ARGUMENTS
task The task getting the new rights.
my_port Rights supplied by the caller.
his_name The name by which task will know the new rights.
DESCRIPTION
port_insert_send and port_insert_receive give a task rights
with a
specific name. If task already has rights named his_name, or
has
some other name for my_port, then the operation will fail.
his_name can’t be a distinguished value like
PORT_NULL.
port_insert_send inserts send
rights, and port_insert_receive
inserts receive and ownership rights.
DIAGNOSTICS
KERN_SUCCESS The call succeeded.
KERN_NAME_EXISTS task already has a right named his_name.
KERN_FAILURE task already has rights to my_port.
KERN_INVALID_ARGUMENT task was
invalid or new_name was an
invalid name.
BUGS
There is no way to insert just receive rights or just
ownership
rights.
