This file is getting bigger, can you put a description at the top?  ("sync IPCs
for blah blah blah, see this wiki page")

The way this is worded, it sounds like you're sending a file descriptor, which I
don't think you are.

+//   fd: descriptor to send the request on
+//   reply: buffer for the reply
