+ <title>Description</title>
+
+ <para>The <function>sd_bus_error_add_map()</function> call may be
+ used to register additional mappings for converting D-Bus errors
+ to Linux <varname>errno</varname>-style errors. The mappings
+ defined with this call are consulted by calls such as
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_error_set</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ or
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_error_get_errno</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. By
+ default, a number of generic, standardized mappings are known, as
+ documented in
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd-bus-errors</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. Use
+ this call to add further, application-specific mappings.</para>
+
+ <para>The function takes a pointer to an array of
+ <structname>sd_bus_error_map</structname> structures. A reference
+ to the specified array is added to the lookup tables for error
+ mappings. Note that the structure is not copied, and that it is hence
+ essential that the array stays available and constant during the
+ entire remaining runtime of the process.</para>
+
+ <para>The mapping array should be put together with a series of
+ <constant>SD_BUS_ERROR_MAP()</constant> macro invocations that
+ take a literal name string and a (positive)
+ <varname>errno</varname>-style error number. The last entry of the
+ array should be an invocation of the
+ <constant>SD_BUS_ERROR_MAP_END</constant> macro. The array should not be
+ put together without use of these two macros.</para>
+
+ <para>Note that the call is idempotent: it is safe to invoke it
+ multiple times with the parameter, which will only add the passed
+ mapping array once.</para>
+
+ <para>Note that the memory allocated by this call is not intended
+ to be freed during the lifetime of the process. It should not be
+ freed explicitly.</para>
+ </refsect1>
+
+ <refsect1>
+ <title>Return Value</title>
+
+ <para><function>sd_bus_error_add_map()</function> returns a
+ positive value when the new array was added to the lookup
+ tables. It returns zero when the same array was already added
+ before. On error, a negative <varname>errno</varname>-style error
+ code is returned. See below for known error codes.</para>
