php-pcntlHow to kill a process with PHP PCNTL?


Using the PHP PCNTL extension, you can kill a process with the pcntl_kill() function.

<?php
$pid = 1234;
pcntl_kill($pid, SIGKILL);

The pcntl_kill() function takes two parameters:

  1. $pid - The process ID of the process to be killed.
  2. SIGKILL - The signal to be sent to the process. In this case, SIGKILL is used to force the process to terminate.

For more information, see the PHP PCNTL documentation.
