FAIL(1) General Commands Manual FAIL(1)
NAME
fail – crash in various possible ways
SYNOPSIS
fail [-123Oacdikrst]
DESCRIPTION
fail crashes in various possible ways to help you debug how other
software reacts to this.
The options are as follows:
-1 Return with exit status -1.
-2 Return with exit status 2.
-3 Return with exit status 111.
-O Allocate memory in an infinite loop, to trigger an out of memory
situation. A dot is printed after each 16MB allocation.
Warning: this may lock up your machine and/or result in killing
other processes, too. Use with caution.
-a Call abort().
-c Violate a seccomp() strict mode restriction.
-d Divide by zero.
-i Execute an illegal instruction.
-k Raise SIGKILL.
-r Trigger an infinite recursion.
-s Trigger a segmentation fault by writing to a null pointer.
-t Trigger GCC's __builtin_trap().
EXIT STATUS
The fail utility never returns 0, because failure is inevitable.
SEE ALSO
false(1), seccomp(2), abort(3)
