NAME
       killall - kill all active processes

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/sbin/killall [signal]

DESCRIPTION
       killall	is  used  by  shutdown(1M)  to	kill  all active processes not
       directly related to the shutdown procedure.

       killall terminates all processes with open files so  that  the  mounted
       file systems will be unbusied and can be unmounted.

       killall	sends signal (see kill(1)) to the active processes. If no sig‐
       nal is specified, a default of 15 is used.

       The killall command can be run only by the super-user.
