    <title>Description</title>

    <para><function>sd_event_exit()</function> requests the event loop
    specified in the <parameter>event</parameter> event loop object to
    exit. The <parameter>code</parameter> parameter may be any integer
    value and is returned as-is by
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_loop</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
    after the last event loop iteration. It may also be queried
    using <function>sd_event_get_exit_code()</function>, see
    below. </para>

    <para>When exiting is requested the event loop will stop listening
    for and dispatching regular event sources. Instead it will proceed
    with executing only event sources registered with
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_add_exit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
    in the order defined by their priority. After all exit event
    sources have been dispatched the event loop is terminated.</para>

    <para>If <function>sd_event_exit()</function> is invoked a second
    time while the event loop is still processing exit event sources,
    the exit code stored in the event loop object is updated, but
    otherwise no further operation is executed.</para>

    <para><function>sd_event_get_exit_code()</function> may be used to
    query the exit code passed into
    <function>sd_event_exit()</function> earlier.</para>

    <para>While the full positive and negative integer ranges may be used
    for the exit code, care should be taken not pick exit codes that
    conflict with regular exit codes returned by
    <function>sd_event_loop()</function>, if these exit codes shall be
    distinguishable.</para>

    <title>Return Value</title>

    <para>On success, <function>sd_event_exit()</function> and
    <function>sd_event_get_exit_code()</function> return 0 or a positive
    integer. On failure, they return a negative errno-style error
    code.</para>
