Like .Xr _Exit 3C , standard library termination is not done. .Xr atexit 3C functions are not called and various standard termination that occurs when calling .Xr exit 3C may not occur. .Pp Functions that are registered with .Fn at_quick_exit will be called in reverse order upon calling .Fn quick_exit . Functions registered with .Fn at_quick_exit will not be called at any other time. Functions that are registered with .Fn at_quick_exit should not make use of .Xr longjump 3C and related functions. .Pp After calling all registered functions, the .Fn quick_exit function will terminate the calling program and its exit status will be .Fa status . .Sh RETURN VALUES The .Fn quick_exit function does not return. .Pp The .Fn at_quick_exit function returns .Sy 0 on success. Otherwise, a non-zero error value is returned to indicate failure. .Sh ERRORS The .Fn at_quick_exit function may fail if: .Bl -tag -width Er .It Er ENOMEM Insufficient storage space is available. .El .Sh INTERFACE STABILITY .Sy Standard .Sh MT-LEVEL .Sy Safe .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr _Exit 3C , .Xr atexit 3C , .Xr exit 3C , .Xr attributes 5 , .Xr standards 5
