This is a linux_ppc specific bug, probably a day-one bug till relevant code was refactored by JDK-8255711 in 16.

Linux ppc signal handler does not install crash protector as other Linux based platforms do, e.g. linux_x86, that can result a crash while jfr tries to fill stack trace for other thread.
