/*
* \brief Support for blocking operations
* \author Norman Feske
* \date 2007-09-06
*
* In Genode, two operations may block a thread,
* waiting at a lock or performing an IPC call.
* Both operations may be canceled when killing
* the thread. In this case, the thread unblocks
* and throws an exception, and therefore, is able
* to clean up the thread state before exiting.
