Currently, it is not possible to correctly iterate over the replies of
some requests. For example, the list of XIDeviceInfo returned by
the XIQueryDevice request from xinput2 is read as garbage starting from
the second entry.
The culprits are the _sizeof() used by the iterators. In the above case:
int
xcb_input_xi_device_info_sizeof (const void *_buffer /**< */)
{
char *xcb_tmp = (char *)_buffer;
[...]
unsigned int xcb_block_len = 0;
[...]
xcb_block_len += sizeof(xcb_input_xi_device_info_t);
xcb_tmp += xcb_block_len;
/* name */
xcb_block_len += (((_aux->name_len + 3) / 4) * 4) * sizeof(char);
xcb_tmp += xcb_block_len;
[...]
}
The problem here is that `xcb_block_len` is not zero'd right above the
`/* name */` comment, causing `xcb_tmp` to be incremented by
`sizeof(xcb_input_xi_device_info_t)` twice. The returned size is too
large.

About libxcb
============
libxcb provides an interface to the X Window System protocol, which
replaces the current Xlib interface. It has several advantages over
Xlib, including:
- size: small, simple library, and lower memory footprint
- latency hiding: batch several requests and wait for the replies later
- direct protocol access: interface and protocol correspond exactly
- proven thread support: transparently access XCB from multiple threads
- easy extension implementation: interfaces auto-generated from XML-XCB
Xlib can also use XCB as a transport layer, allowing software to make
requests and receive responses with both, which eases porting to XCB.
However, client programs, libraries, and toolkits will gain the most
benefit from a native XCB port.
Please report any issues you find to the freedesktop.org bug tracker,

Discussion about XCB occurs on the XCB mailing list:
