How could I stop all the functions in the background.html?

Hey everyone! I am new in chrome extension developing, and in my extension, I have a pop up window to show something when it's running, and if the window is closed, I want the whole extension to stop running, but some functions in the background.html are still running, so how could I stop all the functions? Thanks!

In your popup,

var bkg = chrome.extension.getBackgroundPage();
bkg.location.reload()

That will stop everything and reload the background page. If you want to control the reloading state, you can have a function in the background page that you call bkg.callSomeFunction()
