friss added inline comments.


================
Comment at: lldb/source/Commands/CommandObjectThread.cpp:486-490
+      // NonStopMode runs all threads down in the ProcessPlugin layer, but
+      // at this level we need to pretend we are actually only running this
+      // thread.  So functionally it does the same thing as
+      // GetSteppingRunsAllThreads.  So it overrides the runs all threads
+      // setting.

Yes, although it still doesn't explain why this implementation detail matters. The comment makes it sound it shouldn't matter. It would be great to document what would break if we didn't set it.
