# pkill
|
||||
|
||||
> Signal process by name.
|
||||
> Mostly used for stopping processes.
|
||||
> More information: <https://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/pkill.1.html>.
|
||||
|
||||
- Kill all processes which match:
|
||||
|
||||
`pkill "{{process_name}}"`
|
||||
|
||||
- Kill all processes which match their full command instead of just the process name:
|
||||
|
||||
`pkill -f "{{command_name}}"`
|
||||
|
||||
- Force kill matching processes (can't be blocked):
|
||||
|
||||
`pkill -9 "{{process_name}}"`
|
||||
|
||||
- Send SIGUSR1 signal to processes which match:
|
||||
|
||||
`pkill -USR1 "{{process_name}}"`
|
||||
|
||||
- Kill the main `firefox` process to close the browser:
|
||||
|
||||
`pkill --oldest "{{firefox}}"`
