+text: |
+ A task priority of a ${task:/term} determines its importance relative to
+ other tasks. The scheduler use task priorities to determine which
+ ${readytask:/term} gets a processor allocated, see ${scheduledtask:/term}. The
+ ${priority-eligible:/plural} of a task define the position of the task in a
+ ${waitqueue:/term} which uses the priority discipline. Each task has at
+ least the ${priority-real:/term}.
