Thanks, one of the sent v2 patches has dropped both of them. yesterday, based on the demo code pasted in this email thread, I went further to implement a cleaner user-space 'efault' handler, with this handler, it is able to continue next test, and without this handler, just skip the test, so, it can be used to add future test cases for sigaction/sigsetjmp/siglongjmp. besides, a multiple 'run' support is added too, will share the new code as a new standalone patchset later but I'm not expecting it is mergeable. Thanks, Zhangjin > > Willy
