Macro solana_sdk::custom_panic_default

macro_rules! custom_panic_default {
    () => { ... };
}

Define the default global panic handler.

This must be used if the entrypoint macro is not used, and no other panic handler has been defined; otherwise compilation will fail with a missing custom_panic symbol.

The default global allocator is enabled only if the calling crate has not disabled it using Cargo features as described below. It is only defined for BPF targets.

Cargo features

A crate that calls this macro can provide its own custom panic handler, or allow others to provide their own custom panic handler, by adding a custom-panic feature to its Cargo.toml. After enabling the feature, one may define their own panic handler.

A good way to reduce the final size of the program is to provide a custom_panic implementation that does nothing. Doing so will cut ~25kb from a noop program. That number goes down the more the programs pulls in Rust’s standard library for other purposes.

Defining a panic handler for Safecoin

The mechanism for defining a Safecoin panic handler is different from most Rust programs.

To define a panic handler one must define a custom_panic function with the #[no_mangle] attribute, as below:

#[cfg(all(feature = "custom-panic", target_os = "solana"))]
#[no_mangle]
fn custom_panic(info: &core::panic::PanicInfo<'_>) {
    $crate::msg!("{}", info);
}

The above is how Safecoin defines the default panic handler.
