There was a problem hiding this comment.
Maybe add a comment that this field is not actually ignored for SS_DISABLE on MUSL?

That's weird - I have added that comment, I must have forgotten to push that change.

The MUSL implementation of sigaltstack checks that the ss.ss_size is larger or equal than the MINSIGSTKSZ even when the ss_flags is set to SS_DISABLE even though Linux man page for sigaltstack states that when this flag is set, all other ss fields are ignored. We were not setting the ss_size in this case and it was causing a memory leak for each thread that has terminated on MUSL based Linux distros like Alpine. Glibc implementation doesn't check the ss_size when the SS_DISABLE is set so the problem was really MUSL specific.
