John Baldwin e58e05d677 Enable fork tracing for native FreeBSD targets.
Enable PT_FOLLOW_FORK on all processes.  When this is enabled, both
the parent and child process stop when a fork or vfork occurs.

A target operation for wait uses PT_LWPINFO to fetch more detailed
information about the state of a stopped process.  A parent process
sets the PL_FLAG_FORKED flag in the pl_flags field of the structure
returned by PT_LWPINFO as well as the pid of the new child process.
The child process sets the PL_FLAG_CHILD flag in the pl_flags field.

When a fork is detected, the wait hook waits for both processes to
report their respective events.  It then reports the fork to GDB as
a single TARGET_WAITKIND_FORKED or TARGET_WAITKIND_VFORKED event.
The kernel does not guarantee the order the events are reported in.
If the parent process' event is reported first, then the wait hook
explicitly waits for the child process.  If the child process' event
is reported first, the event is recorded on an internal list of
pending child events and the wait hook waits for another event.
Later when the parent process' event is reported, the parent will
use the previously-recorded child process event instead of explicitly
waiting on the child process.

To distinguish vfork events from fork events, the external process
structure for the child process is extracted from the kernel.  The
P_PPWAIT flag is set in the ki_flags field of this structure if the
process was created via vfork, but it is not set for a regular fork.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
