- <para><function>sd_pid_get_session()</function> may be
- used to determine the login session identifier of a
- process identified by the specified process
- identifier. The session identifier is a short string,
- suitable for usage in file system paths. Note that not
- all processes are part of a login session (e.g. system
- service processes, user processes that are shared
- between multiple sessions of the same user, or kernel
- threads). For processes not being part of a login
- session this function will fail. The returned string
- needs to be freed with the libc

-
- <para><function>sd_pid_get_unit()</function> may be
- used to determine the systemd unit (i.e. system
- service) identifier of a process identified by the
- specified process identifier. The unit name is a short
- string, suitable for usage in file system paths. Note
- that not all processes are part of a unit/service
- (e.g. user processes, or kernel threads). For
- processes not being part of a systemd unit/system
- service this function will fail. The returned string

-
- <para><function>sd_pid_get_owner_uid()</function> may
- be used to determine the Unix user identifier of the
- owner of the session of a process identified the
- specified PID. Note that this function will succeed
- for user processes which are shared between multiple
- login sessions of the same user, where
- <function>sd_pid_get_session()</function> will
- fail. For processes not being part of a login session
- and not being a shared process of a user this function
