Kernel thread

#include <kern/thread.h>
#include <kern/thread_act.h>
#include <kern/thread_swap.h>
#include <mach/thread_status.h>

Can someone explain to me what thread_t is? I'm having a heckuva time locating its definition. There's a method in the XNU sources current_thread(), which returns a thread_t. You can call get_bsdthread_info() to get a uthread_t. But I'd like to know more about these threads.

Is there documentation somewhere? In particular, how can I get the process ID owning a particular thread_t?
Thanks!
