pub fn abort() -> !🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (
core_intrinsics)This item is validated for IEC 61508 (SIL 2) and ISO 26262 (ASIL B).
Expand description
Aborts the execution of the process.
Note that, unlike most intrinsics, this is safe to call;
it does not require an unsafe block.
Therefore, implementations must not require the user to uphold
any safety invariants.
std::process::abort is to be preferred if possible,
as its behavior is more user-friendly and more stable.
The current implementation of intrinsics::abort is to invoke an invalid instruction,
on most platforms.
On Unix, the
process will probably terminate with a signal like SIGABRT, SIGILL, SIGTRAP, SIGSEGV or
SIGBUS. The precise behavior is not guaranteed and not stable.
