 /*
- * Defines
+ * Extra Stack Space for overhead -
+ *
+ * glibc pthreads implicitly puts its TCB/TLS structures at the base of the stack.
+ * The actual size of these structures is highly system and configuration dependent.
+ * Experimentation/measurement on an x64-64 system with glibc shows this to consume
+ * between 9-10kB of stack space off the top.
+ *
+ * There does not seem to be a reliable/standardized way of determining how large this
+ * is going to be, but PTHREAD_STACK_MIN (if defined) should include adequate space for it.
+ * If this is not defined, then just assume 1 page.
+ *
+ * Importantly - when the user passes a stack size to OS_TaskCreate() - the expectation is
+ * that there will be at least this amount of real _usable_ space for the task.  If 10kB
+ * is used before the entry point is even called, this needs to be accounted for, or else
+ * the stack might end up being too small.
