+ code, and now the application forks (on the PPU side). GDB common code
+ will assume that the fork system call copied all breakpoints into the new
+ process' address space, and that all those copies now need to be removed
+ (see breakpoint.c:detach_breakpoints).
+
+ While this is certainly true for PPU side breakpoints, it is not true
+ for SPU side breakpoints. fork will clone the SPU context file
+ descriptors, so that all the existing SPU contexts are in accessible
+ in the new process. However, the contents of the SPU contexts themselves
+ are *not* cloned. Therefore the effect of detach_breakpoints is to
+ remove SPU breakpoints from the *original* SPU context's local store
+ -- this is not the correct behaviour.
+
+ The workaround is to check whether the PID we are asked to remove this
+ breakpoint from (i.e. ptid_get_pid (inferior_ptid)) is different from the
+ PID of the current inferior (i.e. current_inferior ()->pid). This is only
+ true in the context of detach_breakpoints. If so, we simply do nothing.
+ [ Note that for the fork child process, it does not matter if breakpoints
+ remain inserted, because those SPU contexts are not runnable anyway --
+ the Linux kernel allows only the original process to invoke spu_run. */
