    <title>Description</title>

    <para><function>sd_event_source_get_pending()</function> may be
    used to determine whether the event source object specified as
    <parameter>source</parameter> has seen events but has not been
    dispatched yet (and thus is marked "pending").</para>

    <para>Event source objects initially are not marked pending, when
    they are created with calls such as
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_add_io</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_add_time</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
    with the exception of those created with
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_add_defer</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
    which are immediately marked pending, and
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_add_exit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
    for which the "pending" concept is not defined. For details see
    the respective manual pages.</para>

    <para>In each event loop iteration one event source of those
    marked pending is dispatched, in the order defined by the event
    source priority, as set with
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_source_set_priority</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>

    <para>For I/O event sources, as created with
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_add_io</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
    the call
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_source_get_io_revents</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
    may be used to query the type of event pending in more
    detail.</para>

    <title>Return Value</title>

    <para>On success,
    <function>sd_event_source_get_pending()</function> returns an
    integer greater than zero when the event source is marked pending,
    and zero when the event source is not marked pending. On failure,
    it returns a negative errno-style error code.</para>
