> It was assumed that the assert in `Thread::current()`, which calls the

> inform the GCC compiler that the current thread is always non-null. However,
> it turns out that the assert is weakened by the `DebuggingContext`:

> `if ( !(DebuggingContext::is_enabled() || current != null) ) {
> report_vm_error(...); }`
>
> If `DebuggingContext` is enabled then the error will not be triggered
> regardless of what `current` is. This makes GCC consider the virtually
> impossible path and emit false positive warnings about atomics.

> The same problem is found in the Shenandoah code.

> The fix is to strengthen the assertion by
> `DEBUG_ONLY(guarantee(current != nullptr, "...");)`
> which removes the assertion completely in product builds, but for debug
> builds makes it clear for the compiler that the operand cannot be nullptr.
>
> With this findings I conclude that it is not a compiler bug.
>
> Tested in tiers 1-5 and GHA.
>
> Separate builds with Shenandoah done.
