[vlc-devel] [PATCH 4/4] os2: thread: determine cancelable state with killable variable

[KO Myung-Hun]

From: KO Myung-Hun <komh78 at gmail.com>

If thread cancel is disabled and cancel is requested, it causes a tight
infinite loop eating up CPU in cancellation points such as vlc_join(),
vlc_cond_wait() and vlc_cond_timedwait().
