A new test case has been added to verify the behavior of gas when encountering unsupported Control Flow Integrity (CFI) directives within signal frames. In such scenarios, gas typically skips the generation of a full Stack Frame (SFrame) description and instead produces an “empty” Frame Description Entry (FDE). This test ensures this behavior is correctly handled and aligns with a previous fix for dangling pointers during context cleanup.
