Function Documentation

rtems_fatal_error_occurred()

RTEMS_NO_RETURN void rtems_fatal_error_occurred

(

uint32_t

fatal_code

)

Invokes the fatal error handler.

Parameters

fatal_code

is the fatal code.

This directive processes fatal errors. The fatal source is set to INTERNAL_ERROR_RTEMS_API. The fatal code is set to the value of the fatal_code parameter.

Notes

This directive is deprecated and should not be used in new code. It is recommended to not use this directive since error locations cannot be uniquely identified. A recommended alternative directive is rtems_fatal().

Constraints

The following constraints apply to this directive:

• The directive may be called from within any runtime context.
• The directive will not return to the caller.
• The directive invokes the fatal error extensions in extension forward order.
• The directive does not invoke handlers registered by atexit() or on_exit().
• The directive may terminate the system.

rtems_fatal_source_text()

const char * rtems_fatal_source_text

(

rtems_fatal_source

fatal_source

)

Returns a descriptive text for the fatal source.

Parameters

fatal_source

is the fatal source.

Return values

?	The fatal_source parameter value was not a fatal source.

Returns

Returns a descriptive text for the fatal source. The text for the fatal source is the enumerator constant name.

Constraints

The following constraints apply to this directive:

• The directive may be called from within any runtime context.

rtems_internal_error_text()

const char * rtems_internal_error_text

(

rtems_fatal_code

internal_error_code

)

Returns a descriptive text for the internal error code.

Parameters

internal_error_code

is the internal error code.

Return values

?	The internal_error_code parameter value was not an internal error code.

Returns

Returns a descriptive text for the internal error code. The text for the internal error code is the enumerator constant name.

Constraints

The following constraints apply to this directive:

• The directive may be called from within any runtime context.

RTEMS_PRINTFLIKE()

RTEMS_NO_RETURN RTEMS_PRINTFLIKE	(	1	,
		2
	)		const

Prints the message and invokes the fatal error handler.

Parameters

fmt	is the message format.
...	is a list of optional parameters required by the message format.

This directive prints a message via printk() specified by the fmt parameter and optional parameters and then invokes the fatal error handler. The fatal source is set to RTEMS_FATAL_SOURCE_PANIC. The fatal code is set to the value of the fmt parameter value.

Constraints

The following constraints apply to this directive:

• The directive may be called from within any runtime context.
• The directive will not return to the caller.
• The directive invokes the fatal error extensions in extension forward order.
• The directive does not invoke handlers registered by atexit() or on_exit().
• The directive may terminate the system.

rtems_shutdown_executive()

RTEMS_NO_RETURN void rtems_shutdown_executive

(

uint32_t

fatal_code

)

Invokes the fatal error handler.

Parameters

fatal_code

is the fatal code.

This directive processes fatal errors. The fatal source is set to RTEMS_FATAL_SOURCE_EXIT. The fatal code is set to the value of the fatal_code parameter.

Constraints

The following constraints apply to this directive:

• The directive may be called from within any runtime context.
• The directive will not return to the caller.
• The directive invokes the fatal error extensions in extension forward order.
• The directive does not invoke handlers registered by atexit() or on_exit().
• The directive may terminate the system.
