In particular, the pid, uid, and guid of the remote is shown. My approach would be to log this to some file, and then see which fds remain, and then look up this fd in the log. The recvmsg calls contain the serialized dbus calls, a bit messy but understandable. E.g. 'systemctl show systemd-udevd' gives something like this: recvmsg(20, {msg_name=NULL, msg_namelen=0, msg_iov=[{iov_base="l\1\4\1\5\0\0\0\1\0\0\0\257\0\0\0\1\1o\08\0\0\0", iov_len=24}], msg_iovlen=1, msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC}, MSG_DONTWAIT|MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC) = 24 recvmsg(20, {msg_name=NULL, msg_namelen=0, msg_iov=[{iov_base="/org/freedesktop/systemd1/unit/systemd_2dudevd_2eservice\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\3\1s\0\6\0\0\0GetAll\0\0\2\1s\0\37\0\0\0org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties\0\6\1s\0\30\0\0\0org.freedesktop.systemd1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\10\1g\0\1s\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", ...
