In Samba3 many of the core wire structures in the SMB protocol were
never explicitly defined in Samba. Instead, our parse and generation
functions just worked directly with wire buffers. The biggest problem

msrpc functions. The problem is that we didn't just put all of the
real variables in these structures, we also put in all the artifacts
as well. A good example is the security descriptor strucrure that
*NOT* be in the interface structure.

in by the marshalling code. In Samba4 those rules are gone, because
the redundent artifact variables are gone. The high level caller just
sets up the real variables and the marshalling code worries about
each SMB.
As an example go and have a look at reply_getatr_send() and
-reply_getatr() in smbd/reply.c. Read them? Good.

Notice that reply_getatr() sets up the req->async structure to contain
the send function. Thats how the backend gets to do an async reply, it
