I tried to control the timing task by returning the flag bit, but I didn't find it. Perhaps every timing task starts as a thread, but the problem is how to find the thread and kill it.

Research direction

The report names nginx timer tasks but no source file, entry point, or test. Start by tracing the timer-task lifecycle and checking existing shutdown controls; done would require a clearly specified way to close one task or all tasks, with corresponding coverage or documentation.
