For instance, a virtual thread can be suspended at a JVMTI event. If the virtual thread is not suspended and is not current then the `JVMTI_ERROR_THREAD_NOT_SUSPENDED` error code is returned. If the virtual thread was suspended at unmounted state then the `JVMTI_ERROR_OPAQUE_FRAME` error code is returned.

> The JDB test `vmTestbase/nsk/jdb/kill/kill001/kill001.java` has been problem-listed and will be fixed by the corresponding debugger enhancement which is going to adopt JDWP/JDI specs to new behavior of the JVMTI `StopThread` related to virtual threads.
