<title>Description</title>
<para>
<function>sd_bus_add_match()</function> adds a match rule used to dispatch
incoming messages. The syntax of the rule passed in
<parameter>match</parameter> is described in the
<ulink url="https://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-specification.html">D-Bus Specification</ulink>.
</para>
<para>
The message <parameter>m</parameter> passed to the callback is only
borrowed, that is, the callback should not call
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_message_unref</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
on it. If the callback wants to hold on to the message beyond the lifetime
of the callback, it needs to call
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_message_ref</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
to create a new reference.
</para>
<para>
If an error occurs during the callback invocation, the callback should
return a negative error number. If it wants other callbacks that match the
same rule to be called, it should return 0. Otherwise it should return a
positive integer.
</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<title>Return Value</title>
<para>
On success, <function>sd_bus_add_match()</function> returns 0 or a
positive integer. On failure, it returns a negative errno-style error
code.
</para>
