Mitigation for a GC Stress race after an inline pinvoke - #38246
Merged

Conversation
In the post-call part of a pinvoke inline call frame, it's not safe to start a stress mode GC in the window between checking `g_TrapReturningThreads` and the call to `CORINFO_HELP_STOP_FOR_GC`. The call instruction is already getting special treatement, but there may be other instructions between the check and call. Instead of trying to pattern match them all, suppress GC stress if `g_TrapReturningThreads` is true, the thread is in cooperative mode, and there's an active inline call frame. Closes dotnet#37236.

I was thinking the same thing. Will try it as a follow-up. |

We shouldn't need this anymore as the case it protects against should be covered by the new check added in dotnet#38246.
