be called by a service to detect whether the service
manager expects regular keep-alive watchdog
notification events from it, and the timeout after
which the manager will act on the service if it did
not get such a notification.</p><p>If the <em class="parameter"><code>unset_environment</code></em>
parameter is non-zero,
<code class="function">sd_watchdog_enabled()</code> will unset
the <code class="varname">$WATCHDOG_USEC</code> and
<code class="varname">$WATCHDOG_PID</code> environment variables
before returning (regardless of whether the function call
itself succeeded or not). Further calls to
<code class="function">sd_watchdog_enabled()</code> will then
return with zero, but the variable is no longer
inherited by child processes.</p><p>If the <em class="parameter"><code>usec</code></em> parameter is
non-NULL, <code class="function">sd_watchdog_enabled()</code>
will return the timeout in µs for the watchdog
logic. The service manager will usually terminate a
service when it did not get a notification message
within the specified time after startup and after each
previous message. It is recommended that a daemon
sends a keep-alive notification message to the service
manager every half of the time returned
here. Notification messages may be sent with
<a href="sd_notify.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">sd_notify</span>(3)</span></a>
with a message string of
"<code class="literal">WATCHDOG=1</code>".</p><p>To enable service supervision with the watchdog
logic, use <code class="varname">WatchdogSec=</code> in service
files. See
<a href="systemd.service.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">systemd.service</span>(5)</span></a>

errno-style error code. If the service manager expects
watchdog keep-alive notification messages to be sent,
&gt; 0 is returned, otherwise 0 is returned. Only if
the return value is &gt; 0, the
<em class="parameter"><code>usec</code></em> parameter is valid after
the call.</p></div><div class="refsect1"><a name="idm214190410576"></a><h2 id="Notes">Notes<a class="headerlink" title="Permalink to this headline" href="#Notes"></a></h2><p><a name="pkgconfig-text"></a>These APIs are implemented as a shared
