`kill -9` 和 `pkill`

kill -9 和 pkill 是在类 Unix 系统中用来终止进程的两个不同命令，它们之间有以下主要区别：

1. 信号不同：

   • kill -9：发送 SIGKILL 信号给指定的进程。SIGKILL（信号值为 9）是一个强制杀死进程的信号，不能被进程捕获或忽略，进程将立即终止。
   • pkill：可以发送多种信号给进程，SIGKILL 只是其中之一。使用 pkill 时，可以通过 -s 或 --signal 选项指定要发送的信号。

2. 目标选择方式不同：

   • kill -9：通常需要指定要杀死的进程的 PID（进程 ID），例如 kill -9 1234。
   • pkill：通过进程名或其他属性来选择要杀死的进程，例如 pkill -9 nginx 会向所有名为 nginx 的进程发送 SIGKILL 信号。

3. 使用范围：

   • kill -9：只能杀死单个指定的进程。
   • pkill：可以杀死所有匹配特定条件的进程，这使得 pkill 更适合批量操作。

4. 适用场景：

   • kill -9：由于其强制杀死进程的特性，通常作为最后的手段使用，当其他信号（如 SIGTERM）无法终止进程时。
   • pkill：更适合需要同时终止多个相同名称或属性的进程的场景。

5. 命令选项：

   • kill -9：选项较少，主要用来发送 SIGKILL 信号。
   • pkill：有更多的选项，可以指定信号、匹配条件等。

6. 安全性：

   • kill -9：由于不能被进程捕获或忽略，使用时需要谨慎，以避免可能的数据丢失或不一致。
   • pkill：虽然也可以发送 SIGKILL，但由于其选择性更强，可以更精确地控制要杀死的进程集合。

总结来说，kill -9 是一个简单直接的命令，用于强制杀死指定的单个进程，而 pkill 提供了更多的灵活性和选择性，可以发送不同的信号并针对一组进程执行操作。在实际使用中，应根据具体需求和场景选择合适的命令。

KILL(1)                                                                             User Commands                                                                            KILL(1)NAMEkill - terminate a processSYNOPSISkill [-s signal|-p] [-q sigval] [-a] [--] pid...kill -l [signal]DESCRIPTIONThe  command  kill sends the specified signal to the specified process or process group.  If no signal is specified, the TERM signal is sent.  The TERM signal will kill pro‐cesses which do not catch this signal.  For other processes, it may be necessary to use the KILL (9) signal, since this signal cannot be caught.Most modern shells have a builtin kill function, with a usage rather similar to that of the command described here.  The '-a' and '-p' options, and the possibility to  spec‐ify processes by command name are a local extension.If sig is 0, then no signal is sent, but error checking is still performed.OPTIONSpid... Specify the list of processes that kill should signal.  Each pid can be one of five things:n      where n is larger than 0.  The process with pid n will be signaled.0      All processes in the current process group are signaled.-1     All processes with pid larger than 1 will be signaled.-n     where  n  is  larger  than  1.  All processes in process group n are signaled.  When an argument of the form '-n' is given, and it is meant to denote a processgroup, either the signal must be specified first, or the argument must be preceded by a '--' option, otherwise it will be taken as the signal to send.commandnameAll processes invoked using that name will be signaled.-s, --signal signalSpecify the signal to send.  The signal may be given as a signal name or number.-l, --list [signal]Print a list of signal names, or convert signal given as argument to a name.  The signals are found in /usr/include/linux/signal.h-L, --tableSimilar to -l, but will print signal names and their corresponding numbers.-a, --allDo not restrict the commandname-to-pid conversion to processes with the same uid as the present process.-p, --pidSpecify that kill should only print the process id (pid) of the named processes, and not send any signals.-q, --queue sigvalUse sigqueue(2) rather than kill(2) and the sigval argument is used to specify an integer to be sent with the signal.  If the receiving process has installed  a  han‐dler for this signal using the SA_SIGINFO flag to sigaction(2), then it can obtain this data via the si_value field of the siginfo_t structure.
