.SH "NAME" udev_monitor_receive_device, udev_monitor_enable_receiving, udev_monitor_set_receive_buffer_size, udev_monitor_get_fd, udev_monitor_get_udev - Query and modify device monitor

.SH "SYNOPSIS"

#include <libudev.h>

.HP 1152u struct udev_device *udev_monitor_receive_device(struct udev_monitor *udev_monitor);

.HP 816u int udev_monitor_enable_receiving(struct udev_monitor *udev_monitor);

.HP 984u int udev_monitor_set_receive_buffer_size(struct udev_monitor *udev_monitor, int size);

.HP 576u int udev_monitor_get_fd(struct udev_monitor *udev_monitor);

.HP 840u struct udev *udev_monitor_get_udev(struct udev_monitor *udev_monitor);

.SH "RETURN VALUE"

.PP On success, udev_monitor_receive_device() returns a pointer to a newly referenced device that was received via the monitor. The caller is responsible to drop this reference when done. On failure, NULL is returned.

.PP On success, udev_monitor_enable_receiving() and udev_monitor_set_receive_buffer_size() return an integer greater than, or equal to, 0. On failure, a negative error code is returned.

.PP On success, udev_monitor_get_fd() returns the file descriptor used by this monitor. On failure, a negative error code is returned.

.PP udev_monitor_get_udev() always returns a pointer to the udev context that this monitor is associated with.

.SH "HISTORY"

.PP udev_monitor_receive_device(), udev_monitor_enable_receiving(), udev_monitor_set_receive_buffer_size(), udev_monitor_get_fd(), and udev_monitor_get_udev() were added in version 221.
