This did not really work out as we had hoped. Trying to do this upstream introduced several problems that probably makes it better suited as a downstream patch after all. At any rate, it is not releaseable in the current state, so we at least need to revert this before the release. * by adjusting the path to binaries, but not do the same thing to the search path we end up with inconsistent man-pages. Adjusting the search path too would be quite messy, and it is not at all obvious that this is worth the effort, but at any rate it would have to be done before we could ship this. * this means that distributed man-pages does not make sense as they depend on config options, and for better or worse we are still distributing man pages, so that is something that definitely needs sorting out before we could ship with this patch. * we have long held that split-usr is only minimally supported in order to boot, and something we hope will eventually go away. So before we start adding even more magic/effort in order to make this work nicely, we should probably question if it makes sense at all.

<title>Description</title>
|
||
|
||
<para>The <function>sd_bus_message_append_array</function> functionc
|
||
appends items to message <parameter>m</parameter> as the single
|
||
array. A container will be opened, items appended, and the
|
||
container closed. Parameter <parameter>type</parameter> determines
|
||
how pointer <parameter>p</parameter> is interpreted.
|
||
<parameter>type</parameter> must be one of the "trivial" types
|
||
<literal>y</literal>, <literal>n</literal>, <literal>q</literal>,
|
||
<literal>i</literal>, <literal>u</literal>, <literal>x</literal>,
|
||
<literal>t</literal>, <literal>d</literal> (but not
|
||
<literal>b</literal>), as defined by the
|
||
<ulink url="http://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-specification.html#basic-types">Basic Types</ulink>
|
||
section of the D-Bus specification, and listed in
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_message_append_basic</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
|
||
Pointer <parameter>p</parameter> must point to an array of size
|
||
<parameter>size</parameter> bytes containing items of the
|
||
respective type. Size <parameter>size</parameter> must be a
|
||
multiple of the size of the type <parameter>type</parameter>. As a
|
||
special case, <parameter>p</parameter> may be
|
||
<constant>NULL</constant>, if <parameter>size</parameter> is 0.
|
||
</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>The memory pointed at by <parameter>p</parameter> is copied
|
||
into the memory area containing the message and may be changed
|
||
after this call.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>The
|
||
<function>sd_bus_message_append_array_memfd</function> function appends
|
||
items to message <parameter>m</parameter>, similarly to
|
||
<function>sd_bus_message_append_array</function>. Contents of the
|
||
memory file descriptor <parameter>memfd</parameter> are used as
|
||
the contents of the array. Their size must be a multiple of the
|
||
size of the type <parameter>type</parameter>.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>The descriptor specified with <parameter>memfd</parameter>
|
||
will be sealed and cannot be modified after this call.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>The
|
||
<function>sd_bus_message_append_array_iovec</function> function appends
|
||
items to message <parameter>m</parameter>, similarly to
|
||
<function>sd_bus_message_append_array</function>. Contents of the
|
||
iovec <parameter>iov</parameter> are used as the contents of the
|
||
array. The total size of <parameter>iov</parameter> payload (the
|
||
sum of <structfield>iov_len</structfield> fields) must be a multiple
|
||
of the size of the type <parameter>type</parameter>.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>The <parameter>iov</parameter> argument must point to
|
||
<parameter>n</parameter> <structname>struct iovec</structname>
|
||
structures. Each structure may have the
|
||
<structname>iov_base</structname> field set, in which case the
|
||
memory pointed to will be copied into the message, or unset, in
|
||
which case a block of zeros of length
|
||
<structname>iov_len</structname> bytes will be inserted. The
|
||
memory pointed at by <parameter>iov</parameter> may be changed
|
||
after this call.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>The
|
||
<function>sd_bus_message_append_array_space</function> function appends
|
||
space for an array of items to message <parameter>m</parameter>.
|
||
It behaves the same as
|
||
<function>sd_bus_message_append_array</function>, but instead
|
||
of copying items to the message, it returns a pointer to the
|
||
destination area to the caller in pointer <parameter>p</parameter>.

<title>Return Value</title>

<para>On success, these calls return 0 or a positive integer. On

failure, they returns a negative errno-style error code.</para>
