[ros-dev] WIN32K: LPC use

[Emanuele Aliberti]

This is just a note for the WIN32K developers.

I ran the dumppe utility to compare imported symbols in WIN32K.SYS on a 
real system and on ROS'. Here are the results.

ReactOS WIN32K.SYS exported symbols containg substing "Port":
   ZwConnectPort
   ZwRequestWaitReplyPort

XPSP2 WIN32K.SYS exported symbols containg substing "Port":
  LpcRequestWaitReplyPort
  PsGetProcessDebugPort
  LpcRequestPort

This suggests port handles are not used in regular LPC processing within 
WIN32K and that there is not a twin connection to \Windows\ApiPort 
(ntuser/csr.c).
