  // A service's ability to bind interfaces exposed by another is controlled by

  // If policy prevents the requesting service from binding the specified
  // interface, the request pipe will be closed.
  //
  // Parameters:
  //
  //  target
  //    The identity of the service instance to route the request to. If no
  //    instance exists, the service will be started.
  //
  //  interface_name
  //    The name of the interface to be bound. If the target service does not
  //    expose an interface of this name, the request pipe will be closed.

  //  interface_pipe
  //    A message pipe endpoint encapsulating a request for an interface named

  //  identity
  //    The fully resolved identity of the instance in the service manager, with
  //    a resolved user id. Typically the client passes |kInheritUserID| as the
  //    user id to BindInterface(), which will be resolved by the service
  //    manager into a concrete user id.

  // Parameters:

  //  target

  //
  // Response parameters:
  //
  //  result

  // Typically, the service manager will start a process for a service the first
  // time it receives a bind interface request for it, or when StartService() is
  // called. This struct allows a client to start the process itself and provide
  // the service manager the pipes it needs to communicate with it. When this
  // function is called, the client owns the lifetime of the child process it
  // started, not the service manager. The service manager binds the |service|
  // pipe, and when it closes destroys the associated instance but the process
  // stays alive.
  //
  // Parameters:
  //
  //  target
  //    The identity of the service to create the instance for.
  //
  //  service
  //    A pipe to an implementation of Service that the service manager can use
  //    to communicate with the service.
  //
  //  pid_receiver_request
  //   Allows the client process launcher to tell the service manager the PID of

  //   called.)
