16
18 sd_machine_get_class() may be used to determine the class of a locally
19 running virtual machine or container that is registered with systemd-
20 machined.service(8). The string returned is either "vm" or "container".
21 The returned string needs to be freed with the libc free(3) call after
22 use.
23
24 sd_machine_get_ifindices() may be used to determine the numeric indices
25 of the network interfaces on the host that are pointing towards the
26 specified locally running virtual machine or container that is
27 registered with systemd-machined.service(8). The returned array needs
28 to be freed with the libc free(3) call after use.
29
31 On success, these calls return 0 or a positive integer. On failure,
32 these calls return a negative errno-style error code.
33
34 Errors
35 Returned errors may indicate the following problems:
36
37 -ENXIO
38 The specified machine does not exist or is currently not running.
39
40 -EINVAL
41 An input parameter was invalid (out of range, or NULL, where that
42 is not accepted).
43
44 -ENOMEM
45 Memory allocation failed.
46
48 These APIs are implemented as a shared library, which can be compiled
49 and linked to with the libsystemd pkg-config(1) file.
