Description¶

The sd_device_enumerator_get_device_first() function enumerates all matching devices under /sys/bus/SUBSYSTEM/devices/ and /sys/class/SUBSYSTEM/devices/, and returns a pointer to the first sd_device object. If no devices are found, NULL is returned.

The sd_device_enumerator_get_device_next() function returns the pointer to the next sd_device from the enumerator. It should be called after sd_device_enumerator_get_device_first() or after a previous call to this function. If no more devices are available, NULL is returned.

The sd_device_enumerator_get_subsystem_first() function enumerates all matching subsystem devices in /sys/module/, /sys/bus/, and /sys/bus/SUBSYSTEM/drivers/ (such as /sys/bus/pci/drivers/). It returns a pointer to the first sd_device object. If no devices are found NULL is returned. Note that this does not enumerate devices provided by sd_device_enumerator_get_device_first/next(). Hence, e.g. /sys/bus/pci/, /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ahci/ and so on are enumerated, but /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:00.0/ and so on are not.

The sd_device_enumerator_get_subsystem_next() function returns the next subsystem device from the enumerator. It should be called after sd_device_enumerator_get_subsystem_first() or after a previous call to this function. If no more subsystem devices are available, NULL is returned.

Return Value¶

On success, these functions return a pointer to an sd_device object. On failure or when no more devices are available, NULL is returned. The returned pointers are owned by the enumerator and should not be freed by the caller.

History¶

sd_device_enumerator_get_device_first(), sd_device_enumerator_get_device_next(), sd_device_enumerator_get_subsystem_first(), and sd_device_enumerator_get_subsystem_next() were introduced in systemd version 240.
