term: task priority
text: |
A task ${priority:/term} 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}.
Task priorities are used in ${waitqueue:/plural} which use the priority
discipline to determine the dequeueing order of tasks.
