+    all currently available local seats. Returns a

+    The returned array and all strings it references need to be freed
+    with the libc
+    <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+    call after use. Note that instead of an empty array
+    <constant>NULL</constant> may be returned and should be considered

+
+    <para>Similarly, <function>sd_get_sessions()</function> may be

+    determine all Unix users who currently have login sessions.</para>
+
+    <para>Similarly, <function>sd_get_machine_names()</function> may
+    be used to determine all current virtual machines and containers
