     37  * @ingroup DBus
     38  * @brief Functions for communicating with the message bus
     39  *
     40  * dbus_bus_get() allows all modules and libraries in a given
     41  * process to share the same connection to the bus daemon by storing
     42  * the connection globally.
     43  *
     44  * All other functions in this module are just convenience functions;
     45  * most of them invoke methods on the bus daemon, by sending method
     46  * call messages to #DBUS_SERVICE_DBUS. These convenience functions
     47  * often make blocking method calls. If you don't want to block,
     48  * you can send the method call messages manually in the same way
     49  * you would any other method call message.
     50  *
     51  * This module is the only one in libdbus that's specific to
     52  * communicating with the message bus daemon. The rest of the API can
     53  * also be used for connecting to another application directly.
     54  *
     55  * @todo right now the default address of the system bus is hardcoded,
     56  * so if you change it in the global config file suddenly you have to
     57  * set DBUS_SYSTEM_BUS_ADDRESS env variable.  Might be nice if the
     58  * client lib somehow read the config file, or if the bus on startup
     59  * somehow wrote out its address to a well-known spot, but might also
     60  * not be worth it.

    998  * Asks the bus to assign the given name to this connection by invoking
    999  * the RequestName method on the bus. This method is fully documented
   1000  * in the D-Bus specification. For quick reference, the flags and
   1001  * result codes are discussed here, but the specification is the
   1002  * canonical version of this information.
   1003  *
   1004  * First you should know that for each bus name, the bus stores
   1005  * a queue of connections that would like to own it. Only
   1006  * one owns it at a time - called the primary owner. If the primary
   1007  * owner releases the name or disconnects, then the next owner in the
   1008  * queue atomically takes over.
   1009  *
   1010  * So for example if you have an application org.freedesktop.TextEditor
   1011  * and multiple instances of it can be run, you can have all of them
   1012  * sitting in the queue. The first one to start up will receive messages
   1013  * sent to org.freedesktop.TextEditor, but if that one exits another
   1014  * will become the primary owner and receive messages.
   1015  *
   1016  * The queue means you don't need to manually watch for the current owner to
   1017  * disappear and then request the name again.
   1018  *
   1019  * When requesting a name, you can specify several flags.
   1020  *
   1021  * #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_ALLOW_REPLACEMENT and #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_DO_NOT_QUEUE
   1022  * are properties stored by the bus for this connection with respect to
   1023  * each requested bus name. These properties are stored even if the
   1024  * connection is queued and does not become the primary owner.
   1025  * You can update these flags by calling RequestName again (even if
   1026  * you already own the name).
   1027  *
   1028  * #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_ALLOW_REPLACEMENT means that another requestor of the
   1029  * name can take it away from you by specifying #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_REPLACE_EXISTING.
   1030  *
   1031  * #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_DO_NOT_QUEUE means that if you aren't the primary owner,
   1032  * you don't want to be queued up - you only care about being the
   1033  * primary owner.
   1034  *
   1035  * Unlike the other two flags, #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_REPLACE_EXISTING is a property
   1036  * of the individual RequestName call, i.e. the bus does not persistently
   1037  * associate it with the connection-name pair. If a RequestName call includes
   1038  * the #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_REPLACE_EXISTING flag, and the current primary
   1039  * owner has #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_ALLOW_REPLACEMENT set, then the current primary
   1040  * owner will be kicked off.
   1041  *
   1042  * If no flags are given, an application will receive the requested
   1043  * name only if the name is currently unowned; and it will NOT give
   1044  * up the name if another application asks to take it over using
   1045  * #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_REPLACE_EXISTING.
   1046  *
   1047  * This function returns a result code. The possible result codes
   1048  * are as follows.
   1049  *
   1050  * #DBUS_REQUEST_NAME_REPLY_PRIMARY_OWNER means that the name had no
   1051  * existing owner, and the caller is now the primary owner; or that
   1052  * the name had an owner, and the caller specified
   1053  * #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_REPLACE_EXISTING, and the current owner
   1054  * specified #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_ALLOW_REPLACEMENT.
   1055  *
   1056  * #DBUS_REQUEST_NAME_REPLY_IN_QUEUE happens only if the caller does NOT
   1057  * specify #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_DO_NOT_QUEUE and either the current owner
   1058  * did NOT specify #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_ALLOW_REPLACEMENT or the caller did NOT
   1059  * specify #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_REPLACE_EXISTING. In this case the caller ends up
   1060  * in a queue to own the name after the current owner gives it up.
   1061  *
   1062  * #DBUS_REQUEST_NAME_REPLY_EXISTS happens if the name has an owner
   1063  * already and the caller specifies #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_DO_NOT_QUEUE
   1064  * and either the current owner has NOT specified
   1065  * #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_ALLOW_REPLACEMENT or the caller did NOT specify
   1066  * #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_REPLACE_EXISTING.
   1067  *
   1068  * #DBUS_REQUEST_NAME_REPLY_ALREADY_OWNER happens if an application
   1069  * requests a name it already owns. (Re-requesting a name is useful if
   1070  * you want to change the #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_ALLOW_REPLACEMENT or
   1071  * #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_DO_NOT_QUEUE settings.)
