Hi Don,

This is OK.  One nit below.

I see that the "Continuing and Stepping" section doesn't mention
it.  It's mentioned in "help continue", and here in the manual:

 In non-stop mode, all execution commands apply only to the current thread
 by default.  That is, @code{continue} only continues one thread.
 To continue all threads, issue @code{continue -a} or @code{c -a}.

AFAICS, this will render as:

 lock-schedoff,non-stopon

etc.  I suggest adding a '=':

     with_test_prefix "lock-sched=$lock_sched,non-stop=$nonstop" {

(in the other files too, of course.)

Thanks,
