resumefromsuspend

resumefromsuspend is a command-line utility that enables users to resume processes that have been put into a suspended state. This utility is part of the GNU Core Utilities package, commonly found on Linux and other Unix-like operating systems. Suspended processes are those that have been paused and are not currently executing, but are not terminated. Resuming them allows them to continue their execution from the point where they were halted.

The primary function of resumefromsuspend is to interact with the operating system's process management capabilities. When a process is suspended, its state is saved, and it is removed from the scheduler's active queue. resumefromsuspend then signals the operating system to reintroduce the process to the scheduler, allowing it to resume its operations. This can be useful for managing resources or for debugging purposes, as it provides a way to temporarily halt and then restart tasks without fully interrupting them. The command typically requires appropriate permissions to manage processes owned by other users.
