Re: RFC: Always use at least schedlock_step for software single steptargets



It effectively forces schedlock_step for SSS targets
(but I guess you knew that).  People appear to be very
diverse in their opinion about whether schedlock is the
"right" behavior or the "wrong" one.  You might not see
the behavior that you're trying to debug, if you're only
stepping one thread.

There are targets for which sched lock almost meaningless, but then, hopefully those targets also support hardware single step.


The change looks to be the best option.
