3 Processes Course objectives By completing this course, you will: n Explain the process concept. And different types. n List and sort running processes. Using several tools. n Spot CPU hogs. Who s eating all the system power? n Use signals. To terminate and communicate with processes.

4 Processes Course topics Course s plan: n Processes on Unices. What s a process? n Running processes. Background, foreground and priority. n Listing processes. Unix tasks managers. n Signals. Primitive IPC.

5 Processes Processes on Unices What s a process?

6 Processes on Unices Processes Everything is a file, if not, then, it s a process. Unknown source

7 Processes on Unices Processes What s a process? n System task management abstraction n In-memory executable code n Many properties n Runs as a (uig,gid) couple n Attached to a tty n daemons n Identified by a PID

8 Processes on Unices Process Hierarchy A process can spawn other processes: init ftpd login init is the first userland process (PID 1) started off by the kernel. It s the ancestor of every processes. ls bash cp

9 Processes on Unices Process Hierarchy Processes on Unix: fork(). n Process can spawn children n Child process n Inherit environment n Die if parent die n Can be detached n Parent process n Must wait for children n Zombies

10 Processes on Unices Daemons Processes gone rogue. n Special state n Detached from original parent n PPID = 1 n No control TTY n STDIN n STDOUT n STDERR n Used for services

11 Processes on Unices Process State A process can be: Name Description Running Has CPU time Runnable Sleeping Zombie/ Defunct Waits for CPU time Does nothing / Waits for something (I/O, ) Process ended. Parent didn t wait() (yet)

12 Processes on Unices Zombies / Defunct processes Can t kill what s already dead. n Ended process n No CPU cycles n No resources n Only id block and process table entry n Needs to be wait() ed n Stalled parent n Bugged parent n Kill the parent

13 Processes on Unices Stop-and-think Do you have any questions?

14 Processes on Unices Stop-and-think The only way to get rid of zombies/defunct processes is to reboot the system. True False

15 Processes on Unices Stop-and-think The only way to get rid of zombies/defunct processes is to reboot the system. True False

16 Processes Running processes Background, foreground and priorities

17 Running processes Processes in the shell I want my prompt back! n Background processes n Start with & n Ctrl-Z + bg n Move to foreground n fg n Ctrl-C kill the process n List running tasks n jobs n Detach from the shell n disown

18 Running processes Processes in the shell yes > /dev/null ^Z [1]+ Stopped yes > /dev/null bg [1]+ yes > /dev/null & cat /dev/zero > /dev/null & [2] 1861 jobs [1]- Running yes > /dev/null & [2]+ Running cat /dev/zero > /dev/null & fg cat /dev/zero > /dev/null ^Z [2]+ Stopped cat /dev/zero > /dev/null bg [2]+ cat /dev/zero > /dev/null & fg %1 yes > /dev/null

19 Running processes Priority So the last will be first, and the first last n Priority (PR) n Kernel-computed n Niceness n Many elements n -20 > 19 n Default 0 n Niceness n Only root can go negative

20 Running processes Niceness Starting a niced process n nice command n Defaults to 10 n Can be set [user@linux ~]$ nice [option] cmdline -n value: Run the process with the specified nice value

21 Running processes Niceness Modifying the nice value of a running process n renice command n PID s n Users n Only root can renice other s processes [user@linux ~]$ renice [ n] priority options -p pid: Renice the PID process -u user: Renice processes owned by user

22 Running processes Stop-and-think Do you have any questions?

23 Running processes Stop-and-think Only root can run processes with a negative nice value. True False

24 Running processes Stop-and-think Only root can run processes with a negative nice value. True False

25 Running processes Stop-and-think Users can always renice their own processes. True False

26 Running processes Stop-and-think Users can always renice their own processes. True False

27 Processes Listing processes Unix task managers

28 Listing processes Show processes List running processes ~]# ps [options] Options none -u user -e -ef aux Definitions Processes running in the current user/shell Processes owned by user All processes (System V syntax) All processes, long form All processes (BSD Syntax)

29 Listing processes Show processes Filter processes ~]# pgrep [options] pattern Options Definitions -l -U user, -G group, î -v Show process name Processes owned by user (list is or ed) Processes owned by group (list is or ed) Inverted match: Show process that do not match

30 Listing processes Interactive tools TUI-based process management. n Interactive tools n Keyboard controlled n Monitor system activity n top n Well-known n De facto standard n Old n Limited (list size, ) n htop n Fixes top limitations

31 Listing processes Stop-and-think Do you have any questions?

32 Listing processes Stop-and-think The ps aux and ps aux commands are both valid and have the same meaning. True False

33 Listing processes Stop-and-think The ps aux and ps aux commands are both valid and have the same meaning. True False

34 Processes Signals Primitive IPC

35 Signals Signal definition What s a signal? n Primitive IPC/Soft IRQ n Signal other process n Signal self n Events n Modem Hang up n Timer elapsed n Errors n Broken Pipe n Segmentation Fault n Custom meanining

36 Signals Common Signals Complete list with kill -l number Description 15 SIGTERM 9 SIGKILL 11 SIGSEGV 1 SIGHUP

37 Signals Sending signals From command line ~]$ kill [options] [pid %job_id] Options Definitions -l -num -signal List signals Send signal n num. Defaults to SIGTERM(15) Send signal named signal. (SIGKILL or KILL)

38 Signals Sending signals From command line ~]$ killall [options] [name] Options Definitions -l -s signal -u user List signals Send signal (name or n ). Defaults to SIGTERM(15) Select only processes owned by user

39 Signals Sending signals From command line ~]$ pkill [options] pattern options: Same as pgrep -signal: Send signal (name or n ). Defaults to SIGTERM

40 Signals Part 4 Stop-and-think Do you have any questions?

41 Signals Stop-and-think To kill a job with the kill command, you must get its PID before. True False

42 Signals Stop-and-think To kill a job with the kill command, you must get its PID before. True False

43 Processes Course summary Priority/ niceness What s a process Signals Zombies Jobs
