+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+\fBsd_journal_enumerate_fields()\fR
+may be used to iterate through all field names used in the opened journal files\&. On each invocation the next field name is returned\&. The order of the returned field names is not defined\&. It takes two arguments: the journal context object, plus a pointer to a constant string pointer where the field name is stored in\&. The returned data is in a read\-only memory map and is only valid until the next invocation of
+\fBsd_journal_enumerate_fields()\fR\&. Note that this call is subject to the data field size threshold as controlled by
+\fBsd_journal_set_data_threshold()\fR\&.
+.PP
+\fBsd_journal_restart_fields()\fR
+resets the field name enumeration index to the beginning of the list\&. The next invocation of
+\fBsd_journal_enumerate_fields()\fR
+will return the first field name again\&.
+.PP
+The
+\fBSD_JOURNAL_FOREACH_FIELD()\fR
+macro may be used as a handy wrapper around
+\fBsd_journal_restart_fields()\fR
+and
+\fBsd_journal_enumerate_fields()\fR\&.
+.PP
+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 retrieve the possible values a specific field can take use
+\fBsd_journal_query_unique\fR(3)\&.
+.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+.PP
+\fBsd_journal_enumerate_fields()\fR
+returns a positive integer if the next field name has been read, 0 when no more field names are known, or a negative errno\-style error code\&.
+\fBsd_journal_restart_fields()\fR
+returns nothing\&.
+.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_FIELD()\fR
+macro to iterate through all field names in use in the current journal\&.
