+/**
+ * rpc_mkpipe - make an rpc_pipefs file for kernel<->userspace communication
+ * @parent: dentry of directory to create new "pipe" in
+ * @name: name of pipe
+ * @private: private data to associate with the pipe, for the caller's use
+ * @ops: operations defining the behavior of the pipe: upcall, downcall,
+ * release_pipe, and destroy_msg.
+ * @flags: rpc_inode flags
+ *
+ * Data is made available for userspace to read by calls to
+ * rpc_queue_upcall(). The actual reads will result in calls to
+ * @ops->upcall, which will be called with the file pointer,
+ * message, and userspace buffer to copy to.
+ *
+ * Writes can come at any time, and do not necessarily have to be
+ * responses to upcalls. They will result in calls to @msg->downcall.
+ *
+ * The @private argument passed here will be available to all these methods
+ * from the file pointer, via RPC_I(file->f_dentry->d_inode)->private.
