I think that because rdtsc is volatile, the load of 'pass' won't be
moved before it by the compiler. OTOH pass itself is not marked volatile and we
are relying on the compiler infering that it is volatile from the signal
handler instead of assuming it is 0.

To be on the safe side we could mark pass as volatile or use the atomic
functions. However see below.

So if we segfault for any other reason some wierd stuff could
happen. Wouldn't it be easier to fork a child process and check if it is
killed by SIGSEGV?

It would be easier for me to reason about at least.
