Support forked processes
conversation from lexsek:
Just a TAB to send GDB commands (could be usefull for forks -> follow-fork-mode [child|parent] and so on Or just the ability to choose between the processes created by forks That sould be also great to follow spawned processes by the main debugged process 2:30 Maybe a "Process TAB" just like the thread one New 2:32 But yeah basically beeing able to choose easily which process to follow (inside binja impletemented stuff, or just a tab to send gdb commands to start like follow-fork-mode) would be awesome
Does gdb support targeting multiple processes at the same time? Or would we need to maintain a new instance of gdb (and another adapter) for every child process?
I believe this answers your question @CouleeApps https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/Forks.html tl;dr; System dependent. Linux Kernel 2.5.46+ has support for this which gdb utilizes,
Total guess/personal theory: WinDBG supports this with .chliddbg 1, so there may be [un]documented support in the windows kernel which gdb could be made to tap into.
