queries the journal for all unique values the
specified field can take. It takes two arguments: the
journal to query and the field name to look
for. Well-known field names are listed on
<a href="systemd.journal-fields.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">systemd.journal-fields</span>(7)</span></a>. Field
names must be specified without a trailing '='. After
this function has been executed successfully the field
values may be queried using
<code class="function">sd_journal_enumerate_unique()</code>. Invoking
this call a second time will change the field name
being queried and reset the enumeration index to the
first field value that matches.</p><p><code class="function">sd_journal_enumerate_unique()</code>
may be used to iterate through all data fields which
match the previously selected field name as set with
<code class="function">sd_journal_query_unique()</code>. On
each invocation the next field data matching the field
name is returned. The order of the returned data
fields is not defined. It takes three arguments: the
journal context object, plus a pair of pointers to
pointer/size variables where the data object and its
size shall be stored in. The returned data is in a
read-only memory map and is only valid until the next
invocation of
<code class="function">sd_journal_enumerate_unique()</code>. Note
that the data returned will be prefixed with the field
name and '='. Note that this call is subject to the
data field size threshold as controlled by
<code class="function">sd_journal_set_data_threshold()</code>.</p><p><code class="function">sd_journal_restart_unique()</code>
resets the data enumeration index to the beginning of
the list. The next invocation of
<code class="function">sd_journal_enumerate_unique()</code>
will return the first field data matching the field
name again.</p><p>Note that the
<code class="function">SD_JOURNAL_FOREACH_UNIQUE()</code> macro
may be used as a handy wrapper around
<code class="function">sd_journal_restart_unique()</code> and
<code class="function">sd_journal_enumerate_unique()</code>.</p><p>Note that these functions currently are not
influenced by matches set with
<code class="function">sd_journal_add_match()</code> but this
might change in a later version of this
software.</p></div><div class="refsect1"><a name="idm259782890000"></a><h2 id="Return Value">Return Value<a class="headerlink" title="Permalink to this headline" href="#Return%20Value"></a></h2><p><code class="function">sd_journal_query_unique()</code>
