91 | <title>Description</title> | |
92 | ||
93 | <para><function>sd_seat_get_active()</function> may be used to | |
94 | determine which session is currently active on a seat, if there is | |
95 | any. Returns the session identifier and the user identifier of the | |
96 | Unix user the session is belonging to. Either the session or the | |
97 | user identifier parameter can be passed <constant>NULL</constant>, | |
98 | in case only one of the parameters shall be queried. The returned | |
99 | string needs to be freed with the libc | |
100 | <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> | |
101 | call after use.</para> | |
102 | ||
103 | <para><function>sd_seat_get_sessions()</function> may be used to | |
104 | determine all sessions on the specified seat. Returns two arrays, | |
105 | one (<constant>NULL</constant> terminated) with the session | |
106 | identifiers of the sessions and one with the user identifiers of | |
107 | the Unix users the sessions belong to. An additional parameter may | |
108 | be used to return the number of entries in the latter array. The | |
109 | two arrays and the latter parameter may be passed as | |
110 | <constant>NULL</constant> in case these values need not to be | |
111 | determined. The arrays and the strings referenced by them need to | |
112 | be freed with the libc | |
113 | <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> | |
114 | call after use. Note that instead of an empty array | |
115 | <constant>NULL</constant> may be returned and should be considered | |
116 | equivalent to an empty array.</para> | |
117 | ||
118 | <para><function>sd_seat_can_multi_session()</function> may be used | |
119 | to determine whether a specific seat is capable of multi-session, | |
120 | i.e. allows multiple login sessions in parallel (with only one | |
121 | being active at a time).</para> | |
122 | ||
123 | <para><function>sd_seat_can_tty()</function> may be used to | |
124 | determine whether a specific seat provides TTY functionality, i.e. | |
125 | is useful as a text console.</para> | |
126 | ||
127 | <para><function>sd_seat_can_graphical()</function> may be used to | |
128 | determine whether a specific seat provides graphics functionality, | |
129 | i.e. is useful as a graphics display.</para> | |
130 | ||
131 | <para>If the <varname>seat</varname> parameter of any of these | |
132 | functions is passed as <constant>NULL</constant>, the operation is | |
133 | executed for the seat of the session of the calling process, if | |
134 | there is any.</para> | |

138 | <title>Return Value</title> | |
139 | ||
140 | <para> On success, <function>sd_seat_get_active()</function> | |
141 | returns 0 or a positive integer. On success, | |
142 | <function>sd_seat_get_sessions()</function> returns the number of | |
143 | entries in the session identifier array. If the test succeeds, | |
144 | <function>sd_seat_can_multi_session</function>, | |
145 | <function>sd_seat_can_tty</function> and | |
146 | <function>sd_seat_can_graphical</function> return a positive | |
147 | integer, if it fails 0. On failure, these calls return a negative | |
148 | errno-style error code.</para> | |
