When FailureSignalHandler is interrupted by another signal, the second signal handler checks to see if it is running in the same thread as a previous handler. If so, it invokes InvokeDefaultSignalHandler(signal_number), and sleeps forever. Due to the sleep, the second signal handler never exits and the process is stuck in this state until it is killed with a SIGKILL.

What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Run the process under gdb, and put a breakpoint in FailureSignalHandler. 2. Send a signal to the process (SIGTERM/SIGABRT). 3. After the above breakpoint is hit, send another signal. After resuming, you can see that the process sleeps forever.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead? The process sleeps in that state forever.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? glog-0.3.3. Saw the problem both on ubuntu and centos-7.

Please provide any additional information below. Attaching a patch that should hopefully fix the problem.
