21
23 sd_event_source_set_enabled() may be used to enable or disable the
24 event source object specified as source. The enabled parameter takes
25 one of SD_EVENT_ON (to enable), SD_EVENT_OFF (to disable) or
26 SD_EVENT_ONESHOT. If invoked with SD_EVENT_ONESHOT the event source
27 will be enabled but automatically reset to SD_EVENT_OFF after the event
28 source was dispatched once.
29
30 Event sources that are disabled will not result in event loop wakeups
31 and will not be dispatched, until they are enabled again.
32
33 sd_event_source_get_enabled() may be used to query whether the event
34 source object source is currently enabled or not. It returns the
35 enablement state (one of SD_EVENT_ON, SD_EVENT_OFF, SD_EVENT_ONESHOT)
36 in enabled, if it is not NULL. It also returns true if the event source
37 is not disabled.
38
39 Event source objects are enabled when they are first created with calls
40 such as sd_event_add_io(3), sd_event_add_time(3). However, depending on
41 the event source type they are enabled continuously (SD_EVENT_ON) or
42 only for a single invocation of the event source handler
43 (SD_EVENT_ONESHOT). For details see the respective manual pages.
44
45 As event source objects stay active and may be dispatched as long as
46 there is at least one reference to them, in many cases it is a good
47 idea to combine a call to sd_event_source_unref(3) with a prior call to
48 sd_event_source_set_enabled() with SD_EVENT_OFF, to ensure the event
49 source is not dispatched again until all other remaining references are
50 dropped.
51
53 On success, sd_event_source_set_enabled() returns a non-negative
54 integer. sd_event_source_get_enabled() returns zero if the source is
55 disabled (SD_EVENT_OFF) and a positive integer otherwise. On failure,
56 they return a negative errno-style error code.
57
58 Errors
59 Returned errors may indicate the following problems:
60
61 -EINVAL
62 source is not a valid pointer to an sd_event_source object.
63
64 -ENOMEM
65 Not enough memory.
66
67 -ECHILD
68 The event loop has been created in a different process.
69
71 These APIs are implemented as a shared library, which can be compiled
72 and linked to with the libsystemd pkg-config(1) file.
