OK. It is not a complete fix but hopefully the one people hit the most. I have also seen unreproducible crash(es) on a completion CTRL-C myself. > The big problem is to allow operations that read through the file system > (like completion) to be interrupted without running unsafe functions from > a signal handler. I do not see the problem, readline already does not use SA_RESTART and the application also gets SIGINT passed by _rl_handle_signal so it aborts the completion reading on its own, as GDB does by the QUIT macro. > It does the user no good to keep setting the "I got SIGINT" flag if he's > trying to complete files on a dead or otherwise unreachable file server. The syscall should get EINTR without SA_RESTART. But I admit I may not see the problem now.
