_RENDER_LOOP to "basic".

      In the rare case that it actually runs all the way through, at shutdown I get a crash in QFreetypeFace::cleanup instead:
