.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
The functions
\fBsd_bus_message_append_string_memfd\fR
and
\fBsd_bus_message_append_string_iovec\fR
can be used to append a single string (item of type
"s") to message
\fIm\fR\&.
.PP
In case of
\fBsd_bus_message_append_string_memfd\fR, the contents of
\fImemfd\fR
are the string\&. They must satisfy the same constraints as described for the
"s"
type in
\fBsd_bus_message_append_basic\fR(3)\&.
.PP
In case of
\fBsd_bus_message_append_string_iovec\fR, the payload of
\fIiov\fR
is the string\&. It must satisfy the same constraints as described for the
"s"
type in
\fBsd_bus_message_append_basic\fR(3)\&.
.PP
The
\fIiov\fR
argument must point to
\fIn\fRstruct iovec
structures\&. Each structure may have the
iov_base
field set, in which case the memory pointed to will be copied into the message, or unset, in which case a block of spaces (ASCII 32) of length
iov_len
will be inserted\&. The memory pointed at by
\fIiov\fR
may be changed after this call\&.
.PP
The
\fBsd_bus_message_append_string_space\fR
function appends space for a string to message
\fIm\fR\&. It behaves similar to
\fBsd_bus_message_append_basic\fR
with type
"s", but instead of copying a string into the message, it returns a pointer to the destination area to the caller in pointer
\fIp\fR\&. Space for the string of length
\fIsize\fR
plus the terminating
\fBNUL\fR
is allocated\&.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.PP
On success, those calls return 0 or a positive integer\&. On failure, they returns a negative errno\-style error code\&.
.SH "ERRORS"
.PP
Returned errors may indicate the following problems:
.PP
\fB\-EINVAL\fR
.RS 4
Specified parameter is invalid\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-EPERM\fR
.RS 4
Message has been sealed\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-ESTALE\fR
.RS 4
Message is in invalid state\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-ENXIO\fR
.RS 4
Message cannot be appended to\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-ENOMEM\fR
.RS 4
Memory allocation failed\&.

.SH "NOTES"
.PP
The functions described here are available as a shared library, which can be compiled and linked to with the
\fBlibsystemd\fR\ \&\fBpkg-config\fR(1)
