Fixed typos, serial comma, and removed "either" as there were more
than two options. Also did an extra rename of "system-shutdown"
to "systemd-shutdown" that was forgotten in commit

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_journal_next()</function> advances
|
|
the read pointer into the journal by one entry. The
|
|
only argument taken is a journal context object as
|
|
allocated via
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_open</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. After
|
|
successful invocation the entry may be read with
|
|
functions such as
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_get_data</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Similar, <function>sd_journal_previous()</function> sets
|
|
the read pointer back one entry.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_journal_next_skip()</function> and
|
|
<function>sd_journal_previous_skip()</function>
|
|
advance/set back the read pointer by multiple entries
|
|
at once, as specified in the <varname>skip</varname>
|
|
parameter.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The journal is strictly ordered by reception
|
|
time, and hence advancing to the next entry guarantees
|
|
that the entry then pointing to is later in time than
|
|
then previous one, or has the same timestamp.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_get_data</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
and related calls will fail unless
|
|
<function>sd_journal_next()</function> has been
|
|
invoked at least once in order to position the read
|
|
pointer on a journal entry.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that the
|
|
<function>SD_JOURNAL_FOREACH()</function> macro may be used
|
|
as a wrapper around
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_seek_head</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
and <function>sd_journal_next()</function> in order to
|
|
make iterating through the journal easier. See below
|
|
for an example. Similar,
|
|
<function>SD_JOURNAL_FOREACH_BACKWARDS()</function>
|
|
may be used for iterating the journal in reverse
|
|
order.</para>

|
|
<title>Return Value</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>The four calls return the number of entries
|
|
advanced/set back on success or a negative errno-style
|
|
error code. When the end or beginning of the journal
|
|
is reached, a number smaller than requested is
|
|
returned. More specifically, if
|
|
<function>sd_journal_next()</function> or
|
|
<function>sd_journal_previous()</function> reach the
|
|
end/beginning of the journal they will return 0,
|
|
instead of 1 when they are successful. This should be
|
|
considered an EOF marker.</para>
