After all, we now moved sd-bus out of the kdbus conditional, hence the man pages should be too.

<title>Description</title>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_bus_default()</function> acquires a bus
|
||
connection object to the user bus when invoked in user context or
|
||
to the system bus otherwise. The connection object is associated
|
||
to the calling thread. Each time the function is invoked from the
|
||
same thread the same object is returned, but its reference count
|
||
increased by one, as long as at least one reference is kept. When
|
||
the last reference to the connection is dropped (using the
|
||
<function>sd_bus_unref()</function> call), the connection is
|
||
terminated. Note that the connection is not automatically
|
||
terminated when the associated thread ends. It is important to
|
||
drop the last reference to the bus connection explicitly before
|
||
the thread ends or otherwise the connection will be leaked.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_bus_default_user()</function> returns a user
|
||
bus connection object associated to the calling thread.
|
||
<function>sd_bus_default_system()</function> is similar, but
|
||
connects to the system bus.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_bus_open()</function> creates a new,
|
||
independent bus connection to the user bus when invoked in user
|
||
context or the system bus
|
||
otherwise. <function>sd_bus_open_user()</function> is similar, but
|
||
connects only to the user bus.
|
||
<function>sd_bus_open_system()</function> does the same, but
|
||
connects to the system bus. In contrast to
|
||
<function>sd_bus_default()</function>,
|
||
<function>sd_bus_default_user()</function>,
|
||
<function>sd_bus_default_system()</function> these calls return
|
||
new, independent connection objects that are not associated with
|
||
the invoking thread and are not shared between multiple
|
||
invocations. It is recommended to share connections per thread to
|
||
efficiently make use the available resources. Thus, it is
|
||
recommended to use <function>sd_bus_default()</function>,
|
||
<function>sd_bus_default_user()</function>,
|
||
<function>sd_bus_default_system()</function> to connect to the
|
||
user or system buses.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>If the <varname>$DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS</varname> environment
|
||
variable is set
|
||
(cf. <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>environ</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>),
|
||
it will be used as the address of the user bus. This variable can
|
||
contain multiple addresses separated by <literal>;</literal>. If
|
||
this variable is not set, a suitable default for the default user
|
||
D-Bus instance will be used.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>If the <varname>$DBUS_SYSTEM_BUS_ADDRESS</varname>
|
||
environment variable is set, it will be used as the address of the
|
||
system bus. This variable uses the same syntax as
|
||
<varname>$DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS</varname>. If this variable is
|
||
not set, a suitable default for the default system D-Bus instance
|
||
will be used.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_bus_open_system_remote()</function> connects to
|
||
the system bus on the specified <parameter>host</parameter> using
|
||
SSH. <parameter>host</parameter> consists of an optional user name
|
||
followed by the <literal>@</literal> symbol, and the hostname.
|
||
</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_bus_open_system_container()</function> connects
|
||
to the system bus in the specified <parameter>machine</parameter>,
|
||
where <parameter>machine</parameter> is the name of a local
|
||
container. See
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>machinectl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>

<title>Return Value</title>

errno-style error code.</para>

<function>sd_bus_open_system()</function>,
|

<function>sd_bus_open_system_remote()</function>, and
|

<function>sd_bus_open_system_machine()</function> return a new
|

object and the caller owns the sole reference. When not needed

anymore, this reference should be destroyed with

<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_unref</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.

<para>The functions <function>sd_bus_default()</function>,

<function>sd_bus_default_user()</function> and

<function>sd_bus_default_system()</function> do not necessarily
|

create a new object, but increase the connection reference by

one. Use
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_unref</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
