Let's say I have signal(3) handler set. And I know exactly what instruction caused SEGV and why.
Is there a way to access from signal handler CPU registers as they were before signal, modify some of them, clear the signal and continue from the instruction that caused SEGV initially? I see that if signal handler doesn't terminate the process signal is being generated again and again. I understand it the way that the faulty instruction is being rerun if signal handler didn't terminate the process. rusage.ru_nsignals is also being incremented every time signal handler is being called. Yuri PS: Of course I understand why SEGVs happen in general. I am trying to understand if it's possible to use SEGV beyond the way it's commonly used. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
