How about defining a new PV: '$true'.
If we have a constant word in the while loop, then yes, it might be a
missconfiguration and it is good to have the warning.
Having a '$true' PV will mean that we want an infinite loop and
there's no need to print the warning.
The '$true' will make the config more easy to read as opposed to
defining a variable just for the purpose of creating an infinite loop.
Thanks,
Ovidiu

The config file used for testing:
#!KAMAILIO
route{
while( true ) {
exit;
}
exit;
}
How can I define a simple infinite loop without getting a warning in the logs.
I don't want to define a variable just for the while loop and test it.
$var(true) = 1;
while ($var(true)) {
...
}
Is there a specific PV like '$null' or a specific keyword?
No, you have to live with the warning.
In most cases infinite loops are a bug and hence we better have the
warning (this is a sip router and not a general programing language).
