.Os
|
|
.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm abort2
|
|
.Nd "abort process with diagnostics"
|
|
.Sh LIBRARY
|
|
.Lb libc
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In stdlib.h
|
|
.Ft void
|
|
.Fn abort2 "const char *why" "int nargs" "void **args"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn abort2
|
|
system call causes the process to be killed and the specified diagnostic
|
|
message (with arguments) to be delivered by the kernel to the
|
|
.Xr syslogd 8
|
|
daemon.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa why
|
|
argument points to a
|
|
.Dv NUL- Ns
|
|
terminated string specifying a reason of the program's termination
|
|
(maximum 128 characters long).
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa args
|
|
array contains pointers which will be logged numerically
|
|
(with the kernel's
|
|
.Ql %p
|
|
.Xr printf 9
|
|
format).
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa nargs
|
|
argument specifies the number of pointers in
|
|
.Fa args
|
|
(maximum 16).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn abort2
|
|
system call
|
|
is intended for use in situations where continuation of a process
|
|
is impossible or for other definitive reasons is unwanted, and normal
|
|
diagnostic channels cannot be trusted to deliver the message.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn abort2
|
|
function
|
|
never returns.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The process is killed with
|
|
.Dv SIGABRT
|
|
unless the arguments to
|
|
.Fn abort2
|
|
are invalid, in which case
|
|
.Dv SIGKILL
|
|
is used.
|
|
.Sh EXAMPLES
|
|
.Bd -literal -compact
|
|
#include <stdlib.h>
|
|
|
|
if (weight_kg > max_load) {
|
|
void *ptrs[3];
|
|
|
|
ptrs[0] = (void *)(intptr_t)weight_kg;
|
|
ptrs[1] = (void *)(intptr_t)max_load;
|
|
ptrs[2] = haystack;
|
|
abort2("Camel overloaded", 3, ptrs);
