I read Amit Singh's article here:
http://www.osxbook.com/book/bonus/chapter5/panic/
I don't have immediate access to his larger treatise, perhaps he
talks about it more there, but in the above article, he includes the
panic routine for UNIX circa 1973.
I was wondering if there is a single panic routine in Darwin, akin to
panic.c in Linux, and if so, where is it? I note, for example, that
the Apple source for Libc has a panic.c and a panic routine within.
But the panic routine in debug.c in the xnu source *looks* like it
might be the "main" one. It seems that Apple makes it very hard to
download the entire source tree in one shot - I haven't gotten around
to searching the whole source tree for examples.
I'm just looking for answers to very simple questions. I've been
tasked with a small presentation to a mostly non-technical audience,
but one that can make sense of a small amount of source code and
wants to get a slightly deeper flavor than the casual user. I of
course want to know more about it as well.
