System Programming Interface. One of those Apple terms for "the layers
of the cake you're not allowed to touch." Although the actual
definition seems to be kind of nebulous.
I should mention the caveat that my information is second-hand. Our
engineering lead has mentioned that we've received complaints from
Apple about our use of Mach ports in the past.
The iOS SDK contains the Mach headers and all the relevant symbols,
but that doesn't say anything about whether app review will reject
your app for making Mach calls.
FWIW, calling current_task() doesn't crash my app immediately. Perhaps
I'm wrong about the strictness of Apple's policy on Mach usage.
