Svc::FatalHandler Component

Svc::FatalHandler Component

1. Introduction

The Svc::FatalHandler is responsible for handling FATAL event notifications from the system.

2. Requirements

The requirements for Svc::FatalHandler are as follows:

Requirement	Description	Verification Method
FH-001	The Svc::FatalHandler component shall handle FATAL notifications	Unit Test
FH-002	The Svc::FatalHandler component shall shut down the Unix process	Unit Test
FH-002	The Svc::FatalHandler component shall suspend the thread calling FATAL	Unit Test

3. Design

3.1 Context

3.1.1 Component Diagram

The Svc::FatalHandler component has the following component diagram:

3.1.2 Ports

The Svc::FatalHandler component uses the following port types:

Port Data Type	Name	Direction	Kind	Usage
Svc::Fatal	FatalReceive	Input	Synch	Receive FATAL notifications

3.2 Functional Description

For Unix variants, it delays for one second before exiting with a segmentation fault. This allows time for the FATAL to propagate to the ground system so the user can see what event occurred and also generates a core for debugging (assuming ulimit is set correctly). For VxWorks, it suspends the calling thread. Projects can replace this component with another that does project-specific behavior like resets.
