282 a ptraced process has changed. Earlier versions of the kernel
283 would ignore these SIGSTOPs, while now SIGSTOP is treated like any
284 other signal, i.e. it is not muffled.
286 If the gdb user does a 'continue' after the 'attach', gdb passes
287 the global variable stop_signal (which stores the signal from the
288 attach, SIGSTOP) to the ptrace(PTRACE_CONT,...) call. This is
289 problematic, because the kernel doesn't ignore such SIGSTOP
290 now. I.e. it is reported back to gdb, which in turn presents it
293 To avoid the problem, we use STOP_QUIETLY_NO_SIGSTOP, which allows
294 gdb to clear the value of stop_signal after the attach, so that it

348 Inferiors have unique internal identifiers that are different from
349 target process ids. Each inferior may in turn have multiple

352 Inferiors are intrusively refcounted objects. Unlike thread
353 objects, being the user-selected inferior is considered a strong
