kib 6ebb9a02fc When a debugger attaches to the process, SIGSTOP is sent to the
target.  Due to a way issignal() selects the next signal to deliver
and report, if the simultaneous or already pending another signal
exists, that signal might be reported by the next waitpid(2) call.
This causes minor annoyance for debuggers, which must be prepared to
take any signal as the first event, then filter SIGSTOP later.

More importantly, for tools like gcore(1), which attach and then
detach without processing events, SIGSTOP might leak to be delivered
after PT_DETACH.  This results in the process being unintentionally
stopped after detach, which is fatal for automatic tools.

The solution is to force SIGSTOP to be the first signal reported after
the attach.  Attach code is modified to set P2_PTRACE_FSTP to indicate
that the attaching ritual was not yet finished, and issignal() prefers
SIGSTOP in that condition.  Also, the thread which handles
P2_PTRACE_FSTP is made to guarantee to own p_xthread during the first
waitpid(2).  All that ensures that SIGSTOP is consumed first.

Additionally, if P2_PTRACE_FSTP is still set on detach, which means
that waitpid(2) was not called at all, SIGSTOP is removed from the
queue, ensuring that the process is resumed on detach.

In issignal(), when acting on STOPing signals, remove the signal from
queue before suspending.  Otherwise parallel attach could result in
ptracestop() acting on that STOP as if it was the STOP signal from the
attach.  Then SIGSTOP from attach leaks again.

As a minor refactoring, some bits of the common attach code is moved
to new helper proc_set_traced().

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree.  See build(7)
and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html
for more information, including setting make(1) variables.

The `buildkernel` and `installkernel` targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below).  Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process.  See build(7), config(8),
and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html
for more information.

Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
`buildkernel` and `installkernel` targets, you might need to build
world before.  More information is available in the handbook.

The kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory.  GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds.
NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
