dbus-cleanup-sockets - clean up leftover sockets in a directory
SYNOPSIS
dbus-cleanup-sockets [DIRECTORY]
DESCRIPTION
The dbus-cleanup-sockets command cleans up unused D-Bus connection sockets. See http://www.freedesktop.org/software/dbus/ for more informa-
tion about the big picture.
If given no arguments, dbus-cleanup-sockets cleans up sockets in the standard default socket directory for the per-user-login-session mes-
sage bus; this is usually /tmp. Optionally, you can pass a different directory on the command line.
On Linux, this program is essentially useless, because D-Bus defaults to using "abstract sockets" that exist only in memory and don't have
a corresponding file in /tmp.
On most other flavors of UNIX, it's possible for the socket files to leak when programs using D-Bus exit abnormally or without closing
their D-Bus connections. Thus, it might be interesting to run dbus-cleanup-sockets in a cron job to mop up any leaked sockets. Or you can
just ignore the leaked sockets, they aren't really hurting anything, other than cluttering the output of "ls /tmp"

I'm trying to do some cleanup (write open files) when Linux shuts down. I thought the right method would be to trap SIGTERM and do the necessary processing. Here's my sample code:
#include <stdio.h> // for File I/O
#include <signal.h> // for signals
#include <unistd.h> // for sleep()

Hey guys,
Is it possible to have a worker thread send data out a TCP connection while another thread is waiting using using select() on that same connection?
If not, then what is the correct way to maintain a connection, react to incoming data, and send data over a TCP connection?
Thanks... (16 Replies)
