.SH PROLOG
This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.
The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult
the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior),
or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.

.SH NAME
killpg
\(em send a signal to a process group
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
.nf
#include <signal.h>
.P
int killpg(pid_t \fIpgrp\fP, int \fIsig\fP);
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
The
\fIkillpg\fR()
function shall send the signal specified by
.IR sig
to the process group specified by
.IR pgrp .
.P
If
.IR pgrp
is greater than 1, \fIkillpg\fP(\fIpgrp\fP,\ \fIsig\fR) shall be
equivalent to \fIkill\fP(\-\fIpgrp\fP,\ \fIsig\fR). If
.IR pgrp
is less than or equal to 1, the behavior of
\fIkillpg\fR()
is undefined.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
Refer to
.IR "\fIkill\fR\^(\|)".
.SH ERRORS
Refer to
.IR "\fIkill\fR\^(\|)".
.LP
.IR "The following sections are informative."
.SH EXAMPLES
.SS "Sending a Signal to All Other Members of a Process Group"
.P
The following example shows how the calling process could send a signal
to all other members of its process group. To prevent itself from
receiving the signal it first makes itself immune to the signal by
ignoring it.

if (signal(SIGUSR1, SIG_IGN) == SIG_ERR)
/* Handle error */;

if (killpg(getpgrp(), SIGUSR1) == -1)
/* Handle error */;"
