-.PP
-\fBsd_bus_message_read()\fR
-reads a sequence of fields from the D\-Bus message object
-\fIm\fR
-and advances the read position in the message\&. The type string
-\fItypes\fR
-describes the types of items expected in the message and the field arguments that follow\&. The type string may be
-\fBNULL\fR
-or empty, in which case nothing is read\&.
-.PP
-The type string is composed of the elements described in
-\fBsd_bus_message_append\fR(3), i\&.e\&. basic and container types\&. It must contain zero or more single "complete types"\&. The type string is
-\fBNUL\fR\-terminated\&.
-.PP
-For each type specified in the type string, one or more arguments need to be specified after the
-\fItypes\fR
-parameter, in the same order\&. The arguments must be pointers to appropriate types (a pointer to
-\fBint8_t\fR
-for a
-"y"
-in the type string, a pointer to
-\fBint32_t\fR
-for an
-"i", a pointer to
-\fBconst char*\fR
-for an
-"s", \&.\&.\&.) which are set based on the values in the message\&. As an exception, in case of array and variant types, the first argument is an "input" argument that further specifies how the message should be read\&. See the table below for a complete list of allowed arguments and their types\&. Note that, if the basic type is a pointer (e\&.g\&.,
-\fBconst char *\fR
-in the case of a string), the argument is a pointer to a pointer, and also the pointer value that is written is only borrowed and the contents must be copied if they are to be used after the end of the message\*(Aqs lifetime\&. If the type is
-"h"
-(UNIX file descriptor), the descriptor is not duplicated by this call and the returned descriptor remains in possession of the message object, and needs to be duplicated by the caller in order to keep an open reference to it after the message object is freed\&.
-.PP
-Each argument may also be
-\fBNULL\fR, in which case the value is read and ignored\&.

-The
-\fBsd_bus_message_readv()\fR
-is equivalent to the
-\fBsd_bus_message_read()\fR, except that it is called with a
-"va_list"
-instead of a variable number of arguments\&. This function does not call the
-\fBva_end()\fR
-macro\&. Because it invokes the
-\fBva_arg()\fR
-macro, the value of
-\fIap\fR
-is undefined after the call\&.
-.PP
-\fBsd_bus_message_peek_type()\fR
-determines the type of the next element in
-\fIm\fR
-to be read by
-\fBsd_bus_message_read()\fR
-or similar functions\&. On success, the type is stored in
-\fItype\fR, if it is not
-\fBNULL\fR\&. If the type is a container type, the type of its elements is stored in
-\fIcontents\fR, if it is not
-\fBNULL\fR\&. If this function successfully determines the type of the next element in
-\fIm\fR, it returns a positive integer\&. If there are no more elements to be read, it returns zero\&.
-.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
-Returned errors may indicate the following problems:
-.PP
-\fB\-EINVAL\fR
-.RS 4
-Specified type string is invalid or the message parameter is
-\fBNULL\fR\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\fB\-ENXIO\fR
-.RS 4
-The message does not contain the specified type at current position\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\fB\-EBADMSG\fR
-.RS 4
-The message cannot be parsed\&.
-.RE
-.PP
-\fB\-EBUSY\fR
-.RS 4
-When reading from a container, this error will be returned if unread elements are left in the container\&.
-.RE
-.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\&.
