// The ownership semantics of |mach_port_| cannot be easily expressed with a
// C++ scoped object. This is partly due to the mechanism by which Mach ports
// are brokered, and partly due to the architecture of Chrome IPC.
//
// The broker for Mach ports may live in a different process than the sender
// of the original Chrome IPC. In this case, it is signalled asynchronously,
// and ownership of the Mach port passes from the sender process into the
// broker process.
//
// Chrome IPC is written with the assumption that translation is a stateless
// process. There is no good mechanism to convey the semantics of ownership
// transfer from the Chrome IPC stack into the client code that receives the
// translated message. As a result, Chrome IPC code assumes that every message
// has a handler, and that the handler will take ownership of the Mach port.
// Note that the same holds true for POSIX fds and Windows HANDLEs.
//
// When used by client code in the sender process, this class is just a
// wrapper. The client code calls Send(new Message(MachPortMac(mach_port)))
// and continues on its merry way. Behind the scenes, a MachPortAttachmentMac
// takes ownership of the Mach port. When the attachment broker sends the name
// of the Mach port to the broker process, it also releases
// MachPortAttachmentMac's reference to the Mach port, as ownership has
// effectively been transferred to the broker process.
//
// The broker process receives the name, duplicates the Mach port into the
// destination process, and then decrements the ref count in the original
// process.
//
// In the destination process, the attachment broker is responsible for
// coupling the Mach port (inserted by the broker process) with Chrome IPC in
// the form of a MachPortAttachmentMac. Due to the Chrome IPC translation
// semantics discussed above, this MachPortAttachmentMac does not take
// ownership of the Mach port, and assumes that the client code which receives
// the callback will take ownership of the Mach port.
