Yes, that's a known bug for arm -- we treat "single step" as "execute one instruction", whereas I think most debuggers will treat "we took an exception" as a reason to stop the single step and return control to the user, rather than executing the insn at the exception entry point as the one instruction of the step. (You can see similar odd behaviour if you try to single step a load instruction which causes a data abort, for instance -- on arm at least we will execute the first insn of the data abort handler before completing the step.) thanks -- PMM
