*** Changes since GDB 7.3
* The new option --once causes GDBserver to stop listening for connections once
the first connection is made. The listening port used by GDBserver will
become available after that.
*** Changes in GDB 7.3
* GDB has a new command: "thread find [REGEXP]".

Then you can connect using @kbd{target extended-remote} and start

@code{gdbserver} does not automatically exit in multi-process mode.
You can terminate it by using @code{monitor exit}
(@pxref{Monitor Commands for gdbserver}).
In multi-process mode @code{gdbserver} does not automatically exit unless you
use the option @option{--once}. You can terminate it by using
@code{monitor exit} (@pxref{Monitor Commands for gdbserver}). Note that the
conditions under which @code{gdbserver} terminates depend on how @value{GDBN}
connects to it (@kbd{target remote} or @kbd{target extended-remote}). The
@option{--multi} option to @code{gdbserver} has no influence on that.
@subsubsection TCP port allocation lifecycle of @code{gdbserver}
This section applies only when @code{gdbserver} is run to listen on a TCP port.
@code{gdbserver} normally terminates after all of its debugged processes have
terminated in @kbd{target remote} mode. On the other hand, for @kbd{target
extended-remote}, @code{gdbserver} stays running even with no processes left.
@value{GDBN} normally terminates the spawned debugged process on its exit,
which normally also terminates @code{gdbserver} in the @kbd{target remote}
mode. Therefore, when the connection drops unexpectedly, and @value{GDBN}
cannot ask @code{gdbserver} to kill its debugged processes, @code{gdbserver}
stays running even in the @kbd{target remote} mode.
When @code{gdbserver} stays running, @value{GDBN} can connect to it again later.
Such reconnecting is useful for features like @ref{disconnected tracing}. For
completeness, at most one @value{GDBN} can be connected at a time.
@cindex @option{--once}, @code{gdbserver} option
By default, @code{gdbserver} keeps the listening TCP port open, so that
additional connections are possible. However, if you start @code{gdbserver}
with the @option{--once} option, it will stop listening for any further
connection attempts after connecting to the first @value{GDBN} session. This
means no further connections to @code{gdbserver} will be possible after the
first one. It also means @code{gdbserver} will terminate after the first
connection with remote @value{GDBN} has closed, even for unexpectedly closed
connections and even in the @kbd{target extended-remote} mode. The
@option{--once} option allows reusing the same port number for connecting to
multiple instances of @code{gdbserver} running on the same host, since each
instance closes its port after the first connection.
