<h3>DESCRIPTION</h3>
<p>
A <strong>do_mach_notify_port_deleted</strong> function is called by
<strong>notify_server</strong> as the
result of a kernel message indicating that a port name is no
longer usable (that is, 
it no longer names a valid right), typically as a result of the right so named
being consumed or moved.  In contrast, a dead-name notification
indicates that the 
port name is now dead as the result of the associated receive
right having died. 
<var>notify</var> is the port named via <strong>mach_port_request_notification</strong>
or <strong>mach_msg</strong>.
<h3>NOTES</h3>
<p>
This interface is machine word length specific because of the port name
parameter.
<h3>RETURN VALUES</h3>
<p>
Only generic errors apply.
