Crashing sample

The FTL::Thunks class [0] appears to be used to store shared fragments of code used by the FTL JIT. It provides two methods:

    MacroAssemblerCodeRef<JITThunkPtrTag> getSlowPathCallThunk(VM& vm, const SlowPathCallKey& key)
    {
        Locker locker { m_lock };
        return generateIfNecessary(vm, m_slowPathCallThunks, key, slowPathCallThunkGenerator);  // This does a HashTable::add
    }

    SlowPathCallKey keyForSlowPathCallThunk(MacroAssemblerCodePtr<JITThunkPtrTag> ptr)
    {
        return keyForThunk(m_slowPathCallThunks, ptr);      // This does a HashTable::lookup
    }

The keyForSlowPathCallThunk method seems to be called on the main thread during repatching (see stack trace below), while the getSlowPathCallThunk method can be called on a background JIT thread (this can e.g. be seen by setting a breakpoint on getSlowPathCallThunk or one of its callers, e.g. SlowPathCallContext::makeCall [1] and checking the thread that hits it). As such, there is a race condition here: the main thread doesn't attempt to take the lock when performing the lookup while the HashTable::add performed by the background thread can lead to a HashTable::rehash, and thus e.g. to the backing memory being freed. Frequently, winning this race seems to cause a RELEASE_ASSERT in FTL::Thunks::keyForThunk [2] to be hit (presumably because the rehash happens in place, and so the element isn't found), however, it can also cause memory corruption, as shown by the following ASAN report:

This likely happens when the background thread frees the m_table member after rehashing the table and after the main thread loaded the old value of the pointer during a lookup.

The attached sample, found by Fuzzilli, appears to trigger this race sometimes, but very rarely. The sample is unfortunately not minimized as it isn't deterministic.
I managed to trigger the above ASAN crash by compiling JSC on Linux with
    ./Tools/Scripts/build-jsc --jsc-only --release --cmakeargs="-DENABLE_STATIC_JSC=ON -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER='/usr/bin/clang-10' -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER='/usr/bin/clang++-10' -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS='-fsanitize=address' -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS='-fsanitize=address' -DCMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS='-fsanitize=address'"
and repeatedly executing the attached sample with
    while true; do ASAN_OPTIONS=detect_leaks=0 ./FuzzBuild/Release/bin/jsc --thresholdForJITSoon=10 --thresholdForJITAfterWarmUp=10 --thresholdForOptimizeAfterWarmUp=100 --threshold ForOptimizeAfterLongWarmUp=100 --thresholdForOptimizeAfterLongWarmUp=100 --thresholdForFTLOptimizeAfterWarmUp=1000 --thresholdForFTLOptimizeSoon=1000 ftl_crash.js; done
If it helps, I can see if it's possible to place some sleeps into the HashTable code to make the race easier to trigger.
