261 a ptraced process has changed. Earlier versions of the kernel
262 would ignore these SIGSTOPs, while now SIGSTOP is treated like any
263 other signal, i.e. it is not muffled.
265 If the gdb user does a 'continue' after the 'attach', gdb passes
266 the global variable stop_signal (which stores the signal from the
267 attach, SIGSTOP) to the ptrace(PTRACE_CONT,...) call. This is
268 problematic, because the kernel doesn't ignore such SIGSTOP
269 now. I.e. it is reported back to gdb, which in turn presents it
270 back to the user.
272 To avoid the problem, we use STOP_QUIETLY_NO_SIGSTOP, which allows

330 Inferiors have unique internal identifiers that are different from

337 refcount (see set_current_inferior). When GDB needs to remember
