NAME

task - General: Contains task-specific information

SYNOPSIS

The task data structure is an opaque data structure; that is, all of its associated members are referenced and manipulated by the operating system and not by the user of kernel threads. Therefore, this reference page omits a description of the task data structure's associated members.

DESCRIPTION

The task data structure contains task-related information.

NOTES

The header file <task.h> shows a typedef statement that assigns the alternate name task_t for a pointer to the task data structure. Some of the kernel threads-related routines require that you pass a pointer to the task data structure.

FILES

<kern/task.h>
