Adding file descriptors to a GSource provides similar functionality to
the old g_source_add_poll() API with two main differences.
First: the list of handles is managed internally and therefore users are
prevented from randomly modifying the ->events field. This prepares us
for an epoll future where changing the event mask is a syscall.
Second: keeping the list internally allows us to check the ->revents for
events for ourselves, allowing the source to skip implementing
check/prepare. This also prepares us for the future by allowing an
implementation that doesn't need to iterate over all of the sources
every time.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=686853
Allow for NULL GSourceFuncs.check() and .prepare().
For prepare() the source will be taken not to be ready and having an
infinite timeout. For check() the source will be taken not to be ready.

This is the vtable pointer for the source which is usually held in
static storage. For our internal sources it points at a vtable which
the user should really never be modifying.
Mark it const.

Add the GLIB_AVAILABLE_IN_ALL annotation to all old functions (that
haven't already been annotated with the GLIB_AVAILABLE_IN_* macros or a
deprecation macro).
If we discover in the future that we cannot use only one macro on
Windows, it will be an easy sed patch to fix that.

Many (if not "almost all") programs that spawn other programs via
g_spawn_sync() or the like simply want to check whether or not the
child exited successfully, but doing so requires use of
platform-specific functionality and there's actually a fair amount of
boilerplate involved.
This new API will help drain a *lot* of mostly duplicated code in
GNOME, from gnome-session to gdm. And we can see that some bits even
inside GLib were doing it wrong; for example checking the exit status
on Unix, but ignoring it on Windows.

The Since tag for these was saying 2.28 but it was actually added in
2.31. It looks like all of the Since tags list stable version numbers
so this patch bumps that up to 2.32.

Add g_main_context_ref_thread_default(), which always returns a
reffed GMainContext, rather than sometimes returning a (non-reffed)
GMainContext, and sometimes returning NULL. This simplifies the
bookkeeping in any code that needs to keep a reference to the
thread-default context for a while.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=660994
The boolean values to be returned by a GSourceFunc are always ambiguous,
and even in case of experienced developers then can lead to confusion.
The Perl bindings for GLib have two simple constants, mapping to TRUE
and FALSE, that make the return values less confusing: G_SOURCE_CONTINUE
and G_SOURCE_REMOVE respectively.

Several different codebases in GNOME want to implement wall clocks.
While we could pretty easily share a private library, it's not a
substantial amount of code, and GLib already has a lot of the
necessary system-specific detection and handling infrastructure.
Note this initial implementation just wakes up once a second in the
cancel_on_set case; we'll add the Linux-specific handling in a
subsequent commit.

This adds "child source" support to GSource. A child source behaves
basically like a GPollFD; when you add a source to a context, all of
its child sources are added with the same priority; when you destroy a
source, all of its child sources are destroyed; and when a child
source triggers, its parent source's dispatch function is run.
Use cases include:
- adding a GTimeoutSource to another source to cause the source to
automatically trigger after a certain timeout.
- wrapping an existing source type with a new type that has
a different callback signature
- creating a source that triggers based on different conditions
at different times.

glib is trying to move toward using microseconds-in-gint64 as its
universal time format.
No real API breaks here since GTimeSpec is new this unstable release
series.
Adds a new function g_main_context_invoke() (and _full() variant).
This function takes a main context, a function and a user_data. If the
main context is already acquired in the current thread, the function is
invoked directly. If the main context is the default main context of
the current thread and it can be acquired then the function is invoked
directly while the context is owned. Otherwise, the function is
scheduled as an idle on the context.
These allow applications to give meaningful names to their sources.
Source names can then be used for debugging and profiling, for
example with systemtap or gdb.

* glib/gpoll.c (g_poll): Move this out of gmain.c and make it part
of the public API. (Part of Bug 505361 - gunixinputstream.c
assumes poll() available.)

Fix problems on 64-bit Windows. Avoid warnings, some of which
indicated actual problems, some which were just annoyances.
Where casts to an integer type are needed for pointers, use
gssize. Technically intptr_t would be the more proper type, but we
still want to be compilable with MSVS6 and 7 which don't have
intptr_t. MSVS8 and 9 do have intptr_t, but in <crtdefs.h>, not
<stdint.h>.
Use %p to print out handles. Use gssize casts when assigning
GPollFD::fd fields.
Use G_GSIZE_FORMAT when printing size_t values.
* configure.in: Define automake conditional G_OS_WIN32_X64 which
is true on Win64.
* glib/giochannel.h: Use slightly different prototype for
g_io_channel_win32_new_messages() on Win64 with gsize instead of
guint.
* glib/giowin32.c
* glib/gmain.c
* glib/gspawn-win32.c
* tests/testglib.c: Generic changes as described above.
* glib/gmain.h: Don't bother mentioning GIMP in comment.
* glib/grel.c (tuple_hash_2): Use all bits of pointer.
* glib/gspawn-win32.c
* glib/gspawn-win32-helper.c: Use gssize types in the
communication between parent and helper process, so that we can
pass process handles, which are pointers, also on Win64.
* glib/gtimer.c (g_time_val_to_iso8601): time_t is 64 bits on
Win64 so we can't pass the address of a GTimeVal::tv_sec which is
a long directly to gmtime(). On the other hand, changing
GTimeVal::tv_sec to be a gint64 on Win64 is not really feasible
either, as that would then require changes in much code that uses
GTimeVals.
* glib/gspawn-win32.c
* glib/Makefile.am: Call the helper programs
gspawn-win64-helper.exe and gspawn-win64-helper-console.exe on
Win64, to avoid potential risk of running a 32-bit version of the
helper.

* glib/glib.h: #define __GLIB_H_INSIDE__ around including
everything.
* glib/*.h: check for that define instead of __G_LIB_H__ if
G_DISABLE_SINGLE_INCLUDES is defined.
* glib/gdatasetprivate.h: #include <glib.h> instead of
<glib/gdataset.h>

* glib/*.h: make it possible to disable single-file includes by
defining G_DISABLE_SINGLE_INCLUDES when building against GLib.
Approved by Tim Janik.
* glib/glib.h: include <glib/gslice.h>.
* glib/gi18n.h
* glib/gi18n-lib.h
* glib/gprintf.h: include <glib.h> so the above works when these
files are included without including <glib.h> first.

The g_timeout_add_seconds() API lacks a _full() counterpart, allowing the
setting of a destroy notification function to be invoked when the timeout
source is removed.
This patch adds g_timeout_add_seconds_full() to the public API and
reimplements g_timeout_add_seconds() as a call to g_timeout_add_seconds_full().

* glib/gmain.h (struct _GPollFD): Prepare for potential Win64
build: Use gint64 for the fd field on Win64, as we want to be able
to store a HANDLE in it. (#395422) (Other changes will surely also
be necessary when building on Win64, at least in gwin32.c.)
