Affected Platform/Device: Generic

 Description   

For applications that use overlays, it was possible to debug them with CCS by leveraging GEL/DSS APIs to show and hide symbols for the appropriate sections so that the debugger would pull up the right source (and other related debug information) when debugging the overlay code. This is still applicable for non-clang compiler output that uses OFS. However this functionality is not supported with the LLDB symbol manager, making it difficult to debug overlays.
