gdb: Thread Stops
5.5 Stopping and Starting Multi-thread Programs
===============================================
GDB supports debugging programs with multiple threads (
Debugging
Programs with Multiple Threads Threads.). There are two modes of
controlling execution of your program within the debugger. In the
default mode, referred to as "all-stop mode", when any thread in your
program stops (for example, at a breakpoint or while being stepped), all
other threads in the program are also stopped by GDB. On some targets,
GDB also supports "non-stop mode", in which other threads can continue
to run freely while you examine the stopped thread in the debugger.
