僵尸进程概念

僵尸进程(Zombie process)通俗来说指那些虽然已经终止的进程，但仍然保留一些信息，等待其父进程为其收尸. 书面形式一点：一个进程结束了，但是他的父进程没有等待(调用wait / waitpid)他，那么他将变成一个僵尸进程。通过ps命令查看其带有defunct的标志。僵尸进程是一个早已死亡的进程，但在进程表(processs table)中仍占了一个位置(slot)。

但是如果该进程的父进程已经先结束了，那么该进程就不会变成僵尸进程。因为每个进程结束的时候，系统都会扫描当前系统中所运行的所有进程，看看有没有哪个进程是刚刚结束的这个进程的子进程，如果是的话，就由Init进程来接管他，成为他的父进程，从而保证每个进程都会有一个父进程。而Init进程会自动wait其子进程，因此被Init接管的所有进程都不会变成僵尸进程

与ZOMBIE对应的进程状态还有RUNNING(正在运行或等待运行状态)，UNINTERRUPTABLE(不可中断阻塞状态)，INTERRUPTABLE(可中断阻塞状态)，STOPPED(挂起状态)等。

关于僵尸进程的维基百科介绍：

On Unix and Unix-like computer operating systems, a zombie process or defunct process is a process that has completed execution (via the exit system call) but still has an entry in the process table: it is a process in the "Terminated state". This occurs for child processes, where the entry is still needed to allow the parent process to read its child's exit status: once the exit status is read via the wait system call, the zombie's entry is removed from the process table and it is said to be "reaped". A child process always first becomes a zombie before being removed from the resource table. In most cases, under normal system operation zombies are immediately waited on by their parent and then reaped by the system – processes that stay zombies for a long time are generally an error and cause a resource leak.

The term zombie process derives from the common definition of zombie — an undead person. In the term's metaphor, the child process has "died" but has not yet been "reaped". Also, unlike
