    ipc: Implement attachment brokering for SharedMemoryHandle on Windows. · 3d87ecf7
    erikchen authored
    Each SharedMemoryHandle is backed by a HANDLE, and that HANDLE is associated
    with a specific process. If a SharedMemoryHandle passed to IPC is associated
    with the current process, the IPC stack will automatically broker the handle to
    the destination process.
    
    This functionality has been implemented and tested, but is not yet turned on,
    because there are a couple of Windows-specific Chrome IPC messages that
    intentionally pass a HANDLE associated with another process. I will write a
    follow-up CL that turns on this functionality, and removes those IPC messages.
