This module contains functions to dump Python tracebacks explicitly, on a fault,
after a timeout, or on a user signal. Call :func:`faulthandler.enable` to
install fault handlers for the :const:`SIGSEGV`, :const:`SIGFPE`,
:const:`SIGABRT`, :const:`SIGBUS`, and :const:`SIGILL` signals. You can also
install fault handlers for the :const:`~signal.SIGSEGV`,
:const:`~signal.SIGFPE`, :const:`~signal.SIGABRT`, :const:`~signal.SIGBUS`, and
:const:`~signal.SIGILL` signals. You can also
enable them at startup by setting the :envvar:`PYTHONFAULTHANDLER` environment
variable or by using the :option:`-X` ``faulthandler`` command line option.

The fault handler is compatible with system fault handlers like Apport or the
Windows fault handler. The module uses an alternative stack for signal handlers
if the :c:func:`sigaltstack` function is available. This allows it to dump the
if the :c:func:`!sigaltstack` function is available. This allows it to dump the
traceback even on a stack overflow.

The fault handler is called on catastrophic cases and therefore can only use

Is this the same as https://docs.python.org/3/library/os.html#os._exit? Should this link to that, maybe?

I don't think so, it's calling the C one from unistd.h:

cpython/Modules/faulthandler.c

Line 11 in e0ab642

# include <unistd.h> // _exit()

cpython/Modules/faulthandler.c

Lines 591 to 592 in e0ab642

if (thread.exit)
_exit(1);

I think os._exit is just a very thin wrapper around the C one:

cpython/Modules/posixmodule.c

Lines 6613 to 6619 in e0ab642

static PyObject *
os__exit_impl(PyObject *module, int status)
/*[clinic end generated code: output=116e52d9c2260d54 input=5e6d57556b0c4a62]*/
{
_exit(status);
return NULL; /* Make gcc -Wall happy */
}

But yes, good point, they're not exactly the same!
cleanup like flushing file buffers.) If the function is called twice, the new
call replaces previous parameters and resets the timeout. The timer has a
sub-second resolution.
