NAME top

   sd_booted - Test whether the system is running the systemd init
   system

SYNOPSIS top

   **#include <systemd/sd-daemon.h>**

   **int sd_booted(void);**

DESCRIPTION top

   **sd_booted()** checks whether the system was booted up using the
   systemd init system.

RETURN VALUE top

   On failure, this call returns a negative errno-style error code.
   If the system was booted up with systemd as init system, this call
   returns a positive return value, zero otherwise.

NOTES top

   Functions described here are available as a shared library, which
   can be compiled against and linked to with the
   **libsystemd pkg-config**(1) file.

   Internally, this function checks whether the directory
   /run/systemd/system/ exists. A simple check like this can also be
   implemented trivially in shell or any other language.
