In case the process is absent `Errno::ESRCH` is + * raised. + * + * - Case #6: When signo and PID are both zero, this function checks for the + * existence of the current process group. And it must do. This function + * is effectively a no-op then. + * + * - Case #7: When signo is zero and PID is -1, this function checks if there + * is any other process that the current process can kill.
