BINDER_TYPE_PTR objects point to memory areas in the source process to be copied into the target buffer as part of a transaction. This implements a scatter- gather model where non-contiguous memory in a source process is "gathered" into a contiguous region in the target buffer. The data can include pointers that must be fixed up to correctly point to the copied data. To avoid making source process pointers visible to the target process, this patch defers the copy until the fixups are known and then copies and fixeups are done together. There is a special case of BINDER_TYPE_FDA which applies the fixup later in the target process context. In this case the user data is skipped (so no untranslated fds become visible to the target).

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
