            Bug ID: 46833
           Summary: LLDB is missing support for DW_OP_implicit_value dwarf
                    operation
           Product: lldb
           Version: unspecified

            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P

LLDB is missing support for DW_OP_implicit_value dwarf operation.

clang was also not supporting this, seems like in some cases
DW_op_implicit_value is indispensable. 

Support is added in clang with currently emission restricted for debugger
tunning GDB.

For more details please refer: https://reviews.llvm.org/D83560

For a typical use case compiled as 
$tot-clang -ggdb -O1 test.c
or with gcc also
$gcc -ggdb -O1 test.c //GCC uses DW_OP_implicit_value ubiquitously for all
floating point constants.
