- <title>Description</title>
-
- <para><function>sd_uid_get_state()</function> may be used to
- determine the login state of a specific Unix user identifier. The
- following states are currently known: <literal>offline</literal>
- (user not logged in at all), <literal>lingering</literal> (user
- not logged in, but some user services running),
- <literal>online</literal> (user logged in, but not active, i.e.
- has no session in the foreground), <literal>active</literal> (user
- logged in, and has at least one active session, i.e. one session
- in the foreground), <literal>closing</literal> (user not logged
- in, and not lingering, but some processes 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. 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_uid_is_on_seat()</function> may be used to
- determine whether a specific user is logged in or active on a
- specific seat. Accepts a Unix user identifier and a seat
- identifier string as parameters. The
- <parameter>require_active</parameter> parameter is a boolean
- value. If non-zero (true), this function will test if the user is
- active (i.e. has a session that is in the foreground and accepting
- user input) on the specified seat, otherwise (false) only if the
- user is logged in (and possibly inactive) on the specified
- seat.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_uid_get_sessions()</function> may be used to
- determine the current sessions of the specified user. Accepts a
- Unix user identifier as parameter. The
- <parameter>require_active</parameter> parameter controls whether
- the returned list shall consist of only those sessions where the
- user is currently active (&gt; 0), where the user is currently
- online but possibly inactive (= 0), or logged in at all but
- possibly closing the session (&lt; 0). The call returns a
- <constant>NULL</constant> terminated string array of session
- identifiers in <parameter>sessions</parameter> which needs to be
- freed by the caller with the libc
- <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- call after use, including all the strings referenced. If the
- string array parameter is passed as <constant>NULL</constant>, the
- array will not be filled in, but the return code still indicates
- the number of current sessions. Note that instead of an empty
- array <constant>NULL</constant> may be returned and should be
- considered equivalent to an empty array.</para>
-
- <para>Similarly, <function>sd_uid_get_seats()</function> may be
- used to determine the list of seats on which the user currently
- has sessions. Similar semantics apply, however note that the user
- may have multiple sessions on the same seat as well as sessions
- with no attached seat and hence the number of entries in the
- returned array may differ from the one returned by
- <function>sd_uid_get_sessions()</function>.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_uid_get_display()</function> returns the name
- of the "primary" session of a user. If the user has graphical
- sessions, it will be the oldest graphical session. Otherwise, it
- will be the oldest open session.</para>

- <title>Return Value</title>
-
- <para>On success, <function>sd_uid_get_state()</function> returns
- 0 or a positive integer. If the test succeeds,
- <function>sd_uid_is_on_seat()</function> returns a positive
- integer; if it fails, 0.
- <function>sd_uid_get_sessions()</function> and
- <function>sd_uid_get_seats()</function> return the number of
- entries in the returned arrays.
- <function>sd_uid_get_display()</function> returns a non-negative
- code on success. On failure, these calls return a negative
- errno-style error code.</para>

-
- <para>Functions described here are available as a shared library,
- and can be compiled and linked to using the
- <constant>libsystemd</constant> <citerefentry project='die-net'><refentrytitle>pkg-config</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
