Could you, please, consider the simplification below?


#if INCLUDE_JVMTI
// return true if started vthread unmount
bool jvmti_unmount_begin(JavaThread* target) {
  assert(!target->is_in_any_VTMS_transition(), "must be");

  // Don't preempt if there is a pending popframe or earlyret operation. This 
can
  // be installed in start_VTMS_transition() so we need to check it here.
  if (JvmtiExport::can_pop_frame() || JvmtiExport::can_force_early_return()) {
    JvmtiThreadState* state = target->jvmti_thread_state();
    if (target->has_pending_popframe() || (state != nullptr && 
state->is_earlyret_pending())) {
      return false;
    }
  }
  // Don't preempt in case there is an async exception installed since
  // we would incorrectly throw it during the unmount logic in the carrier.
  if (target->has_async_exception_condition()) {
    return false;
  }
  if (JvmtiVTMSTransitionDisabler::VTMS_notify_jvmti_events()) {
    JvmtiVTMSTransitionDisabler::VTMS_vthread_unmount(target->vthread(), true);
  } else {
    target->set_is_in_VTMS_transition(true);
    // not need to call: 
java_lang_Thread::set_is_in_VTMS_transition(target->vthread(), true)
  }
  return false;
}

static bool is_vthread_safe_to_preempt_for_jvmti(JavaThread* target) {
  if (target->is_in_VTMS_transition()) {
    // We caught target at the end of a mount transition.
    return false;
  }
  return true;
}
#endif // INCLUDE_JVMTI
...
static bool is_vthread_safe_to_preempt(JavaThread* target, oop vthread) {
  assert(java_lang_VirtualThread::is_instance(vthread), "");
  if (java_lang_VirtualThread::state(vthread) != 
java_lang_VirtualThread::RUNNING) {  // inside transition
    return false;
  }
  return JVMTI_ONLY(is_vthread_safe_to_preempt_for_jvmti(target)) 
NOT_JVMTI(true);
}
...
int Continuation::try_preempt(JavaThread* target, oop continuation) {
  verify_preempt_preconditions(target, continuation);

  if (LockingMode == LM_LEGACY) {
    return freeze_unsupported;
  }
  if (!is_safe_vthread_to_preempt(target, target->vthread())) {
    return freeze_pinned_native;
  }
  JVMTI_ONLY(if (!jvmti_unmount_begin(target)) return freeze_pinned_native;)
  int res = CAST_TO_FN_PTR(FreezeContFnT, freeze_preempt_entry())(target, 
target->last_Java_sp());
  log_trace(continuations, preempt)("try_preempt: %d", res);
  return res;
}


The following won't be needed:

target->set_pending_jvmti_unmount_event(true);

jvmtiThreadState.cpp:

+  if (thread->pending_jvmti_unmount_event()) {
+    
assert(java_lang_VirtualThread::is_preempted(JNIHandles::resolve(vthread)), 
"should be marked preempted");
+    JvmtiExport::post_vthread_unmount(vthread);
+    thread->set_pending_jvmti_unmount_event(false);
+  }


As we discussed before there can be the `has_async_exception_condition()` flag 
set after a VTMS unmount transition has been started. But there is always such 
a race in VTMS transitions and the flag has to be processed as usual.
