+    <title>Description</title>
+
+    <para><function>sd_event_run()</function> can be used to run one
+    iteration of the event loop of libsystemd. This function waits
+    until an event to process is available and dispatches a handler
+    for it. Parameter <parameter>timeout</parameter> specifices the
+    maximum time (in microseconds) to wait. <constant>(uint64_t)
+    -1</constant> may be used to specify an infinite timeout.</para>
+
+    <para><function>sd_event_loop</function> runs
+    <function>sd_event_wait</function> in a loop with a timeout of
+    infinity. This makes it suitable for the main event loop of a
+    program.</para>
+
+    <para>The event loop object <parameter>event</parameter> is
+    created with
+    <function>sd_event_new</function>.
+    Events to wait for and their handlers can be registered with
+    <function>sd_event_add_time</function>,
+    <function>sd_event_add_child</function>,
+    <function>sd_event_add_signal</function>,
+    <function>sd_event_add_defer</function>,
+    <function>sd_event_add_exit</function>,
+    and
+    <function>sd_event_add_post</function>.
+    </para>
+
+    <para>For more fine-grained control,
+    <function>sd_event_prepare</function>,
+    <function>sd_event_wait</function>, and
+    <function>sd_event_dispatch</function> may be used. Along with
+    <function>sd_event_get_fd</function>, those functions make it
+    possible to integrate the libsystemd loop inside of another event
+    loop.</para>

+    <title>Return Value</title>
+
