| <title>Description</title> |
| |
| <para><function>sd_seat_get_active()</function> may be used to |
| determine which session is currently active on a seat, if there is |
| any. Returns the session identifier and the user identifier of the |
| Unix user the session is belonging to. Either the session or the |
| user identifier parameter can be passed <constant>NULL</constant>, |
| in case only one of the parameters shall be queried. 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_seat_get_sessions()</function> may be used to |
| determine all sessions on the specified seat. Returns two arrays, |
| one (<constant>NULL</constant> terminated) with the session |
| identifiers of the sessions and one with the user identifiers of |
| the Unix users the sessions belong to. An additional parameter may |
| be used to return the number of entries in the latter array. The |
| two arrays and the latter parameter may be passed as |
| <constant>NULL</constant> in case these values need not to be |
| determined. The arrays and the strings referenced by them need to |
| be freed with the libc |
| <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> |
| call after use. Note that instead of an empty array |
| <constant>NULL</constant> may be returned and should be considered |
| equivalent to an empty array.</para> |
| |
| <para><function>sd_seat_can_multi_session()</function> may be used |
| to determine whether a specific seat is capable of multi-session, |
| i.e. allows multiple login sessions in parallel (with only one |
| being active at a time).</para> |
| |
| <para><function>sd_seat_can_tty()</function> may be used to |
| determine whether a specific seat provides TTY functionality, i.e. |
| is useful as a text console.</para> |
| |
| <para><function>sd_seat_can_graphical()</function> may be used to |
| determine whether a specific seat provides graphics functionality, |
| i.e. is useful as a graphics display.</para> |
| |
| <para>If the <varname>seat</varname> parameter of any of these |
| functions is passed as <constant>NULL</constant>, the operation is |
| executed for the seat of the session of the calling process, if |
| there is any.</para> |

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