+ <title>Description</title>
+
+ <para><function>sd_event_add_signal()</function> adds a new UNIX
+ process signal event source to an event loop. The event loop
+ object is specified in the <parameter>event</parameter> parameter,
+ and the event source object is returned in the
+ <parameter>source</parameter> parameter. The
+ <parameter>signal</parameter> parameter specifies the numeric
+ signal to be handled (see <citerefentry
+ project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>signal</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>).
+ The <parameter>handler</parameter> parameter must reference a
+ function to call when the signal is received or be
+ <constant>NULL</constant>. The handler function will be passed
+ the <parameter>userdata</parameter> pointer, which may be chosen
+ freely by the caller. The handler also receives a pointer to a
+ <structname>signalfd_siginfo</structname> structure containing
+ information about the received signal. See <citerefentry
+ project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>signalfd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ for further information.</para>
+
+ <para>Only a single handler may be installed for a specific
+ signal. The signal will be unblocked by this call, and must be
+ blocked before this function is called in all threads (using
+ <citerefentry
+ project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>sigprocmask</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>). If
+ the handler is not specified (<parameter>handler</parameter> is
+ <constant>NULL</constant>), a default handler which causes the
+ program to exit cleanly will be used.</para>
+
+ <para>By default, the event source is enabled permanently
+ (<constant>SD_EVENT_ON</constant>), but this may be changed with
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_source_set_enabled</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
+ If the handler function returns a negative error code, it will be
+ disabled after the invocation, even if the
+ <constant>SD_EVENT_ON</constant> mode was requested before.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>To destroy an event source object use
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_source_unref</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
+ but note that the event source is only removed from the event loop
+ when all references to the event source are dropped. To make sure
+ an event source does not fire anymore, even if it is still referenced,
+ disable the event source using
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_source_set_enabled</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ with <constant>SD_EVENT_OFF</constant>.</para>
+
+ <para>If the second parameter of
+ <function>sd_event_add_signal()</function> is
+ <constant>NULL</constant> no reference to the event source object
+ is returned. In this case the event source is considered
+ "floating", and will be destroyed implicitly when the event loop
+ itself is destroyed.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_event_source_get_signal()</function> returns
+ the configured signal number of an event source created previously
+ with <function>sd_event_add_signal()</function>. It takes the
+ event source object as the <parameter>source</parameter>
+ parameter.</para>
+ </refsect1>
+
+ <refsect1>
+ <title>Return Value</title>
+
+ <para>On success, these functions return 0 or a positive
+ integer. On failure, they return a negative errno-style error
+ code.</para>
