In case of sd_bus_message_append_string_memfd(), the contents of memfd starting at the specified offset and of the specified size are used as the string. size must include the terminating NUL byte, i.e. the resulting string has length size - 1. If offset is zero and size is UINT64_MAX, the full contents of the memory file descriptor are used, and hence must themselves end in a NUL byte. If offset plus size exceeds the actual size of the memory file descriptor, this call fails with -EMSGSIZE. The memory file descriptor is sealed by this call if it has not been sealed yet, and cannot be modified after this call. The appended contents must satisfy the same constraints as described for the s type in sd_bus_message_append_basic3. In case of sd_bus_message_append_string_iovec(), the payload of iov is the string. It must satisfy the same constraints as described for the s type in sd_bus_message_append_basic3. The iov argument must point to n struct iovec structures. Each structure may have the iov_base field set, in which case the memory pointed to will be copied into the message, or unset, in which case a block of spaces (ASCII 32) of length iov_len will be inserted. The memory pointed at by iov may be changed after this call. The sd_bus_message_append_string_space() function appends space for a string to message m. It behaves similar to sd_bus_message_append_basic() with type s, but instead of copying a string into the message, it returns a pointer to the destination area to the caller in pointer ret. Space for the string of length size plus the terminating NUL is allocated. On success, those calls return 0 or a positive integer. On failure, they return a negative errno-style error code. systemd1 sd-bus3 sd_bus_message_append_basic3 The D-Bus specification
