  33 --  RTS. This package must be elaborated before any tasking features are used.

  42    --  ATCB is deallocated. It relies on the caller holding T.L write-lock

  50    -- Abort Defer/Undefer --
  51    -------------------------
  52 
  53    --  Defer_Abort defers the effects of low-level abort and priority change
  54    --  in the calling task until a matching Undefer_Abort call is executed.
  55 
  56    --  Undefer_Abort DOES MORE than just undo the effects of one call to
  57    --  Defer_Abort. It is the universal "polling point" for deferred
  58    --  processing, including the following:
  59 
  60    --  1) base priority changes
  61 
  62    --  2) abort/ATC
  63 
  64    --  Abort deferral MAY be nested (Self_ID.Deferral_Level is a count), but
  65    --  to avoid waste and undetected errors, it generally SHOULD NOT be
  66    --  nested. The symptom of over-deferring abort is that an exception may
  67    --  fail to be raised, or an abort may fail to take place.
  68 
  69    --  Therefore, there are two sets of the inlineable defer/undefer routines,
  70    --  which are the ones to be used inside GNARL. One set allows nesting. The
  71    --  other does not. People who maintain the GNARL should try to avoid using
  72    --  the nested versions, or at least look very critically at the places
  73    --  where they are used.
  74 
  75    --  In general, any GNARL call that is potentially blocking, or whose
  76    --  semantics require that it sometimes raise an exception, or that is
  77    --  required to be an abort completion point, must be made with abort
  78    --  Deferral_Level = 1.
  79 
  80    --  In general, non-blocking GNARL calls, which may be made from inside a
  81    --  protected action, are likely to need to allow nested abort deferral.
  82 
  83    --  With some critical exceptions (which are supposed to be documented),
  84    --  internal calls to the tasking runtime system assume abort is already
  85    --  deferred, and do not modify the deferral level.
  86 
  87    --  There is also a set of non-inlineable defer/undefer routines, for direct
  88    --  call from the compiler. These are not inlineable because they may need
  89    --  to be called via pointers ("soft links"). For the sake of efficiency,
  90    --  the version with Self_ID as parameter should used wherever possible.
