IPC Protocols: Difference between revisions

There will be many IPC protocols, and they should all be as error-free as possible by design.  Having separate protocols for separate uses is a good thing, and they all shouldn't be multiplexed by hand over a shared transport layer.  Further, protocol implementations should only have to check for errors as infrequently as possible; the heavy lifting should be done generically, or by code generated from high-level specifications.
