<para><function>sd_watchdog_enabled()</function> may
|
||
be called by a service to detect whether the service
|
||
manager expects regular keep-alive watchdog
|
||
notification events from it, and the timeout after
|
||
which the manager will act on the service if it did
|
||
not get such a notification.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>If the <parameter>unset_environment</parameter>
|
||
parameter is non-zero,
|
||
<function>sd_watchdog_enabled()</function> will unset
|
||
the <varname>$WATCHDOG_USEC</varname> and
|
||
<varname>$WATCHDOG_PID</varname> environment variables
|
||
before returning (regardless of whether the function call
|
||
itself succeeded or not). Further calls to
|
||
<function>sd_watchdog_enabled()</function> will then
|
||
return with zero, but the variable is no longer
|
||
inherited by child processes.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>If the <parameter>usec</parameter> parameter is
|
||
non-NULL, <function>sd_watchdog_enabled()</function>
|
||
will return the timeout in µs for the watchdog
|
||
logic. The service manager will usually terminate a
|
||
service when it did not get a notification message
|
||
within the specified time after startup and after each
|
||
previous message. It is recommended that a daemon
|
||
sends a keep-alive notification message to the service
|
||
manager every half of the time returned
|
||
here. Notification messages may be sent with
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_notify</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
||
with a message string of
|
||
<literal>WATCHDOG=1</literal>.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>To enable service supervision with the watchdog
|
||
logic, use <varname>WatchdogSec=</varname> in service
|
||
files. See
|

<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>

for details.</para>

<title>Return Value</title>
|
||
|
||
<para>On failure, this call returns a negative
|
||
errno-style error code. If the service manager expects
|
||
watchdog keep-alive notification messages to be sent,
|
||
> 0 is returned, otherwise 0 is returned. Only if
|
||
the return value is > 0, the
|
||
<parameter>usec</parameter> parameter is valid after
|
||
the call.</para>

<title>Notes</title>
|
||
|
||
<para>This function is provided by the reference
|
||
implementation of APIs for new-style daemons and
|
||
distributed with the systemd package. The algorithm
|
||
it implements is simple, and can easily be
|
||
reimplemented in daemons if it is important to support
|
||
this interface without using the reference
|
||
implementation.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>Internally, this functions parses the
|
||
<varname>$WATCHDOG_PID</varname> and
|
||
<varname>$WATCHDOG_USEC</varname> environment
|
||
variable. The call will ignore these variables if
|
||
<varname>$WATCHDOG_PID</varname> does containe the PID
|
||
of the current process, under the assumption that in
|
||
that case, the variables were set for a different
|
||
process further up the process tree.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>For details about the algorithm, check the
|
||
liberally licensed reference implementation sources:
|
||
<ulink url="http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd/plain/src/libsystemd-daemon/sd-daemon.c"/>
|
||
and <ulink
|
||
url="http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd/plain/src/systemd/sd-daemon.h"/></para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_watchdog_enabled()</function> is
|
||
implemented in the reference implementation's
|
||
<filename>sd-daemon.c</filename> and
|
||
<filename>sd-daemon.h</filename> files. These
|
||
interfaces are available as a shared library, which can
|
||
be compiled and linked to with the
|
||
<constant>libsystemd-daemon</constant> <citerefentry><refentrytitle>pkg-config</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
||
file. Alternatively, applications consuming these APIs
|
||
may copy the implementation into their source
|
||
tree. For more details about the reference
|
||
implementation, see
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd-daemon</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>If the reference implementation is used as
|
||
drop-in files and -DDISABLE_SYSTEMD is set during
|
||
compilation, these functions will always return 0 and
|
||
otherwise become a NOP.</para>
