From 09f4d78ab0af0973e1a49c10eb7bf977c68cc3aa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Date: Wed, 19 Aug 2015 15:16:08 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] perf top: Show backtrace when handling a SIGSEGV on --stdio mode It was just freezing instead of informing about the SEGV, fix it and also print a backtrace, just like in the TUI mode and in 'perf trace'.
