There are at least parts of this change that we don't want for CPU debugging -- with this change we will no longer raise up thread create events to the rest of the debugger when GDB raises a thread create, which would be a user-visible change at the least, and I am not sure if it would break other things that expect to get thread create events live. For GPU debugging, I am also a bit worried this change isn't enough -- we will still wind up creating thread objects in the UI for all the GPU threads. Is that actually usable in either VS or VS Code? For example in the VS Code call stack window, or in VS in the parallel stacks, or threads window? I would have thought you would just want to show a small number (maybe just 1 virtual thread?) with some custom UI to select the thread. |
Changes to disable info thread for each created thread to expedite GPU
debugging. GPUs are likely to have 1000s of threads and calling thread
info for each thread created is very time consuming.
We call SetThreadInfoFromResultValue from CollectThreadInfo when we
get thread context.
