remote follow fork and spurious child stops in non-stop mode
Running gdb.threads/fork-plus-threads.exp against gdbserver in extended-remote mode, even though the test passes, we still see broken behavior: (gdb) PASS: gdb.threads/fork-plus-threads.exp: set detach-on-fork off continue & Continuing. (gdb) PASS: gdb.threads/fork-plus-threads.exp: continue & [New Thread 28092.28092] [Thread 28092.28092] #2 stopped.

(gdb) PASS: gdb.threads/fork-plus-threads.exp: no threads left info inferiors Num Description Executable * 1 <null> /home/pedro/gdb/mygit/build/gdb/testsuite/gdb.threads/fork-plus-threads (gdb) PASS: gdb.threads/fork-plus-threads.exp: only inferior 1 left All the "[Thread FOO] #NN stopped." above are bogus, as well as the "Cannot remove breakpoints because program is no longer writable.", which is a consequence. The problem is that when we intercept a fork event, we should report the event for the parent, only, and leave the child stopped, but not report its stop event. GDB later decides whether to follow the parent or the child. But because handle_extended_wait does not set the child's last_status.kind to TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED, a stop_all_threads/unstop_all_lwps sequence (e.g., from trying to access memory) by mistake ends up queueing a SIGSTOP on the child, resuming it, and then when that SIGSTOP is intercepted, because the LWP has last_resume_kind set to resume_stop, gdbserver reports the stop to GDB, as GDB_SIGNAL_0: ... >>>> entering unstop_all_lwps unstopping all lwps proceed_one_lwp: lwp 1600 client wants LWP to remain 1600 stopped proceed_one_lwp: lwp 1828 Client wants LWP 1828 to stop.
