-                the data object associated with a specific field from
-                the current journal entry. It takes four arguments:
-                the journal context object, a string with the field
-                name to request, plus a pair of pointers to
-                pointer/size variables where the data object and its
-                size shall be stored in. The field name should be an
-                entry field name. Well-known field names are listed in
-                <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.journal-fields</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>. The

+    Well-known field names are listed in

+    until the next invocation of
+    <function>sd_journal_get_data()</function> or
+    <function>sd_journal_enumerate_data()</function>, or the read
+    pointer is altered. Note that the data returned will be prefixed
+    with the field name and '='. Also note that by default data fields
+    larger than 64K might get truncated to 64K. This threshold may be
+    changed and turned off with
+    <function>sd_journal_set_data_threshold()</function> (see
+    below).</para>
+
+    <para><function>sd_journal_enumerate_data()</function> may be used

+    <function>sd_journal_enumerate_data()</function> and
+    <function>sd_journal_enumerate_unique()</function>. This threshold
+    is a hint only: it indicates that the client program is interested
+    only in the initial parts of the data fields, up to the threshold
+    in size -- but the library might still return larger data objects.
+    That means applications should not rely exclusively on this
+    setting to limit the size of the data fields returned, but need to
+    apply a explicit size limit on the returned data as well. This
+    threshold defaults to 64K by default. To retrieve the complete
+    data fields this threshold should be turned off by setting it to
+    0, so that the library always returns the complete data objects.
+    It is recommended to set this threshold as low as possible since
+    this relieves the library from having to decompress large
+    compressed data objects in full.</para>
