- <title>Description</title>
-
- <para><function>sd_bus_track_add_name()</function> adds a peer to track to a bus peer tracking object. The first
- argument should refer to a bus peer tracking object created with
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_track_new</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>, the second
- name should refer to a D-Bus peer name to track, either in unique or well-known service format. If the name is not
- tracked yet it will be added to the list of names to track. If it already is being tracked and non-recursive mode
- is enabled, no operation is executed by this call. If recursive mode is enabled a per-name counter is increased by
- one each time this call is invoked, and <function>sd_bus_track_remove_name()</function> has to be called as many
- times as <function>sd_bus_track_add_name()</function> was invoked before in order to stop tracking of the name. Use
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_track_set_recursive</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> to
- switch from the default non-recursive mode to recursive mode, or back. Note that the specified name is tracked as
- it is, well-known names are not resolved to unique names by this call. Note that multiple bus peer tracking objects
- may track the same name.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_bus_track_remove_name()</function> undoes the effect of
- <function>sd_bus_track_add_name()</function> and removes a bus peer name from the list of peers to watch. Depending
- on whether non-recursive or recursive mode is enabled for the bus peer tracking object this call will either remove
- the name fully from the tracking object, or will simply decrement the per-name counter by one, removing the name
- only when the counter reaches zero (see above). Note that a bus peer disconnecting from the bus will implicitly
- remove its names fully from the bus peer tracking object, regardless of the current per-name counter.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_bus_track_add_sender()</function> and <function>sd_bus_track_remove_sender()</function> are
- similar to <function>sd_bus_track_add_name()</function> and <function>sd_bus_track_remove_name()</function> but
- take a bus message as argument. The sender of this bus message is determined and added to/removed from the bus peer
- tracking object. As messages always originate from unique names, and never from well-known names this means that
- this call will effectively only add unique names to the bus peer tracking object.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_bus_track_count()</function> returns the number of names currently being tracked by the
- specified bus peer tracking object. Note that this function always returns the actual number of names tracked, and
- hence if <function>sd_bus_track_add_name()</function> has been invoked multiple times for the same name it is only
- counted as one, regardless if recursive mode is used or not.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_bus_track_count_name()</function> returns the current per-name counter for the specified
- name. If non-recursive mode is used this returns either 1 or 0, depending on whether the specified name has been
- added to the tracking object before, or not. If recursive mode has been enabled, values larger than 1 may be
- returned too, in case <function>sd_bus_track_add_name()</function> has been called multiple times for the same
- name.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_bus_track_count_sender()</function> is similar to
- <function>sd_bus_track_count_name()</function>, but takes a bus message object and returns the per-name counter
- matching the sender of the message.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_bus_track_contains()</function> may be used to determine whether the specified name has been
- added at least once to the specified bus peer tracking object.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_bus_track_first()</function> and <function>sd_bus_track_next()</function> may be used to
- enumerate all names currently being tracked by the passed bus peer tracking
- object. <function>sd_bus_track_first()</function> returns the first entry in the object, and resets an internally
- maintained read index. Each subsequent invocation of <function>sd_bus_track_next()</function> returns the next name
- contained in the bus object. If the end is reached <constant>NULL</constant> is returned. If no names have been
- added to the object yet <function>sd_bus_track_first()</function> will return <constant>NULL</constant>
- immediately. The order in which names are returned is undefined; in particular which name is considered the first
- returned is not defined. If recursive mode is enabled and the same name has been added multiple times to the bus
- peer tracking object it is only returned once by this enumeration. If new names are added to or existing names
- removed from the bus peer tracking object while it is being enumerated the enumeration ends on the next invocation
- of <function>sd_bus_track_next()</function> as <constant>NULL</constant> is returned.</para>

- <title>Return Value</title>
-
- <para>On success, <function>sd_bus_track_add_name()</function> and <function>sd_bus_track_add_sender()</function>
- return 0 if the specified name has already been added to the bus peer tracking object before and positive if it
- hasn't. On failure, they return a negative errno-style error code.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_bus_track_remove_name()</function> and <function>sd_bus_track_remove_sender()</function> return
- positive if the specified name was previously tracked by the bus peer tracking object and has now been removed. In
- non-recursive mode, 0 is returned if the specified name was not being tracked yet. In recursive mode
- <constant>-EUNATCH</constant> is returned in this case. On failure, they return a negative errno-style error
- code.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_bus_track_count()</function> returns the number of names currently being tracked, or 0 on
- failure.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_bus_track_count_name()</function> and <function>sd_bus_track_count_sender()</function> return
- the current per-name counter for the specified name or the sender of the specified message. Zero is returned for
- names that are not being tracked yet, a positive value for names added at least once. Larger values than 1 are only
- returned in recursive mode. On failure, a negative errno-style error code is returned.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_bus_track_contains()</function> returns the passed name if it exists in the bus peer tracking
- object. On failure, and if the name has not been added yet <constant>NULL</constant> is returned.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_bus_track_first()</function> and <function>sd_bus_track_next()</function> return the first/next
- name contained in the bus peer tracking object, and <constant>NULL</constant> if the end of the enumeration is
- reached and on error.</para>
