+   Wait gdb connection to a port (e.g., ``1234``) or a unix socket (e.g.,

+
+   If a unix socket path contains single ``%d`` placeholder (e.g.,

+   when passing this option via the ``QEMU_GDB`` environment variable to a
+   multi-process application.
+
+   If the endpoint address is followed by ``,suspend=n`` (e.g.,
+   ``1234,suspend=n``), then the emulated program starts without waiting for a
+   connection, which can be established at any later point in time.

    Run the emulation with one guest instruction per translation block.
