Additional context
I think the problem is that the terminal STDIN/OUT are not mapped back when the program is abruptly closed with CTRL-C. Tried to follow the code, but not been able to track the exact bug location.
I've noticed this as well, and haven't gotten around to fixing it yet. I don't think it's a problem with the terminal (or probably even dsh) itself, but rather due to the waitpid syscall not unblocking the parent process properly after the child is interrupted.
That's just my theory though, I haven't dug into it too deeply yet. There are still quite a few bugs around blocking and waiting threads, and I've been meaning to refactor the way it works for a while.
Thanks for the comment. I'll try to check the syscall lead.
I did a little poking around this issue last night. Seems to be some weird issue with how the dead process is deleted after waitpid finishes. I'll whip out gdb and take a closer look in a bit.
This is proving to be a really weird bug. I stepped through it with gdb, and it looks like at some point in destroying the process, the stack ends up mangled somehow. Upon returning from the kstd::Arc destructor for one of its VMRegions, it jumps to a weird, unrelated section of code. It's not even freeing the VMRegion in question, there's still at least one strong reference left. So it's not because we're unmapping that memory or something.
