Crash report

What happened?

When running the following code snipped a few times, I can cause two different windows exceptions. And also the expected ValueError: generator already executing.

from threading import Thread

def inner(it):
    for _i in it:
        pass

def main():
    it = (i for i in range(100000))
    t1 = Thread(target=inner, args=(it,))
    t2 = Thread(target=inner, args=(it,))
    t1.start()
    t2.start()
    t1.join()
    t2.join()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()
    print("success")
Assertion failed: (gen->gi_frame_state == FRAME_CREATED) || FRAME_STATE_SUSPENDED(gen->gi_frame_state), file ...\cpython\Objects\genobject.c, line 242

Not sure why it cannot get the C stack. I used the current main branch to compile a debug build. The -VV string shows a custom branch, but it doesn't include any changes.

CPython versions tested on:

CPython main branch

Operating systems tested on:

Windows

Output from running 'python -VV' on the command line:

Python 3.15.0a0 experimental free-threading build (heads/fix-thread-crash-dirty:2e1544fd2b0, Jun 5 2025, 16:53:09) [MSC v.1944 64 bit (AMD64)]
