should divide-by-zero generate a SIGFPE?
As some of you have noticed, I've been slowly migrating some of the old
src/regress tests to the new atf format. I've discovered that the test
for SIGFPE in src/regress/lib/libc/siginifo/sigfpe/ doesn't work. It
attempts trigger a signal by
{
double d = strtod("0", NULL);
...
sigaction(SIGFPE, &sa, NULL);
printf("%g\n", 1 / d);
...
But the routine specified in sa.sa_sigaction does not get called, and
the test fails.
So, is this expected behavior? I did a quick bug search and didn't find
anything relevant.
If this is expected, is there some other way to reliably generate a
SIGFPE?
BTW, if it matters, I'm doing this on port-amd64.
