<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_event_get_fd()</function> returns the file
descriptor that the event loop object returned by the
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_new</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
function uses to wait for events. This file descriptor can be
polled for events. This makes it possible to embed the
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd-event</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
event loop inside of another event loop.</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<title>Return Value</title>
<para>On success, <function>sd_event_get_fd()</function> returns a
non-negative integer. On failure, it returns a negative
errno-style error code.</para>
