+ <title>Description</title>
+
+ <para><function>sd_event_source_set_ratelimit()</function> may be used to enforce rate limiting on an
+ event source. When used an event source will be temporarily turned off when it fires more often then a
+ specified burst number within a specified time interval. This is useful as simple mechanism to avoid
+ event source starvation if high priority event sources fire very frequently.</para>
+
+ <para>Pass the event source to operate on as first argument, a time interval in microseconds as second
+ argument and a maximum dispatch limit ("burst") as third parameter. Whenever the event source is
+ dispatched more often than the specified burst within the specified interval it is placed in a mode
+ similar to being disabled with
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_source_set_enabled</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ and the <constant>SD_EVENT_OFF</constant> parameter. However it is disabled only temporarily – once the
+ specified interval is over regular operation resumes. It is again disabled temporarily once the specified rate
+ limiting is hit the next time. If either the interval or the burst value are specified as zero, rate
+ limiting is turned off. By default event sources do not have rate limiting enabled. Note that rate
+ limiting and disabling via <function>sd_event_source_set_enabled()</function> are independent of each
+ other, and an event source will only effect event loop wake-ups and is dispatched while it both is
+ enabled and rate limiting is not in effect.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_event_source_get_ratelimit()</function> may be used to query the current rate limiting
+ parameters set on the event source object <parameter>source</parameter>. The previously set interval and
+ burst vales are returned in the second and third argument.</para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_event_source_is_ratelimited()</function> may be used to query whether the event source
+ is currently affected by rate limiting, i.e. it has recently hit the rate limit and is currently
+ temporarily disabled due to that.</para>
+
+ <para>Rate limiting is currently implemented for I/O, timer, signal, defer and inotify event
+ sources.</para>
+ </refsect1>
+
+ <refsect1>
+ <title>Return Value</title>
+
+ <para>On success, <function>sd_event_source_set_ratelimit()</function> and
+ <function>sd_event_source_get_ratelimit()</function> return a non-negative integer. On failure, they
+ return a negative errno-style error code. <function>sd_event_source_is_ratelimited</function> returns
+ zero if rate limiting is currently not in effect and greater than zero if it is in effect; it returns a
+ negative errno-style error code on failure.</para>
