Hello!

I have read gdb-5.3 source. I know it uses primarily on x86/alpha linux platform.

But a debugger can only debug the unique process, not more processes simultaneously.


That is incorrect.  GDB can debug any number of physical processes at
once.  However, GDB only supports this when they are threads of the
same program.

Getting support for multiple independant processes is on the long term wish list.
