    <title>Description</title>

    <para><function>sd_get_seats()</function> may be used to determine
    all currently available local seats. Returns the number of seat
    identifiers and if the input pointer is non-NULL, a
    <constant>NULL</constant>-terminated array of seat identifiers
    is stored at the address.
    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
    equivalent to an empty array.</para>

    <para>Similarly, <function>sd_get_sessions()</function> may be
    used to determine all current login sessions.</para>

    <para>Similarly, <function>sd_get_uids()</function> may be used to
    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
    on the system.</para>

    <para>Note that the returned lists are not sorted and in an
    undefined order.</para>
  </refsect1>

  <refsect1>
    <title>Return Value</title>

    <para>On success, <function>sd_get_seats()</function>,
    <function>sd_get_sessions()</function>,
    <function>sd_get_uids()</function> and
    <function>sd_get_machine_names()</function> return the number of
    entries in the arrays. On failure, these calls return a negative
    errno-style error code.</para>
  </refsect1>

  <refsect1>
    <title>Errors</title>

    <para>Returned errors may indicate the following problems:</para>

    <variablelist>

      <varlistentry>
        <term><constant>-ENOMEM</constant></term>

        <listitem><para>Memory allocation failed.</para></listitem>
