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. To find out whether file descriptor passing is available after negotiation use sd_bus_can_send3 and pass SD_BUS_TYPE_UNIX_FD. 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. Note that when bus activation is used it is highly recommended to set the setting in the .busname unit file to the same setting as negotiated by the program ultimately activated. By default file descriptor passing is enabled for both. sd_bus_negotiate_timestamps() 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. If this is disabled, sd_bus_message_get_monotonic_usec3, sd_bus_message_get_realtime_usec3, sd_bus_message_get_seqno3 fail with -ENODATA on incoming messages. Note that not all transports support timestamping of messages. On local transports the timestamping is applied by the kernel and cannot be manipulated by userspace. sd_bus_negotiate_creds() controls whether implicit sender credentials shall be attached automatically to all incoming messages. Takes a bus object and a bit mask value, which controls which credential parameters are attached. If this is not used, sd_bus_message_get_creds3 fails with -ENODATA on incoming messages. Note that not all transports support attaching sender credentials to messages, or do not support all types of sender credential parameters. On local transports the sender credentials are attached by the kernel and cannot be manipulated by userspace. By default no sender credentials are attached. These functions may be called only before the connection has been started with sd_bus_start3. Return Value On success, these functions returns 0 or a positive integer. On failure, it returns a negative errno-style error code. Errors Returned errors may indicate the following problems: -EPERM The bus connection has already been started. Notes sd_bus_negotiate_fs() and the other functions described here are available as a shared library, which can be compiled and linked to with the libsystemd pkg-config1 file.
