SRX

SRX (transfer Mach send right).

SYNOPSIS
SRX is a send-right transfer protocol, used to transfer a Mach send right when there are more than two parties involved (i.e., when the original holder of the send right, the new holder of the send right, and the holder of the receive right are on different hosts.)

EXTERNAL INTERFACE
SRX uses subroutine calls to accept transfer requests, and to notify MachNetIPC of the arrival of new rights.

CONFIGURATION
SRX depends on a synchronous lower protocol and BIDCTL to detect reboots.
