man samba(8) contains sentences:
To shut down a user's smbd process it is recommended that SIGKILL (-9)
NOT be used, except as a last resort, as this may leave the shared
memory area in an inconsistent state. The safe way to terminate an smbd
is to send it a SIGTERM (-15) signal and wait for it to die on its own.
