The RPC Execution Order, continued

  1. The server stub has been waiting on any client's request.

    It unmarshals the arguments from the network messages and possibly converts them to its own (architecture's) format.

     

  2. The server stub executes a local procedure call to invoke the actual server function.

     

  3. When the server procedure is finished it returns (normally) to the server stub, returning any required arguments.
