+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+\fBsd_journal_query_unique()\fR
+queries the journal for all unique values the specified field can take\&. It takes two arguments: the journal to query and the field name to look for\&. Well\-known field names are listed on
+\fBsystemd.journal-fields\fR(7), but any field can be specified\&. Field names must be specified without a trailing
+"="\&. After this function has been executed successfully the field values may be queried using
+\fBsd_journal_enumerate_unique()\fR
+and
+\fBsd_journal_enumerate_available_unique()\fR\&. Invoking one of those calls will change the field name being queried and reset the enumeration index to the first field value that matches\&.
+.PP
+\fBsd_journal_enumerate_unique()\fR
+may be used to iterate through all data fields which match the previously selected field name as set with
+\fBsd_journal_query_unique()\fR\&. On each invocation the next field data matching the field name is returned\&. The order of the returned data fields is not defined\&. It takes three arguments: the journal object, plus a pair of pointers to pointer/size variables where the data object and its size shall be stored\&. The returned data is in a read\-only memory map and is only valid until the next invocation of
+\fBsd_journal_enumerate_unique()\fR\&. Note that the data returned will be prefixed with the field name and
+"="\&. Note that this call is subject to the data field size threshold as controlled by
+\fBsd_journal_set_data_threshold()\fR
+and only the initial part of the field up to the threshold is returned\&. An error is returned for fields which cannot be retrieved\&. See the error list below for details\&.
+.PP
+\fBsd_journal_enumerate_available_unique()\fR
+is similar to
+\fBsd_journal_enumerate_unique()\fR, but silently skips any fields which may be valid, but are too large or not supported by current implementation\&.
+.PP
+\fBsd_journal_restart_unique()\fR
+resets the data enumeration index to the beginning of the list\&. The next invocation of
+\fBsd_journal_enumerate_unique()\fR
+will return the first field data matching the field name again\&.
+.PP
+Note that the
+\fBSD_JOURNAL_FOREACH_UNIQUE()\fR
+macro may be used as a handy wrapper around
+\fBsd_journal_restart_unique()\fR
+and
+\fBsd_journal_enumerate_available_unique()\fR\&.
+.PP
+Note that these functions currently are not influenced by matches set with
+\fBsd_journal_add_match()\fR
+but this might change in a later version of this software\&.
+.PP
+To enumerate all field names currently in use (and thus all suitable field parameters for
+\fBsd_journal_query_unique()\fR), use the
+\fBsd_journal_enumerate_fields\fR(3)
+call\&.
+.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+.PP
+\fBsd_journal_query_unique()\fR
+returns 0 on success or a negative errno\-style error code\&.
+\fBsd_journal_enumerate_unique()\fR
+and
+\fBsd_journal_query_available_unique()\fR
+return a positive integer if the next field data has been read, 0 when no more fields remain, or a negative errno\-style error code\&.
+\fBsd_journal_restart_unique()\fR
+doesn\*(Aqt return anything\&.
+.SS "Errors"
+.PP
+Returned errors may indicate the following problems:
+.PP
+\fB\-EINVAL\fR
+.RS 4
+One of the required parameters is
+\fBNULL\fR
+or invalid\&.
+.sp
+Added in version 246\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-ECHILD\fR
+.RS 4
+The journal object was created in a different process, library or module instance\&.
+.sp
+Added in version 246\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-EADDRNOTAVAIL\fR
+.RS 4
+The read pointer is not positioned at a valid entry;
+\fBsd_journal_next\fR(3)
+or a related call has not been called at least once\&.
+.sp
+Added in version 246\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-ENOENT\fR
+.RS 4
+The current entry does not include the specified field\&.
+.sp
+Added in version 246\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-ENOBUFS\fR
+.RS 4
+A compressed entry is too large\&.
+.sp
+Added in version 246\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-E2BIG\fR
+.RS 4
+The data field is too large for this computer architecture (e\&.g\&. above 4 GB on a 32\-bit architecture)\&.
+.sp
+Added in version 246\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-EPROTONOSUPPORT\fR
+.RS 4
+The journal is compressed with an unsupported method or the journal uses an unsupported feature\&.
+.sp
+Added in version 246\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-EBADMSG\fR
+.RS 4
+The journal is corrupted (possibly just the entry being iterated over)\&.
+.sp
+Added in version 246\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-EIO\fR
+.RS 4
+An I/O error was reported by the kernel\&.
+.sp
+Added in version 246\&.
+.RE
+.SH "NOTES"
+.PP
+All functions listed here are thread\-agnostic and only a single specific thread may operate on a given object during its entire lifetime\&. It\*(Aqs safe to allocate multiple independent objects and use each from a specific thread in parallel\&. However, it\*(Aqs not safe to allocate such an object in one thread, and operate or free it from any other, even if locking is used to ensure these threads don\*(Aqt operate on it at the very same time\&.
+.PP
+Functions described here are available as a shared library, which can be compiled against and linked to with the
+\fBlibsystemd\fR\ \&\fBpkg-config\fR(1)
+file\&.
+.SH "EXAMPLES"
+.PP
+Use the
+\fBSD_JOURNAL_FOREACH_UNIQUE()\fR
+macro to iterate through all values a field of the journal can take (and which can be accessed on the given architecture and are not compressed with an unsupported mechanism)\&. The following example lists all unit names referenced in the journal:
