Abstract:

Disclosed are aspects of communication between user-space and kernel-space. In some examples, an application programming interface (API) signature is defined for an API. The API signature specifies a callback and a callback parameter size. A transport allocates temporary storage based on the callback parameter size specified by the API signature. A callback parameter is stored in the temporary storage. The callback is invoked based on the callback parameter.
