  DataExtractor is used for caching register values on stop by gdb-remote register context. RegisterValue is mostly used for passing around register values temporarily during read/write.



================
Comment at: lldb/include/lldb/Utility/RegisterValue.h:264
                                          // register for any supported target.
-    uint8_t length;
+    uint32_t length;
     lldb::ByteOrder byte_order;

ACK.


================
Comment at: lldb/source/Plugins/Process/gdb-remote/GDBRemoteCommunicationServerLLGS.cpp:2051
   // Parse out the value.
-  uint8_t reg_bytes[32]; // big enough to support up to 256 bit ymmN register
+  uint8_t reg_bytes[256]; // big enough to support up to 256 byte AArch64 SVE
+                          // registers
