See xd_add_watch. xd_find_watch_fd returns the file descriptor
reponsible for a given D-Bus connection (this is a bus like the system
bus, the session bus, or a private bus). This file descriptor is added
to Emacs via add_write_fd and add_read_fd, using the callback
xd_read_queued_messages. So it might look like a subprocess ...

Best regards, Michael.
