S6-LINUX-INIT-NUKE(8)

NAME
s6-linux-init-nuke - kill all processes immediately

SYNOPSIS
s6-linux-init-nuke

DESCRIPTION
s6-linux-init-nuke kills all processes immediately.

s6-linux-init-nuke sends a SIGKILL to every process on the system. ( Process 1 will be unaffected.)

Do not try this at home.

This program only exists so the s6-linux-init package can be self-contained and avoid relying on the existence of an external kill program. It is only run in the very improbable case that s6-svscan(8) crashes, in a container situation.

EXIT STATUS

0   Success.

100 Permanent error ( such as a misuse).

111 Temporary error ( such as a system call failure).
