💖 VHANGUP(8) — The SuSE boot concept 💖

okay so bestie, this is VHANGUP(8) from The SuSE boot concept, and it's all about making terminals act like they just got hung up on. iconic behavior, honestly. 💅✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

Vhang — cause a virtually hangup on the specified terminals. yes, the NAME section spells it Vhang, and we respect the lore. 🫶

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

vhangup [/dev/<terminal> [/dev/<terminal>]]

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

vhangup simulates a hangup on the terminals you specify. If a device file or a device doesn't exist, it just gets ignored — no cap, no drama. 🙈✨

🔥 EXAMPLES 🔥

vhangup /dev/tty1 /dev/tty2 /dev/tty3 /dev/tty4 /dev/tty5 /dev/tty6 /dev/ttyS1

okay so what this does: it will replace all open file descriptors in the kernel that points to the listed ttys by a dummy that will deny further reading/writing to the device. It also sends the signals SIGHUP/SIGCONT to the processes which have file descriptors open on the listed ttys. periodt. 💀🔥

🌈 RETURN VALUE 🌈

On success, zero is returned. On error, 1 is returned. that's the whole vibe check. 🎀
