Specifically, depending on the <parameter>b</parameter> + boolean argument this will make sure the event loop wakes up in + regular intervals and sends watchdog notification messages to the + service manager, if this was requested by the service + manager. Watchdog support is determined with + <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_watchdog_enabled</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>, + and watchdog messages are sent with + <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_notify</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. See + the <varname>WatchdogSec=</varname> setting in + <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry> + for details on how to enable watchdog support for a service and + the protocol used. The wake-up interval is chosen as half the + watchdog timeout declared by the service manager via the + <varname>$WATCHDOG_USEC</varname> environment variable. If the + service manager did not request watchdog notifications, or if the + process was not invoked by the service manager this call with a + true <parameter>b</parameter> parameter executes no + operation. Passing a false <parameter>b</parameter> parameter will + disable the automatic sending of watchdog notification messages if + it was enabled before.

Watchdog notifications + are sent out only at the beginning of each event loop + iteration.
