================ Comment at: lldb/source/Plugins/Process/gdb-remote/GDBRemoteRegisterContext.cpp:792-793 + } + reg.byte_offset = end_reg_offset; + end_reg_offset += reg.byte_size; + } ---------------- We already have a mostly generic algorithm for computing the initial offsets of registers. This code reintroduces the assumptions about the ordering of registers and similar. It would be nice if this could reuse that offset computation code (after updating the register sizes). One possibility might be to stash the original register infos (with empty byte offsets) somewhere, and then reinitialize this register context from *that*. ================ Comment at: lldb/source/Plugins/Process/gdb-remote/GDBRemoteRegisterContext.cpp:767 + m_reg_data.Clear(); + m_reg_data.SetData(reg_data_sp); + m_reg_data.SetByteOrder(GetByteOrder()); ---------------- omjavaid wrote: > jasonmolenda wrote: > > I'm probably not following this correctly, but isn't this going to shorten > > the register buffer m_reg_data to the end of the SVE registers in the > > buffer, right?

How often do you expect the user to be changing the vector length? Could we just create a completely empty (invalid) buffer of the right size and force a re-fetch the next time the registers are accessed? With `g` packets, this should be a single round-trip anyway...
