.SH "NAME"
sd_bus_new, sd_bus_ref, sd_bus_unref \- Create a new bus object and create or destroy references to it
.SH "SYNOPSIS"

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBsd_bus_new()\fR
creates a new bus object\&. This object is reference\-counted, and will be destroyed when all references are gone\&. Initially, the caller of this function owns the sole reference\&.
.PP
\fBsd_bus_ref()\fR
creates a new reference to
\fIbus\fR\&. This bus object will not be destroyed until
\fBsd_bus_unref()\fR
has been called as many times plus once more\&. Once the reference count has dropped to zero,
\fIbus\fR
cannot be used anymore, so further calls to
\fBsd_bus_ref()\fR
or
\fBsd_bus_unref()\fR
are illegal\&.
.PP
\fBsd_bus_unref()\fR
destroys a reference to
\fIbus\fR\&.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.PP
On success,
\fBsd_bus_new()\fR
returns 0 or a positive integer\&. On failure, it returns a negative errno\-style error code\&.
.PP
\fBsd_bus_ref\fR
always returns the argument\&.
.PP
\fBsd_bus_unref\fR
always returns
\fBNULL\fR\&.
.SH "ERRORS"
.PP
Returned errors may indicate the following problems:
.PP
\fB\-ENOMEM\fR
.RS 4
Memory allocation failed\&.
.RE
.SH "NOTES"
.PP
\fBsd_bus_new()\fR
and other functions described here are available as a shared library, which can be compiled and linked to with the
\fBlibsystemd\fR\ \&\fBpkg-config\fR(1)
file\&.
