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="idm140488051997008"></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> returns 0 on
