Instead, all communication and synchronisation is managed -using System V (XSI) semaphores and System V (XSI) shared memory. -.PP -The command \fBbus create\fP can be used to create new buses. By -convention, buses should be stored in \fI$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/bus\fP, this is -what \fBbus create\fP does if no pathname is given. The pathname of the -bus should be tracked using \fIBUS_X\fP, where \fIX\fP is replaced with -either: -.TP -.B GENERIC -For the bus used in generic cases. That is all but the cases of the -buses listed below. -.TP -.B AUDIO -For the bus used in with the audio subsystem is involved. -.TP -.B VIDEO -For the bus used in with the video subsystem is involved. -.TP -.B INPUT -For the bus used in with the input subsystem is involved. -.TP -.B FILES -For the bus used in with the storage subsystem is involved. -.PP -Messages broadcasted on a bus cannot be longer than 2047 bytes, -excluding NULL termination. Message should be encoded in UTF-8, -and most not contain the NULL character. -.PP -Broadcasted message should start with the process ID, or 0 if ephemeral, -whence the message originated, followed by a single regular space. -.SH SEE ALSO -.BR bus (1), -.BR libbus (7), -.BR semop (2), -.BR shmop (2) -.SH AUTHORS -Principal author, Mattias Andrée.
