    <title>Description</title>

    <para><function>sd_event_get_fd()</function> returns the file
    descriptor that the event loop object returned by the
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_new</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
    function uses to wait for events. This file descriptor can be
    polled for events. This makes it possible to embed the
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd-event</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
    event loop inside of another event loop.</para>
  </refsect1>

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

    <para>On success, <function>sd_event_get_fd()</function> returns a
    non-negative integer. On failure, it returns a negative
    errno-style error code.</para>
