I just loaded haiku image in QEMU and when the system was loading, it
crashed into the KDL with this message:
PANIC: free: asked to free invalid address 0xdeadbeef
Its a joke, isn't?
No it's simply a human readable value, that's easily searchable in the code.
IE to indicate an uninitialised variable, pointer etc. Other popular values
are 0xcafebabe, 0xb00bbabe, 0x1234567 ... :)
euan.
