+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+These functions set or query D\-Bus properties\&. D\-Bus properties are service fields exposed via the
+\fBorg\&.freedesktop\&.DBus\&.Properties\fR
+interface\&. Under the hood, these functions call methods of the
+\fBorg\&.freedesktop\&.DBus\&.Properties\fR
+interface and as a result their semantics are similar to
+\fBsd_bus_call_method\fR(3)\&.
+.PP
+\fBsd_bus_set_property()\fR
+sets a D\-Bus property\&. If setting the property fails or an internal error occurs, an error is returned and an extended description of the error is optionally stored in
+\fIret_error\fR
+if it is not
+\fBNULL\fR\&.
+\fItype\fR
+and the arguments that follow it describe the new value of the property and must follow the format described in
+\fBsd_bus_message_append\fR(3)\&.
+.PP
+\fBsd_bus_set_propertyv()\fR
+is equivalent to
+\fBsd_bus_set_property()\fR, except that it is called with a
+"va_list"
+instead of a variable number of arguments\&.
+.PP
+\fBsd_bus_get_property()\fR
+queries a D\-Bus property\&. If retrieving the property fails or an internal error occurs, an error is returned and an extended description of the error is optionally stored in
+\fIret_error\fR
+if it is not
+\fBNULL\fR\&. On success, the property is stored in
+\fIreply\fR\&.
+\fItype\fR
+describes the property type and must follow the format described in
+\fBsd_bus_message_append\fR(3)\&.
+.PP
+\fBsd_bus_get_property_trivial()\fR,
+\fBsd_bus_get_property_string()\fR
+and
+\fBsd_bus_get_property_strv()\fR
+are shorthands for
+\fBsd_bus_get_property()\fR
+that are used to query basic, string and string vector properties respectively\&. The caller is responsible for freeing the string and string vector results stored in
+\fIret\fR
+by
+\fBsd_bus_get_property_string()\fR
+and
+\fBsd_bus_get_property_strv()\fR\&.
+.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+.PP
+On success, these functions return a non\-negative integer\&. On failure, they return a negative errno\-style error code\&.
+.SS "Errors"
+.PP
+See the
+\fBsd_bus_call_method\fR(3)
+man page for a list of possible errors\&.
+.SH "NOTES"
+.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\&.
+.PP
+The code described here uses
+\fBgetenv\fR(3), which is declared to be not multi\-thread\-safe\&. This means that the code calling the functions described here must not call
+\fBsetenv\fR(3)
+from a parallel thread\&. It is recommended to only do calls to
+\fBsetenv()\fR
+from an early phase of the program when no other threads have been started\&.
+.SH "HISTORY"
+.PP
+\fBsd_bus_set_property()\fR,
+\fBsd_bus_set_propertyv()\fR,
+\fBsd_bus_get_property()\fR,
+\fBsd_bus_get_property_trivial()\fR,
+\fBsd_bus_get_property_string()\fR, and
+\fBsd_bus_get_property_strv()\fR
+were added in version 246\&.
