Feel free to ignore.

Say,

This message isn't very useful. Why do you need this message?

+
+    /* SEGV blocked during handler execution, delivered on return */
+    if (raise(SIGSEGV))
+        ksft_exit_fail_perror("raise");>>> +
+    ksft_print_msg("SEGV bypassed successfully\n");
You could simply do sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, NULL, &oldset) and check if
SIGSEGV is blocked in oldset. SIG_SETMASK has no effect if newset == NULL.


IMHO, isn't raising the signal, and the process not terminating, a stricter test? I have already included your described approach in
the last testcase; so, the test includes both ways: raising the
signal -> process not terminating, and checking blockage with sigprocmask().
