I'm OK with this since it doesn't actually matter, now that the signal-catching behaviour is optional. But as I understand it, it will mean that the second exception is reported, but not the first? In other words, any core dump will be 'incorrect' in that it is not suitable for postmortem debugging. > > diff --git a/arch/sandbox/cpu/os.c b/arch/sandbox/cpu/os.c > index 0d21827e1b..9a73ae3b18 100644 > --- a/arch/sandbox/cpu/os.c > +++ b/arch/sandbox/cpu/os.c > @@ -226,7 +226,7 @@ int os_setup_signal_handlers(void) > > act.sa_sigaction = os_signal_handler; > sigemptyset(&act.sa_mask); > - act.sa_flags = SA_SIGINFO | SA_NODEFER; > + act.sa_flags = SA_SIGINFO; > if (sigaction(SIGILL, &act, NULL) || > sigaction(SIGBUS, &act, NULL) || > sigaction(SIGSEGV, &act, NULL)) > -- > 2.30.2 > Regards, Simon
