-Ada Tasks
-=========
-
-This section defines the system configuration parameters supported by
-``<rtems/confdefs.h>`` related to configuring RTEMS to support a task using Ada
-tasking with GNAT/RTEMS.
-
-These configuration parameters are only available when RTEMS is built with the
-``--enable-ada`` configure option and the application specifies
-``CONFIGURE_GNAT_RTEMS``.
-
-Additionally RTEMS includes an Ada language binding to the Classic API which
-has a test suite. This test suite is enabled only when``--enable-tests`` and
-``--enable-expada`` are specified on the configure command.

-CONSTANT:
-    ``CONFIGURE_GNAT_RTEMS``

-DATA TYPE:
-    Boolean feature macro.
-
-RANGE:
-    Defined or undefined.
-
-DEFAULT VALUE:
-    This is not defined by default.
-
-DESCRIPTION:
-    ``CONFIGURE_GNAT_RTEMS`` is defined to inform RTEMS that the GNAT Ada
-    run-time is to be used by the application.
-
-NOTES:
-    This configuration parameter is critical as it makes``<rtems/confdefs.h>``
-    configure the resources (POSIX API Threads, Mutexes, Condition Variables,
-    and Keys) used implicitly by the GNAT run-time.

-
-DEFAULT VALUE:
-    If ``CONFIGURE_GNAT_RTEMS`` is defined, then the default value is 20,
-    otherwise the default value is 0.
-
-DESCRIPTION:
-    ``CONFIGURE_MAXIMUM_ADA_TASKS`` is the number of Ada tasks that can be
-    concurrently active in the system.

-
-DESCRIPTION:
-    ``CONFIGURE_MAXIMUM_FAKE_ADA_TASKS`` is the number of *fake* Ada tasks that
-    can be concurrently active in the system.  A *fake* Ada task is a non-Ada
-    task that makes calls back into Ada code and thus implicitly uses the Ada
-    run-time.

+Ada Configuration
+=================
+
+The GNU Ada runtime library (libgnarl) uses threads, mutexes, condition
+variables, and signals from the pthreads API.  It uses also thread-local storage
