Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init!

Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init!

Hi,

When the kernel boots up and mounts the root file system, 
the kernel start to do "execve("/sbin/AP",argv_init,envp_init)" to run a AP.
But in my case, it panics when kernel tries to do the "execve("/sbin/AP",argv_init,envp_init)".
The kernel panic message shows " Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init! ".
What situation will trigger such kernel panic?

Thanks,
KJ

Well, bogus values for argv_init and envp_init would be the first thing I would check...

A common reason is that /sbin/AP has a seg fault or some other faults.  I
would debug AP program in a stable environment and then make sure I can see
the first "printf" from AP.  From there, you can debug AP with printf.

"init" is started with pid 1. If this process is killed you get this
message.
it could be possible that your init kernel thread is returning, exiting etc.
