sd_varlink_set_relative_timeout - Man Page

#include <systemd/sd-varlink.h>

int sd_varlink_set_relative_timeout(sd_varlink *link, uint64_t usec);

sd_varlink_set_relative_timeout() sets the relative timeout in µs to enforce on Varlink method calls. A default time-out of 45s (currently) applies, which may be changed with this call. Set to UINT64_MAX to disable the time-out, and to 0 to revert to revert back to the default time-out. The time-out begins whenever a method call is started, and if no response is received by the time the time-out elapses a synthetic io.systemd.TimedOut error is raised as client-generated reply to the method call.

This call is particularly useful for method calls issued via sd_varlink_observe() that shall remain open continuously for a long time.

On success, sd_varlink_set_relative_timeout() returns a non-negative integer. On failure, it returns a negative errno-style error code.

Functions described here are available as a shared library, which can be compiled against and linked to with the libsystemd pkg-config(1) file.

The code described here uses getenv(3), which is declared to be not multi-thread-safe. This means that the code calling the functions described here must not call setenv(3) from a parallel thread. It is recommended to only do calls to setenv() from an early phase of the program when no other threads have been started.

sd_varlink_set_relative_timeout() was added in version 257.
