[PATCH] kdbus: raise hard-coded limit of matches

From: David Herrmann
Date: Fri Sep 04 2015 - 05:02:59 EST


The current MATCH limit is far too low. We allow more bus-connections per
user than peers to install matches. Raise the limit to a reasonable
default of 4096. The current limit is exactly enough to run Gnome, but
can be easily exceeded by starting some additional service providers.
With the raised limit, we should be fine for the near future.

Some day, we might decide to make those limits dynamically configurable.
However, that needs some more benchmarking, until we can figure out
perfect defaults.
