Ever Wondered how to panic a Linux Kernel? It is really easy. Here is your source code:
Quote from panic.c:
#define __NO_VERSION__
#include <linux/version.h>
#include <linux/kernel.h>
#include <linux/module.h>
int init_module(void)
{
panic(" insert lame excuse here");
return 0;
}
Then compile it with gcc -I/usr/src/linux/include -D__KERNEL__ -DMODULE -o panic.o -c panic.c.
Now just run insmod panic.o.
Okay, So I was a little bored tonight.
This code does not compile on 2.6.23 and 2.6.24.
