IPC

This page is a stub. The IPC documentation will be written from the kernel source (kernel/src/ipc/, minix-ipc/) as the corresponding code stabilizes.

minix.rs processes communicate exclusively through six message-passing primitives: SEND, RECEIVE, SENDREC, NOTIFY, SENDNB, and SENDA. Message layout, endpoints, and call numbers are preserved from MINIX 3.
