From: Prafull Suryawanshi To: pinskia@gmail.com Cc: Andreas Schwab , "gdb@sourceware.org" Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable X-IsSubscribed: yes X-SW-Source: 2015-06/txt/msg00020.txt.bz2 I am not sure why hw stepper not works here (might be limitation of hw I am using). That is may be the infrun loops as it never gets stop signal. (the output I earlier pasted). Is it ok to provide patch for software single step like arm here? (I am preparing one. It will have simulate aarch64 instruction set and implement aarch64 version of functions of arm_linux_software_single_step, arm_insert_single_step_breakpoint and arm_get_next_pc.)
