+                as implemented by the
+                <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+                init system.</para>

+                for more information about the functions
+                implemented. In addition to these functions a couple
+                of logging prefixes are defined as macros:</para>
+
+                <programlisting>#define SD_EMERG   "&lt;0&gt;"  /* system is unusable */
+#define SD_ALERT   "&lt;1&gt;"  /* action must be taken immediately */
+#define SD_CRIT    "&lt;2&gt;"  /* critical conditions */
+#define SD_ERR     "&lt;3&gt;"  /* error conditions */
+#define SD_WARNING "&lt;4&gt;"  /* warning conditions */
+#define SD_NOTICE  "&lt;5&gt;"  /* normal but significant condition */
+#define SD_INFO    "&lt;6&gt;"  /* informational */
+#define SD_DEBUG   "&lt;7&gt;"  /* debug-level messages */</programlisting>
+
+                <para>These prefixes are intended to be used in
+                conjunction with STDERR-based logging as implemented
+                by systemd. If a systemd service definition file is
+                configured with <varname>StandardError=syslog</varname>
+                or <varname>StandardError=kmsg</varname> these
+                prefixes can be used to encode a log level in lines
+                printed. This is similar to the kernel
+                <function>printk()</function>-style logging. See
+                <citerefentry><refentrytitle>klogctl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+                for more information.</para>
+
+                <para>The log levels are identical to
+                <citerefentry><refentrytitle>syslog</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>'s
+                log level system. To use these prefixes simply prefix
+                every line with one of these strings. A line that is
+                not prefixed will be logged at the default log level
+                SD_INFO.</para>
+
+                <example>
+                        <title>Hello World</title>
+
+                        <para>A daemon may log with the log level
+                        NOTICE by issuing this call:</para>
+
+                        <programlisting>fprintf(stderr, SD_NOTICE "Hello World!\n");</programlisting>

+

+                the implementation into their source tree, either
+                verbatim or in excerpts. These interfaces are
+                currently not available in a dynamic library.</para>

+                <parameter>family</parameter> parameter is not
+                AF_UNSPEC it is checked whether the socket is of the

+                checked whether the socket is of the specified type

+                it is checked whether the socket is in accepting mode,
+                i.e. <function>listen()</function> has been called for

+                to, unless the <parameter>path</parameter> parameter
+                is NULL. For normal file system AF_UNIX sockets set

+                they implement are simple, and can easily be

+                this interface without using the reference
+                implementation.</para>
+
+                <para>Internally, these function use a combination of
+                <filename>fstat()</filename> and
+                <filename>getsockname()</filename> to check the file

+
+                <para>For details about the algorithm check the
+                liberally licensed reference implementation sources:

+                passed by the init system as part of the socket-based
+                activation logic.</para>
+
+                <para>If the <parameter>unset_environment</parameter>
+                parameter is non-zero

+                environment variables before returning (regardless
+                whether the function call itself succeeded or
+                not). Further calls to
+                <function>sd_listen_fds()</function> will then fail,
+                but the variables are no longer inherited by child
+                processes.</para>

+                file. Nonetheless it is recommended to verify the

+                recommened to make these checks as loose as possible
+                without allowing incorrect setups. i.e. often the
+                actual port number a socket is bound to matters little
+                for the service to work, hence it should not be
+                verified. On the other hand, whether a socket is a
+                datagram or stream socket matters a lot for the most
+                common program logics and should hence be
+                checked.</para>
+
+                <para>This function call will set the FD_CLOEXEC flag
+                for all passed file descriptors to avoid further

+                <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 function checks whether the

+                equals the daemon PID. If not, it returns
+                immediately. Otherwise it parses the number passed in
+                the <varname>$LISTEN_FDS</varname> environment
+                variable, then sets the FD_CLOEXEC flag for the parsed
+                number of file descriptors starting from
+                SD_LISTEN_FDS_START. Finally it returns the parsed

+                encoded in an environment-block-like string. Most
+                importantly it can be used for start-up completion
+                notification.</para>
+

+                environment variable before returning (regardless
+                whether the function call itself succeeded or
+                not). Further calls to

+                the variable is no longer inherited by child

+                block. A trailing newline is implied if none is
+                specified. The string may contain any kind of variable
+                assignments, but the following shall be considered
+                well-known:</para>
