Comment (by mmlr):
You could try provoking a tripple fault, which should reset the CPU. It
may or may not cause a power cycle on your hardware as well.
This can be done by overwriting many critical things so that fault
handling will result in faults again. One way to do it is to corrupt the
interrupt handler. In KDL, look up the address for the {{{int_bottom}}}
symbol and overwrite it with 0:
{{{
kdebug> symbol int_bottom
0xffffffff8015131c 185 kernel_x86_64:int_bottom
0xffffffff801513d5 469 kernel_x86_64:int_bottom_user
kdebug> expr *0xffffffff8015131c = 0
0 (0x0)
kdebug> continue
}}}
At which point the system should reset.