   1072  *
   1073  * When a service represents an application, say "text editor," then
   1074  * it should specify #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_ALLOW_REPLACEMENT if it wants
   1075  * the last editor started to be the user's editor vs. the first one
   1076  * started.  Then any editor that can be the user's editor should
   1077  * specify #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_REPLACE_EXISTING to either take over
   1078  * (last-started-wins) or be queued up (first-started-wins) according
   1079  * to whether #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_ALLOW_REPLACEMENT was given.
   1080  *
   1081  * Conventionally, single-instance applications often offer a command
   1082  * line option called --replace which means to replace the current
   1083  * instance.  To implement this, always set
   1084  * #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_ALLOW_REPLACEMENT when you request your
   1085  * application's bus name.  When you lose ownership of your bus name,
   1086  * you need to exit.  Look for the signal "NameLost" from
   1087  * #DBUS_SERVICE_DBUS and #DBUS_INTERFACE_DBUS (the signal's first
   1088  * argument is the bus name that was lost).  If starting up without
   1089  * --replace, do not specify #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_REPLACE_EXISTING, and
   1090  * exit if you fail to become the bus name owner. If --replace is
   1091  * given, ask to replace the old owner.

   1426  * Adds a match rule to match messages going through the message bus.
   1427  * The "rule" argument is the string form of a match rule.
   1428  *
   1429  * If you pass #NULL for the error, this function will not
   1430  * block; the match thus won't be added until you flush the
   1431  * connection, and if there's an error adding the match
   1432  * you won't find out about it. This is generally acceptable, since the
   1433  * possible errors (including a lack of resources in the bus, the connection
   1434  * having exceeded its quota of active match rules, or the match rule being
   1435  * unparseable) are generally unrecoverable.
   1436  *
   1437  * If you pass non-#NULL for the error this function will
   1438  * block until it gets a reply. This may be useful when using match rule keys
   1439  * introduced in recent versions of D-Bus, like 'arg0namespace', to allow the
   1440  * application to fall back to less efficient match rules supported by older
   1441  * versions of the daemon if the running version is not new enough; or when
   1442  * using user-supplied rules rather than rules hard-coded at compile time.
   1443  *
   1444  * Normal API conventions would have the function return
   1445  * a boolean value indicating whether the error was set,
   1446  * but that would require blocking always to determine
   1447  * the return value.
   1448  *
   1449  * The AddMatch method is fully documented in the D-Bus
   1450  * specification. For quick reference, the format of the
   1451  * match rules is discussed here, but the specification
   1452  * is the canonical version of this information.
   1453  *
   1454  * Rules are specified as a string of comma separated
   1455  * key/value pairs. An example is
   1456  * "type='signal',sender='org.freedesktop.DBus',
   1457  * interface='org.freedesktop.DBus',member='Foo',
   1458  * path='/bar/foo',destination=':452345.34'"
   1459  *
   1460  * Possible keys you can match on are type, sender,
   1461  * interface, member, path, destination and numbered
   1462  * keys to match message args (keys are 'arg0', 'arg1', etc.).
   1463  * Omitting a key from the rule indicates
   1464  * a wildcard match.  For instance omitting
   1465  * the member from a match rule but adding a sender would
   1466  * let all messages from that sender through regardless of
   1467  * the member.
   1468  *
   1469  * Matches are inclusive not exclusive so as long as one
   1470  * rule matches the message will get through.  It is important
   1471  * to note this because every time a message is received the
   1472  * application will be paged into memory to process it.  This
   1473  * can cause performance problems such as draining batteries
   1474  * on embedded platforms.
   1475  *
   1476  * If you match message args ('arg0', 'arg1', and so forth)
   1477  * only string arguments will match. That is, arg0='5' means
   1478  * match the string "5" not the integer 5.
   1479  *
   1480  * Currently there is no way to match against non-string arguments.
   1481  *
   1482  * A specialised form of wildcard matching on arguments is
   1483  * supported for path-like namespaces.  If your argument match has
   1484  * a 'path' suffix (eg: "arg0path='/some/path/'") then it is
   1485  * considered a match if the argument exactly matches the given
   1486  * string or if one of them ends in a '/' and is a prefix of the
   1487  * other.
   1488  *
   1489  * Matching on interface is tricky because method call
   1490  * messages only optionally specify the interface.
   1491  * If a message omits the interface, then it will NOT match
   1492  * if the rule specifies an interface name. This means match
   1493  * rules on method calls should not usually give an interface.
   1494  *
   1495  * However, signal messages are required to include the interface
   1496  * so when matching signals usually you should specify the interface
   1497  * in the match rule.
   1498  *
   1499  * For security reasons, you can match arguments only up to
   1500  * #DBUS_MAXIMUM_MATCH_RULE_ARG_NUMBER.
   1501  *
   1502  * Match rules have a maximum length of #DBUS_MAXIMUM_MATCH_RULE_LENGTH
   1503  * bytes.
   1504  *
   1505  * Both of these maximums are much higher than you're likely to need,
   1506  * they only exist because the D-Bus bus daemon has fixed limits on
   1507  * all resource usage.
