+ <title>Description</title>
+
+ <para><function>sd_device_get_syspath()</function> returns the sysfs path of the specified device record,
+ including the <filename>/sys</filename> prefix. Example: <filename>/sys/devices/virtual/tty/tty7</filename></para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_device_get_devpath()</function> returns the sysfs path of the specified device record,
+ excluding the <filename>/sys</filename> prefix. Example: <filename>/devices/virtual/tty/tty7</filename></para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_device_get_sysname()</function> returns the sysfs name of the specified device record,
+ i.e. the last component of the sysfs path. Example: <literal>tty7</literal> for the device
+ <filename>/sys/devices/virtual/tty/tty7</filename></para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_device_get_sysnum()</function> returns the sysfs device number of the specified device
+ record, i.e. the numeric suffix of the last component of the sysfs path. Example: <literal>7</literal>
+ for the device <filename>/sys/devices/virtual/tty/tty7</filename></para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_device_get_subsystem()</function> returns the kernel subsystem of the specified device
+ record. This is a short string fitting into a filename, and thus does not contain a slash and cannot be
+ empty. Example: <literal>tty</literal>, <literal>block</literal> or <literal>net</literal>.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_device_get_devtype()</function> returns the device type of the specified device
+ record, if the subsystem manages multiple types of devices. Example: for devices of the
+ <literal>block</literal> subsystem this can be <literal>disk</literal> or <literal>partition</literal>
+ </para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_device_get_devname()</function> returns the device node path of the specified device
+ record if the device has a device node. Example: for <filename>/sys/devices/virtual/tty/tty7</filename>
+ the string <filename>/dev/tty7</filename> is typically returned.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_device_get_devnum()</function> returns the device node major/minor
+ (i.e. <type>dev_t</type>) of the specified device record if the device has a device node (i.e. the one
+ returned by <function>sd_device_get_devname()</function>). For devices belonging to the
+ <literal>block</literal> subsystem this refers to a block device node, in all other cases to a character
+ device node. Example: for the <filename>/sys/devices/virtual/tty/tty7</filename> device this typically
+ returns the device number with major/minor <literal>4:7</literal>.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_device_get_ifindex()</function> returns the network interface index of the specified
+ device record, if the device encapsulates a network interface device, i.e. belongs to the
+ <literal>net</literal> subsystem. Example: the <literal>lo</literal> interface typically has interface
+ index 1.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_device_get_driver()</function> returns the kernel driver name attached to the
+ device. Note that the driver field is set on the devices consumed by the driver, not on the device
+ created by it. Example: a PCI device <filename>/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:1f.6</filename> might be
+ attached to a driver <literal>e1000e</literal>.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_device_get_diskseq()</function> returns the kernel disk sequence number of the block
+ device. This number monotonically increases whenever a backing medium of a block device changes without
+ the device name changing, and is relevant for block devices encapsulating devices with changing media
+ (e.g. floppy or CD-ROM), or loopback block devices. Only defined for block devices, i.e. those of
+ subsystem <literal>block</literal>.</para>

+ <title>Return Value</title>
+
+ <para>On success, these calls return 0 or a positive integer. On failure, they return a negative
+ errno-style error code.</para>

+ <refsect2>
+ <title>Errors</title>
+
+ <para>Returned errors may indicate the following problems:</para>

+ <listitem><para>A specified parameter is invalid.</para></listitem>
