After #127300 removed ExInfo::m_hThrowable and SetThrowable(), Thread::m_LastThrownObjectHandle is no longer updated during active exception dispatch. This causes a staleclastThrownObjectHandle to ge returned by GetThreadData when a debugger breaks into the target mid-dispatch.

When debugging a .NET 11 process with SOS (e.g. via dotnet-dump or WinDbg), the following commands fail if the debuggee is stopped during exception dispatch (for example, with SXE CLR):

  • !PrintException — reports "Invalid exception object" because it dereferences the stale handle and gets a null or recycled pointer
  • !Threads — shows no exception column for threads that are actively throwing
  • !clrstack -a with exception context — may show incomplete or missing exception info

Pull request overview

This PR fixes debugger-visible exception reporting when the target is stopped mid-exception-dispatch by preferring the active exception stored in the ExInfo tracker (via a pseudo-handle to the exception slot) instead of relying on Thread::m_LastThrownObjectHandle, which can be stale during active dispatch after #127300.

Changes:

  • Update native DAC ClrDataAccess::GetThreadData to return the active exception pseudo-handle when available, falling back to m_LastThrownObjectHandle.
  • Update the cDAC thread contract to compute ThreadData.LastThrownObjectHandle from the active ExceptionInfo.ThrownObject slot when present (same pseudo-handle semantics), with fallback.

After #127300 removed ExInfo::m_hThrowable and SetThrowable(), Thread::m_LastThrownObjectHandle is no longer updated during active exception dispatch. This causes a staleclastThrownObjectHandle to ge returned by GetThreadData when a debugger breaks into the target mid-dispatch.

When debugging a .NET 11 process with SOS (e.g. via dotnet-dump or WinDbg), the following commands fail if the debuggee is stopped during exception dispatch (for example, with SXE CLR):

  • !PrintException — reports "Invalid exception object" because it dereferences the stale handle and gets a null or recycled pointer
  • !Threads — shows no exception column for threads that are actively throwing
  • !clrstack -a with exception context — may show incomplete or missing exception info

Pull request overview

This PR fixes debugger-visible exception reporting when the target is stopped mid-exception-dispatch by preferring the active exception stored in the ExInfo tracker (via a pseudo-handle to the exception slot) instead of relying on Thread::m_LastThrownObjectHandle, which can be stale during active dispatch after #127300.

Changes:

  • Update native DAC ClrDataAccess::GetThreadData to return the active exception pseudo-handle when available, falling back to m_LastThrownObjectHandle.
  • Update the cDAC thread contract to compute ThreadData.LastThrownObjectHandle from the active ExceptionInfo.ThrownObject slot when present (same pseudo-handle semantics), with fallback.
