<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_bus_set_method_call_timeout()</function> sets the default D-Bus method call
timeout of <parameter>bus</parameter> to <parameter>usec</parameter> microseconds.</para>
<para><function>sd_bus_get_method_call_timeout()</function> queries the default D-Bus method
call timeout of <parameter>bus</parameter>. If no method call timeout was set using
<function>sd_bus_set_method_call_timeout()</function>, the timeout is read from the
<varname>$SYSTEMD_BUS_TIMEOUT</varname> environment variable. If this environment variable is
unset or does not contain a valid timeout, the implementation falls back to a predefined method
call timeout of 25 seconds. Note that <varname>$SYSTEMD_BUS_TIMEOUT</varname> is read once and
cached so callers should not rely on being able to change the default method call timeout at
runtime by changing the value of <varname>$SYSTEMD_BUS_TIMEOUT</varname>. Instead, call
<function>sd_bus_set_method_call_timeout()</function> to change the default method call timeout.
