There is a workaround we can do for [JDK-8292217](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8292217) for the use case where a step over or step out is being done. This workaround can't be made to also work for the step into case. From [JDK-8292217](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8292217)
"There is a workaround that fixes this issue when doing a STEP_OVER or STEP_OUT. Rather than the debug agent checking if it has enabled JVMTI single stepping, instead it checks some fields in the ThreadNode that say if single stepping is pending, and it is for a STEP_INTO. If it is not STEP_INTO, then it can assume that no StepEvent will occur at the same location and therefor the MethodEntryEvent should not be deferred. So this limits the bug to only happening when doing a STEP_INTO. " ------------- Commit messages: - Workaround for JDK-8292217 for step over.
