Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 3a54a15760 man: use same header for all files
The "include" files had type "book" for some raeason. I don't think this
is meaningful. Let's just use the same everywhere.

<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_watchdog_enabled()</function> may be called by
a service to detect whether the service manager expects regular
keep-alive watchdog notification events from it, and the timeout
after which the manager will act on the service if it did not get
such a notification.</para>
<para>If the <varname>$WATCHDOG_USEC</varname> environment
variable is set, and the <varname>$WATCHDOG_PID</varname> variable
is unset or set to the PID of the current process, the service
manager expects notifications from this process. The manager will
usually terminate a service when it does not get a notification
message within the specified time after startup and after each
previous message. It is recommended that a daemon sends a
keep-alive notification message to the service manager every half
of the time returned here. Notification messages may be sent with
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_notify</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
with a message string of <literal>WATCHDOG=1</literal>.</para>
<para>If the <parameter>unset_environment</parameter> parameter is
non-zero, <function>sd_watchdog_enabled()</function> will unset
the <varname>$WATCHDOG_USEC</varname> and
<varname>$WATCHDOG_PID</varname> environment variables before
returning (regardless of whether the function call itself
succeeded or not). Those variables are no longer inherited by
child processes. Further calls to
<function>sd_watchdog_enabled()</function> will also return with
zero.</para>
<para>If the <parameter>usec</parameter> parameter is non-NULL,
<function>sd_watchdog_enabled()</function> will write the timeout
in µs for the watchdog logic to it.</para>
<para>To enable service supervision with the watchdog logic, use
<varname>WatchdogSec=</varname> in service files. See
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for details.</para>
<para>Use
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_set_watchdog</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
to enable automatic watchdog support in
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd-event</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>-based event loops.</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<title>Return Value</title>
<para>On failure, this call returns a negative errno-style error
code. If the service manager expects watchdog keep-alive
notification messages to be sent, &gt; 0 is returned, otherwise 0
is returned. Only if the return value is &gt; 0, the
<parameter>usec</parameter> parameter is valid after the
call.</para>

<title>Notes</title>
<xi:include href="libsystemd-pkgconfig.xml" xpointer="pkgconfig-text"/>
<para>Internally, this function parses the
<varname>$WATCHDOG_PID</varname> and
<varname>$WATCHDOG_USEC</varname> environment variable. The call
will ignore these variables if <varname>$WATCHDOG_PID</varname>
does not contain the PID of the current process, under the
assumption that in that case, the variables were set for a
different process further up the process tree.</para>
