9// This file defines MIGChecker, a Mach Interface Generator calling convention
10// checker. Namely, in MIG callback implementation the following rules apply:
11// - When a server routine returns an error code that represents success, it
12// must take ownership of resources passed to it (and eventually release
13// them).
14// - Additionally, when returning success, all out-parameters must be
15// initialized.
16// - When it returns any other error code, it must not take ownership,
17// because the message and its out-of-line parameters will be destroyed
18// by the client that called the function.
19// For now we only check the last rule, as its violations lead to dangerous
20// use-after-free exploits.
