.SH "NAME"
sd_get_seats, sd_get_sessions, sd_get_uids, sd_get_machine_names \- Determine available seats, sessions, logged in users and virtual machines/containers
.SH "SYNOPSIS"

.HP \w'int\ sd_get_seats('u
.BI "int sd_get_seats(char\ ***" "seats" ");"

.BI "int sd_get_machine_names(char\ ***" "machines" ");"
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBsd_get_seats()\fR
may be used to determine all currently available local seats\&. Returns the number of seat identifiers and if the input pointer is non\-\fBNULL\fR, a
\fBNULL\fR\-terminated array of seat identifiers is stored at the address\&. The returned array and all strings it references need to be freed with the libc
\fBfree\fR(3)
call after use\&. Note that instead of an empty array
\fBNULL\fR
may be returned and should be considered equivalent to an empty array\&.
.PP
Similarly,
\fBsd_get_sessions()\fR
may be used to determine all current login sessions\&.
.PP
Similarly,
\fBsd_get_uids()\fR
may be used to determine all Unix users who currently have login sessions\&.
.PP
Similarly,
\fBsd_get_machine_names()\fR
may be used to determine all current virtual machines and containers on the system\&.
.PP
Note that the returned lists are not sorted and in an undefined order\&.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.PP
On success,
\fBsd_get_seats()\fR,
\fBsd_get_sessions()\fR,
\fBsd_get_uids()\fR
and
\fBsd_get_machine_names()\fR
return the number of entries in the arrays\&. On failure, these calls return a negative errno\-style error code\&.
.SS "Errors"
.PP
Returned errors may indicate the following problems:
.PP
\fB\-ENOMEM\fR
.RS 4
Memory allocation failed\&.
.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\&.
.SH "HISTORY"
.PP
\fBsd_get_machine_names()\fR
was added in version 203\&.
.SH "SEE ALSO"
.PP
