 * @class OSMetaClassBase
 *
 * @abstract
 * OSMetaClassBase is the abstract bootstrap class
 * for the Libkern and I/O Kit run-time type information system.
 *
 * @discussion
 * OSMetaClassBase is the abstract C++ root class
 * underlying the entire Libkern and I/O Kit class hierarchy.
 * It defines the run-time type information system,
 * including dynamic class allocation and safe type-casting,
 * as well as the abstract interface for reference counting
 * and a few other utility functions.
 * OSMetaClassBase is the immediate superclass of
 * @link //apple_ref/doc/class/OSObject OSObject@/link and
 * @link //apple_ref/doc/class/OSMetaClass OSMetaClass@/link;
 * no other class should derive from OSMetaClassBase.
 *
 * For more information, see
 * <i>@link //apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40002799
 * I/O Kit Device Driver Design Guidelines@/link</i>.
 *
 * <b>Use by Kernel Extensions</b>
 *
 * Kernel Extensions should never interact directly with OSMetaClassBase,
 * but they will find useful several macros that tie in
 * to the run-time type information system, specifically:
 * <ul>
 * <li><code>@link OSTypeAlloc OSTypeAlloc@/link</code> - allocation of new instances</li>
 * <li><code>@link OSDynamicCast OSDynamicCast@/link</code> - safe type casting</li>
 * <li><code>@link OSCheckTypeInst OSCheckTypeInst@/link</code> -
 *     checking for inheritance/derivation</li>
 * <li><code>@link OSMemberFunctionCast OSMemberFunctionCast@/link</code> -
 *     casting C++ member functions to C function pointers
 *     for registration as callbacks</li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * See @link //apple_ref/doc/class/OSMetaClass OSMetaClass@/link
 * for more run-time type information interfaces.
 *
 * <b>Use Restrictions</b>
 *
 * OSMetaClassBase should not be subclassed by kernel extensions,
 * nor should kernel extensions call its run-time type functions directly.
 *
 * The run-time type functions and macros are <b>not safe</b>
 *  to call in a primary interrupt context.
 *
 * <b>Concurrency Protection</b>
 *
 * The run-time type macros and functions of OSMetaClassBase are thread-safe.

 * @class OSMetaClass
 *
 * @abstract
 * OSMetaClass manages run-time type information
 * for Libkern and I/O Kit C++ classes.
 *
 * @discussion
 *
 * OSMetaClass manages run-time type information
 * for Libkern and I/O Kit C++ classes.
 * An instance of OSMetaClass exists for (nearly) every such C++ class,
 * keeping track of inheritance relationships, class lookup by name,
 * instance counts, and more.
 * OSMetaClass operates almost entirely behind the scenes,
 * and kernel extensions should rarely, if ever,
 * have to interact directly with OSMetaClass.
 *
 * <b>Use by Kernel Extensions</b>
 *
 * While kernel extensions rarey interact directly with OSMetaClass at run time,
 * they must register their classes with the metaclass system
 * using the macros declared here.
 * The class declaration should use one of these two macros
 * before its first member function declaration:
 * <ul>
 * <li><code>@link OSDeclareDefaultStructors OSDeclareDefaultStructors@/link</code> -
 *     for classes with no abstract member function declarations</li>
 * <li><code>@link OSDeclareAbstractStructors OSDeclareAbstractStructors@/link</code> -
 *     for classes with at least one abstract member function declaration</li>
 * <li><code>@link OSDeclareFinalStructors OSDeclareFinalStructors@/link</code> -
 *     for classes that should not be subclassable by another kext</li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * The class implementation should then use one of these macros:
 * <ul>
 * <li><code>@link OSDefineMetaClassAndStructors
 *           OSDefineMetaClassAndStructors@/link</code> -
 *     for classes with no abstract member function declarations</li>
 * <li><code>@link OSDefineMetaClassAndAbstractStructors
 *           OSDefineMetaClassAndAbstractStructors@/link</code> -
 *     for classes with at least one abstract member function declaration</li>
 * <li><code>@link OSDefineMetaClassAndFinalStructors
 *           OSDefineMetaClassAndFinalStructors@/link</code> -
 *     for classes that should not be subclassable by another kext</li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * Classes in kernel extensions that are intended for use as libraries
 * may need to reserve vtable slots to preserve binary compatibility
 * as new functions are added. They may do so with these macros:
 * <ul>
 * <li><code>@link OSMetaClassDeclareReservedUnused
 *           OSMetaClassDeclareReservedUnused@/link</code> -
 *     reserves a vtable slot</li>
 * <li><code>@link OSMetaClassDefineReservedUnused
 *           OSMetaClassDefineReservedUnused@/link</code> -
 *     defines the reserved vtable slot as an unimplemented function</li>
 * <li><code>@link OSMetaClassDeclareReservedUsed
 *           OSMetaClassDeclareReservedUsed@/link</code> -
 *     documents that a formerly reserved slot is now used</li>
 * <li><code>@link OSMetaClassDefineReservedUsed
 *           OSMetaClassDefineReservedUsed@/link</code> -
 *    documents that a formerly reserved slot is now used</li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * <b>Use Restrictions</b>
 *
 * OSMetaClass should not be explicitly subclassed by kernel extensions
 * (the declare/define macros do that),
 * nor should kernel extensions call its run-time type functions directly.
 *
 * OSMetaClass functions should be considered
 * <b>unsafe</b> to call in a primary interrupt context.
 *
 * <b>Concurrency Protection</b>
 *
 * Kernel extensions should in general not interact
 * with OSMetaClass objects directly,
 * instead using the run-time type macros.
 * Much of OSMetaClass's interface is intended for use
 * by the run-time type information system,
 * which handles concurrency and locking internally.
