None of the mmap/mprotect/munmap syscalls were given arguments in the high memory 0x7fffffff0000 and up. gdb (with default signal stop/print/pass semantics) does not report any signals prior to the kernel bug being tripped, so I doubt the alternate signal stack is actually used. When I run the same dotnet binary on the host (eg, on "bare metal"), the host kernel seems happy and dotnet runs as expected.
