NAME
panic – abandon hope

SYNOPSIS
void    panic(char *fmt, ...)

DESCRIPTION
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 exit might reboot the system. The format fmt and associated arguments are the same as those for print(9). Panic adds a prefix panic: and a trailing newline.
