.TH PANIC 10.2 .SH NAME panic \- abandon hope .SH SYNOPSIS .ta \w'\fLchar* 'u .B void panic(char *fmt, ...) .SH DESCRIPTION .I Panic writes a message to the console and causes the system to give up the ghost. It enables interrupts, dumps the kernel stack, and halts the current processor; if more than one, others will gradually come to a halt. Depending on configuration settings, the platform-dependent .I exit might reboot the system. The format .I fmt and associated arguments are the same as those for .IR print (10.2). .I Panic adds a prefix .L "panic: " and a trailing newline.
