Description

This issue outlines work for debugging support on the CoreCLR interpreter.

Goals (functional)

• User breakpoint support (System.Diagnostics.Debugger.Break()) [clr-interp] Add User Breakpoint Support for Interpreter Debugging #121911
• Regular breakpoints set via IDE and stepping [clr-interp] Support for breakpoints and stepping #123251
• Variables, stack traces: works
• Exception unwinding
• Enable debugger tests in CI running with CoreCLR interpreter on desktop
  • Identified failures: setip, exceptions, functional eval, stackwalking, TBA

Other

• [debugger] Replace PRDIsEmpty(opcode) activation check with explicit m_activated flag #124499
• [debugger] Decouple IExecutionControl from DebuggerControllerPatch #124546
• Refactor current JIT debugger support to use the new HardwareExecutionControl abstraction
• Remove interpreter specific condition checks (e.g., if (pJitManager != NULL && pJitManager == ExecutionManager::GetInterpreterJitManager()))
  • How to handle scenarios where no JitManager is available
• WASM support for interpreter debugging
