mysql_kill

mysql_kill - Kills a connection

#include <mysql.h>
int mysql_kill(MYSQL * mysql,
               unsigned long);
    

This function is used to ask the server to kill a MariaDB thread specified by the processid parameter. This value must be retrieved by [show-processlist()](SHOW PROCESSLIST]]. If trying to kill the own connection mysql_thread_id(3) should be used.

• mysql - a connection identifier, which was previously allocated by mysql_init(3) and connected by mysql_real_connect(3). Returns 0 on success, otherwise nonzero.
• long - process id

• To stop a running command without killing the connection use KILL QUERY.
• The mysql_kill() function only kills a connection, it doesn’t free any memory - this must be done explicitly by calling mysql_close(3).

Returns zero on success, non zero on error.

• mysql_thread_id(3)
• mysql_close(3)
• mariadb_cancel(3)
