Subject: [PATCH v2 09/11] util: Add abort_with_msg() and ASSERT_WITH_MSG() helpers
Date: Mon, 17 Mar 2025 20:24:22 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250317092424.1461719-10-david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250317092424.1461719-1-david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>

We already have the ASSERT() macro which will abort() passt based on a
condition.  It always has a fixed error message based on its location and
the asserted expression.  We have some upcoming cases where we want to
customise the message when hitting an assert.

Add abort_with_msg() and ASSERT_WITH_MSG() helpers to allow this.
