I think that's roughly the purpose assertions serve. If something is terribly broken, it will blow up on the developers but it will be optimized away in normal work. ================ Comment at: lldb/source/Plugins/Process/FreeBSDRemote/NativeRegisterContextFreeBSD_x86_64.cpp:479 + case XSaveRegSet: + // TODO: can WriteRegisterSet() ever be called without ReadRegisterSet()? + assert(m_xsave.size() > 0); ---------------- labath wrote: > mgorny wrote: > > @labath, is this a safe assumption to make?

In this case, I can easily verify it's never called like this, so I'll just update the comment and leave the assert so that we don't break it in the future.
