.In sys/param.h
.In sys/systm.h
.Fn KASSERT expression msg
.Sh DESCRIPTION
In a kernel compiled with
.Cd "options INVARIANTS" ,
the
.Fn KASSERT
macro tests the given
.Fa expression
and if it is false,
calls the
.Xr panic 9
function, terminating the running system.
.Pp
In a kernel that does not have
.Cd "options INVARIANTS" ,
the
.Fn KASSERT
macro is defined to be a no-op.
The
second argument is a
.Xr printf 9
format string and its arguments,
enclosed in parentheses.
.Sh EXAMPLES
The kernel function
.Fn vput
must not be called with a
.Dv NULL
pointer.
.Bd -literal -offset indent
void
vput(vp)
struct vnode *vp;
{
struct proc *p = curproc;
KASSERT(vp != NULL, ("vput: null vp"));
...
