                <title>Return Value</title>

                <para>On failure, this call returns a negative
                errno-style error code. If the system was booted up
                with systemd as init system this call returns a
                positive return value, zero otherwise.</para>

                <title>Notes</title>

                <para>This function is provided by the reference
                implementation of APIs for new-style daemons and
                distributed with the systemd package. The algorithm it
                implements is simple, and can easily be reimplemented
                in daemons if it is important to support this
                interface without using the reference
                implementation.</para>

                <para>Internally, this function checks whether the
                <filename>/cgroup/systemd</filename> virtual file
                system is mounted, by comparing the st_dev value of
                the <function>stat()</function> data of
                <filename>/cgroup</filename> and
                <filename>/cgroup/systemd</filename>.</para>

                <para>For details about the algorithm check the
                liberally licensed reference implementation sources:
                <ulink url="http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/tree/src/sd-daemon.c"/>
                resp. <ulink
                url="http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/tree/src/sd-daemon.h"/></para>

                <para><function>sd_booted()</function> is implemented
                in the reference implementation's drop-in
                <filename>sd-daemon.c</filename> and
                <filename>sd-daemon.h</filename> files. It is
                recommended that applications consuming these APIs
                copy the implementation into their source tree. For
                more details about the reference implementation see
                <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_daemon</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry></para>

                <para>If -DDISABLE_SYSTEMD is set during compilation
                this function will always return 0 and otherwise
                become a NOP.</para>
