<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_event_set_watchdog()</function> may be used to
enable or disable automatic watchdog notification support in the
event loop object specified in the <parameter>event</parameter>
parameter. Specifically, depending on the <parameter>b</parameter>
boolean argument this will make sure the event loop wakes up in
regular intervals and sends watchdog notification messages to the
service manager, if this was requested by the service
manager. Watchdog support is determined with
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_watchdog_enabled</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
and watchdog messages are sent with
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_notify</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. See
the <varname>WatchdogSec=</varname> setting in
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for details on how to enable watchdog support for a service and
the protocol used. The wake-up interval is chosen as half the
watchdog timeout declared by the service manager via the
<varname>$WATCHDOG_USEC</varname> environment variable. If the
service manager did not request watchdog notifications, or if the
process was not invoked by the service manager this call with a
true <parameter>b</parameter> parameter executes no
operation. Passing a false <parameter>b</parameter> parameter will
disable the automatic sending of watchdog notification messages if
it was enabled before. Newly allocated event loop objects have
this feature disabled.</para>
<para>The first watchdog notification message is sent immediately
when <function>set_event_set_watchdog()</function> is invoked with
a true <parameter>b</parameter> parameter.</para>
<para>The watchdog logic is designed to allow the service manager
to automatically detect services that ceased processing of
incoming events, and thus appear "hung". Watchdog notifications
are sent out only at the beginning of each event loop
iteration. If an event source dispatch function blocks for an
excessively long time and does not return execution to the event
loop quickly, this might hence cause the notification message to
be delayed, and possibly result in abnormal program termination,
as configured in the service unit file.</para>
<para><function>sd_event_get_watchdog()</function> may be used to
determine whether watchdog support was previously requested by a
call to <function>sd_event_set_watchdog()</function> with a true
<parameter>b</parameter> parameter and successfully
enabled.</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<title>Return Value</title>
<para>On success, <function>sd_event_set_watchdog()</function> and
<function>sd_event_get_watchdog()</function> return a non-zero
positive integer if the service manager requested watchdog support
and watchdog support was successfully enabled. They return zero if
the service manager did not request watchdog support, or if
watchdog support was explicitly disabled with a false
<parameter>b</parameter> parameter. On failure, they return a
negative errno-style error
code.</para>
