29// Channels are implemented using named pipes on Windows, and
30// socket pairs (or in some special cases unix domain sockets) on POSIX.
31// On Windows we access pipes in various processes by name.
32// On POSIX we pass file descriptors to child processes and assign names to them
33// in a lookup table.
34// In general on POSIX we do not use unix domain sockets due to security
35// concerns and the fact that they can leave garbage around the file system
36// (MacOS does not support abstract named unix domain sockets).
37// You can use unix domain sockets if you like on POSIX by constructing the
38// the channel with the mode set to one of the NAMED modes. NAMED modes are
39// currently used by automation and service processes.
