NAME

6       sd_machine_get_class, sd_machine_get_ifindices - Determine the class
7       and network interface indices of a locally running virtual machine or
8       container

SYNOPSIS

11       #include <systemd/sd-login.h>
12
13       int sd_machine_get_class(const char* machine, char **class);
14
15       int sd_machine_get_ifindices(const char* machine, int **ret_ifindices);
16

DESCRIPTION

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. The vm or
27       container must be registered with systemd-machined.service(8). The
28       output parameter ret_ifindices may be passed as NULL when the output
29       value is not needed. The returned array needs to be freed with the libc
30       free(3) call after use.
31

RETURN VALUE

33       On success, these functions return a non-negative integer.
34       sd_machine_get_ifindices() returns the number of the relevant network
35       interfaces. On failure, these calls return a negative errno-style error
36       code.
37
38   Errors
39       Returned errors may indicate the following problems:
40
41       -ENXIO
42           The specified machine does not exist or is currently not running.
43
44       -EINVAL
45           An input parameter was invalid (out of range, or NULL, where that
46           is not accepted).
47
48       -ENOMEM
49           Memory allocation failed.

NOTES

52       These APIs are implemented as a shared library, which can be compiled
53       and linked to with the libsystemd pkg-config(1) file.
