- <title>Description</title>
-
- <para><function>sd_session_is_active()</function> may be used to
- determine whether the session identified by the specified session
- identifier is currently active (i.e. currently in the foreground
- and available for user input) or not.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_session_is_remote()</function> may be used to
- determine whether the session identified by the specified session
- identifier is a remote session (i.e. its remote host is known) or
- not.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_session_get_state()</function> may be used to
- determine the state of the session identified by the specified
- session identifier. The following states are currently known:
- <literal>online</literal> (session logged in, but session not
- active, i.e. not in the foreground), <literal>active</literal>
- (session logged in and active, i.e. in the foreground),
- <literal>closing</literal> (session nominally logged out, but some
- processes belonging to it are still around). In the future
- additional states might be defined, client code should be written
- to be robust in regards to additional state strings being
- returned. This function is a more generic version of
- <function>sd_session_is_active()</function>. 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_session_get_uid()</function> may be used to
- determine the user identifier of the Unix user the session
- identified by the specified session identifier belongs to.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_session_get_seat()</function> may be used to
- determine the seat identifier of the seat the session identified
- by the specified session identifier belongs to. Note that not all
- sessions are attached to a seat, this call will fail for them. 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_session_get_service()</function> may be used to
- determine the name of the service (as passed during PAM session
- setup) that registered the session identified by the specified
- session identifier. 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_session_get_type()</function> may be used to
- determine the type of the session identified by the specified
- session identifier. The returned string is one of
- <literal>x11</literal>, <literal>wayland</literal>,
- <literal>tty</literal>, <literal>mir</literal> or
- <literal>unspecified</literal> and 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_session_get_class()</function> may be used to
- determine the class of the session identified by the specified
- session identifier. The returned string is one of
- <literal>user</literal>, <literal>greeter</literal>,
- <literal>lock-screen</literal>, or <literal>background</literal>
- and 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_session_get_desktop()</function> may be used to
- determine the brand of the desktop running on the session
- identified by the specified session identifier. This field can be
- set freely by desktop environments and does not follow any special
- formatting. However, desktops are strongly recommended to use the
- same identifiers and capitalization as for
- <varname>$XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP</varname>, as defined by the <ulink
- url="http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/">Desktop
- Entry Specification</ulink>. 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_session_get_display()</function> may be used to
- determine the X11 display of the session identified by the
- specified session identifier. 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_session_get_remote_host()</function> may be
- used to determine the remote hostname of the session identified by
- the specified session identifier. 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_session_get_remote_user()</function> may be
- used to determine the remote username of the session identified by
- the specified session identifier. The returned string needs to be
- freed with the libc
- <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- call after use. Note that this value is rarely known to the
- system, and even then should not be relied on.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_session_get_tty()</function> may be used to
- determine the TTY device of the session identified by the
- specified session identifier. 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_session_get_vt()</function> may be used to
- determine the VT number of the session identified by the specified
- session identifier. This function will return an error if the seat
- does not support VTs.</para>
-
- <para>If the <varname>session</varname> parameter of any of these
- functions is passed as <constant>NULL</constant>, the operation is
- executed for the session the calling process is a member of, if
- there is any.</para>

- <title>Return Value</title>
-
- <para>If the test succeeds,
- <function>sd_session_is_active()</function> and
- <function>sd_session_is_remote()</function> return a
- positive integer; if it fails, 0. On success,
- <function>sd_session_get_state()</function>,
- <function>sd_session_get_uid()</function>,
- <function>sd_session_get_seat()</function>,
- <function>sd_session_get_service()</function>,
- <function>sd_session_get_type()</function>,
- <function>sd_session_get_class()</function>,
- <function>sd_session_get_display()</function>,
- <function>sd_session_get_remote_user()</function>,
- <function>sd_session_get_remote_host()</function> and
- <function>sd_session_get_tty()</function> return 0 or
- a positive integer. On failure, these calls return a
- negative errno-style error code.</para>
