+    <title>Description</title>
+
+    <para><function>sd_hwdb_get()</function> queries the <parameter>hwdb</parameter> object created earlier
+    with <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_hwdb_new</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> for
+    entries matching the specified string <parameter>modalias</parameter>, and returns the value
+    corresponding to the key <parameter>key</parameter>. The value is returned as a
+    <constant>NUL</constant>-terminated string in <parameter>value</parameter>. It must not be modified by
+    the caller and is valid as long as a reference to <parameter>hwdb</parameter> is kept. When multiple
+    patterns in the database match <parameter>modalias</parameter>, the one with the highest priority is
+    used. See <citerefentry><refentrytitle>hwdb</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> for
+    details.</para>
+
+    <para><function>sd_hwdb_seek()</function> selects entries matching the specified string
+    <parameter>modalias</parameter>. Subsequent queries with <function>sd_hwdb_enumerate()</function> will
+    access the key-value pairs for that string.</para>
+
+    <para><function>sd_hwdb_enumerate()</function> returns (in turn) all the key-value pairs defined for the
+    string used with <function>sd_hwdb_seek()</function>. Each pair is returned as
+    <constant>NUL</constant>-terminated strings in <parameter>key</parameter> and
+    <parameter>value</parameter>. The strings must not be modified by the caller and are valid as long as a
+    reference to <parameter>hwdb</parameter> is kept. When multiple patterns in the database match
+    <parameter>modalias</parameter>, the combination of all matching key-value pairs is used. See
+    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>hwdb</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> for
+    details.</para>
+
+    <para>The <function>SD_HWDB_FOREACH_PROPERTY()</function> macro combines
+    <function>sd_hwdb_seek()</function> and <function>sd_hwdb_enumerate()</function>. No error handling is
+    performed and iteration simply stops on error. See the example below.</para>

+    <title>Return Value</title>
+
+    <para>On success, <function>sd_hwdb_get()</function> and <function>sd_hwdb_seek()</function> return a
+    non-negative integer. On failure, they return a negative errno-style error code.</para>
+
+    <para><function>sd_hwdb_enumerate()</function> returns a positive integer if another key-value pair was found or zero if
+    all entries have already been enumerated. On failure, it returns a negative errno-style error code.
