Description:
$ kill -9 -1
bash: kill: (1) - Not owner
"help kill" says:
...
be signal numbers for which names should be listed. Kill is a shell
builtin for two reasons: it allows job IDs to be used instead of
process IDs, and, if you have reached the limit on processes that
you can create, you don't have to start a process to kill another one.
But what do you do if you call a "fork bomb" (f.e.: perl -e
'while(1) {fork();}') and want to kill all your processes ?
You can't kill them process by process.
