Without changing existing workqueue function, is there anyway to kill the running workqueue immediately from the code(not cancel_work_sync() but more like kill -9)?

Yes I have but it's not quite what I am looking for. My work function calls another library function which I don't have source access, somehow it got stuck inside the library function. So I am wondering if there is a way to kill the workqueue like 'ps -9' – luke Oct 23 '18 at 04:32
