<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_bus_set_watch_bind()</function> may be used to enable or disable client-side watching of server
|
|
socket binding for a bus connection object. If the <parameter>b</parameter> is true, the feature is enabled,
|
|
otherwise disabled (which is the default). When enabled, and the selected bus address refers to an
|
|
<filename>AF_UNIX</filename> socket in the file system which does not exist while the connection attempt is made an
|
|
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>inotify</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> watch is installed on
|
|
it, waiting for the socket to appear. As soon as the socket appears the connection is made. This functionality is
|
|
useful in particular in early-boot programs that need to run before the system bus is available, but want to
|
|
connect to it the instant it may be connected to.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_bus_get_watch_bind()</function> may be used to query the current setting of this feature. It
|
|
returns zero when the feature is disabled, and positive if enabled.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that no timeout is applied while we wait for the socket to appear. This means that any
|
|
synchronous remote operation (such as
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_call</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_add_match</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> or
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_request_name</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>),
|
|
that is used on a connection with this feature enabled that hasn't been established yet, might block
|
|
forever if the socket is never created. However, asynchronous remote operations (such as
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_send</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_call_async</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_add_match_async</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>)
|
|
do not block in this case, and safely enqueue the requested operations to be dispatched the instant the
|
|
connection is set up.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Use <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_is_ready</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> to
|
|
determine whether the connection is fully established, i.e. whether the peer socket has been bound, connected to
|
|
and authenticated. Use
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_set_connected_signal</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> to
|
|
be notified when the connection is fully established.</para>
