This issue is a regression in xorg server 1.20 (and rc's).

NNTMan 2018-05-15 github

Can you help me reported about this issue to appropriate developers?
I reported about this problem here: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106472
But no one's replied to me.
Maybe I described the problem poorly?
Do you see in the backtrace where the hang are occurred?
Can you add snip with information where stuck are occurred in XWayland ?
Big thanks.

Confirmed, on an up-to-date arch, wayland, nvidia 396.24 system
most likely a mesa issue, running stuff directly from CLI with STEAM_RUNTIME=0 results in

Process 29495 (dota2) of user 1000 dumped core.

Hello @Silur, do you have an optimus setup / is steam running with mesa?

SSilur 2018-05-20 github

but steam itself was not running within optimus/primus

I tested this patch several days and can confirm that with this patch steam client not stuck anymore.
