To allow Thread::exit to be immune from asynchronous exceptions causing corruption of state we introduce a simple async exception delivery deferral mechanism. Note that we still allow async exceptions to become the "pending async exception" so they are not lost (potentially desirable in other usecases), but we defer the delivery of that exception i.e when it is moved from being the "pending async exception" to being the "current pending exception" (which is the exception actually in the process of being propagated).
Testing:
- runtime/Thread/StopAtExit.java combined with logging and debugging hooks to show that exceptions were being deferred
- tiers 1-3
Thanks,
David
