Boosts the {\em priority\/} number by the {\em boost\/}. 

\begin{Desc}
\item[Parameters:]
\begin{description}
\item[{\em priority}]The priority number to boost \item[{\em boost}]The amount to boost the {\em priority\/} number\end{description}
\end{Desc}
\begin{Desc}
\item[Returns:]The boosted priority. This will be a number between the minimum, {\em TASK\_\-K\_\-PRIORITY\_\-MIN\/}, and maximum, {\em TASK\_\-K\_\-PRIORITY\_\-MAX\/} allowed priority numbers.\end{Desc}
The specified {\em priority\/} number is boosted by {\em boost\/}. A task assigned a higher priority will run before a task with a lower priority. On some platforms were the highest priority tasks run with a lower priority number, the actual priority number will, in fact, decrease.

The boost can be specified as a positive or negative number. Positive boosts will always result in a priority number that raises a task's absolute priority. Negative numbers will always result in a priority number that lowers a task's priority number.

In all cases the routine will limit the resulting priority between the minimum, {\em TASK\_\-K\_\-PRIORITY\_\-MIN\/} and {\em TASK\_\-K\_\-PRIORITY\_\-MAX\/} numbers.\hypertarget{TASK_8ih_a1}{
