# Check for a race condition where in non-stop mode, the user might
# have a thread other than the main (original) thread selected and use
# the 'detach' command.
#
# As GDB tries to detach it is possible that the main thread might
# exit, the main thread is still running due to non-stop mode.
#
# GDB used to assume that the main thread would always exist when
# processing the detach, clearly this isn't the case, and this
# assumption would lead to assertion failures and segfaults.
#
# Triggering the precise timing is pretty hard, we need the main
# thread to exit after the user has entered the 'detach' command, but
# before GDB enters the detach implementation and stops all threads,
# the window of opportunity for this bug is actually tiny.
#
# However, we can trigger this bug 100% from Python, as GDB's
# event-loop only kicks in once we return from a Python function.
# Thus, if we have a single Python function that causes the main
# thread to exit, and then calls detach GDB will not have a chance to
# handle the main thread exiting before entering the detach code.
