[raiguard][1.1.104][Linux] Game freezes when toggling steam overlay or getting a steam achievement after mod change

[eam]

I believe I have a reproduction. I can't test directly because I don't have a way to re-obtain the achievement but I'm able to verify that the Steam/ubuntu12_32/gameoverlayui process fails to run after making seemingly any change to included mods.

Together with the info I observed in 116486 (that this process services the unix socket in question) this *should* reproduce the bug whenever an achievement is earned.

So:

1) Change mods
2) Observe gameoverlayui fail to run

Code: Select all

$ ps -ef|grep overlay
eam      16102 23320  0 22:20 pts/40   00:00:00 [gameoverlayui] <defunct>
eam      16103 23320  0 22:20 pts/40   00:00:00 [gameoverlayui] <defunct>
eam      16137 23320  0 22:20 pts/40   00:00:00 [gameoverlayui] <defunct>
eam      16322 30690  0 22:20 pts/37   00:00:00 grep --colour=auto overlay

These defunct processes are only seen immediately after changing a mod. Restarting the game again seems to work around it.

3) Obtain an achievement, causing a write to the socket that *should* be read by gameoverlayui -- but which instead will block.

Fixed overlay hanging in some games on macOS and Linux after a game restarts itself.

Please update your steam clients and this issue should be resolved!

Hurray for artificial deprecation on Steam's part, 10.14 and prior will just have to exit after each mod swap ig.
