+ as implemented by the
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ init system.</para>
+
+ <para>See

+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_is_fifo</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ for more information about the functions
+ implemented. In addition to these functions a couple
+ of logging prefixes are defined as macros:</para>
+
+ <programlisting>#define SD_EMERG "&lt;0&gt;" /* system is unusable */
+#define SD_ALERT "&lt;1&gt;" /* action must be taken immediately */
+#define SD_CRIT "&lt;2&gt;" /* critical conditions */
+#define SD_ERR "&lt;3&gt;" /* error conditions */
+#define SD_WARNING "&lt;4&gt;" /* warning conditions */
+#define SD_NOTICE "&lt;5&gt;" /* normal but significant condition */
+#define SD_INFO "&lt;6&gt;" /* informational */
+#define SD_DEBUG "&lt;7&gt;" /* debug-level messages */</programlisting>
+
+ <para>These prefixes are intended to be used in
+ conjunction with STDERR-based logging as implemented
+ by systemd. If a systemd service definition file is
+ configured with <varname>StandardError=syslog</varname>
+ or <varname>StandardError=kmsg</varname> these
+ prefixes can be used to encode a log level in lines
+ printed. This is similar to the kernel
+ <function>printk()</function>-style logging. See
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>klogctl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ for more information.</para>
+
+ <para>The log levels are identical to
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>syslog</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>'s
+ log level system. To use these prefixes simply prefix
+ every line with one of these strings. A line that is
+ not prefixed will be logged at the default log level
+ SD_INFO.</para>
+
+ <example>
+ <title>Hello World</title>
+
+ <para>A daemon may log with the log level
+ NOTICE by issuing this call:</para>
+
+ <programlisting>fprintf(stderr, SD_NOTICE "Hello World!\n");</programlisting>
+ </example>

+ <para>These interfaces are provided by the reference
+ implementation of APIs for new-style daemons and
+ distributed with the systemd package. The algorithms
+ they implement are simple, and can easily be
+ reimplemented in daemons if it is important to support
+ this interface without using the reference
+ implementation. See the respective function man pages
+ for details.</para>

+ currently not available in a dynamic library.</para>

+ <para>The functions directly related to new-style
+ daemons become NOPs when -DDISABLE_SYSTEMD is set

+
+ <para><function>sd_listen_fds()</function> shall be
+ called by a daemon to check for file descriptors
+ passed by the init system as part of the socket-based
+ activation logic.</para>
+
+ <para>If the <parameter>unset_environment</parameter>
+ parameter is non-zero
+ <function>sd_listen_fds()</function> will unset the
+ <varname>$LISTEN_FDS</varname>/<varname>$LISTEN_PID</varname>
+ environment variables before returning (regardless
+ whether the function call itself succeeded or
+ not). Further calls to
+ <function>sd_listen_fds()</function> will then fail,
+ but the variables are no longer inherited by child
+ processes.</para>
+
+ <para>If a daemon receives more than one file
+ descriptor, they will be passed in the same order as
+ configured in the systemd socket definition
+ file. Nonetheless it is recommended to verify the
+ correct socket types before using them. To simplify
+ this checking the functions
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_is_fifo</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_is_socket</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,

+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_is_socket_unix</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ are provided. In order to maximize flexibility it is
+ recommened to make these checks as loose as possible
+ without allowing incorrect setups. i.e. often the
+ actual port number a socket is bound to matters little
+ for the service to work, hence it should not be
+ verified. On the other hand, whether a socket is a
+ datagram or stream socket matters a lot for the most
+ common program logics and should hence be
+ checked.</para>
+
+ <para>This function call will set the FD_CLOEXEC flag
+ for all passed file descriptors to avoid further
+ inheritance to children of the calling process.</para>
+ </refsect1>
+
+ <refsect1>
+ <title>Return Value</title>
+
+ <para>On failure, this call returns a negative
+ errno-style error code. If
+ <varname>$LISTEN_FDS</varname>/<varname>$LISTEN_PID</varname>
+ was not set or not correctly set for this daemon and
+ hence no file descriptors received 0 is
+ returned. Otherwise the number of file descriptors
+ passed is returned, the application may find them
+ starting with file descriptor SD_LISTEN_FDS_START,
+ i.e. file descriptor 3.</para>

+ <para>This function is provided by the reference
+ implementation of APIs for new-style daemons and
+ distributed with the systemd package. The algorithm it
+ implements is simple, and can easily be reimplemented
+ in daemons if it is important to support this
+ interface without using the reference
+ implementation.</para>
+
+ <para>Internally, this function checks whether the
+ <varname>$LISTEN_PID</varname> environment variable
+ equals the daemon PID. If not, it returns
+ immediately. Otherwise it parses the number passed in
+ the <varname>$LISTEN_FDS</varname> environment
+ variable, then sets the FD_CLOEXEC flag for the parsed
+ number of file descriptors starting from
+ SD_LISTEN_FDS_START. Finally it returns the parsed
+ number.</para>
