29 * These are the calls for accessing the policy parameters
30 * of a particular task.
31 *
32 * The extra 'get_default' parameter to the second call is
33 * IN/OUT as follows:
34 * 1) if asserted on the way in it indicates that the default
35 * values should be returned, not the ones currently set, in
36 * this case 'get_default' will always be asserted on return;
37 * 2) if unasserted on the way in, the current settings are
38 * desired and if still unasserted on return, then the info
39 * returned reflects the current settings, otherwise if
40 * 'get_default' returns asserted, it means that there are no
41 * current settings due to other parameters taking precedence,
42 * and the default ones are being returned instead.

69 * This provides information to the kernel about the role

71 *
72 * Parameters:
73 *
74 * role: Enumerated as follows:
75 *
76 * TASK_UNSPECIFIED is the default, since the role is not
77 * inherited from the parent.
78 *
79 * TASK_FOREGROUND_APPLICATION should be assigned when the
80 * task is a normal UI application in the foreground from
81 * the HI point of view.
82 * **N.B. There may be more than one of these at a given time.
83 *
84 * TASK_BACKGROUND_APPLICATION should be assigned when the
85 * task is a normal UI application in the background from
86 * the HI point of view.
87 *
88 * TASK_CONTROL_APPLICATION should be assigned to the unique
89 * UI application which implements the pop-up application dialog.
90 * There can only be one task at a time with this designation,
91 * which is assigned FCFS.
92 *
93 * TASK_GRAPHICS_SERVER should be assigned to the graphics
94 * management (window) server. There can only be one task at
95 * a time with this designation, which is assigned FCFS.
