k_oops

#define k_oops

(

)

Value:

z_except_reason(K_ERR_KERNEL_OOPS)

Fatally terminate a thread.

This should be called when a thread has encountered an unrecoverable runtime condition and needs to terminate. What this ultimately means is determined by the _fatal_error_handler() implementation, which will be called will reason code K_ERR_KERNEL_OOPS.

If this is called from ISR context, the default system fatal error handler will treat it as an unrecoverable system error, just like k_panic().

k_panic

#define k_panic

(

)

Value:

z_except_reason(K_ERR_KERNEL_PANIC)

Fatally terminate the system.

This should be called when the Zephyr kernel has encountered an unrecoverable runtime condition and needs to terminate. What this ultimately means is determined by the _fatal_error_handler() implementation, which will be called will reason code K_ERR_KERNEL_PANIC.
