Subject: [PATCH] gdb/remote: fix assertions when attaching in non-stop mode
Date: Thu, 11 Jun 2026 07:36:42 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260611053642.3893794-1-Martin.KOCH@bachmann.info> (raw)

When connecting to a remote target in non-stop mode against a
multi-threaded inferior stopped at raise(SIGSTOP), three internal-error
assertions can fire in sequence:

  remote.c:546: mark_async_event_handler: Assertion 'this->is_async_p ()' failed.
  thread.c:429: set_pending_waitstatus: Assertion 'this->internal_state () ==
                THREAD_INT_STOPPED || ...' failed.
  thread.c:426: set_pending_waitstatus: Assertion '!this->has_pending_waitstatus ()' failed.

The first one is what PR 30630 reports and is fixed with the PR proposed
by Mikhail Terekhov, but with the fix the two other assertions surface:

 * thread.c:429: addressed by reordering set_internal_state / set_state
   to run before set_pending_waitstatus.
 * thread.c:426: addressed by clearing any existing pending wait
   status before installing the new one, when gdbserver delivers
   multiple events for the same thread.
