Hi,

When I use `attach $pid` in gdb,
1) if the pid is a thread id, the thread specified was stoped and others
just continue running. 2) But where pid is a process id gdb attach to the
process and all thread in that process stoped.

After read the manpage[1] and do some experiments, I found that ptrace was
worked on thread level, So, is there a way for gdb only attach first thread
when attach to process id.

Thanks. Regards
