Following the documentation change, the event would have been reported like this instead: Notification received: Stop:T05vforkdone:p7260.7260 gdb/doc/ChangeLog: 2015-09-15 Pedro Alves PR remote/18965 * gdb.texinfo (Stop Reply Packets): Revert previous change to the vforkdone description. --- diff --git a/gdb/doc/ChangeLog b/gdb/doc/ChangeLog index 2cc6039..1e16e92 100644 --- a/gdb/doc/ChangeLog +++ b/gdb/doc/ChangeLog @@ -1,6 +1,12 @@ 2015-09-15 Pedro Alves PR remote/18965 + * gdb.texinfo (Stop Reply Packets): Revert previous change to + the vforkdone description. + +2015-09-15 Pedro Alves + + PR remote/18965 * gdb.texinfo (Stop Reply Packets): Explain that vforkdone's 'r' part indicates the thread ID of the parent process. diff --git a/gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo b/gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo index e80e695..4ecdb8f 100644 --- a/gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo +++ b/gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo @@ -35498,12 +35498,11 @@ indicating support. @cindex vforkdone events, remote reply @item vforkdone -The packet indicates that a child process created by a vfork has -either called @code{exec} or terminated, so that the address spaces of -the parent and child process are no longer shared.
