ok i need some help🤗

i have a multithreaded c application.. i run into an error where i can not allocate more shared memory so i call the fatal error handler.. so far so good, error detected.. now in the error handler i want to

- log some message

- write a coredum

- end all processes i.e terminate the application

i do this by sending a sigterm to all processes in the group with:

kill(0, SIGTERM)

and then next call is

abort()

(this should dumpe the core)

however it looks like the process never reaches abort, i dont see a coredump ...

looks like it receives the SIGTERM before SIGABORT

how can achieve my goal?
