Like START SLAVE, this statement may be used with the IO_THREAD and SQL_THREAD options to name the thread or threads to be stopped.
*Note*: In MySQL 5.5, STOP SLAVE waits until the current replication event group affecting one or more non-transactional tables has finished executing (if there is any such replication group), or until the user issues a KILL QUERY or KILL CONNECTION statement. (Bug #319, Bug #38205)
