grep the process id and kill all the filtered process
Hi
I want to write a shell script which can find the process id's of all the process and kill them eg:
now kill all process searched(find the child process and kill it first and rest).
How do I write the shell script for the above?

kill
KILL(1) General Commands Manual KILL(1)NAME
kill, broke - print commands to kill processes
SYNOPSIS
kill name
broke
DESCRIPTION
Kill prints commands that will cause all processes called name and owned by the current user to be terminated. Use the send command of
81/2(1), or pipe the output of kill into rc(1) to execute the commands.
Kill suggests sending a kill note to the process; the same message delivered to the process's ctl file (see proc(3)) is a surer, if heavy
handed, kill, but is necessary if the offending process is ignoring notes.
Broke prints commands that will cause all processes in the Broken state and owned by the current user to go away. When a process dies
because of an error caught by the system, it may linger in the Broken state to allow examination with a debugger. Executing the commands
printed by broke lets the system reclaim the resources used by the broken processes.
