+ <title>Description</title>
+
+ <para><function>sd_is_fifo()</function> may be called to check
+ whether the specified file descriptor refers to a FIFO or pipe. If
+ the <parameter>path</parameter> parameter is not
+ <constant>NULL</constant>, it is checked whether the FIFO is bound
+ to the specified file system path.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_is_socket()</function> may be called to check
+ whether the specified file descriptor refers to a socket. If the
+ <parameter>family</parameter> parameter is not
+ <constant>AF_UNSPEC</constant>, it is checked whether the socket
+ is of the specified family (<constant>AF_UNIX</constant>,
+ <constant>AF_INET</constant>, …). If the <parameter>type</parameter>
+ parameter is not 0, it is checked whether the socket is of the
+ specified type (<constant>SOCK_STREAM</constant>,
+ <constant>SOCK_DGRAM</constant>, …). If the
+ <parameter>listening</parameter> parameter is positive, it is
+ checked whether the socket is in accepting mode, i.e.
+ <function>listen()</function> has been called for it. If
+ <parameter>listening</parameter> is 0, it is checked whether the
+ socket is not in this mode. If the parameter is negative, no such
+ check is made. The <parameter>listening</parameter> parameter
+ should only be used for stream sockets and should be set to a
+ negative value otherwise.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_is_socket_inet()</function> is similar to
+ <function>sd_is_socket()</function>, but optionally checks the
+ IPv4 or IPv6 port number the socket is bound to, unless
+ <parameter>port</parameter> is zero. For this call
+ <parameter>family</parameter> must be passed as either
+ <constant>AF_UNSPEC</constant>, <constant>AF_INET</constant>, or
+ <constant>AF_INET6</constant>.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_is_socket_sockaddr()</function> is similar to
+ <function>sd_is_socket_inet()</function>, but checks if the socket is bound to the
+ address specified by <parameter>addr</parameter>. The
+ <structfield>family</structfield> specified by <parameter>addr</parameter> must be
+ either <constant>AF_INET</constant> or <constant>AF_INET6</constant> and
+ <parameter>addr_len</parameter> must be large enough for that family. If
+ <parameter>addr</parameter> specifies a non-zero port, it is also checked if the
+ socket is bound to this port. In addition, for IPv6, if <parameter>addr</parameter>
+ specifies non-zero <structfield>sin6_flowinfo</structfield> or
+ <structfield>sin6_scope_id</structfield>, it is checked if the socket has the same
+ values.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_is_socket_unix()</function> is similar to
+ <function>sd_is_socket()</function> but optionally checks the
+ <constant>AF_UNIX</constant> path the socket is bound to, unless
+ the <parameter>path</parameter> parameter is
+ <constant>NULL</constant>. For normal file system
+ <constant>AF_UNIX</constant> sockets, set the
+ <parameter>length</parameter> parameter to 0. For Linux abstract
+ namespace sockets, set the <parameter>length</parameter> to the
+ size of the address, including the initial 0 byte, and set the
+ <parameter>path</parameter> to the initial 0 byte of the socket
+ address.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_is_mq()</function> may be called to check
+ whether the specified file descriptor refers to a POSIX message
+ queue. If the <parameter>path</parameter> parameter is not
+ <constant>NULL</constant>, it is checked whether the message queue
+ is bound to the specified name.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_is_special()</function> may be called to check
+ whether the specified file descriptor refers to a special file. If
+ the <parameter>path</parameter> parameter is not
+ <constant>NULL</constant>, it is checked whether the file
+ descriptor is bound to the specified filename. Special files in
+ this context are character device nodes and files in
+ <filename>/proc/</filename> or <filename>/sys/</filename>.</para>

+ <title>Return Value</title>
+
+ <para>On failure, these calls return a negative errno-style error
+ code. If the file descriptor is of the specified type and bound to
+ the specified address, a positive return value is returned,
+ otherwise zero.</para>
