+ <title>Description</title>
+
+ <para><function>sd_event_new()</function> allocates a new event
+ loop object. The event loop object is returned in the
+ <parameter>event</parameter> parameter. After use drop
+ the returned reference with
+ <function>sd_event_unref()</function>. When the last reference is
+ dropped the event loop is freed.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_event_default()</function> acquires a reference
+ to the default event loop object of the calling thread, possibly
+ allocating a new object if no default event loop object has been
+ allocated yet for the thread. After use drop the returned
+ referened with <function>sd_event_unref()</function>. When the
+ last reference is dropped the event loop is freed. If this
+ function is called while the object returned from a previous call
+ from the same thread is still referenced, the same object is
+ returned again, but the reference is increased by one. It is
+ recommended to use this call instead of
+ <function>sd_event_new()</function> in order to share event loop
+ objects between various components that are dispatched in the same
+ thread. All threads either have no or one default event loops
+ associated, but never more.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_event_ref()</function> increases the reference
+ counter of the specified event loop object by one.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_event_unref()</function> decreases the
+ reference counter of the specified event loop object by one. If
+ the counter hits zero the event loop object is freed. Not that it
+ is freed regardless if it is the default event loop object of a
+ thread or not. This means that allocating an event loop with
+ <function>sd_event_default()</function>, then releasing it and
+ then acquiring a new one with
+ <function>sd_event_default()</function> will result in two
+ distinct objects. Note that in order to free an event loop object
+ all remaining event sources of the event loop also need to be
+ freed as they each keep a reference to it.</para>

+ <title>Return Value</title>
+
+ <para>On success, <function>sd_event_new()</function> and
+ <function>sd_event_default()</function> return 0 or a positive
+ integer. On failure, they return a negative errno-style error
+ code. <function>sd_event_ref()</function> always returns a pointer
+ to the event loop object passed
+ in. <function>sd_event_unref()</function> always returns
+ NULL.</para>
