Set a watchpoint. But remember this will slow down the code very much as that
address will be checked for after each instruction. Also you need to be in the
same thread of execution. Otherwise your watchpoint will be deleted. If you
have multiple threads of execution say multiple processes which get scheduled
and you dont know in which process the value is getting changed, this might
not be helpful and the only alternative you have is a logic analyzer.
