Enum kernel::process::FaultAction

pub enum FaultAction {
    Panic,
    Restart,
    Stop,
}

The action the kernel should take when a process encounters a fault.

When an exception occurs during a process’s execution (a common example is a process trying to access memory outside of its allowed regions) the system will trap back to the kernel, and the kernel has to decide what to do with the process at that point.

The actions are separate from the policy on deciding which action to take. A separate process-specific policy should determine which action to take.

Variants

Panic

Generate a panic!() call and crash the entire system. This is useful for debugging applications as the error is displayed immediately after it occurs.

Restart

Attempt to cleanup and restart the process which caused the fault. This resets the process’s memory to how it was when the process was started and schedules the process to run again from its init function.

Stop

Stop the process by no longer scheduling it to run.
