ABORT(3) Minix Programmer's Manual ABORT(3)
NAME
abort - generate a fault
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdlib.h>
void abort(void)
DESCRIPTION
Abort executes an instruction which is illegal in user mode. This causes
a signal that normally terminates the process with a core dump, which may
be used for debugging.
SEE ALSO
sigaction(2), exit(2).
DIAGNOSTICS
Usually ``abort - core dumped'' from the shell.
BUGS
The abort() function does not flush standard I/O buffers. Use fflush(3).
