# NOTE: The pidofproc () doesn't support the process which is a script unless
#       the pidof supports "-x" option. If you want to use it for such a
#       process:
#       1) If there is no "pidof -x", replace the "pidof $1" with another
#          command like(for core-image-minimal):
#            ps | awk '/'"$1"'/ {print $1}'
#       Or
#       2) If there is "pidof -x", replace "pidof" with "pidof -x".
#
# pidofproc - print the pid of a process
# $1: the name of the process

	# pidof output null when no program is running, so no "2>/dev/null".
