synchronous freebsd print

 Sorry, if this clarification is too simple, but I
 thought freeBSD kernel implemented its own
 print function. and the man for fflush says it is
 in the standard C-library.
 and the kernel source has no defn for fflush.
 
 I saw lots of kernel related questions asked 
in this list, so I posted my question here. Please
correct me if I am wrong.

and Yes in the kernel code I have a "\n" at the end
of my print, still the print is not complete and 
the line next to it that causes the crash does
not give the result I want. Is this a common
scenario or am I doing something wrong.

This is a standard C question.

Look at fflush(3)
