* Capabilities
*
- * The notion of a capability is used when operating in multi-threaded
- * environments (which the THREADED_RTS build of the RTS does), to
- * hold all the state an OS thread/task needs to run Haskell code:
- * its STG registers, a pointer to its TSO, a nursery etc. During
- * STG execution, a pointer to the capabilitity is kept in a
- * register (BaseReg).
+ * For details on the high-level design, see
+ * http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Commentary/Rts/Scheduler
*
- * Only in an THREADED_RTS build will there be multiple capabilities,
- * in the non-threaded builds there is one global capability, namely

- * This header file contains the functions for working with capabilities.
