kill − send a signal to a process
kill [
−signal | −s signal ] pid
...
kill [ −L | -V, −−version ]
kill −l [ signal ]
The default signal for kill is TERM. Use −l or −L to list available signals. Particularly useful signals include HUP, INT, KILL, STOP, CONT, and 0. Alternate signals may be specified in three ways: −9 −SIGKILL −KILL. Negative PID values may be used to choose whole process groups; see the PGID column in ps command output. A PID of −1 is special; it indicates all processes except the kill process itself and init.
The signals listed below may be available for use with kill. When known constant, numbers and default behavior are shown.
Your shell (command line interpreter) may have a built-in kill command. You may need to run the command described here as /bin/kill to solve the conflict.
kill −9 −1
Kill all processes you can kill.
kill −l 11
Translate number 11 into a signal name.
kill -L
List the available signal choices in a nice table.
kill 123 543 2341 3453
Send the default signal, SIGTERM, to all those processes.
pkill(1), skill(1), kill(2), renice(1), nice(1), signal(7), killall(1).
This command meets appropriate standards. The −L flag is Linux-specific.
Albert Cahalan <albert@users.sf.net> wrote kill in 1999 to replace a bsdutils one that was not standards compliant. The util-linux one might also work correctly.
