[linux-audio-dev] How to kill a rogue (p)thread

[Arve Knudsen]

Hi

Could anyone explain how I should go about killing a potensially 
unresponsive thread? Of course there's pthread_cancel, but I don't wish to 
wait for the other thread to reach a cancel point. Basically I'm trying to 
implement a watchdog for a realtime audio thread. Any suggestions are 
welcome, thanks.
