None of systemd's libraries are thread safe. They are written in a
threads-aware style though. This means you should only use a specific
context object from a single thread at a time, and need to do your own
locking around it if that single thread shall change all the
time. systemd doesn't keep global state generally, which means doing
your own locking around the sd_xyz objects should suffice and work
reasonably well.
