It is the pointer embeded in the data structure such as in array,structures or in union. It provides the secondary access. It basically set as null by the server and client stub allocate the memory.

Sometime the value is not null i.e value is set by the server. So in this case the client stubs don't allocate the memory for it but use the allocated existing memory and overwrite the data in it.
