Writing Device Drivers

Exiting kadb

To exit kadb(1M), use $q. On SPARC machines, this will exit to the ok prompt. On IA machines, you will be prompted to reboot the system.

kadb[0]: $q
Type `go' to resume
ok 

kadb(1M) can be resumed by typing go at the ok prompt.


Caution – Caution –

No other commands should be performed from the PROM if the system is to be resumed. PROM commands other than go can change system state that the Solaris 9 operating environment depends upon.


Staying at the kadb(1M) prompt for too long can cause the system to lose track of the time of day, and can cause network connections to time out.
