<title>Description</title>
<para>The <structname>sd_bus_error</structname> structure carries
- information for a <filename>sd-bus</filename> error. The
- functions described below can be used to set and query fields in
- this structure. The <structfield>name</structfield> field contains a
- short identifier of an error. It should follow the rules for error
- names described in the D-Bus specification, subsection <ulink
+ information about a D-Bus error condition. The functions described
+ below may be used to set and query fields in this structure. The
+ <structfield>name</structfield> field contains a short identifier
+ of an error. It should follow the rules for error names described
+ in the D-Bus specification, subsection <ulink
url="http://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-specification.html#message-protocol-names">Valid
- Names</ulink>. The <structfield>message</structfield> is a human
- readable string describing the details. When no longer necessary,
- resources held by this structure should be destroyed with
- <function>sd_bus_error_free</function>.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_bus_error_set</function> will return an
- errno-like negative value returned based on parameter
- <parameter>name</parameter> (see
- <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>errno</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>).
- Various well-known D-Bus errors are converted to specific values,
- and the remaining ones to <constant>-ENXIO</constant>. Well-known
- D-Bus error names are available as constants
- <constant>SD_BUS_ERROR_FAILED</constant>, etc., listed above. If
+ Names</ulink>. A number of common, standardized error names are
+ described in
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd-bus-errors</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
+ but additional domain-specific errors may be defined by
+ applications. The <structfield>message</structfield> field usually
+ contains a human readable string describing the details, but might
+ be NULL. An unset <structname>sd_bus_error</structname> structure
+ should have both fields initialized to NULL. Set an error
+ structure to <constant>SD_BUS_ERROR_NULL</constant> in order to
+ reset both fields to NULL. When no longer necessary, resources
+ held by the <structname>sd_bus_error</structname>structure should
+ be destroyed with <function>sd_bus_error_free()</function>.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_bus_error_set()</function> sets an error
+ structure to the specified name and message strings. The strings
+ will be copied into internal, newly allocated memory. It is
+ essential to free the error structure again when it is not
+ required anymore (see above). The function will return an
+ <varname>errno</varname>-like negative value (see <citerefentry
+ project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>errno</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>)
+ determined from the specified error name. Various well-known
+ D-Bus errors are converted to well-known <varname>errno</varname>
+ counterparts, and the other ones to <constant>-EIO</constant>. See
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd-bus-errors</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ for a list of well-known error names. Additional error mappings
+ may be defined with
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_error_add_map</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. If
+ <parameter>e</parameter> is NULL no error structure is initialized
+ but the error is still converted into an
+ <varname>errno</varname>-style error. If
<parameter>name</parameter> is <constant>NULL</constant>, it is
assumed that no error occurred, and 0 is returned. This means that
this function may be conveniently used in a
- <function>return</function> statement.</para>
-
- <para>If <parameter>e</parameter> is not
- <constant>NULL</constant>, <structfield>name</structfield> and
- <structfield>message</structfield> in the
- <structname>sd_bus_error</structname> structure
- <parameter>e</parameter> points at will be filled in. As described above,

+ <title>Description</title>
+
+ <para>The <function>sd_bus_error_add_map()</function> call may be
+ used to register additional mappings for converting D-Bus errors
+ to Linux <varname>errno</varname>-style errors. The mappings
+ defined with this call are consulted by calls such as
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_error_set</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ or
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_error_get_errno</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. By
+ default a number of generic, standardized mappings are known, as
+ documented in
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd-bus-errors</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. Use
+ this call to add further, application-specific mappings.</para>
+
+ <para>The function takes a pointer to an array of
+ <structname>sd_bus_error_map</structname> structures. A reference
+ to the specified array is added to the lookup tables for error
+ mappings. Note that the structure is not copied, it is hence
+ essential that the array stays available and constant during the
+ entire remaining runtime of the process.</para>
+
+ <para>The mapping array should be put together with a series of
+ <constant>SD_BUS_ERROR_MAP()</constant> macro invocations, that
+ take a literal name string and a (positive)
+ <varname>errno</varname>-style error number. The last entry of the
+ array should be an invocation of the
+ <constant>SD_BUS_ERROR_MAP_END</constant> macro. The array should not be
+ put together without use of these two macros.</para>
+
+ <para>Note that the call is idempotent: it is safe to invoke it
+ multiple times with the parameter, which will only add the passed
+ mapping array once.</para>
+
+ <para>Note that the memory allocated by this call is not intended
+ to be freed during the lifetime of the process. It should not be
+ freed explicitly.</para>
+ </refsect1>
+
+ <refsect1>
+ <title>Return Value</title>
+
+ <para><function>sd_bus_error_add_map()</function> returns a
+ positive value when the new array was added to the lookup
+ tables. It returns zero when the same array was already added
+ before. On error, a negative <varname>errno</varname>-style error
+ code is returned. See below for known error codes.</para>
