<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_session_is_active()</function> may
be used to determine whether the session identified by
the specified session identifier is currently active
(i.e. currently in the foreground and available for
user input) or not.</para>
<para><function>sd_session_get_uid()</function> may be
used to determine the user identifier of the Unix user the session
identified by the specified session identifier belongs
to.</para>
<para><function>sd_session_get_seat()</function> may
be used to determine the seat identifier of the seat
the session identified by the specified session
identifier belongs to. Note that not all sessions are
attached to a seat, this call will fail for them. The
returned string needs to be freed with the libc
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
call after use.</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<title>Return Value</title>
<para>If the test succeeds
<function>sd_session_is_active()</function> returns a
positive integer, if it fails 0. On success
<function>sd_session_get_uid()</function> and
<function>sd_session_get_seat()</function> return 0 or
a positive integer. On failure, these calls return a
negative errno-style error code.</para>
</refsect1>

<title>Notes</title>
<para>The <function>sd_session_is_active()</function>,
<function>sd_session_get_uid()</function>, and
<function>sd_session_get_seat()</function> interfaces
are available as shared library, which can be compiled
and linked to with the
<literal>libsystemd-login</literal>
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>pkg-config</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
file.</para>
