NAME


killall - kill processes by name

SYNOPSIS


killall [-Z, --context pattern] [-e, --exact] [-g, --process-group] [-i, --interactive]
[-o, --older-than TIME] [-q, --quiet] [-r, --regexp] [-s, --signal SIGNAL, -SIGNAL]
[-u, --user user] [-v, --verbose] [-w, --wait] [-y, --younger-than TIME] [-I, --ignore-
case] [-V, --version] [--] name ...
killall -l
killall -V, --version

DESCRIPTION


killall sends a signal to all processes running any of the specified commands. If no
signal name is specified, SIGTERM is sent.

Signals can be specified either by name (e.g. -HUP or -SIGHUP) or by number (e.g. -1) or
by option -s.

If the command name is not regular expression (option -r) and contains a slash (/),
processes executing that particular file will be selected for killing, independent of
their name.

killall returns a zero return code if at least one process has been killed for each listed
command, or no commands were listed and at least one process matched the -u and -Z search
criteria. killall returns non-zero otherwise.

A killall process never kills itself (but may kill other killall processes).

OPTIONS


-e, --exact
Require an exact match for very long names. If a command name is longer than 15
characters, the full name may be unavailable (i.e. it is swapped out). In this
case, killall will kill everything that matches within the first 15 characters.
With -e, such entries are skipped. killall prints a message for each skipped entry
if -v is specified in addition to -e,

-I, --ignore-case
Do case insensitive process name match.

-g, --process-group
Kill the process group to which the process belongs. The kill signal is only sent
once per group, even if multiple processes belonging to the same process group were
found.

-i, --interactive
Interactively ask for confirmation before killing.

-l, --list
List all known signal names.

-o, --older-than
Match only processes that are older (started before) the time specified. The time
is specified as a float then a unit. The units are s,m,h,d,w,M,y for seconds,
minutes, hours, days, weeks, Months and years respectively.

-q, --quiet
Do not complain if no processes were killed.

-r, --regexp
Interpret process name pattern as a POSIX extended regular expression, per
regex(3).

-s, --signal, -SIGNAL
Send this signal instead of SIGTERM.

-u, --user
Kill only processes the specified user owns. Command names are optional.

-v, --verbose
Report if the signal was successfully sent.

-V, --version
Display version information.

-w, --wait
Wait for all killed processes to die. killall checks once per second if any of the
killed processes still exist and only returns if none are left. Note that killall
may wait forever if the signal was ignored, had no effect, or if the process stays
in zombie state.

-y, --younger-than
Match only processes that are younger (started after) the time specified. The time
is specified as a float then a unit. The units are s,m,h,d,w,M,y for seconds,
minutes, hours, days, weeks, Months and years respectively.

-Z, --context
(SELinux Only) Specify security context: kill only processes having security
context that match with given expended regular expression pattern. Must precede
other arguments on the command line. Command names are optional.
