55 * Definition of a Mach port
56 *
57 * Mach ports are the endpoints to Mach-implemented communications
58 * channels (usually uni-directional message queues, but other types
59 * also exist).
60 *
61 * Unique collections of these endpoints are maintained for each
62 * Mach task. Each Mach port in the task's collection is given a
63 * [task-local] name to identify it - and the the various "rights"
64 * held by the task for that specific endpoint.
65 *
66 * This header defines the types used to identify these Mach ports
67 * and the various rights associated with them. For more info see:
68 *
69 * <mach/mach_port.h> - manipulation of port rights in a given space
70 * <mach/message.h> - message queue [and port right passing] mechanism

85 * identify the rights held for that port by the task whose
86 * namespace is implied [or specifically provided].
87 *
88 * Use of this type usually implies just a name - no rights.

99 * mach_port_t - a named port right
100 *
101 * In the kernel, "rights" are represented [named] by pointers to
102 * the ipc port object in question. There is no port namespace for the
103 * rights to be collected.
104 *
105 * Actually, there is namespace for the kernel task. But most kernel
106 * code - including, but not limited to, Mach IPC code - lives in the
107 * limbo between the current user-level task and the "next" task. Very
108 * little of the kernel code runs in full kernel task context. So very
109 * little of it gets to use the kernel task's port name space.
110 *
111 * Because of this implementation approach, all in-kernel rights for
112 * a given port coalesce [have the same name/pointer]. The actual
113 * references are counted in the port itself. It is up to the kernel
114 * code in question to "just remember" how many [and what type of]
115 * rights it holds and handle them appropriately.
