+.TH kill 2 2023-03-30 "Linux man-pages 6.05.01"
+.SH NAME
+kill \- send signal to a process
+.SH LIBRARY
+Standard C library
+.RI ( libc ", " \-lc )
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+.B #include <signal.h>
+.PP
+.BI "int kill(pid_t " pid ", int " sig );
+.fi
+.PP
+.RS -4
+Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see
+.BR feature_test_macros (7)):
+.RE
+.PP
+.BR kill ():
+.nf
+    _POSIX_C_SOURCE
+.fi
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.BR kill ()
+system call
+can be used to send any signal to any process group or process.
+.PP
+If \fIpid\fP is positive, then signal \fIsig\fP is sent to the
+process with the ID specified by \fIpid\fP.
+.PP
+If \fIpid\fP equals 0, then \fIsig\fP is sent to every process in the
+process group of the calling process.
+.PP
+If \fIpid\fP equals \-1, then \fIsig\fP is sent to every process
+for which the calling process has permission to send signals,
+except for process 1 (\fIinit\fP), but see below.
+.PP
+If \fIpid\fP is less than \-1, then \fIsig\fP is sent to every process
+in the process group whose ID is \fI\-pid\fP.
+.PP
+If \fIsig\fP is 0, then no signal is sent,
+but existence and permission checks are still performed;
+this can be used to check for the existence of a process ID or
+process group ID that the caller is permitted to signal.
+.PP
+For a process to have permission to send a signal,
+it must either be privileged (under Linux: have the
+.B CAP_KILL
+capability in the user namespace of the target process),
+or the real or effective user ID of the sending process must equal
+the real or saved set-user-ID of the target process.
+In the case of
+.BR SIGCONT ,
+it suffices when the sending and receiving
+processes belong to the same session.
+(Historically, the rules were different; see NOTES.)
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+On success (at least one signal was sent), zero is returned.
+On error, \-1 is returned, and
+.I errno
+is set to indicate the error.
+.SH ERRORS
+.TP
+.B EINVAL
+An invalid signal was specified.
+.TP
+.B EPERM
+The calling process does not have permission to send the signal
+to any of the target processes.
+.TP
+.B ESRCH
+The target process or process group does not exist.
+Note that an existing process might be a zombie,
+a process that has terminated execution, but
+has not yet been
+.BR wait (2)ed
+for.
+.SH STANDARDS
+POSIX.1-2008.
+.SH HISTORY
+POSIX.1-2001, SVr4, 4.3BSD.
+.SS Linux notes
+Across different kernel versions, Linux has enforced different rules
+for the permissions required for an unprivileged process
+to send a signal to another process.
+.\" In the 0.* kernels things chopped and changed quite
+.\" a bit - MTK, 24 Jul 02
+In Linux 1.0 to 1.2.2, a signal could be sent if the
+effective user ID of the sender matched effective user ID of the target,
+or the real user ID of the sender matched the real user ID of the target.
+From Linux 1.2.3 until 1.3.77, a signal could be sent if the
+effective user ID of the sender matched either the real or effective
+user ID of the target.
+The current rules, which conform to POSIX.1, were adopted
+in Linux 1.3.78.
+.SH NOTES
+The only signals that can be sent to process ID 1, the
+.I init
+process, are those for which
+.I init
+has explicitly installed signal handlers.
+This is done to assure the
+system is not brought down accidentally.
+.PP
+POSIX.1 requires that \fIkill(\-1,sig)\fP send \fIsig\fP
+to all processes that the calling process may send signals to,
+except possibly for some implementation-defined system processes.
+Linux allows a process to signal itself, but on Linux the call
+\fIkill(\-1,sig)\fP does not signal the calling process.
+.PP
+POSIX.1 requires that if a process sends a signal to itself,
+and the sending thread does not have the signal blocked,
+and no other thread
+has it unblocked or is waiting for it in
+.BR sigwait (3),
+at least one
+unblocked signal must be delivered to the sending thread before the
+.BR kill ()
+returns.
+.SH BUGS
+In Linux 2.6 up to and including Linux 2.6.7,
+there was a bug that meant that when sending signals to a process group,
+.BR kill ()
+failed with the error
+.B EPERM
+if the caller did not have permission to send the signal to \fIany\fP (rather
+than \fIall\fP) of the members of the process group.
+Notwithstanding this error return, the signal was still delivered
+to all of the processes for which the caller had permission to signal.
