I added a comment as requested, however it is redundant with the comment above the function definition.
| // Disables the custom signal handlers installed by Rust for stack-overflow handling. With those custom signal handlers processes ignore the first SIGBUS and SIGSEGV signal they receive. | ||

could you please add a test for this?

I added a test for the sleep utility, which relies on this function working as intended. I verified that the test fails if I revert my commit adding this function.
My intent was to not change more code than necessary, however I think kill() and kill_with_custom_signal() could be a single function. Same thing for try_kill() and try_kill_with_custom_signal.
Please also note that I'm a complete beginner in Rust.

Edit: as far as I understand, I can either enable The drawback if I move disable_rust_signal_handlers to lib.rs is that I'll need to add the nix crate as dependency in all utilities: Which option do you prefer? |

I fixed the nix dependency issue by moving disable_rust_signal_handlers from uucore_procs/src/lib.rs to src/uucore/src/lib/lib.rs ( as explained in https://users.rust-lang.org/t/proc-macros-using-third-party-crate/42465/3 ). |
