+ <title>Description</title>
+
+ <para><function>sd_bus_negotiate_fds()</function> controls whether file descriptor passing shall be
+ negotiated for the specified bus connection. It takes a bus object and a boolean, which, when true,
+ enables file descriptor passing, and, when false, disables it. Note that not all transports and servers
+ support file descriptor passing. In particular, networked transports generally do not support file
+ descriptor passing. To find out whether file descriptor passing is available after negotiation, use
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_can_send</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ and pass <constant>SD_BUS_TYPE_UNIX_FD</constant>. Note that file descriptor passing is always enabled
+ for both sending and receiving or for neither, but never only in one direction. By default, file
+ descriptor passing is negotiated for all connections.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_bus_negotiate_timestamp()</function> controls whether implicit sender timestamps shall
+ be attached automatically to all incoming messages. Takes a bus object and a boolean, which, when true,
+ enables timestamping, and, when false, disables it. Use
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_message_get_monotonic_usec</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_message_get_realtime_usec</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_message_get_seqnum</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ to query the timestamps of incoming messages. If negotiation is disabled or not supported, these calls
+ will fail with <constant>-ENODATA</constant>. Note that currently no transports support timestamping of
+ messages. By default, message timestamping is not negotiated for connections.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_bus_negotiate_creds()</function> controls whether and which implicit sender
+ credentials shall be attached automatically to all incoming messages. Takes a bus object and a boolean
+ indicating whether to enable or disable the credential parts encoded in the bit mask value argument. Note
+ that not all transports support attaching sender credentials to messages, or do not support all types of
+ sender credential parameters, or might suppress them under certain circumstances for individual messages.
+ Specifically, dbus1 only supports <constant>SD_BUS_CREDS_UNIQUE_NAME</constant>. The sender credentials
+ are suitable for authorization decisions. By default, only
+ <constant>SD_BUS_CREDS_WELL_KNOWN_NAMES</constant> and <constant>SD_BUS_CREDS_UNIQUE_NAME</constant> are
+ enabled. In fact, these two credential fields are always sent along and cannot be turned off.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_bus_get_creds_mask()</function> returns the set of sender credentials that was
+ negotiated to be attached to all incoming messages in <parameter>mask</parameter>. This value is an
+ upper boundary only. Hence, always make sure to explicitly check which credentials are attached to a
+ specific message before using it.</para>
+
+ <para>The <function>sd_bus_negotiate_fds()</function> function may be called only before the connection
+ has been started with
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_start</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. Both
+ <function>sd_bus_negotiate_timestamp()</function> and <function>sd_bus_negotiate_creds()</function> may
+ also be called after a connection has been set up. Note that, when operating on a connection that is
+ shared between multiple components of the same program (for example via
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_default</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>), it
+ is highly recommended to only enable additional per message metadata fields, but never disable them
+ again, in order not to disable functionality needed by other components.</para>
