// JVM uses SEGV to preempt threads. All threads do a load from a known address
// periodically. When runtime needs to preempt threads, it unmaps the page.
// Threads start triggering SEGV one by one. The signal handler blocks
// threads while runtime does its thing. Then runtime maps the page again
// and resumes the threads.
// Previously this pattern conflicted with stop-the-world machinery,
// because it briefly reset SEGV handler to SIG_DFL.
// As the consequence JVM just silently died.

// This test sets memory flushing rate to maximum, then does series of
// "benign" SEGVs that are handled by signal handler, and ensures that
// the process survive.
