[release/9.0-staging] Don't wait for finalizers in 'IReferenceTrackerHost::ReleaseDisconnectedReferenceSources'

[github-actions]

Backport of #110551 to release/9.0-staging

/cc @jkotas @Sergio0694

Customer Impact

• Customer reported
• Found internally

Intermittent hang when UWP/WinUI app is suspended. Reported by Windows Store.

Regression

• Yes
• No

This is .NET Native -> .NET 9 regression on UWP. The fix updates IReferenceTrackerHost::ReleaseDisconnectedReferenceSources implementation in .NET 9 to match .NET Native (ie reverts the offending change).

Testing

Fix validated on private build by Windows Store

Risk

Low

@Sergio0694 Would it be possible to validate the fix by building and testing Windows Store app with NAOT from main?

• Wait a day for nightly build with the fix to get published
• Add <add key="dotnet10" value="https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/dnceng/public/_packaging/dotnet10/nuget/v3/index.json" /> to your nuget.config
• Add <add key="dotnet10" value="https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/dnceng/public/_packaging/dotnet10/nuget/v3/index.json" /> to your .csproj
• Build & test

So I managed to get the Store to run on .NET 10 CoreCLR, but ILC is not happy 😅

Perhaps it would be simpler to just test with an SDK build from this branch? Is there a pipeline I can run to get it?

[MichalStrehovsky]

Weird, this overload was added in #110234, this must be using some AotSdk with an old corelib (and likely old runtime too, without your fix). What are your repro steps?

If you download the latest .NET 10 SDK, it should already have the ILCompiler with your fix. So all that should be needed is to put it in the PATH, add NuGet.config with the .NET 10 feed, update Store to target .NET 10 and that's it.

[Sergio0694]

That's exactly what I did 🥲

[Sergio0694]

Update: I tested again (this time in Release, last time I was trying to run in Debug + Native AOT), and it works! 🎉

I can no longer repro the hangs (no spinning circle on the mouse cursor, no hangs in event viewer), and I can close and reopen the Store multiple times in rapid succession without getting stuck at the OS splash screen (due to the previous instance being hung)!

@Sergio0694 Thank you for testing the fix! I have submitted the change into servicing approval process.
