> In early stage of initialization, HotSpot doesn't handle SIGQUIT. The default signal preposition on Linux is to quit the process and generate coredump.
>
> There are 2 applications for this signal.
> 1. There's a handshake protocol between sun.tools.attach and HotSpot. VirtualMachineImpl sends SIGQUIT(3) if the AttachListener has not been initialized. It expects "Signal Dispatcher" to handle SIGQUIT and create AttachListener.
> 2. POSIX systems use SIGQUIT as SIGBREAK. After AttachListener is up, HotSpot will reinterpret the signal for thread dump.
>
> It is possible that HotSpot is still initializing in Threads::create_vm() when SIGQUIT arrives. We should change JVM_HANDLE_XXX_SIGNAL to catch SIGQUIT and ignore it. It is installed os::init_2() and should cover the early stage of initialization. Later on, os::initialize_jdk_signal_support() still overwrites the signal handler of SIGQUIT if ReduceSignalUsage is false(default).

> Before, this patch, once initialization takes long time, jcmd may quit the java process.
