NAME
kuncd -- The Kernel User Notification Center daemon.
DESCRIPTION
The Kernel User Notification Center daemon handles requests by software
executing in the kernel to display notices and alerts to the user. The
daemon also handles kernel reqeusts to execute user-space helper tools.
The daemon is launched by launchd(8) when a request has been received
from the kernel and will exit 15 seconds after the last request has been
processed.
The daemon cannot be used directly by the user.
SIGNALS
SIGTERM This signal will result in the daemon unregistering itself from
launchd and exiting. Once it is unregistered, it will not run
again until it is reregistered.
