+ <title>Description</title>
+
+ <para><function>sd_bus_wait()</function> synchronously waits for I/O on the specified bus connection object. This
+ function is supposed to be called whenever
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_process</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> returns zero,
+ indicating that no work is pending on the connection. Internally, this call invokes <citerefentry
+ project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>ppoll</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>, to wait for I/O on
+ the bus connection. If the <parameter>timeout_usec</parameter> parameter is specified, the call will block at most
+ for the specified amount of time in μs. Pass <constant>UINT64_MAX</constant> to permit it to sleep
+ indefinitely.</para>
+
+ <para>After each invocation of <function>sd_bus_wait()</function> the <function>sd_bus_process()</function> call
+ should be invoked in order to process any now pending I/O work.</para>
+
+ <para>Note that <function>sd_bus_wait()</function> is suitable only for simple programs as it does not permit
+ waiting for other I/O events. For more complex programs either connect the bus connection object to an external
+ event loop using <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_get_fd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ or to an <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd-event</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> event loop
+ using
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_attach_event</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>

+
+ <refsect1>
+ <title>Return Value</title>
+
+ <para>If any I/O was seen, a positive value is returned, zero otherwise. If an error occurs, a negative
+ <varname>errno</varname>-style error code is returned.</para>
