This patch implements follow-fork for vfork on extended-remote linux targets.
The implementation follows the native implementation as much as possible. Most of the work is done on the GDB side in the existing code now in infrun.c. GDBserver just has to report the events and do a little bookkeeping.
Implementation was almost entirely in gdbserver, excepting changes to gdb/remote.c, and included:
* enabling VFORK events
- by adding ptrace options for VFORK and VFORK_DONE as 'additional options' in linux-low.c:initialize_low, so that they are available for extended-mode.
- by adding ptrace options for VFORK and VFORK_DONE as 'base options' in linux-low.c:linux_enable_extended_features. In this function we know we are in extended-mode, so we enable these options if they are supported.
* handling VFORK and VFORK_DONE events in linux-low.c:handle_extended_wait by saving the event information for event reporting and for the follow_fork request expected to come from GDB.
* handling VFORK in linux-low.c:linux_follow_fork, for the case where VFORK_DONE is supported and the case where it is not. This code is very similar to the code in linux-nat.c:linux_child_follow_fork, but slight differences in the data structures between the two implementations led me to keep them separate.
* include VFORK and VFORK_DONE events in the predicate linux-low.c:extended_event_reported.
* add support for VFORK and VFORK_DONE events in RSP by adding stop reasons "vfork" and "vforkdone" to the 'T' Stop Reply Packet in both gdbserver/remote-utils.c and gdb/remote.c.
Tested on x64 Ubuntu Lucid, native, remote, extended-remote. Also tested (on the same system) support for systems lacking VFORK_DONE events by modifying gdbserver to simulate that case.
Thanks,
