What a mess. Let's try to clean it up a bit.

The type of parameter is described by the bits 1-3 in the translation descriptor. Parameter types accepted for sending by the kernel are: 0, 1, 2, 5, 6, 7.

For replies, only 0, 1, 5, 6, 7 are allowed. In other words any type 2 fields must be zeroed before calling svcReplyAndReceive on the server-side. For replies, type 0, 1, and 2 are ignored. Types 5, 6, and 7 do something with the mem pointer upon reply. The type 0 descriptor can be used to ignore parameters. The number of parameters covered by a type-0 descriptor is (desc >> 26) + 1.
== Handle Translation ==
Translation type 0 is used to send handles across processes. The corresponding translation descriptor has the following structure:
{| class="wikitable" border="1"
{| class="wikitable" border="1"

| Copies the given KHandles to the receiving process, i.e. creating new handles in the target process while keeping around the ones of the source process. When a handle value is 0x0, value 0x0 is written to the destination cmdbuf without doing any actual handle-transfer.
