But it we need broadcasting rather than anycasting, so we have a fast, simple and daemonless system for announcing events to all processes whom might be interested. +.SH FUTURE DIRECTION +Perhaps the ability to have groups and other permissions on bus, so they can be shared among users and be system-wide. Private and abstract buses might be interesting too. +.SH SEE ALSO +bus(1), bus(5), bus_create(3), bus_unlink(3), bus_open(3), bus_close(3), bus_read(3), bus_write(3) +.SH AUTHORS +See the LICENSE file for the authors. +.SH BUGS +Please report them. + |
