What happen if my thread in process crash??

Hi All ,

I am using linux fedora.
I have a process with at least 15 threads in it ..I tried n saw that if any of my thread crashes then i will get a process dump ..

Is there any possibilty that i only get a thread dump instead of my whole process dump ?? i.e my all thread keep working if my only 1 thread crash ....

I don't believe so, but if anyone knows better, I'm all ears

This is because the threads are part of the same process space, so it doesn't normally make sense to keep going if a thread has caused a fault signal (especially if it was a segment violation).

If you really need the other threads to keep going, your best bet might be to use pthread_sigmask to catch the signal that caused the fault and put the thread to sleep (and probably log the failure).

Thanks alot ....
