Hi Florin,
This issue is resolved now.  In my application, on receiving the kill
signal main thread was sending phread_cancel() to the child thread
because of that child thread was not exiting gracefully.
I have one question; it seems that vppcom_epoll_wait(epfd, rcvEvents,
MAX_RETURN_EVENTS, 60000.0) is not returning after timed out if the timeout
value is a non zero value. It timed out only if the timeout value is 0.
The issue that I am facing is that if there is no traffic at all ( receiver
is just listening on the connections ) then the worker thread is not
exiting as it is blocked by vppcom_epoll_wait().

Thanks,
-Raj
