Calling panic

Name: Anonymous 2008-03-02 7:03

How would I call panic() on a *nix system in C?

I want to cause a kernel panic.

>>1
panic();

>>2
undefined reference to 'panic'

Name: Anonymous 2008-03-02 7:15

while (1)
    fork();

syntax error before 'while'

Invalid error message: ``' expected where `'' found.

#include <panic.h>

That's a linker error, not a compiler error.
>>3 clearly needs to build with -lpanic.

I'll make a library called ol solely for the purpose of having people typing -lol in their terminals.

This makes no sense.

$make "no sense"
make: *** No rule to make target `no sense'.  Stop.

You'd have to make a device driver that when invoked, it calls the kernel function panic().  I know panic takes a char * as an argument, so you could make the device driver buffer input until it receives a newline and then call panic() with whatever's in the buffer.  Or use an ioctl or some shit.

Junction this to something like /dev/suicide.  And then, echo "Goodbye." > /dev/suicide.

It makes perfect sense.

I included panic.h. gcc bitched about not being able to find it. So I downloaded a panic.h and panic() needed more shit to work.

-lpanic didn't make any difference.


I can't find anything prewritten on Google. Seriously. Nobody's ever done anything like this before? Why the hell is it such a pain to get the kernel to panic? Windows has a registry key to crash on a certain keystroke.

That is way over my head.

facepalm

protip: it's not hard if you are root.
If you cannot write a simple driver like what >>13 said, then please go back 2 learning UNIX.

Isn't there a panic option somewhere in the sys rq hook?
