SYS_TGKILL(9)			 Driver Basics			 SYS_TGKILL(9)

NAME
       sys_tgkill - send signal to one specific thread

SYNOPSIS
       long sys_tgkill(pid_t tgid, pid_t pid, int sig);

ARGUMENTS
       tgid
	   the thread group ID of the thread

       pid
	   the PID of the thread

       sig
	   signal to be sent

DESCRIPTION
       This syscall also checks the tgid and returns -ESRCH even if the PID
       exists but it´s not belonging to the target process anymore. This
       method solves the problem of threads exiting and PIDs getting reused.
