Subject: [GIT PULL] kdbus updates for Greg
Hi Greg
Big set of updates for kdbus. I picked up all remaining cleanups and
fixes from the ML and added my performance rework. Features are
described below. All tested for several weeks as part of the
out-of-tree repo.
Thanks
David

kdbus: allow match rules on msg->dst_id (2015-07-06 18:15:21 +0200)
----------------------------------------------------------------
kdbus updates for Greg
* Drop unused features. This includes KDBUS_MSG_MAX_ITEMS, required attach
flags on buses and filtering oneself on broadcasts. Those were all unused
and I haven't seen any code using them now. As there is no need for them,
drop support for them.
We do _not_ break ABI, so old code still works. But we lack support for
those features now. If anything turns up, we might have to revert these.
But I really doubt that.
* Namespaces are now pinned on kdbus_conn. This was triggered by a discussion
with Eric regarding UDS on LKML:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg329322.html
We now follow the suggestion of Eric and pin namespaces. See the commit
message of c2bc012ac7da4 for details.
* Full rewrite of the message importer (parsing user-passed message and
prep'ing it before copying into the target pool). This was done to reduce
the number of calls into shmem, as those showed up a lot on benchmarks.
This rewrite makes up most of this PR and reduces overhead of message
transactions by roughly 40%. More optimizations are underway.
* We now support MATCH rules on the destination ID. This is supported by dbus1
but we never really needed it. But as it turns out, the bus-proxy now needs
it to support unicast-signal-compatibility with dbus1.
* We now extended the metadata retrieval to support the discussed /proc-style
access restrictions. This basically makes sure that we only transmit
metadata that was explicitly allowed by the sender, or which the receiver
has _actual_ access to via procfs of its own pid-namespace.
* Miscellaneous fixes and cleanups (from mailing-list and myself).
