Ok, looks good. Some extra suggestions inline.



================
Comment at: lldb/source/Plugins/Process/gdb-remote/GDBRemoteCommunicationServerLLGS.cpp:490
+                                        response.GetString());
+  else
+    return SendPacketNoLock(response.GetString());
----------------
no else after return


================
Comment at: lldb/source/Plugins/Process/gdb-remote/GDBRemoteCommunicationServerLLGS.cpp:1592-1602
   Status error = m_continue_process->Resume(actions);
   if (error.Fail()) {
     LLDB_LOG(log, "c failed for process {0}: {1}", m_continue_process->GetID(),
              error);
     return SendErrorResponse(GDBRemoteServerError::eErrorResume);
   }
 
----------------
Could we have a helper function for this, and make all the continue-like actions go through that?


================
Comment at: lldb/source/Plugins/Process/gdb-remote/GDBRemoteCommunicationServerLLGS.cpp:1753
+    // notifications.
+    for (auto it = m_stop_notification_queue.begin();
+         it != m_stop_notification_queue.end();) {
----------------
`llvm::erase_if(m_stop_notification_queue, []{ return !begins_with_W_or_X;});`


================
Comment at: lldb/source/Plugins/Process/gdb-remote/GDBRemoteCommunicationServerLLGS.cpp:3264
   // Notify we attached by sending a stop packet.
-  return SendStopReasonForState(m_current_process->GetState());
+  return SendStopReasonForState(m_current_process->GetState(), false);
 }
----------------
add `/*force_synchronous=*/` here and elsewhere.


================
Comment at: lldb/source/Plugins/Process/gdb-remote/GDBRemoteCommunicationServerLLGS.cpp:3749
+    return SendErrorResponse(Status("No pending notification to ack"));
+  m_stop_notification_queue.pop_front();
+  if (!m_stop_notification_queue.empty())
----------------

The first message is sent as asynchronous notification but we keep it on the queue (and technically, the protocol assumes we may resend the asynchronous notification if we think client may have not gotten it). `vStopped` means client has processed it and is ready for the next one, so we pop the one that's been sent already and send the next one, wait for the next ACK and so on.
Yeah, it is confusing. Having a comment (with the explanation you just made) would help a lot. However, if you don't see any use case for the resending, we could also delete it, and use the standard queue pattern. Up to you...


================
Comment at: lldb/test/API/tools/lldb-server/TestLldbGdbServer.py:1443
+            m = self.expect_gdbremote_sequence()
+            del m["O_content"]
+            threads = [m]
----------------

Ok, I suppose I can live with that.


================
Comment at: lldb/test/API/tools/lldb-server/TestLldbGdbServer.py:1525
+        procs = self.prep_debug_monitor_and_inferior(
+                inferior_args=["thread:new"])
+        self.test_sequence.add_log_lines(

That's ok, a 60s wait is fine. I forgot there was a default sleep action -- I though the process would quit immediately...
