.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
.I Kill
|
||
|
|
prints commands that will cause all processes called
|
||
|
|
.I name
|
||
|
|
and owned by the current user to be terminated.
|
||
|
|
Use the
|
||
|
|
.B send
|
||
|
|
command of
|
||
|
|
.IR rio (1),
|
||
|
|
or pipe the output of
|
||
|
|
.I kill
|
||
|
|
into
|
||
|
|
.IR rc (1)
|
||
|
|
to execute the commands.
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
.I Kill
|
||
|
|
suggests sending a
|
||
|
|
.B "kill"
|
||
|
|
note to the process; the same
|
||
|
|
message delivered to the process's
|
||
|
|
.B ctl
|
||
|
|
file (see
|
||
|
|
.IR proc (3))
|
||
|
|
is a surer, if heavy handed, kill,
|
||
|
|
but is necessary if the offending process is
|
||
|
|
ignoring notes.
|
||
|
|
The
|
||
|
|
.I slay
|
||
|
|
command prints commands to do this.
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
.I Broke
|
||
|
|
prints commands that will cause all processes
|
||
|
|
in the
|
||
|
|
.I Broken
|
||
|
|
state
|
||
|
|
and owned by
|
||
|
|
.I user
|
||
|
|
(by default, the current user)
|
||
|
|
to go away.
|
||
|
|
When a process dies because of an error caught by
|
||
|
|
the system, it may linger in the
|
||
|
|
.I Broken
|
||
|
|
state to allow examination with a debugger.
|
||
|
|
Executing the commands printed by
|
||
|
|
.I broke
|
||
|
|
lets the system reclaim the resources used by
|
||
|
|
the broken processes.
