[Linux] Game doesn't exit cleanly

Open MisterrrX opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Your system information

  • System information from steam (Steam -> Help -> System Information) in a gist:
  • Have you checked for system updates? Yes
  • Are you using the latest stable video driver available for your system? Yes
  • Have you verified the game files? Yes

Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

The game process doesn't end when closing Dota 2 from the exit button in the top right corner. Manually stopping the game via steam is required.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Open Dota
  2. Close Dota by clicking the exit button in the top right corner --> Game process doesn't end on its own

Also crashes when entering quit in the console.

The issue, at face value, seems innocuous but causes several problems:

  • Restarting the client will take a huge amount of time (in my case, almost 1min) waiting for crash dumps to be uploaded. So the restart + reconnect workflow to fix issues while in a game will directly affect gameplay, specially if the opposing team doesn't respect pauses (which is often the case)
  • (Possibly related) Vulkan shaders get downloaded/recompiled again
  • (Possibly related) Steam cloud configs get out of sync regularly
  • OS crash handlers (like abrt) will get spammed with lots of crash dumps. Same goes for OS logs (like systemd's journal)

This was fixed a while ago, thanks.

Did it get fixed? I'm still getting crashes. Fedora 40, kernel 6.11.8, amdgpu, KDE Plasma 6.2.3 (Wayland)
