NAME
1.1 `_Exit'--end program execution with no cleanup processing
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdlib.h>
void _Exit(int CODE);
DESCRIPTION
Use `_Exit' to return control from a program to the host operating
environment. Use the argument CODE to pass an exit status to the
operating environment: two particular values, `EXIT_SUCCESS' and
`EXIT_FAILURE', are defined in ``stdlib.h'' to indicate success or
failure in a portable fashion.
`_Exit' differs from `exit' in that it does not run any
application-defined cleanup functions registered with `atexit' and it
does not clean up files and streams. It is identical to `_exit'.
RETURNS
`_Exit' does not return to its caller.
PORTABILITY
`_Exit' is defined by the C99 standard.
Supporting OS subroutines required: `_exit'.
