An efficient device to device RPC framework using DBUS and KDBus

Due to rapid advancement of technology, embedded devices are evolving quickly and closing the gap between virtual and real work. Embedded devices should be able to use services and data offered by other embedded devices efficiently. This requires an efficient and scalable inter device communication framework which can be used to provide Internet of Things (IOT) ecosystem as well. In this paper we are proposing an efficient device to device communication framework by extending the DBus and KDBus Remote Procedure Call (RPC) mechanism. The proposed framework consists of two RPC interfaces: one is in user space for control and the other is in kernel space for data transport. User space RPC interface authenticates devices and gathers services information using DBus introspection feature to share it with other embedded devices. Kernel level RPC interface will be responsible for transferring and receiving payload with other embedded devices. Kernel RPC interface will use kernel socket to achieve better data throughput.
