Logically, this is better, because we're describing a subset of possible return values. Visually this also looks quite good because groff renders refsect2 much less prominently. Also rewrap things, add <constant> in various places, fix some typos.

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_uid_get_state()</function> may be used to
|
|
determine the login state of a specific Unix user identifier. The
|
|
following states are currently known: <literal>offline</literal>
|
|
(user not logged in at all), <literal>lingering</literal> (user
|
|
not logged in, but some user services running),
|
|
<literal>online</literal> (user logged in, but not active, i.e.
|
|
has no session in the foreground), <literal>active</literal> (user
|
|
logged in, and has at least one active session, i.e. one session
|
|
in the foreground), <literal>closing</literal> (user not logged
|
|
in, and not lingering, but some processes are still around). In
|
|
the future additional states might be defined, client code should
|
|
be written to be robust in regards to additional state strings
|
|
being returned. The returned string needs to be freed with the
|
|
libc
|
|
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
call after use.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_uid_is_on_seat()</function> may be used to
|
|
determine whether a specific user is logged in or active on a
|
|
specific seat. Accepts a Unix user identifier and a seat
|
|
identifier string as parameters. The
|
|
<parameter>require_active</parameter> parameter is a boolean
|
|
value. If non-zero (true), this function will test if the user is
|
|
active (i.e. has a session that is in the foreground and accepting
|
|
user input) on the specified seat, otherwise (false) only if the
|
|
user is logged in (and possibly inactive) on the specified
|
|
seat.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_uid_get_sessions()</function> may be used to
|
|
determine the current sessions of the specified user. Accepts a
|
|
Unix user identifier as parameter. The
|
|
<parameter>require_active</parameter> parameter controls whether
|
|
the returned list shall consist of only those sessions where the
|
|
user is currently active (> 0), where the user is currently
|
|
online but possibly inactive (= 0), or logged in at all but
|
|
possibly closing the session (< 0). The call returns a
|
|
<constant>NULL</constant> terminated string array of session
|
|
identifiers in <parameter>sessions</parameter> which needs to be
|
|
freed by the caller with the libc
|
|
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
call after use, including all the strings referenced. If the
|
|
string array parameter is passed as <constant>NULL</constant>, the
|
|
array will not be filled in, but the return code still indicates
|
|
the number of current sessions. Note that instead of an empty
|
|
array <constant>NULL</constant> may be returned and should be
|
|
considered equivalent to an empty array.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Similarly, <function>sd_uid_get_seats()</function> may be
|
|
used to determine the list of seats on which the user currently
|
|
has sessions. Similar semantics apply, however note that the user
|
|
may have multiple sessions on the same seat as well as sessions
|
|
with no attached seat and hence the number of entries in the
|
|
returned array may differ from the one returned by
|
|
<function>sd_uid_get_sessions()</function>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_uid_get_display()</function> returns the name
|
|
of the "primary" session of a user. If the user has graphical
|
|
sessions, it will be the oldest graphical session. Otherwise, it
|
|
will be the oldest open session.</para>

|
<title>Return Value</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>On success, <function>sd_uid_get_state()</function> returns 0 or a positive integer. If the test
|
|
succeeds, <function>sd_uid_is_on_seat()</function> returns a positive integer; if it fails, 0.
|
|
<function>sd_uid_get_sessions()</function> and <function>sd_uid_get_seats()</function> return the number
|
|
of entries in the returned arrays. <function>sd_uid_get_display()</function> returns a non-negative code
|
|
on success. On failure, these calls return a negative errno-style error code.</para>
