.Dt SPLASSERT 9
.Sh NAME
.Nm SPLASSERT
.Nd kernel spl level verification macro
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Cd options INVARIANTS
.Cd options INVARIANT_SUPPORT
.Fn SPLASSERT level "const char *msg"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Bf -symbolic
This API is deprecated.
Use mutexes to protect data structures instead.
See
.Xr mutex 9
for more information.
.Ef
.Pp
In a kernel compiled with both "options INVARIANTS"
and "options INVARIANT_SUPPORT",
the
.Fn SPLASSERT
macro compares the current spl level of the kernel with the spl
.Fa level
specified in the macro
.Fn SPLASSERT .
If the specified
.Fa level
is not active
.Fn SPLASSERT
calls the
.Fn KASSERT
macro with the
.Fa msg ,
terminating the running system.
.Pp
In a kernel that does not have both "options INVARIANTS"
and "options INVARIANT_SUPPORT",
the
.Fn SPLASSERT
macro is defined to be a no-op.
.Pp
The behaviour of
.Fn SPLASSERT
is tunable by means of the
.Xr sysctl 8
knob kern.splassertmode.
When set to 0 the
.Fn SPLASSERT
macro is defined to be a no-op.
When set to 1 the
.Fn SPLASSERT
macro is defined to log information to the console.
When set to 2 the
.Fn SPLASSERT
macro is defined to
.Xr panic 9 .
.Sh EXAMPLES
The kernel function
.Fn rtalloc
must be called at
.Fn splnet :
.Bd -literal -offset indent
void
rtalloc(ro)
register struct route *ro;
{
SPLASSERT(net, "rtalloc()");
rtalloc_ign(ro, 0UL);
}
