java threadump significance of "waiting on condition"

Question

I have a threaddump of an app which showed 3 threads like below.

===============

"http-443-11" daemon prio=10 tid=0x00000000473bc800 nid=0x3590 waiting on condition [0x0000000061818000]
   java.lang.Thread.State: WAITING (parking)
    at sun.misc.Unsafe.park(Native Method)
    - parking to wait for  <0x00000007612a3880> (a java.util.concurrent.Semaphore$NonfairSync)

"http-443-4" daemon prio=10 tid=0x00000000451f6000 nid=0x243a waiting on condition [0x0000000055354000]
   java.lang.Thread.State: WAITING (parking)
    at sun.misc.Unsafe.park(Native Method)
    - parking to wait for  <0x00000007612a3880> (a java.util.concurrent.Semaphore$NonfairSync)

"http-443-7" daemon prio=10 tid=0x000000004602e000 nid=0x2974 waiting on condition [0x000000005e6e7000]
   java.lang.Thread.State: WAITING (parking)
    at sun.misc.Unsafe.park(Native Method)

In the thread stack we can see that threads are daemon threads and are waiting for task to come. Since these threads are created on JVM startup , they dont get killed unless JVM exits or any non daemon thread i not running, thus they wait for tasks to come. Say Garbage collection thread is a daemoon thread which might not be running all the time, it could be in waiting state.
