Hi everyone,

I am currently implementing the support for the Intel MPX registers in LLDB. 
This register set includes 2 registers, BNDSTATUS and BNDCFGU, which store 
information about the status and configuration of the MPX feature in several 
fields.
I think that it would be useful for the user to have a nice display of such 
fields, so that they don't have to extract the information from the raw values 
of the registers. However, I see that the other registers are just displayed as 
raw values, without any better ways to explore their contents.

Should I just follow this approach, and also just let the MPX registers be 
available through their raw values? 
Or have there ever been any requests for ways to display the register flags 
from LLDB?

Thanks,
- Valentina Giusti
