I'm using Linux Ubuntu 20.04.
I have a process with PID 21:
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
21 root 20 0 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.01 kdevtmpfs
After running either of
sudo pkill -9 21
sudo kill 21
the process is still visible in the outputs of top
or ps aux
.
How can I kill it?
top
orps aux
showing the command. Also, when you say "Linux 20.04", I suppose you mean you are running Ubuntu 20.04, right?21
as part of their name.
