                <para><function>sd_get_seats()</function> may be used
                to determine all currently available local
                seats. Returns a NULL terminated array of seat
                identifiers. The returned array and all strings it
                references need to be freed with the libc
                <citerefentry><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
                call after use. Note that instead of an empty array
                NULL may be returned and should be considered
                equivalent to an empty array.</para>

                <para>Similar, <function>sd_get_sessions()</function> may
                be used to determine all current login sessions.</para>

                <para>Similar, <function>sd_get_uids()</function> may
                be used to determine all Unix users who currently have login sessions.</para>

                <title>Return Value</title>

                <para>On success <function>sd_get_seats()</function>,
                <function>sd_get_sessions()</function> and
                <function>sd_get_uids()</function> return the number
                of entries in the arrays. On failure, these calls
                return a negative errno-style error code.</para>
