Instead it will proceed with executing only event sources registered with <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_add_exit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> in the order defined by their priority. After all exit event sources have been dispatched the event loop is terminated.</para> <para>If <function>sd_event_exit()</function> is invoked a second time while the event loop is still processing exit event sources, the exit code stored in the event loop object is updated, but otherwise no further operation is executed.</para> <para><function>sd_event_get_exit_code()</function> may be used to query the exit code passed into <function>sd_event_exit()</function> earlier.</para> <para>While the full positive and negative integer ranges may be used for the exit code, care should be taken not pick exit codes that conflict with regular exit codes returned by <function>sd_event_loop()</function>, if these exit codes shall be distinguishable.</para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>Return Value</title> <para>On success, <function>sd_event_exit()</function> and <function>sd_event_get_exit_code()</function> return 0 or a positive integer.
