"optimized out" in spite of DWARF saying otherwise?

[Michael Haupt]

Hi,

so I have this formal argument to a method, and my DWARF says

0x...e642 - 0x...e642: rdi

(note start and end are the same). gdb, however, insists on the value being "<optimized out>", with the current address being 0x...e642. How is this?

Best,

Michael
