+
+ <para><function>sd_session_is_active()</function> may be used to
+ determine whether the session identified by the specified session
+ identifier is currently active (i.e. currently in the foreground
+ and available for user input) or not.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_session_is_remote()</function> may be used to
+ determine whether the session identified by the specified session
+ identifier is a remote session (i.e. its remote host is known) or
+ not.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_session_get_state()</function> may be used to
+ determine the state of the session identified by the specified
+ session identifier. The following states are currently known:
+ <literal>online</literal> (session logged in, but session not
+ active, i.e. not in the foreground), <literal>active</literal>
+ (session logged in and active, i.e. in the foreground),
+ <literal>closing</literal> (session nominally logged out, but some
+ processes belonging to it are still around). In the future
+ additional states might be defined, client code should be written
+ to be robust in regards to additional state strings being
+ returned. This function is a more generic version of
+ <function>sd_session_is_active()</function>. The returned string
+ needs to be freed with the libc
+ <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ call after use.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_session_get_uid()</function> may be used to
+ determine the user identifier of the Unix user the session
+ identified by the specified session identifier belongs to.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_session_get_seat()</function> may be used to
+ determine the seat identifier of the seat the session identified
+ by the specified session identifier belongs to. Note that not all
+ sessions are attached to a seat, this call will fail for them. The
+ returned string needs to be freed with the libc
+ <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ call after use.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_session_get_service()</function> may be used to
+ determine the name of the service (as passed during PAM session
+ setup) that registered the session identified by the specified
+ session identifier. The returned string needs to be freed with the
+ libc
+ <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ call after use.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_session_get_type()</function> may be used to
+ determine the type of the session identified by the specified
+ session identifier. The returned string is one of
+ <literal>x11</literal>, <literal>wayland</literal>,
+ <literal>tty</literal>, <literal>mir</literal> or
+ <literal>unspecified</literal> and needs to be freed with the libc
+ <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ call after use.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_session_get_class()</function> may be used to
+ determine the class of the session identified by the specified
+ session identifier. The returned string is one of
+ <literal>user</literal>, <literal>greeter</literal>,
+ <literal>lock-screen</literal>, or <literal>background</literal>
+ and needs to be freed with the libc
+ <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ call after use.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_session_get_desktop()</function> may be used to
+ determine the brand of the desktop running on the session
+ identified by the specified session identifier. This field can be
+ set freely by desktop environments and does not follow any special
+ formatting. However, desktops are strongly recommended to use the
+ same identifiers and capitalization as for
+ <varname>$XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP</varname>, as defined by the <ulink
+ url="http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/">Desktop
+ Entry Specification</ulink>. The returned string needs to be freed
+ with the libc
+ <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ call after use.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_session_get_display()</function> may be used to
+ determine the X11 display of the session identified by the
+ specified session identifier. The returned string needs to be
+ freed with the libc
+ <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ call after use.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_session_get_remote_host()</function> may be
+ used to determine the remote hostname of the session identified by
+ the specified session identifier. The returned string needs to be
+ freed with the libc
+ <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ call after use.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_session_get_remote_user()</function> may be
+ used to determine the remote username of the session identified by
+ the specified session identifier. The returned string needs to be
+ freed with the libc
+ <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ call after use. Note that this value is rarely known to the
+ system, and even then should not be relied on.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_session_get_tty()</function> may be used to
+ determine the TTY device of the session identified by the
+ specified session identifier. The returned string needs to be
+ freed with the libc
+ <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ call after use.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_session_get_vt()</function> may be used to
+ determine the VT number of the session identified by the specified
+ session identifier. This function will return an error if the seat
+ does not support VTs.</para>
+
+ <para>If the <varname>session</varname> parameter of any of these
+ functions is passed as <constant>NULL</constant>, the operation is
+ executed for the session the calling process is a member of, if
+ there is any.</para>

+ <title>Return Value</title>
+
+ <para>If the test succeeds,
+ <function>sd_session_is_active()</function> and
+ <function>sd_session_is_remote()</function> return a
+ positive integer; if it fails, 0. On success,
+ <function>sd_session_get_state()</function>,

+ <function>sd_session_get_remote_user()</function>,
+ <function>sd_session_get_remote_host()</function> and
+ <function>sd_session_get_tty()</function> return 0 or
