1 //! Panic support for libcore
3 //! The core library cannot define panicking, but it does *declare* panicking. This
4 //! means that the functions inside of libcore are allowed to panic, but to be
5 //! useful an upstream crate must define panicking for libcore to use. The current
6 //! interface for panicking is:
9 //! fn panic_impl(pi: &core::panic::PanicInfo<'_>) -> !
13 //! This definition allows for panicking with any general message, but it does not
14 //! allow for failing with a `Box<Any>` value. (`PanicInfo` just contains a `&(dyn Any + Send)`,
15 //! for which we fill in a dummy value in `PanicInfo::internal_constructor`.)
16 //! The reason for this is that libcore is not allowed to allocate.
18 //! This module contains a few other panicking functions, but these are just the
19 //! necessary lang items for the compiler. All panics are funneled through this
20 //! one function. The actual symbol is declared through the `#[panic_handler]` attribute.
