+ // Each outparameter corresponds to a type of resource which will be included

+ // *aSizeUsed:
+ // Raw bytes to be included inline in the message's payload, usually in the
+ // form of a nsCString for a StringInputStreamParams. This must be less
+ // than or equal to `aMaxSize`. Larger payloads should instead be
+ // serialized using SerializeInputStreamAsPipe.
+ // *aPipes:
+ // New pipes, created using SerializeInputStreamAsPipe, which will be used
+ // to asynchronously transfer part of the pipe over IPC. Callers such as
+ // nsMultiplexInputStream may choose to serialize themselves as a DataPipe
+ // if they contain DataPipes themselves, so existing DataPipe instances
+ // which are cheaply transferred should be counted as transferrables.
+ // *aTransferables:
+ // Existing objects which can be more cheaply transferred over IPC than by
+ // serializing them inline in a payload or transferring them through a new
+ // DataPipe. This includes RemoteLazyInputStreams, FileDescriptors, and
+ // existing DataPipeReceiver instances.
+ //
+ // Callers of this method must have initialized all of `*aSizeUsed`,
+ // `*aPipes`, and `*aTransferables` to 0, so implementations are not required
+ // to initialize all outparameters. The outparameters must not be null.
