<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_event_source_unref()</function> may be used to decrement by one the internal reference
counter of the event source object specified as <parameter>source</parameter>. The reference counter is
initially set to one, when the event source is created with calls such as
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_add_io</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> or
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_add_time</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. When
the reference counter reaches zero, the object is detached from the event loop object and destroyed.
</para>
<para><function>sd_event_source_unrefp()</function> is similar to
<function>sd_event_source_unref()</function> but takes a pointer to a
pointer to an <type>sd_event_source</type> object. This call is useful in
conjunction with GCC's and LLVM's <ulink
url="https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Common-Variable-Attributes.html">Clean-up
Variable Attribute</ulink>. Note that this function is defined as
inline function.</para>
<para><function>sd_event_source_ref()</function> may be used to increase by one the internal reference
counter of the event source object specified as <parameter>source</parameter>.</para>
<para><function>sd_event_source_unref()</function>,
<function>sd_bus_creds_unrefp()</function> and
<function>sd_bus_creds_ref()</function> execute no operation if
the passed event source object is
<constant>NULL</constant>.</para>
<para>Note that event source objects stay alive and may be dispatched as long as they have a reference
counter greater than zero. In order to drop a reference of an event source and make sure the associated
event source handler function is not called anymore it is recommended to combine a call of
<function>sd_event_source_unref()</function> with a prior call to
<function>sd_event_source_set_enabled()</function> with <constant>SD_EVENT_OFF</constant> or call
<function>sd_event_source_disable_unref()</function>, see below.</para>
<para><function>sd_event_source_disable_unref()</function> combines a call to
<function>sd_event_source_set_enabled()</function> with <constant>SD_EVENT_OFF</constant> with
<function>sd_event_source_unref()</function>. This ensures that the source is disabled before the local
reference to it is lost. The <parameter>source</parameter> parameter is allowed to be
<constant>NULL</constant>.</para>
<para><function>sd_event_source_disable_unrefp()</function> is similar to
<function>sd_event_source_unrefp()</function>, but in addition disables the source first. This call is
useful in conjunction with GCC's and LLVM's
<ulink url="https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Common-Variable-Attributes.html">Clean-up Variable
Attribute</ulink>. Note that this function is defined as inline function.</para>

<title>Return Value</title>
<para><function>sd_event_source_unref()</function> and
<function>sd_event_source_disable_unref()</function> always return <constant>NULL</constant>.
<function>sd_event_source_ref()</function> always returns the event source object passed in.</para>
