Hello,
I am a bit confused about the TSS. The documentation says that it
includes 3 fields SS0, SS1 and SS2 for privilige levels 0, 1, 2
respectively. And are set up when a task is first created, I can't
figure out why these fields are necessary. I think that these fileds
are necessary when we have moved from PL 3 to PL0 and these would
contain information about upper 3 stacks so that information can be
retrived.

Never mind, I was missing something really simple.
