#9851: Forkbomb creates Kernel Screen of Death -----------------------+--------------------------- Reporter: mdickie | Owner: nobody Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: - General | Version: R1/alpha4.1 Keywords: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Has a Patch: 0 Platform: All | -----------------------+--------------------------- {{{ /* Compile using gcc forkbomb.c -o forkbomb */ #include <unistd.h> int main() { while(1) fork(); return 0; } }}} Tested on VirtualBox which needs multiple instances of the forkbomb. Using {{{ :(){ forkbomb|forkbomb& };: }}} After some times typing it Kernel Screen of Death appears. Also tested on an old Notebook PC Dell Latitude C640 but there you simply have to run forkbomb. BTW: It would be great if haiku would call the Screen of Death KSOD. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/9851> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
