  2. Exit status - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exit_status

    In Unix and other POSIX-compatible systems, the parent process can retrieve the exit status of a child process using the wait() family of system calls defined in wait.h. [10] Of these, the waitid() [11] call retrieves the full exit status, but the older wait() and waitpid() [12] calls retrieve only the least significant 8 bits of the exit status.

  3. Command-line completion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command-line_completion

    Command-line completion generally only works in interactive mode. That is, it cannot be invoked to complete partially typed commands in scripts or batch files, even if the completion is unambiguous. The name tab completion comes from the fact that command-line completion is often invoked by pressing the tab key.

  6. Process (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_(computing)

    If a process in the "running" state needs to wait for a resource (wait for user input or file to open, for example), it is assigned the "blocked" state. The process state is changed back to "waiting" when the process no longer needs to wait (in a blocked state). Once the process finishes execution, or is terminated by the operating system, it ...

  7. wait (system call) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wait_(system_call)

    In computer operating systems, a process (or task) may wait for another process to complete its execution. In most systems, a parent process can create an independently executing child process . The parent process may then issue a wait system call , which suspends the execution of the parent process while the child executes.

  8. Spawn (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spawn_(computing)

    Suspends parent process until the child process has finished executing (synchronous spawn). P_NOWAIT, P_NOWAITO: Continues to execute calling process concurrently with new process (asynchronous spawn). P_DETACH: the child is run in background without access to the console or keyboard. Calls to _cwait upon the new process will fail (asynchronous ...

  9. Shortest job next - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortest_job_next

    Shortest job next can be effectively used with interactive processes which generally follow a pattern of alternating between waiting for a command and executing it. If the execution burst of a process is regarded as a separate "job", the past behaviour can indicate which process to run next, based on an estimate of its running time.
