<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_event_get_fd()</function> returns the file
descriptor that an 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 may itself
be polled for
<constant>POLLIN</constant>/<constant>EPOLLIN</constant>
events. This makes it possible to embed an
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd-event</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
event loop into another, possibly foreign, event loop.</para>
<para>The returned file descriptor refers to an <citerefentry
project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>epoll</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>
object. It is recommended not to alter it by invoking
<citerefentry
project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>epoll_ctl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>
on it, in order to avoid interference with the event loop's inner
logic and assumptions.</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<title>Return Value</title>
<para>On success, <function>sd_event_get_fd()</function> returns a non-negative file descriptor. On
failure, it returns a negative errno-style error code.</para>
<refsect2>
<title>Errors</title>
<para>Returned errors may indicate the following problems:</para>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term><constant>-EINVAL</constant></term>
<listitem><para><parameter>event</parameter> is not a valid pointer to an
<structname>sd_event</structname> structure.</para></listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><constant>-ECHILD</constant></term>
<listitem><para>The event loop has been created in a different process.</para></listitem>
