This completes the set of man pages for sd-event and contains some minor other fixes for other man pages too. The sd_event_set_name(3) man page is renamed to sd_event_source_set_description(3), which is the correct name of the concept today.

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_event_run()</function> may be used to run a single
|
|
iteration of the event loop specified in the
|
|
<parameter>event</parameter> parameter. The function waits until an event to
|
|
process is available, and dispatches the registered handler for
|
|
it. The <parameter>usec</parameter> parameter specifies the
|
|
maximum time (in microseconds) to wait for an event. Use
|
|
<constant>(uint64_t) -1</constant> to specify an infinite
|
|
timeout.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_event_loop()</function> invokes
|
|
<function>sd_event_run()</function> in a loop, thus implementing
|
|
the actual event loop. The call returns as soon as exiting was
|
|
requested using
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_exit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The event loop object <parameter>event</parameter> is
|
|
created with
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_new</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
|
|
Events sources to wait for and their handlers may be registered
|
|
with
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_add_io</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_add_time</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,

</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>For low-level control of event loop execution, use
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_prepare</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_wait</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
and
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_dispatch</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
which are wrapped by <function>sd_event_run()</function>. Along
|
|
with
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_get_fd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
|
these functions allow integration of an
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd-event</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
event loop into foreign event loop implementations.</para>

|
<title>Return Value</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>On failure, these functions return a negative errno-style
|
|
error code. <function>sd_event_run()</function> returns a
|
|
positive, non-zero integer if an event source was dispatched, and
|
|
zero when the specified timeout hit before an event source has
|
|
seen any event, and hence no event source was
|
|
dispatched. <function>sd_event_loop()</function> returns the exit
|
|
code specified when invoking
|
|
<function>sd_event_exit()</function>.</para>
