<title>Description</title>
<para>Functions described here form parts of an event loop.</para>
<para><function>sd_event_prepare</function> checks for pending
events and arms necessary timers. If any events are ready to be
processed, it returns a positive value, and the events should be
processed with <function>sd_event_dispatch</function>.
<function>sd_event_dispatch</function> runs a handler for one of
the events from the sources with the highest priority. On success,
<function>sd_event_dispatch</function> returns either 0, which
means that the loop is finished, or a positive value, which means
that the loop is again in the initial state and
<function>sd_event_prepare</function> should be called again.
</para>
<para>In case <function>sd_event_prepare</function> returned 0,
<function>sd_event_wait</function> should be called to wait for
events or a timeout. If any events are ready to be processed, it
returns a positive value, and the events should be processed with
<function>sd_event_dispatch</function>. Otherwise, the loop is
back in the initial state and <function>sd_event_prepare</function>
should be called again.</para>

<para>All three functions as the first argument take the event
loop object <parameter>event</parameter> that is created with with
<function>sd_event_new</function>. The timeout for
<function>sd_event_wait</function> is specified with
<parameter>timeout</parameter> in milliseconds.
<constant>(uint64_t) -1</constant> may be used to specify an
infinite timeout.</para>

<refsect1>
<title>Return Value</title>
<para>On success, these functions return 0 or a positive integer.
On failure, they return a negative errno-style error code. In case
of <function>sd_event_prepare</function> and
<function>sd_event_wait</function> a positive value means that
events are ready to be processed and 0 means that no events are
ready. In case of <function>sd_event_dispatch</function> a
positive value means that the loop is again in the initial state
and 0 means the loop is finished. For any of those functions, a
negative return value means the loop must be aborted.</para>
