   -- Tasking-Specific Soft Links --

   ---------------------------------
   --  These permit us to leave out certain portions of the tasking
   --  runtime system if they are not used.  They are only used internally
   --  by the tasking runtime system.

   --  So far, the only example is support for Ada.Task_Attributes.

   procedure Initialize_Attributes (T : Task_ID);

   --  Defer the affects of low-level abort and priority change
   --  in the calling task until a matching Undefer_Abor call is executed.
   --  Defer_Abort can be nested; abort will be deferred until the calling
   --  task has called Undefer_Abort for each outstanding call to
   --  Defer_Abort.  Note that abort must be deferred before
   --  calling any low-level (GNULLI) services.

   --  Note : The same routines are defined in System.Tasking.Abortions.
   --  The reason we have two different definitions come from the confliction
   --  between Inlining and the use soft link. That is to say we want this
   --  to be soft linkable (so no inline) and also want to use in RTS code

   --  with Inlining (See the one in System.Tasking.Abortions).
   procedure Undefer_Abort (Self_ID : Task_ID);
   --  Undo the effects of one call to Defer_Abort.  When the calling
   --  task has called Undefer_Abort for each outstanding call to
   --  Defer_Abort, any pending low-level abort or priority change
   --  action will take effect, and subsequent low-level aborts

   --  will have an immediate asynchronous effect.
