-                <para><function>sd_login_monitor_new()</function> may
-                be used to monitor login sessions, users and seats. Via
-                a monitor object a file descriptor can be integrated
-                into an application defined event loop which is woken
-                up each time a user logs in, logs out or a seat is
-                added or removed, or a session, user, or seat changes
-                state otherwise. The first parameter takes a string
-                which can be <literal>seat</literal> (to get
-                only notifications about seats being added, removed or
-                changed), <literal>session</literal> (to get only
-                notifications about sessions being created or removed
-                or changed) or <literal>uid</literal> (to get only
-                notifications when a user changes state in respect to
-                logins). If notifications shall be generated in all
-                these conditions, NULL may be passed. Note that in the
-                future additional categories may be defined. The
-                second parameter returns a monitor object and needs to
-                be freed with the
-                <function>sd_login_monitor_unref()</function> call
-                after use.</para>
-
-                <para><function>sd_login_monitor_unref()</function>
-                may be used to destroy a monitor object. Note that

-                function needs to be called to reset the wake-up

+
+    <para><function>sd_login_monitor_new()</function> may be used to
+    monitor login sessions, users, seats, and virtual
+    machines/containers. Via a monitor object a file descriptor can be
+    integrated into an application defined event loop which is woken
+    up each time a user logs in, logs out or a seat is added or
+    removed, or a session, user, seat or virtual machine/container
+    changes state otherwise. The first parameter takes a string which
+    can be <literal>seat</literal> (to get only notifications about
+    seats being added, removed or changed), <literal>session</literal>
+    (to get only notifications about sessions being created or removed
+    or changed), <literal>uid</literal> (to get only notifications
+    when a user changes state in respect to logins) or
+    <literal>machine</literal> (to get only notifications when a
+    virtual machine or container is started or stopped). If
+    notifications shall be generated in all these conditions,
+    <constant>NULL</constant> may be passed. Note that in the future
+    additional categories may be defined. The second parameter returns
+    a monitor object and needs to be freed with the
+    <function>sd_login_monitor_unref()</function> call after
+    use.</para>
+
+    <para><function>sd_login_monitor_unref()</function> may be used to
+    destroy a monitor object. Note that this will invalidate any file
+    descriptor returned by
+    <function>sd_login_monitor_get_fd()</function>.</para>
+
+    <para><function>sd_login_monitor_flush()</function> may be used to
+    reset the wakeup state of the monitor object. Whenever an event
+    causes the monitor to wake up the event loop via the file
+    descriptor this function needs to be called to reset the wake-up
+    state. If this call is not invoked, the file descriptor will
+    immediately wake up the event loop again.</para>
+
+    <para><function>sd_login_monitor_get_fd()</function> may be used
+    to retrieve the file descriptor of the monitor object that may be
+    integrated in an application defined event loop, based around
+    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>poll</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+    or a similar interface. The application should include the
+    returned file descriptor as wake-up source for the events mask
+    returned by <function>sd_login_monitor_get_events()</function>. It
+    should pass a timeout value as returned by
+    <function>sd_login_monitor_get_timeout()</function>. Whenever a
+    wake-up is triggered the file descriptor needs to be reset via
+    <function>sd_login_monitor_flush()</function>. An application
+    needs to reread the login state with a function like
+    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_get_seats</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+    or similar to determine what changed.</para>
+
+    <para><function>sd_login_monitor_get_events()</function> will
+    return the <function>poll()</function> mask to wait for. This
+    function will return a combination of <constant>POLLIN</constant>,
+    <constant>POLLOUT</constant> and similar to fill into the
+    <literal>.events</literal> field of <varname>struct
+    pollfd</varname>.</para>
+
+    <para><function>sd_login_monitor_get_timeout()</function> will
+    return a timeout value for usage in <function>poll()</function>.
+    This returns a value in microseconds since the epoch of
+    <constant>CLOCK_MONOTONIC</constant> for timing out
+    <function>poll()</function> in <varname>timeout_usec</varname>.
+    See
+    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>clock_gettime</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+    for details about <constant>CLOCK_MONOTONIC</constant>. If there
+    is no timeout to wait for this will fill in <constant>(uint64_t)
+    -1</constant> instead. Note that <function>poll()</function> takes
+    a relative timeout in milliseconds rather than an absolute timeout
+    in microseconds. To convert the absolute 'us' timeout into
+    relative 'ms', use code like the following:</para>
+
+    <programlisting>uint64_t t;
+int msec;
+sd_login_monitor_get_timeout(m, &amp;t);
+if (t == (uint64_t) -1)
+  msec = -1;
+else {
+  struct timespec ts;
+  uint64_t n;
+  clock_getttime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &amp;ts);
+  n = (uint64_t) ts.tv_sec * 1000000 + ts.tv_nsec / 1000;
+  msec = t > n ? (int) ((t - n + 999) / 1000) : 0;
+}</programlisting>
+
+    <para>The code above does not do any error checking for brevity's
+    sake. The calculated <varname>msec</varname> integer can be passed
+    directly as <function>poll()</function>'s timeout
+    parameter.</para>
