Bug 166397 – ChildProcessProxy::shutDownProcess calls Connection::terminateSoon even on invalid connections, but shouldn’t

• Status: NEW
• Component: WebKit2

I noticed that Web Content process crashes are sometimes followed by this being logged:

Unable to acquire assertion for process 0

This happens because the ProcessAssertion constructor gets called with a 0 pid, which comes from the connection to the crashed process, which is no longer valid. In this backtrace:

#0	0x0000000195b0d300 in WebKit::ProcessAssertion::ProcessAssertion(int, WebKit::AssertionState, WTF::Function<void ()>&&) at WebKit2/UIProcess/ios/ProcessAssertionIOS.mm:167

shutDownProcess() should not call Connection::terminateSoon if the connection is already invalid.
