This is reproducible in bughunter on Windows.
It's too bad the original stacks don't have any useful information in them...
Priority: -- → P3
Bughunter reproduces this assertion on Windows and Linux Beta/57, Nightly/58 on attachment 8909139 [details]. If you need, I can attach the crash reports and logs if reproducing on that attachment isn't sufficient.
Though, I think this was fixed in bug 1400701 where the test case is attached. This matches the last time orange factor flagged this bug and when bughunter last reproduced this as well. I think you might mark this fixed.
It looks like these assertions are hitting inside CrashReporter::AnnotateCrashReport(). Maybe another thread is also trying to write to the hashtable? But there's a lock so I'm not sure how that would happen.

For Marionette tests those assertions happen for the test test_crash.py, and especially when we trigger a crash of the content process. Haik, given that you fixed some issues lately maybe you are interested. Please see comment 15.

Taking what mccr8 said in comment 15 a little further, the two asserts hit here

are from

   122   void EndReadOp()
   123   {
   124     uint32_t oldState = mState--;     // this is an atomic decrement
   125     MOZ_ASSERT(IsRead(oldState));
   126   }
   127 
   128   void StartWriteOp()
   129   {
   130     MOZ_ASSERT(IsWritable());
   131     uint32_t oldState = mState.exchange(kWrite);
   132     MOZ_ASSERT(IsIdle(oldState));
   133   }

which implies (assuming this isn't memory corruption) we have a read/write race where another thread is doing a read of the hash table |crashReporterAPIData_Hash| without acquiring the lock |crashReporterAPILock| first.

In AnnotateCrashReport(), where we hit the crash, we are holding crashReporterAPILock while we do a Put()/write, but there are other uses of crashReporterAPIData_Hash that don't acquire the lock.

In GetAnnotation() we call crashReporterAPIData_Hash->Get() without the lock which looks like a bug.

And in nsExceptionHandler.cpp - WriteExtraData() we iterate over the table (passed in via the |data| argument) without acquring the lock, but that needs more debugging to determine if the lock is needed. That looks like its called from breakpad in exception context where threads can be suspended and hence locks are problematic (see bug 1457501 for an example.)

I'll take some time to look at the uses of crashReporterAPIData_Hash to try to determine if we're missing locking. Leaving ni for myself.

I haven't reproduced the crash yet, but I think this patch is likely to address the problem. It addresses two cases where we access crashReporterAPIData_Hash without acquiring the required lock. Given that this is a crash test, it's probably the use of the hash table from WriteExtraForMinidump() that is causing the problem. I'll work on reproducing this crash and then trying to validate the fix.

I've run toolkit/content/tests/browser/browser_crash_previous_frameloader.js for ~500 iterations on OS X and haven't been able to reproduce the crash so far. I'm going to move forward with posted fix which I've run for ~100 iterations of browser_crash_previous_frameloader.js and got a clean run on try: https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=7af65fdaa584666364ffe9b1747af3e1e05ac6ed

Bug 1351354 - Add missing lock protection to crashReporterAPIData_Hash

https://reviewboard.mozilla.org/r/251216/#review257570

Nice find. Though every time we run into these kind of issues I can't help but think we should mercilessly refactor this code.
