it didn't crash the kernel, it just killed every process that isn't run by the root user, which kind of feels like a crash
Ah, that definitely would feel like a crash. Sent kill signal to cgroup accidentally? Or just iterate over all processes and signal them all?
probably the later, but idk how, all I did was insert a string in the following command like this:
`Command::new("bash")
.arg("-c") .arg(format!("ps -aux | grep -i "{}" | awk '{{print $2}}' | xagrs kill -9", input)
.output()
.expect("error");`
I've tested the command and it worked flawlessly in the terminal, but I have no idea what I'm doing, since I'm new to rust and never worked with this library
