- `qrexec-policy` evaluates the policy file. If successful, creates a pair of `qrexec-client` processes, whose stdin/stdout are cross-connencted.
- The first `qrexec-client` connects to the src VM, using the `-c ClientID` parameter, which results in not creating a new process, but connecting to the existing process file descriptors (these are the fds of unix socket created in step 1).
- The second `qrexec-client` connects to the target VM, and executes `qubes-rpc-multiplexer` command there with the rpc action as the cmdline argument. Finally, `qubes-rpc-multiplexer` executes the correct rpc server on the target.
- In the above step, if the target VM is `$dispvm`, the dispvm is created via the `qfile-daemon-dvm` program. The latter waits for the `qrexec-client` process to exit, and then destroys the dispvm.
