Hmmm, our linter doesn't complain about this?

Why would it? It's a common C++ idiom.

Hacked together a crummy workaround. I'll refine it further but first let's see if the basic approach works: https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-test-pull-request/619/ |

Having to polyfill atomic makes me sad. Otherwise LGTM. |

LGTM, if it works |
Before this commit, sending a SIGUSR1 at program exit could trigger a hard to reproduce race condition where `v8::Debug::DebugBreak(isolate)` got called when the isolate was in the process of being torn down. A similar race condition is in theory possible when sending signals to two threads simultaneously but I haven't been able to reproduce that myself (and I tried, oh how I tried.) This commit fixes the race condition by turning `node_isolate` into a `std::atomic` and using it as an ad hoc synchronization primitive in places where that is necessary. A bare minimum std::atomic polyfill is added for OS X because Apple wouldn't be Apple if things just worked out of the box.

@bnoordhuis ... is this something that should go into LTS or not? |
