Use adctrl utility to tell workers t quit from patching and after pre-requisite you can re-apply the same patch

If you have wasted your time  in main patch near about 8 to 10hrs.,then you should take backup of FND_INSTALL_PROCESSES,AD_DEFFERED_JOBS and baclup of restart files which extension is .bk9,rf9 nd these files located in $APPL_TOP/admin/sid/restart before quit the workers and then apply the pre-req. of patch and when you will go for main patch then before start the main patch restore the tables and backup files.

Oracle Support should provide you a complete plan of action in case of a patch failure. If they do not provide you complete plan of action ask for it.

In case of a patch failure, different patches need different steps to be taken. There is no universal plan of action after a patch has failed.
