Java中的SIGSEGV可以不崩溃JVM吗？

Question

I'm using gdb to debug C code, which is being called from Java. I attach the gdb to running Java process and it works. Somewhat. The curios thing is GDB is periodically reporting SIGSEGV and it doesn't crash Java. I would expect the JVM to go down and generate hs_err_pid with information about the error. I am wondering if those faults are actually caused by gdb (no idea how) and don't really occur in the running code, or if under some circumstances Java can recover from SIGSEGV (no idea how).

EDIT: Here is full gdb output: https://pastebin.com/Mk44kWXQ

Example:

Can a SIGSEGV in Java not crash the JVM?

Sure, if a SIGSEGV occurs while executing Java code (not native code) it is most likely due to dereferencing a Java null . That can be trapped and turned into a NullPointerException and "thrown". An application can recover from this; ie by "catching" the exception.

I think that a SIGSEGV could also be triggered by a Java stack overflow causing the Java code to read or write an address in a stack's "red zone" memory segment.

Anyhow, there are definitely scenarios where the JVM's SIGSEGV signal handler may turn the SIGSEGV event into a Java exception. You will only get a JVM hard crash if that can't happen; eg if the thread that triggered the SIGSEGV was executing code in a native library when the event happened.
