[Lldb-commits] [PATCH] D58678: Improve step over performance by not stopping at branches that are function calls and stepping into and them out of each one

@clayborg Seems like this still steps into the `call` if the call is the last instruction in the range. `ThreadPlanStepRange::SetNextBranchBreakpoint` checks `if (last_index - pc_index > 1)` before setting the breakpoint. So if `last_index == pc_index` and `pc` points to `call` then the thread plan will resort to single stepping and thus go through all the same machinery. Obviously, this isn't a problem as this just leads to using the same functionality that it used prior to this patch, but you miss out on the optimization you're aiming for.
