SD_DE..._FIRST(3) sd_device_enumerator_get_device_first SD_DE..._FIRST(3)
       sd_device_enumerator_get_device_first,
       sd_device_enumerator_get_device_next,
       sd_device_enumerator_get_subsystem_first,
       sd_device_enumerator_get_subsystem_next - Enumerates devices and
       get the first or next device.
       #include <systemd/sd-device.h>
       sd_device
                                                        *sd_device_enumerator_get_device_first(sd_device_enumerator *enumerator);
       sd_device
                                                       *sd_device_enumerator_get_device_next(sd_device_enumerator *enumerator);
       sd_device
                                                           *sd_device_enumerator_get_subsystem_first(sd_device_enumerator *enumerator);
       sd_device
                                                          *sd_device_enumerator_get_subsystem_next(sd_device_enumerator *enumerator);
       The sd_device_enumerator_get_device_first() function enumerates
       all matching devices under /sys/bus/SUBSYSTEM/devices/ and
       /sys/class/SUBSYSTEM/devices/, and returns a pointer to the first
       sd_device object. If no devices are found, NULL is returned.
       The sd_device_enumerator_get_device_next() function returns the
       pointer to the next sd_device from the enumerator. It should be
       called after sd_device_enumerator_get_device_first() or after a
       previous call to this function. If no more devices are available,
       NULL is returned.
       The sd_device_enumerator_get_subsystem_first() function enumerates
       all matching subsystem devices in /sys/module/, /sys/bus/, and
       /sys/bus/SUBSYSTEM/drivers/ (such as /sys/bus/pci/drivers/). It
       returns a pointer to the first sd_device object. If no devices are
       found NULL is returned. Note that this does not enumerate devices
       provided by sd_device_enumerator_get_device_first/next(). Hence,
       e.g.  /sys/bus/pci/, /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ahci/ and so on are
       enumerated, but /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:00.0/ and so on are
       not.
       The sd_device_enumerator_get_subsystem_next() function returns the
       next subsystem device from the enumerator. It should be called
       after sd_device_enumerator_get_subsystem_first() or after a
       previous call to this function. If no more subsystem devices are
       available, NULL is returned.
       On success, these functions return a pointer to an sd_device
       object. On failure or when no more devices are available, NULL is
       returned. The returned pointers are owned by the enumerator and
       should not be freed by the caller.
       sd_device_enumerator_get_device_first(),
       sd_device_enumerator_get_device_next(),
       sd_device_enumerator_get_subsystem_first(), and
       sd_device_enumerator_get_subsystem_next() were introduced in
       systemd version 240.
