Emacs daemon crashes when scrolling through a buffer. I believe it
happens when buffer is trying to display Arabic letters that are in my
mail summary buffer. I used "git bisect" and found that this is the
first "bad" commit:


    commit 30a7ee505aca3cc285699bae1630a28185519d99

        Fix Arabic shaping when eww/shr fill the text to be rendered

        * src/hbfont.c (hbfont_shape): Don't use DIRECTION if the current
        buffer has bidi reordering disabled.  (Bug#41005)


My Emacs daemon process is managed by systemd and the logs have this
backtrace:

Thanks, but please present the backtrace with the symbolic data: file name, function name, and line number information.  It is basically impossible to work with just the numeric addresses without having access to your system.

The Emacs user manual describes how to obtain the symbolic data in the "Crashing" node.

Also, I wonder how you came to be affected by that change.  Did you by any chance set bidi-display-reordering to nil in your buffers?

Also, please tell the version of HarfBuzz you have installed, because it looks like the crash happened inside HarfBuzz.

Yes, about four years ago I set bidi-display-reordering nil in my Emacs
init files. Now it seems to me that I used a wrong variable for what I
wanted to do. I should have set bidi-paragraph-direction left-to-right
which I did now.

It looks like Emacs is not crashing anymore so this was all my mistake.
Thanks for mentioning bidi-display-reordering. I'm closing this bug.

Thanks.

I'd still like to know the version of HarfBuzz that you have, though, as it shouldn't have crashed for this scenario.
