-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 an extended regular expression.
|
-s, --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.
