Overview

The mariadb-waitpid utility signals a process to terminate and waits for the process to exit. It is only usable on Unix and Unix-like systems, as it uses the kill() system call and Unix signals.

In 10.4 and later, the mariadb-waitpid utility can be executed as either mariadb-waitpid or mysql_waitpid.

In 10.3 and before, only the mysql_waitpid name is supported.
