- <title>Description</title>
-
- <para><function>sd_bus_negotiate_fds()</function> controls whether
- file descriptor passing shall be negotiated for the specified bus
- connection. It takes a bus object and a boolean, which, when true,
- enables file descriptor passing, and, when false, disables
- it. Note that not all transports and servers support file
- descriptor passing. In particular, networked transports generally
- do not support file descriptor passing. To find out whether file
- descriptor passing is available after negotiation, use
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_can_send</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- and pass <constant>SD_BUS_TYPE_UNIX_FD</constant>. Note that file
- descriptor passing is always enabled for both sending and
- receiving or for neither, but never only in one direction. By
- default, file descriptor passing is negotiated for all
- connections.</para>
-
- <para>Note that when bus activation is used, it is highly
- recommended to set the <option>AcceptFileDescriptors=</option>
- setting in the <filename>.busname</filename> unit file to the same
- setting as negotiated by the program ultimately activated. By
- default, file descriptor passing is enabled for both.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_bus_negotiate_timestamp()</function> controls whether implicit sender
- timestamps shall be attached automatically to all incoming messages. Takes a bus object and a
- boolean, which, when true, enables timestamping, and, when false, disables it. Use
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_message_get_monotonic_usec</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_message_get_realtime_usec</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_message_get_seqnum</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- to query the timestamps of incoming messages. If negotiation is disabled or not supported, these
- calls will fail with <constant>-ENODATA</constant>. Note that currently no transports support
- timestamping of messages. By default, message timestamping is not negotiated for
- connections.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_bus_negotiate_creds()</function> controls whether and which implicit sender
- credentials shall be attached automatically to all incoming messages. Takes a bus object and a
- boolean indicating whether to enable or disable the credential parts encoded in the bit mask
- value argument. Note that not all transports support attaching sender credentials to messages,
- or do not support all types of sender credential parameters, or might suppress them under
- certain circumstances for individual messages. Specifically, dbus1 only supports
- <constant>SD_BUS_CREDS_UNIQUE_NAME</constant>. The sender credentials are suitable for
- authorization decisions. By default, only <constant>SD_BUS_CREDS_WELL_KNOWN_NAMES</constant> and
- <constant>SD_BUS_CREDS_UNIQUE_NAME</constant> are enabled. In fact, these two credential fields
- are always sent along and cannot be turned off.</para>
-
- <para>The <function>sd_bus_negotiate_fds()</function> function may
- be called only before the connection has been started with
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_start</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. Both
- <function>sd_bus_negotiate_timestamp()</function> and
- <function>sd_bus_negotiate_creds()</function> may also be called
- after a connection has been set up. Note that, when operating on a
- connection that is shared between multiple components of the same
- program (for example via
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_default</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>),
- it is highly recommended to only enable additional per message
- metadata fields, but never disable them again, in order not to
- disable functionality needed by other components.</para>

- <title>Return Value</title>
-
- <para>On success, these functions return 0 or a
- positive integer. On failure, they return a negative errno-style

- <title>Errors</title>
