The shell itself executes wait, without creating a new process. If you get the error message cannot fork,too many processes, try using the wait command to clean up your background processes. If this doesn't help, the system process table is probably full or you have too many active foreground processes. There is a limit to the number of process IDs associated with your login, and to the number the system can keep track of.
Not all the processes of a pipeline with three or more stages are children of the shell, and thus cannot be waited for.
Wait for your background process whose process ID is pid and report its termination status. If pid is omitted, all your shell's currently active background processes are waited for and the return code is 0. The wait utility accepts a job identifier, when Job Control is enabled (jsh), and the argument, jobid, is preceded by a percent sign (%).
If pid is not an active process ID, the wait utility returns immediately and the return code is 0.
Wait for your background processes.
When an asynchronous list is started by the shell, the process ID of the last command in each element of the asynchronous list becomes known in the current shell execution environment.
If the wait utility is invoked with no operands, it waits until all process IDs known to the invoking shell have terminated and exit with an exit status of 0.
If one or more pid or jobid operands are specified that represent known process IDs (or jobids), the wait utility waits until all of them have terminated. If one or more pid or jobid operands are specified that represent unknown process IDs (or jobids), wait treats them as if they were known process IDs (or jobids) that exited with exit status 127. The exit status returned by the wait utility is the exit status of the process requested by the last pid or jobid operand.
The known process IDs are applicable only for invocations of wait in the current shell execution environment.
wait with no operands, waits until all jobs known to the invoking shell have terminated. If one or more job operands are specified, wait waits until all of them have completed. Each job can be specified as one of the following:
number
-number
%number
%string
%?string
%+
%%
%-
If one ore more job operands is a process id or process group id not known by the current shell environment, wait treats each of them as if it were a process that exited with status 127.
The following operands are supported:
pid
jobid
On most implementations, wait is a shell built-in. If it is called in a subshell or separate utility execution environment, such as one of the following,
(wait) nohup wait ... find . -exec wait ... \;
it returns immediately because there is no known process IDs to wait for in those environments.
Example 1 Using A Script To Identify The Termination Signal
Although the exact value used when a process is terminated by a signal is unspecified, if it is known that a signal terminated a process, a script can still reliably figure out which signal is using kill, as shown by the following (/bin/ksh and /usr/xpg4/bin/sh):
sleep 1000& pid=$! kill -kill $pid wait $pid echo $pid was terminated by a SIG$(kill -l $(($?-128))) signal.
Example 2 Returning The Exit Status Of A Process
If the following sequence of commands is run in less than 31 seconds (/bin/ksh and /usr/xpg4/bin/sh):
sleep 257 | sleep 31 & jobs -l %%
then either of the following commands returns the exit status of the second sleep in the pipeline:
wait <pid of sleep 31> wait %%
See environ(5) for descriptions of the following environment variables that affect the execution of wait: LANG, LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE, LC_MESSAGES, and NLSPATH.
The following exit values are returned by the wait built-in in ksh93:
0
127
