SD_BUS_M...IFY_TYPE(3)  sd_bus_message_verify_type SD_BUS_M...IFY_TYPE(3)
       sd_bus_message_verify_type - Check if the message has specified
       type at the current location
       #include <systemd/sd-bus.h>
       int sd_bus_message_verify_type(sd_bus_message *m, char type,
                                      const char* contents);
       sd_bus_message_verify_type() checks if the complete type at the
       current location in the message m matches the specified type and
       contents. If non-zero, parameter type must be one of the types
       specified in sd_bus_message_append(3). If non-null, parameter
       contents must be a valid sequence of complete types. If both type
       and contents are specified type must be a container type.
       If type is specified, the type in the message must match. If
       contents is specified, the type in the message must be a container
       type with this signature.
       On success, this call returns true if the type matches and zero if
       not (the message m contains different data or the end of the
       message has been reached). On failure, it returns a negative
       errno-style error code.
   Errors
       Returned errors may indicate the following problems:
       -EINVAL
           m or both type and contents are NULL.
           Arguments do not satisfy other constraints listed above.
       -EPERM
           Message m is not sealed.
       Functions described here are available as a shared library, which
       can be compiled against and linked to with the
       libsystemd pkg-config(1) file.
       The code described here uses getenv(3), which is declared to be
       not multi-thread-safe. This means that the code calling the
       functions described here must not call setenv(3) from a parallel
       thread. It is recommended to only do calls to setenv() from an
       early phase of the program when no other threads have been
       started.
