-- stack checking can be found in package System.Stack_Checking.Operations.

-- task control block in the tasking case.
-- This specific layout has the advantage of being compatible with the

type Stack_Access is access all Stack_Info;
-- Unique local storage associated with a specific task. This storage is
-- used for the stack base and limit, and is returned by Checked_Self.
-- Only self may write this information, it may be read by any task.
-- At no time the address range Limit .. Base (or Base .. Limit for
-- upgrowing stack) may contain any address that is part of another stack.
-- The Stack_Access may be part of a larger data structure.
