In VariableReference.to_object, we try to convert a gdb.Value to an
int without checking if the value is actually available. This came to
light in PR gdb/33345, after the x86 CET shadow stack patches were
merged.
If the x86 CET shadow stack register is available on the machine,
but the shadow stack feature is not enabled at run time, then the
register will show as "<unavailable>".
As the register is of type 'void *', then in the DAP code we try to
add a 'memoryReference' attribute with the value of the register
formatted as hex. This will fail if the register is unavailable.
To test this change you'll need:
(a) a machine which support the shadow stack feature, and
(b) to revert the changes from commit 63b862be76 in the file
gdb.dap/scopes.exp.

README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
