It takes four arguments: - the journal context object, a string with the field - name to request, plus a pair of pointers to - pointer/size variables where the data object and its - size shall be stored in. The field name should be an - entry field name. Well-known field names are listed in - <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.journal-fields</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>. The - returned data is in a read-only memory map and is only - valid until the next invocation of - <function>sd_journal_get_data()</function> or - <function>sd_journal_enumerate_data()</function>, or - the read pointer is altered.
