NAME         top

       sd-device - API for enumerating and introspecting local devices

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <systemd/sd-device.h>

       pkg-config --cflags --libs libsystemd

DESCRIPTION         top

       sd-device.h provides an API to introspect and enumerate devices
       on the local system. It provides a programmatic interface to the
       database of devices and their properties mananaged by
       systemd-udevd.service(8). This API is a replacement for
       libudev(3) and libudev.h.

       See

           sd_device_get_syspath(3),
           sd_device_ref(3)

       for more information about the functions available.

NOTES         top

       These APIs are implemented as a shared library, which can be
       compiled and linked to with the libsystemd pkg-config(1) file.
