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

  *
  *

- *     [The basic port_t type should probably be machine-dependent,
- *     as it must be represented by a 32-bit integer.]

+ *     mach_port_t - a named port right

  *
  *

- * The type port_t represents a reference added or deleted to a
- * port right.
+ *     In the kernel, "rights" are represented [named] by pointers to
+ *     the ipc port object in question. There is no port namespace for the
+ *     rights to be collected.

  *
  *

- *     At user space, this is represented by returning the name of
- *     the right(s) that got altered within the user's ipc space.
- *     So a port_t is the same type as a port_name_t there.
+ *     Actually, there is namespace for the kernel task.  But most kernel
+ *     code - including, but not limited to, Mach IPC code - lives in the
+ *     limbo between the current user-level task and the "next" task. Very
+ *     little of the kernel code runs in full kernel task context.  So very
+ *     little of it gets to use the kernel task's port name space.  

  *
  *

- *     Since there is no right space for the kernel proper (all rights
- *     are naked rights) these rights are represented by passing a
- *     pointer to the specific ipc_object_t subclass (typically
- *     ipc_port_t) that got altered/is to be altered.
+ *     Because of this implementation approach, all in-kernel rights for
+ *     a given port coalesce [have the same name/pointer].  The actual
+ *     references are counted in the port itself.  It is up to the kernel
+ *     code in question to "just remember" how many [and what type of]
+ *     rights it holds and handle them appropriately.
