FAQ

Kill -9 Meaning: The process will be killed by the kernel; this signal cannot be ignored. 9 means KILL signal that is not catchable or ignorable. Uses: SIGKILL singal. Kill Meaning: The kill command without any signal passes the signal 15, which terminates the process the normal way.

Some common synonyms of kill are assassinate, dispatch, execute, murder, and slay.

Basically, the kill -15 is a term signal, which the process could catch to trigger a graceful shutdown, closing pipes, sockets, & files, cleaning up temp space, etc, so to be useful it should give some time.

In Unix and Unix-like operating systems, kill is a command used to send a signal to a process. By default, the message sent is the termination signal, which requests that the process exit. But kill is something of a misnomer; the signal sent may have nothing to do with process killing.

Definition of kills sucks; is not good; hurt;.

Kill will generate a SIGTERM signal asking a process to kill itself gracefully i.e , free memory or take care of other child processes.Kill -9 generates a SIGKILL signal which won't check the state of the process and kills the process immediately.

The kill() function shall send a signal to a process or a group of processes specified by pid. The signal to be sent is specified by sig and is either one from the list given in <signal. h> or 0. If sig is 0 (the null signal), error checking is performed but no signal is actually sent.

When you run kill -9 , you're not telling the application to terminate itself, instead you're telling the OS to stop running the program, no matter what the program is doing. After SIGKILL is sent, the program will immediately be stopped.

Yes, "kill", not like in "I gonna kill your mother" but like in "stop trying to kill a Crusher with Fire Bolts"Or, the basic "uh, you could have killed me".
