Hi, everyone:
I want to get all threads of one definite process, and I've found some
data structure such as 'all_threads', which is not what I want, i
guess. I don't understand the relationship between process and thread,
from the gdb-source-code-level (pointers for example), and I don't
understand the meaning of 'ptid_t', does this mean 'process_thread_id'
? and I've found this data's value is not the thread's PID that Linux
shell tell me, it just some number like 0 or 1.
If you know something about this, please help me. Thanks.
BR.

You'll need to clarify. ptid_t is a struct of three values,
it is not "just some number like 0 or 1".

ptid_t is the type gdb uses internally to identify both processes and threads.
Its API is defined in gdb/common/ptid.[ch].
There is ptid_match() which could be given a process ptid for the filter,
and then you just need to iterate over all_threads, e.g. with
for_each_inferior_with_data, for threads that match (IOW for threads
that have the same process id).
