systemd sd_bus_send 3 sd_bus_send Queue a D-Bus message for transfer #include <systemd/sd-bus.h> int sd_bus_send sd_bus *bus sd_bus_message *m uint64_t *cookie sd_bus_send() queues the bus message object m for transfer. If bus is NULL, the bus that m is attached to is used. bus only needs to be set when the message is sent to a different bus than the one it's attached to, for example when forwarding messages. If the output parameter cookie is not NULL, it is set to the message identifier. This value can later be used to match incoming replies to their corresponding messages. If cookie is set to NULL and the message is not sealed, sd_bus_send() assumes the message m doesn't expect a reply and adds the necessary headers to indicate this. Note that in most scenarios, sd_bus_send() should not be called directly. Instead, use higher level functions such as sd_bus_call_method3 and sd_bus_reply_method_return3 which call sd_bus_send() internally. On success, this function returns a non-negative integer. On failure, it returns a negative errno-style error code. Returned errors may indicate the following problems: -EINVAL The input parameter m is NULL. -EOPNOTSUPP The bus connection does not support sending file descriptors. -ECHILD The bus connection was allocated in a parent process and is being reused in a child process after fork(). -ENOBUFS The bus connection's write queue is full. -ENOTCONN The input parameter bus is NULL or the bus is not connected. -ECONNRESET The bus connection was closed while waiting for the response. -ENOMEM Memory allocation failed. systemd1, sd-bus3, sd_bus_call_method3, sd_bus_message_set_destination3, sd_bus_reply_method_return3, sd_bus_send_to3
