ftio(1)

ftio operates using System V shared memory and semaphores. The resources committed to these functions are not freed automatically by the system when the process terminates. ftio does this only when it terminates normally, or when it terminates after receiving one the following signals: SIGHUP, SIGINT, SIGTERM. Any other signal is handled in the default manner described by signal(2). Note that the behavior for SIGKILL is to terminate the process without delay. Thus, if ftio receives a SIGKILL signal (as might be produced by the indiscriminate use of kill -9(see kill(1)), system resources used for shared memory and semaphores are not returned to the system. If it becomes necessary to terminate an invocation of ftio, use kill -15instead. Current system usage of shared memory and semaphores can be checked using the ipcs command (see ipcs(1)). Committed resources can be removed using ipcrm (see ipcrm(1)).
