.. _Terminate:
Announcing a Fatal Error
------------------------
The :c:func:`_Terminate()` internal error handler is invoked when the
application or the executive itself determines that a fatal error has occurred
or a final system state is reached (for example after :c:func:`rtems_fatal()`
or :c:func:`exit()`).
The first action of the internal error handler is to call the fatal extension of
the user extensions. For the initial extensions the following conditions are
required
- a valid stack pointer and enough stack space,
- a valid code memory, and
- valid read-only data.
For the initial extensions the read-write data (including .bss segment) is not
required on single processor configurations. In SMP configurations, however,
the read-write data must be initialized since this function must determine the
state of the other processors and request them to shut-down if necessary.
Non-initial extensions require in addition valid read-write data. The board
support package (BSP) may install an initial extension that performs a system
reset. In this case the non-initial extensions will be not called.
The fatal extensions are called with three parameters:
- the fatal source,
- a legacy parameter which is always set to :c:macro:`false`, and
- an error code with a fatal source dependent content.
Once all fatal extensions executed, the system state is set to
:c:macro:`SYSTEM_STATE_TERMINATED`.
The final step is to call the CPU port specific :c:func:`_CPU_Fatal_halt()`.
