5 bells on this page
- SIG-001 SIGHUP The phone went dead — and daemons took it to mean “reread your configuration”. Termination common
- SIG-002 SIGINT Ctrl+C: the interruption that leaves the keyboard and arrives as a signal. Termination common
- SIG-003 SIGQUIT Ctrl+\ — ends things like its sibling, but leaves a core dump as a keepsake. Termination uncommon
- SIG-004 SIGTERM The polite request: tidy up, close the doors, turn off the lights. Termination common
- SIG-005 SIGKILL The bullet: the process never hears this ring — the kernel acts alone. Termination common
