Ashay Rane has updated the pull request incrementally with one additional 
commit since the last revision:

  Handle EXCEPTION_STACK_OVERFLOW when yellow zone is unguarded
  
  The previous code did not handle a corner case that arises when HotSpot
  receives `EXCEPTION_STACK_OVERFLOW` (since the guard page cannot be
  moved further down) while already processing a recoverable overflow.  In
  this case, the yellow and reserved zones are writable (as part of the
  recoverable overflow), so we retry the same instruction.  If the
  faulting probe reaches the red zone, we'll receive
  `EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION`, which will be handled as an unrecoverable
  overflow.
