<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_is_fifo()</function> may be called to check
whether the specified file descriptor refers to a FIFO or pipe. If
the <parameter>path</parameter> parameter is not
<constant>NULL</constant>, it is checked whether the FIFO is bound
to the specified file system path.</para>
<para><function>sd_is_socket()</function> may be called to check
whether the specified file descriptor refers to a socket. If the
<parameter>family</parameter> parameter is not
<constant>AF_UNSPEC</constant>, it is checked whether the socket
is of the specified family (<constant>AF_UNIX</constant>,
<constant>AF_INET</constant>, ...). If the <parameter>type</parameter>
parameter is not 0, it is checked whether the socket is of the
specified type (<constant>SOCK_STREAM</constant>,
<constant>SOCK_DGRAM</constant>, ...). If the
<parameter>listening</parameter> parameter is positive, it is
checked whether the socket is in accepting mode, i.e.
<function>listen()</function> has been called for it. If
<parameter>listening</parameter> is 0, it is checked whether the
socket is not in this mode. If the parameter is negative, no such
check is made. The <parameter>listening</parameter> parameter
should only be used for stream sockets and should be set to a
negative value otherwise.</para>
<para><function>sd_is_socket_inet()</function> is similar to
<function>sd_is_socket()</function>, but optionally checks the
IPv4 or IPv6 port number the socket is bound to, unless
<parameter>port</parameter> is zero. For this call
<parameter>family</parameter> must be passed as either
<constant>AF_UNSPEC</constant>, <constant>AF_INET</constant>, or
<constant>AF_INET6</constant>.</para>
<para><function>sd_is_socket_unix()</function> is similar to
<function>sd_is_socket()</function> but optionally checks the
<constant>AF_UNIX</constant> path the socket is bound to, unless
the <parameter>path</parameter> parameter is
<constant>NULL</constant>. For normal file system
<constant>AF_UNIX</constant> sockets, set the
<parameter>length</parameter> parameter to 0. For Linux abstract
namespace sockets, set the <parameter>length</parameter> to the
size of the address, including the initial 0 byte, and set the
<parameter>path</parameter> to the initial 0 byte of the socket
address.</para>
<para><function>sd_is_mq()</function> may be called to check
whether the specified file descriptor refers to a POSIX message
queue. If the <parameter>path</parameter> parameter is not
<constant>NULL</constant>, it is checked whether the message queue
is bound to the specified name.</para>
<para><function>sd_is_special()</function> may be called to check
whether the specified file descriptor refers to a special file. If
the <parameter>path</parameter> parameter is not
<constant>NULL</constant>, it is checked whether the file
descriptor is bound to the specified file name. Special files in
this context are character device nodes and files in
<filename>/proc</filename> or <filename>/sys</filename>.</para>

<title>Return Value</title>
<para>On failure, these calls return a negative errno-style error
code. If the file descriptor is of the specified type and bound to
the specified address, a positive return value is returned,
otherwise zero.</para>
</refsect1>

<title>Notes</title>
<xi:include href="libsystemd-pkgconfig.xml" xpointer="pkgconfig-text"/>
<para>Internally, these function use a combination of
<filename>fstat()</filename> and
<filename>getsockname()</filename> to check the file descriptor
type and where it is bound to.</para>
