Setting Up the Destination Data Virtual Address

The destination is a bit easier since all the appropriate values will be sent in the incoming message from the process manager's task call:

    struct vir_addr dst;

    dst.proc_nr_e = (extract this from the message)
    dst.segment = D;
    dst.offset = (vir_bytes) (extract this from the message)

Note: vir_bytes is defined as unsigned int in my Minix 3.
