Hi all..

As the subject says, I was thinking about that issue.

I know that rm-ing a file doesn't delete the data block from the
backing device, thus the executable could still survive and running.

But logically, we usually expect that once a file is rm-ed, it should
also "stop", right? What does POSIX say about this case anyway? Anyone
could kindly give his/her opinion?
