+ <para><filename>sd-journal.h</filename> provides APIs to submit

+ journal service and as parser for the journal files on disk.

+ <title>Thread safety</title>
+
+ <para>Functions that operate on <structname>sd_journal</structname> objects are thread agnostic — given
+ <structname>sd_journal</structname> pointer may only be used from one specific thread at all times (and it has to
+ be the very same one during the entire lifetime of the object), but multiple, independent threads may use multiple,
+ independent objects safely. Other functions — those that are used to send entries to the journal, like
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_print</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> and similar,
+ or those that are used to retrieve global information like
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_stream_fd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> and
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_get_catalog_for_message_id</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ — are fully thread-safe and may be called from multiple threads in parallel.</para>
