+ <title>Description</title>
+
+ <para><function>sd_bus_set_server()</function> configures the bus object as a server for direct D-Bus
+ connections. <parameter>b</parameter> enables/disables the server mode. If zero, the server mode is
+ disabled. Otherwise, the server mode is enabled. Configuring a bus object as a server is required to
+ allow establishing direct connections between two peers without going via the D-Bus daemon.
+ <parameter>id</parameter> must contain a 128-bit integer id for the server. If clients add a guid field
+ to their D-Bus address string, the server id must match this guid or the D-Bus authentication handshake
+ will fail. If no specific id is defined for the server,
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_id128_randomize</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ can be used to generate a random id instead.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_bus_is_server()</function> returns whether the server mode is enabled for the given
+ bus object.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_bus_get_bus_id()</function> stores the D-Bus server id configured using
+ <function>sd_bus_set_server()</function> (for server bus objects) or received during D-Bus authentication
+ (for client bus objects) in <parameter>id</parameter>.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_bus_set_bus_client()</function> configures the bus object as a D-Bus daemon client.
+ <parameter>b</parameter> enables/disables the client mode. If zero, the client mode is disabled and the
+ bus object should connect directly to a D-Bus server. Otherwise, the client mode is enabled and the bus
+ object should connect to a D-Bus daemon. When connecting to an existing bus using any of the functions in
+ the <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_open</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ family of functions or any of the functions in the
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_default</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> family
+ of functions, the bus object is automatically configured as a bus client. However, when connecting to a
+ D-Bus daemon by calling
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_set_address</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ followed by
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_start</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>, the bus
+ object should be manually configured as a bus client using <function>sd_bus_set_bus_client()</function>.
+ By default, a bus object is not configured as a D-Bus daemon client.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_bus_is_bus_client()</function> returns whether the client mode is enabled/disabled for
+ the given bus object.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_bus_set_monitor()</function> configures the bus object as a D-Bus monitor object.
+ <parameter>b</parameter> enables/disables the monitor mode. If zero, the monitor mode is disabled. If
+ non-zero, the monitor mode is enabled. When the monitor mode is enabled, no messages may be sent via the
+ bus object and it may not expose any objects on the bus. To start monitoring messages, call the
+ <function>org.freedesktop.DBus.Monitoring.BecomeMonitor</function> method of the D-Bus daemon and pass
+ a list of matches indicating which messages to intercept. See
+ <ulink url="https://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-specification.html#bus-messages-become-monitor">
+ The D-Bus specification</ulink> for more information.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_bus_is_monitor()</function> returns whether the monitor mode is enabled/disabled for
+ the given bus object.</para>

+ <title>Return Value</title>
+
+ <para>On success, <function>sd_bus_set_server()</function>,
+ <function>sd_bus_get_bus_id()</function>, <function>sd_bus_set_bus_client()</function> and
+ <function>sd_bus_set_monitor()</function> return a non-negative integer. On failure, they return a
+ negative errno-style error code.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_bus_is_server()</function>, <function>sd_bus_is_bus_client()</function> and
+ <function>sd_bus_is_monitor()</function> return a positive integer when the server or client mode is
+ enabled, respectively. Otherwise, they return zero.</para>
