40 * These are the calls for accessing the policy parameters
41 * of a particular task.
42 *
43 * The extra 'get_default' parameter to the second call is
44 * IN/OUT as follows:
45 * 1) if asserted on the way in it indicates that the default
46 * values should be returned, not the ones currently set, in
47 * this case 'get_default' will always be asserted on return;
48 * 2) if unasserted on the way in, the current settings are
49 * desired and if still unasserted on return, then the info
50 * returned reflects the current settings, otherwise if
51 * 'get_default' returns asserted, it means that there are no
52 * current settings due to other parameters taking precedence,
53 * and the default ones are being returned instead.

85 * role: Enumerated as follows:
86 *
87 * TASK_UNSPECIFIED is the default, since the role is not
88 * inherited from the parent.
89 *
90 * TASK_FOREGROUND_APPLICATION should be assigned when the
91 * task is a normal UI application in the foreground from
92 * the HI point of view.
93 * **N.B. There may be more than one of these at a given time.
94 *
95 * TASK_BACKGROUND_APPLICATION should be assigned when the
96 * task is a normal UI application in the background from
97 * the HI point of view.
98 *
99 * TASK_CONTROL_APPLICATION should be assigned to the unique
100 * UI application which implements the pop-up application dialog.
101 * There can only be one task at a time with this designation,
102 * which is assigned FCFS.
103 *
104 * TASK_GRAPHICS_SERVER should be assigned to the graphics
105 * management (window) server. There can only be one task at
106 * a time with this designation, which is assigned FCFS.
