kill(2)



kill send signal to a process (kill = 37.; not in assembler)
(process number in r0)
sys kill; sig kill(pid, sig);
sends the signal to the process specified by the process number in r0. See signal (II) for a list of signals. The sending and receiving processes must have the same effective user ID, otherwise this call is restricted to the super-user. If the process number is 0, the signal is sent to all other processes which have the same controlling typewriter and user ID. In no case is it possible for a process to kill itself. signal (II), kill (I) The error bit (c-bit) is set if the process does not have the same effective user ID and the user is not super-user, or if the process does not exist. From C, −1 is returned.
