Ding! That’s it. This program does use SIGALRM. I wouldn’t have thought it would be enabled at this point, but apparently it is because I got lots of sigalarm halts during the .so loading.
Further, if I run in lldb with process handle -n false -p false -s false SIGALRM then the debugger seems to run fine without stopping during dlopen(). The SIGALRM itself isn’t important to the operation of the program. With this knowledge I can probably create a simple testcase. Would this be considered an lldb bug? If so should I submit a testcase in some way? thanks! --steve The lover of nature is he whose inward and outward senses are still truly adjusted to each other; who has retained the spirit of infancy even into the era of manhood. > On Apr 17, 2018, at 1:12 PM, Pavel Labath <lab...@google.com> wrote: > > It's a bit of a wild guess, but is it possible that you (or one of the > libraries you use) are doing anything with signals (SIGALRM or such?).
