In fact, classical deadlock on mutexes is not covered by cancel at all. Think of cancel as just another event that unblocks a thread blocked "indefinitely". IOW read it as just blocked for unspecified period of time (timeouts/wakeup events aside for a moment) but not really infinite/hanging. :) Issue History Date Modified Username Field Change ====================================================================== 2017-06-14 13:59 dstaesse New Issue 2017-06-14 13:59 dstaesse Name => Dimitri Staessens 2017-06-14 13:59 dstaesse Section => 2.9.5 2017-06-14 13:59 dstaesse Page Number => 520 2017-06-14 13:59 dstaesse Line Number => 18219-18223 2017-06-14 14:25 terekhov Note Added: 0003760 2017-06-15 18:49 dstaesse Note Added: 0003765 2017-06-17 12:17 dstaesse Note Added: 0003783 2017-06-19 09:04 terekhov Note Added: 0003784 2017-06-20 03:50 dstaesse Note Added: 0003790 2017-06-20 09:59 terekhov Note Added: 0003792 2017-06-20 10:31 dstaesse Note Added: 0003793 2017-06-20 12:44 terekhov Note Added: 0003794 ======================================================================
