No description provided.

Extern functions may be called from Rust code, but
caution must be taken with respect to the size of the stack
segment, just as when calling an extern function normally.

I like having some mention of how the stack is managed here, so could you mention that tasks have a "large stack" for the C code to run on?

There also appears to be a small mention of extending/releasing stacks in a section about Memory Management, so could you reword that as well?
