16<h3>PARAMETERS</h3>
17<dl>
18<p>
19<dt><var>host_security</var>
20<dd>
21[in security send right] The host's security port.
22<p>
23<dt><var>parent_task</var>
24<dd>
25[in task send right] The port for the task from which to draw the child 
26task's port rights and address space.
27<p>
28<dt><var>security_token</var>
29<dd>
30[in scalar] The task's security token.
31<p>
32<dt><var>audit_token</var>
33<dd>
34[in scalar] The task's audit token.
35<p>
36<dt><var>ledgers</var>
37<dd>
38[pointer to in array of ledger send rights] The set of ledgers from which the
39task will draw its resources.
40<p>
41<dt><var>inherit_memory</var>
42<dd>
43[in scalar] Address space inheritance indicator. If true, the child task in-
44herits the address space of the parent task. If false, the kernel assigns 
45the child task an empty address space.
46<p>
47<dt><var>child_task</var>
48<dd>
49[out task send right] The kernel-assigned port name for the new task.

51<h3>DESCRIPTION</h3>
52<p>
53The <strong><strong>host_security_create_task_token</strong> function creates a new task from
54<var>parent_task</var> with explicit security and audit token values, returning the name of the
55new task in the parameter specified by <var>child_task</var>. Other than the security and audit token values, the child task
56is as if created by <strong>task_create</strong>.
57<h3>NOTES</h3>
58<p>
59The host security port is a privileged port given to the system
60bootstrap task for the use of this call.
61<h3>RETURN VALUES</h3>
62<dl>
63<p>
64<dt> <strong>KERN_INVALID_SECURITY</strong>
65<dd>
66The value of <var>host_security</var> does not specify the security port for the host on which task lies.
