:When I resize the terminal window, while being at the ddb prompt inside a
:vkernel, the ddb stops responding. That is, I hit keys but they don't appea=
:r at
:the prompt. The vkernel is in a 'pause' state and the only way to shut it d=
:own
:is by kill'ing -9 it. Mind that this only happens if I pass >1 as the numbe=
:r of
:CPUs to emulate, so it must be some kind of SMP issue. The problem is 100%
:reproducible, but I couldn't find a pattern of resizes to trigger. Still, 3=
:-5
:vertical resizes up/down usually suffice.

:Cheers,

So far I have not been able to reproduce the issue. Here's a patch
that just adds some debugging write()'s to the SIGWINCH path in the
vkernel.
When running normally you should see "WXYZ" appear on the console.
If you resize while you are in DDB you should only see "W" appear,
then when you 'cont' from DDB you should see the "XYZ".
If while in DDB the "XYZ" or even just the "X" occurs, then pending
interrupts are improperly being processed while in DDB mode. The
kernel will not block the actual SIGWINCH kernel (hence the "W"
appears), but the interrupt made pending by signalintr() should
not run until normal operation is resumed via 'cont'.
So the question is, what do you get when you get the freeze?
