<title>Description</title>
- <para><function>sd_journal_get_data()</function> gets the data
- object associated with a specific field from the current journal
- entry. It takes four arguments: the journal context object, a
- string with the field name to request, plus a pair of pointers to
- pointer/size variables where the data object and its size shall be
- stored in. The field name should be an entry field name.
- Well-known field names are listed in
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.journal-fields</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
- The returned data is in a read-only memory map and is only valid
- until the next invocation of
- <function>sd_journal_get_data()</function> or
- <function>sd_journal_enumerate_data()</function>, or the read
- pointer is altered. Note that the data returned will be prefixed
- with the field name and '='. Also note that, by default, data fields
- larger than 64K might get truncated to 64K. This threshold may be
- changed and turned off with
- <function>sd_journal_set_data_threshold()</function> (see
- below).</para>

<para><function>sd_journal_enumerate_data()</function> may be used
to iterate through all fields of the current entry. On each
format as with <function>sd_journal_get_data()</function> and also
follows the same life-time semantics.</para>
+ <para><function>sd_journal_enumerate_available_data()</function> is similar to
+ <function>sd_journal_enumerate_data()</function>, but silently skips any fields which may be valid, but
+ are too large or not supported by current implementation.</para>
+
<para><function>sd_journal_restart_data()</function> resets the
data enumeration index to the beginning of the entry. The next
invocation of <function>sd_journal_enumerate_data()</function>
will return the first field of the entry again.</para>
- <para>Note that the <function>SD_JOURNAL_FOREACH_DATA()</function>
- macro may be used as a handy wrapper around
- <function>sd_journal_restart_data()</function> and

<title>Return Value</title>
- <para><function>sd_journal_get_data()</function> returns 0 on
- success or a negative errno-style error code. If the current entry
- does not include the specified field, -ENOENT is returned. If
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_next</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- has not been called at least once, -EADDRNOTAVAIL is returned.
- <function>sd_journal_enumerate_data()</function> returns a
- positive integer if the next field has been read, 0 when no more
- fields are known, or a negative errno-style error code.
- <function>sd_journal_restart_data()</function> returns nothing.
