102
103    <para><function>udev_device_has_tag()</function> returns a valuer larger than zero if the specified
104    device object has the indicated tag assigned to it, and zero otherwise. See
105    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>udev</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> for details on
106    the tags concept. <function>udev_device_has_current_tag()</function> executes a similar check, however
107    only determines whether the indicated tag was set as result of the most recent event seen for the
108    device. Tags are "sticky", i.e. once set for a device they remain on the device until the device is
109    unplugged, even if the rules run for later events of the same device do not set them anymore. Any tag for
110    which <function>udev_device_has_current_tag()</function> returns true will hence also return true when
111    passed to <function>udev_device_has_tag()</function>, but the opposite might not be true, in case a tag is
112    no longer configured by the rules applied to the most recent device even.</para>
113
114    <para><function>udev_device_get_tags_list_entry()</function> returns a
115    <structname>udev_list_entry</structname> object, encapsulating a list of tags set for the specified
116    device. Similar, <function>udev_device_get_current_tags_list_entry()</function> returns a list of tags
117    set for the specified device as effect of the most recent device event seen (see above for details on the
118    difference).</para>

123
124    <para>On success, <function>udev_device_has_tag()</function> and
125    <function>udev_device_has_current_tag()</function> return positive or <constant>0</constant>, depending
126    on whether the device has the given tag or not.  On failure, a negative error code is returned.</para>
127
128    <para>On success, <function>udev_device_get_devlinks_list_entry()</function>,
129    <function>udev_device_get_properties_list_entry()</function>,
130    <function>udev_device_get_tags_list_entry()</function>,
131    <function>udev_device_get_current_tags_list_entry()</function> and
132    <function>udev_device_get_sysattr_list_entry()</function> return a pointer to the first entry of the
133    retrieved list. If that list is empty, or if an error occurred, <constant>NULL</constant> is
134    returned.</para>
135
136    <para>On success,
137    <function>udev_device_get_property_value()</function> and
138    <function>udev_device_get_sysattr_value()</function> return a
139    pointer to a constant string of the requested value. On error,
140    <constant>NULL</constant> is returned. Attributes that may
141    contain <constant>NUL</constant> bytes should not be retrieved
142    with <function>udev_device_get_sysattr_value()</function>;
143    instead, read them directly from the files within the device's
144    <property>syspath</property>.</para>
145
146    <para>On success,
147    <function>udev_device_set_sysattr_value()</function> returns
148    an integer greater than, or equal to, <constant>0</constant>.
149    On failure, a negative error code is returned. Values that
150    contain <constant>NUL</constant> bytes should not be set with
151    this function; instead, write them directly to the files within
152    the device's <property>syspath</property>.</para>
