236 On newer GNU/Linux kernels (>= 2.5.61) the handling of SIGSTOP for
237 a ptraced process has changed. Earlier versions of the kernel
238 would ignore these SIGSTOPs, while now SIGSTOP is treated like any
239 other signal, i.e. it is not muffled.

242 the global variable stop_signal (which stores the signal from the
243 attach, SIGSTOP) to the ptrace(PTRACE_CONT,...) call. This is
244 problematic, because the kernel doesn't ignore such SIGSTOP
245 now. I.e. it is reported back to gdb, which in turn presents it
246 back to the user.
247

249 gdb to clear the value of stop_signal after the attach, so that it
