By using ".all" you can refer to a task object via a pointer.
So you want to specify

    abort POOL_1.all;
    
If, however, this task does have an infinite loop, your abort
may not help you, since an "aborted" task may not become
completed until it hits a syncronization point, e.g. an accept
statement. Better to remove the loop and using a less severe
method to stop the task.
