.Sh DESCRIPTION
These functions provide a means of querying OpenRC services to find out the
state of each one, to start and stop it, and any other functions related
to it.
.Pp
Most functions should be self descriptive as to what they do and what they
return based on names and arguments.
.Pp
.Fn rc_service_add
adds the
.Fa service
to the
.Fa runlevel .
.Pp
.Fn rc_service_delete
deletes the
.Fa service
from the
.Fa runlevel .
.Pp
.Fn rc_service_daemon_set
saves the arguments in the
.Fa service
state data so that
.Fn rc_service_daemons_crashed
can check to see if they are still running or not.
.Pp
.Fn rc_service_description
returns the
.Va description
variable of the
.Fa service .
If
.Fa option
is not null then we return the
.Fa description_$option
variable instead.
.Pp
.Fn rc_service_exists
returns true if the
.Fa service
exists, otherwise false.
.Pp
.Fn rc_service_in_runlevel
returns true if the
.Fa service
is in the
.Fa runlevel ,
otherwise false.
.Pp
.Fn rc_service_mark
puts the
.Fa service
into the given
.Fa state .
If the state is RC_SERVICE_STOPPED then all data associated with the
.Fa service
is lost.
.Fn rc_service_extra_commands
returns a list of extra commands the
.Fa service
supports beyond the default ones. See
.Nm runscript
for default commands.
.Pp
.Fn rc_service_plugable
returns true if the service is allowed to be plugged by
.Pa rc.conf .
Default is true.
.Pp
.Fn rc_service_resolve
resolves
.Fa service
to the full path of service that was started, or would be started.
.Pp
When
.Fa service
starts, it starts
.Fa service_to_start
afterswards as directed by
.Fn rc_service_schedule_start .
.Fn rc_services_scheduled
returns a list of services that will be started when
.Fa service
starts.
.Fn rc_service_schedule_clear
clears these scheduled services for
.Fa service .
.Pp
.Fn rc_service_state returns the state of
.Fa service .
The return value is a bitmask, where more than one state can apply.
.Pp
.Fn rc_service_started_daemon
checks to see if
.Fa service
started
.Fa exec
using
.Nm start-stop-daemon .
If
.Fa indx
is greater than zero, then it must also be the nth daemon started by
.Fa service .
.Fn rc_service_value_set
saves the
.Fa value
under the name
.Fa option .
.Fn rc_service_value_get
returns the value of the saved
.Fa option .
.Pp
.Fn rc_services_in_runlevel
returns a list of services in
.Fa runlevel .
If
.Fa runlevel
is not specified, then it returns a list of all available services.
.Pp
.Fn rc_services_in_state
returns a list of all the services in
.Fa state .
.Sh IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
Each function that returns
.Fr "char *"
returns a malloced NULL terminated string that should be freed when done.
.Pp
Each function that returns
.Fr "RC_STRINGLIST *"
should be freed using
.Fn rc_stringlist_free
when done.
.Pp
When a function fails it should either return false or NULL and set
.Va errno
unless specified otherwise as above.
.Sh FILES
.Pa /lib/rc/init.d
normally holds the volatile state data for services on a RAM backed disk.
