- * Obtains the machine UUID of the machine this process is running on.
- *
- * The returned string must be freed with dbus_free().
- * 
- * This UUID is guaranteed to remain the same until the next reboot
- * (unless the sysadmin foolishly changes it and screws themselves).
- * It will usually remain the same across reboots also, but hardware
- * configuration changes or rebuilding the machine could break that.
- *
- * The idea is that two processes with the same machine ID should be
- * able to use shared memory, UNIX domain sockets, process IDs, and other
- * features of the OS that require both processes to be running
- * on the same OS kernel instance.
- *
- * The machine ID can also be used to create unique per-machine
- * instances. For example, you could use it in bus names or
- * X selection names.
- *
- * The machine ID is preferred over the machine hostname, because
- * the hostname is frequently set to "localhost.localdomain" and
- * may also change at runtime.
- *
- * You can get the machine ID of a remote application by invoking the
- * method GetMachineId from interface org.freedesktop.DBus.Peer.
- *
- * If the remote application has the same machine ID as the one
- * returned by this function, then the remote application is on the
- * same machine as your application.
- *
- * The UUID is not a UUID in the sense of RFC4122; the details
- * are explained in the D-Bus specification.
- *
- * @returns a 32-byte-long hex-encoded UUID string, or #NULL if insufficient memory
