            Bug ID: 31303
           Summary: attach calls python hooks which can crash gdb
           Product: gdb
           Version: 13.1
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: remote
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: grazfather at gmail dot com

stacktrace

On GDB 13.2, when debugging a target using `target extended-remote` with a
continue hook setup which tries to get the selected frame, when I `attach 1`,
this hook is called and gdb crashes with a failed assertion.

../../gdb/thread.c:85: internal-error: inferior_thread: Assertion
`current_thread_ != nullptr' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,

This hook does not seem to be called when I attach to a local process (by pid).

Stack trace is attached.

I reproduce with a blackmagic probe connected to a tty.

.gdbinit:

source hook_continue.py
target extended-remote /dev/cu.usbmodel72AE15F41
monitor tpwr enable
monitor swdp_scan
attach 1

hook_continue.py:

def f(_):
    gdb.selected_frame()
                                                                               
                                                    gdb.events.cont.connect(f)
