Summary
trap_threadsreturn protection/query failures to inline-hook callersRationale
The Windows trap manager currently retains each target page for the process lifetime. If that virtual address is later recycled, an unrelated execute fault on the page is resumed without changing context and repeats indefinitely. The protection transaction also ignores query/protection failures, allowing enable or disable to report success when no patch was applied.
The patch keeps the same-page retry behavior only while a transaction has deliberately removed execute permission, then removes the trap record before returning on every path.
Validation
The native SafetyHook suites pass with MinGW and MSVC. The downstream DetourModKit regression suite also covers recycled-address trap cleanup and failed enable/disable state under MinGW Debug/Release, MSVC Debug/Release, and MSVC ASan.
