61 | ||
62 | <para><function>sd_event_source_unref()</function> may be used to | |
63 | decrement by one the reference counter of the event source object | |
64 | specified as <parameter>source</parameter>. The reference counter | |
65 | is initially set to one, when the event source is created with calls | |
66 | such as | |
67 | <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_add_io</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> | |
68 | or | |
69 | <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_add_time</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. When | |
70 | the reference counter reaches zero it is removed from its event loop | |
71 | object and destroyed.</para> | |

73 | <para><function>sd_event_source_unrefp()</function> is similar to |
74 | <function>sd_event_source_unref()</function> but takes a pointer to a | |
75 | pointer to an <type>sd_event_source</type> object. This call is useful in | |
76 | conjunction with GCC's and LLVM's <ulink | |
77 | url="https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Common-Variable-Attributes.html">Clean-up | |
78 | Variable Attribute</ulink>. Note that this function is defined as | |
79 | inline function.</para> | |

81 | <para><function>sd_event_source_ref()</function> may be used |
82 | to increase by one the reference counter of the event source object | |

85 | <para><function>sd_event_source_unref()</function>, |
86 | <function>sd_bus_creds_unrefp()</function> and | |

88 | the passed event source object is | |
89 | <constant>NULL</constant>.</para> | |

91 | <para>Note that event source objects stay alive and may be dispatched as long as they have a reference |
92 | counter greater than zero. In order to drop a reference of an event source and make sure the associated | |
93 | event source handler function is not called anymore it is recommended to combine a call of | |
dc83f27a | 94 | <function>sd_event_source_unref()</function> with a prior call to |
afd15bbb ZJS |
95 | <function>sd_event_source_set_enabled()</function> with <constant>SD_EVENT_OFF</constant> or call |
96 | <function>sd_event_source_disable_unref()</function>, see below.</para> | |
97 | ||
98 | <para><function>sd_event_source_disable_unref()</function> combines a call to | |
99 | <function>sd_event_source_set_enabled()</function> with <constant>SD_EVENT_OFF</constant> with | |
100 | <function>sd_event_source_unref()</function>. This ensures that the source is disabled before the local | |
101 | reference to it is lost. The <parameter>source</parameter> parameter is allowed to be | |
102 | <constant>NULL</constant>.</para> | |

103 | |
104 | <para><function>sd_event_source_disable_unrefp()</function> is similar to | |
105 | <function>sd_event_source_unrefp()</function>, but in addition disables the source first. This call is | |
106 | useful in conjunction with GCC's and LLVM's | |
107 | <ulink url="https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Common-Variable-Attributes.html">Clean-up Variable | |
108 | Attribute</ulink>. Note that this function is defined as inline function.</para> | |
