At present if sandbox crashes it prints a message and tries to exit. But with the recently introduced signal handler, it often seems to get stuck in a loop until the stack overflows:

Hello Simon,
do you have a reproducible example? I never have seen this.
Corrupting gd could cause an endless recursive loop, as these lines follow printing the observed string:
printf("pc = 0x%lx, ", pc); printf("pc_reloc = 0x%lx\n\n", pc - gd->reloc_off);
If we remove SA_NODEFER from the signal mask in arch/sandbox/cpu/os.c, recursion cannot occur anymore. If a segmentation violation occurs inside the handler it will be delegated to the default handler.
Furthermore we could consider removing the signal handler at the start of os_signal_action().
Best regards
Heinrich
The signal handler is only useful for a few tests, as I understand it. Make it optional.
