/**

*
* @ingroup Score
*
* This handler encapsulates functionality which is used to manage
* thread priorities. At the SuperCore level 256 priority levels
* are supported with lower numbers representing logically more important
* threads. The priority level 0 is reserved for internal RTEMS use.
* Typically it is assigned to threads which defer internal RTEMS
* actions from an interrupt to thread level to improve interrupt response.
* Priority level 255 is assigned to the IDLE thread and really should not
* be used by application threads. The default IDLE thread implementation
* is an infinite "branch to self" loop which never yields to other threads
* at the same priority.
