  2. wait (command) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wait_(command)

    wait normally returns the exit status of the last job which terminated. It may also return 127 in the event that n specifies a non-existent job or zero if there were no jobs to wait for. Because wait needs to be aware of the job table of the current shell execution environment, it is usually implemented as a shell builtin .

  3. Job control (Unix) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Job_control_(Unix)

    The jobs command will list the background jobs existing in the job table, along with their job number and job state (stopped or running). When a session ends when the user logs out (exits the shell, which terminates the session leader process), the shell process sends SIGHUP to all jobs, and waits for the process groups to end before ...

    The last string is the command that started the process. The state of a process can be changed using various commands. The fg command brings a process to the foreground, while bg sets a stopped process running in the background. bg and fg can take a job id as their first argument, to specify the process to act on.

  6. Infinite loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_loop

    As long as the system is responsive, infinite loops can often be interrupted by sending a signal to the process (such as SIGINT in Unix), or an interrupt to the processor, causing the current process to be aborted. This can be done in a task manager, in a terminal with the Control-C command, [9] or by using the kill command or system call.

    The tasks wait in the head of the queue on these processors while the current processor is being repaired. There are two scenarios which emerge from the above issue: [5] Blocking case: The processors assigned to the interrupted jobs are blocked and cannot execute other jobs in their queue until the jobs from the damaged processors are cleared. [5]

  8. nohup - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nohup

    Another relevant bash option is shopt huponexit, which automatically sends the HUP signal to jobs when the shell is exiting normally. [3] The AIX and Solaris versions of nohup have a -p option that modifies a running process to ignore future SIGHUP signals. Unlike the above-described disown builtin of bash, nohup -p accepts process IDs. [4]

    Shellshock, also known as Bashdoor, [1] is a family of security bugs [2] in the Unix Bash shell, the first of which was disclosed on 24 September 2014.Shellshock could enable an attacker to cause Bash to execute arbitrary commands and gain unauthorized access [3] to many Internet-facing services, such as web servers, that use Bash to process requests.
