NAME
kill
 - terminate or signal a process
 
SYNOPSIS
[-s signal_name
]
pid ...
-l
[exit_status
]
-signal_name
pid ...
-signal_number
pid ...
 
DESCRIPTION
The
utility sends a signal to the processes specified by the
pid
operands.
Only the super-user may send signals to other users' processes.
The options are as follows:
- -s signal_name
- 
A symbolic signal name specifying the signal to be sent instead of the
default
TERM
 
- -l [exit_status
]
- 
If no operand is given, list the signal names; otherwise, write
the signal name corresponding to
exit_status
 
- -signal_name
- 
A symbolic signal name specifying the signal to be sent instead of the
default
TERM
 
- -signal_number
- 
A non-negative decimal integer, specifying the signal to be sent instead
of the default
TERM
 
The following PIDs have special meanings:
- -1
- 
If superuser, broadcast the signal to all processes; otherwise broadcast
to all processes belonging to the user.
Some of the more commonly used signals:
- 1
- 
HUP (hang up)
- 2
- 
INT (interrupt)
- 3
- 
QUIT (quit)
- 6
- 
ABRT (abort)
- 9
- 
KILL (non-catchable, non-ignorable kill)
- 14
- 
ALRM (alarm clock)
- 15
- 
TERM (software termination signal)
Some shells may provide a builtin
command which is similar or identical to this utility.
Consult the
builtin(1)
manual page.

Ex -std
 
EXAMPLES
Terminate
the processes with PIDs 142 and 157:
"kill 142 157"
Send the hangup signal
(SIGHUP
)
to the process with PID 507:
"kill -s HUP 507"
Terminate the process group with PGID 117:
"kill -- -117"
