<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_machine_get_class()</function> may be used to
determine the class of a locally running virtual machine or
container that is registered with
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-machined.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
The string returned is either <literal>vm</literal> or
<literal>container</literal>. 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_machine_get_ifindices()</function> may be used
to determine the numeric indices of the network interfaces on the
host that are pointing towards the specified locally running
virtual machine or container that is registered with
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-machined.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
The returned array needs to be freed with the libc <citerefentry
project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
call after use.</para>
</refsect1>

<title>Return Value</title>
<para>On success, these calls return 0 or a positive integer. On
failure, these calls return a negative errno-style error
code.</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<title>Errors</title>
<para>Returned errors may indicate the following problems:</para>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term><constant>-ENXIO</constant></term>
<listitem><para>The specified machine does not exist or is currently not running.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><constant>-EINVAL</constant></term>
<listitem><para>An input parameter was invalid (out of range,
or NULL, where that is not accepted).</para></listitem>

<term><constant>-ENOMEM</constant></term>
<listitem><para>Memory allocation failed.</para></listitem>

<title>Notes</title>
<para>The <function>sd_machine_get_class()</function> and
<function>sd_machine_get_ifindices()</function> interfaces are
available as a shared library, which can be compiled and linked to
with the
<constant>libsystemd</constant> <citerefentry project='die-net'><refentrytitle>pkg-config</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
