This reverts commit 4cad66580b.
Downgrading the criticals was only temporary. Now we’ve branched for
GLib 2.78, the criticals can be reinstated early this cycle, so people
have the maximum time to fix latent bugs in their code.
Fixes: #2951
The ref on the timeout source owned by `SendMessageData` was being
dropped just after attaching the source to the main context, leaving it
unowned in that struct. That meant the only ref on the source was held
by the `GMainContext` it was attached to.
This ref was dropped when returning `G_SOURCE_REMOVE` from
`send_message_with_reply_timeout_cb()`. Before that happens,
`send_message_data_deliver_error()` is called, which normally calls
`send_message_with_reply_cleanup()` and destroys the source.
However, if `send_message_data_deliver_error()` is called when the
message has already been delivered, calling
`send_message_with_reply_cleanup()` will be skipped. This leaves the
source pointer in `SendMessageData` dangling, which will cause problems
when `g_source_destroy()` is subsequently called on it.
I’m not sure if it’s possible in practice for this situation to occur,
but the code certainly does nothing to prevent it, and it’s easy enough
to avoid by keeping a strong ref on the source in `SendMessageData`.

It already implicitly held a strong ref on its `GTask` values, but
didn’t have a free function set so that they would be automatically
unreffed on removal from the map.
This meant that the functions handling removals from the map,
`on_worker_closed()` (via `cancel_method_on_close()`) and
`send_message_with_reply_cleanup()` had to call unref once more than
they would otherwise.
In `send_message_with_reply_cleanup()`, this behaviour depended on
whether it was called with `remove == TRUE`. If not, it was `(transfer
none)` not `(transfer full)`. This led to bugs in its callers.
For example, this led to a direct leak in `cancel_method_on_close()`, as
it needed to remove tasks from `map_method_serial_to_task`, but called
`send_message_with_reply_cleanup(remove = FALSE)` and erroneously didn’t
call unref an additional time.
Try and simplify it all by setting a `GDestroyNotify` on
`map_method_serial_to_task`’s values, and making the refcount handling
of `send_message_with_reply_cleanup()` not be conditional on its
arguments.

The ownership transfers in this code are a bit complex, so adding some
extra documentation and `g_steal_pointer()` calls should hopefully help
clarify things.
This doesn’t introduce any functional changes, just code documentation.

The existing comment in the code was correct that `data` is freed when
the task callback is called, because `data` is also pointed to by the
`user_data` for the task, and that’s freed at the end of the callback.
So the existing code was correct to take a copy of `data->task` before
calling `g_task_return_*()`.
After calling `g_task_return_*()`, the existing code unreffed the task
(which is correct), but then didn’t clear the `data->task` pointer,
leaving `data->task` dangling. That could cause a use-after-free or a
double-unref.
Avoid that risk by explicitly clearing `data->task` before calling
`g_task_return_*()`.
After some testing, it turns out this doesn’t actually fix any bugs, but
it’s still a good robustness improvement.

The generated gir file marks the size parameter as "out" by default. This is wrong in the context of a caller allocated buffer with a given size. Explicitly marking the size parameter as (in) fixes the issue.
As explained in the previous commit, GNU Coreutils 9.2 changes the behaviour
of `du --bytes` to only count regular files and symlinks.
The previous commit makes the test pass with GNU Coreutils >=9.2, but the
machine running the tests may have an older version, or perhaps even a
reimplementation such as uutils. So we can't rely on the size returned by `du`
to be the consistent across systems any more.
However, the plus side of the new behaviour is that the size reported by `du`
/ `G_FILE_MEASURE_APPARENT_SIZE` is now well-defined across filesystems
(as the sum of the sizes of regular files & symlinks), so we can hardcode it.
Fixes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/issues/2965
Since GNU Coreutils 9.2 (commit 110bcd28386b1f47a4cd876098acb708fdcbbb25),
`du --apparent-size` (including `du --bytes`) no longer counts all kinds of
files (directories, FIFOs, etc.), but only those for which `st_size` in
`struct stat` is defined by POSIX, namely regular files and symlinks
(and also rarely supported memory objects).
This aligns the behaviour of GLib's `G_FILE_MEASURE_APPARENT_SIZE` flag
with the new GNU Coreutils `du` and correct POSIX use.
Note that this may be a breaking change for some uses.

Warn when the boolean return isn't used, since we may not initialize
the out arguments in the FALSE case. Update all internal callers to
use the return value. They were already safe, but users outside GLib
may not be.
Previously, `-Wl,--export-dynamic` was in `Libs` key of `gmodule-2.0.pc`,
even though `-Wl` is a compiler flag, rather than a linker one.
This caused issues with API reference builds in evolution-data-server,
which passes the output of `pkg-config --libs` through `--ldflags`
argument of `gtkdoc-scan`, which are forwarded unchanged to `ld`:
ld: unrecognized option '-Wl,--export-dynamic'
Let’s move the flag to `Cflags` so that the compiler can deal with it.

Both `GPollableInputStream` and `GPollableOutputStream` are dynamic
interfaces, in that their implementation on a class may only be
functional if certain prerequisites are met at runtime. For example,
a `GConverterInputStream` is only pollable if its base stream is
pollable, and that’s determined at runtime rather than compile time.
As such, both interfaces have a `can_poll()` method. If that method
returns `FALSE`, the behaviour of all other methods on the interface is
undefined.
That was mentioned in the documentation for `can_poll()`, but not any of
the other documentation for the interfaces, which made it a bit hard to
find.
Mention it more widely.

If the libc and kernel support `SOCK_NONBLOCK`, we can specify that in
the `socket()` flags, and avoid a subsequent call to `fcntl()` to set
`O_NONBLOCK`.
For modern Linux distributions, this will save a syscall when creating a
socket.

If the first part of the test takes less than 3s (which is normal), the
timeout for it is not removed, and could spuriously fire during the
second part of the test, causing a false failure.
Instead of relying on source IDs, just use (and explicitly destroy) a
`GSource` for the timeouts.

The test thought that calling `g_app_info_get()` was a bit of a hack,
but actually it (or calling another `g_app_info_*()` function) is the
right way to use the `GAppInfoMonitor` API.
See the documentation improvements a couple of commits back for details.
The remaining FIXME higher up in the test should probably be fixed by
getting `g_app_info_monitor_get()` to arm the signal. That requires
changes in `g_app_info_monitor_get()` to call `desktop_file_dir_init()`.
That will have to happen another time.

This partially reverts ed8e86a7d4.
The change to add the criticals (commit ed8e86a7d4) is correct, but
landed too late in the cycle. Let’s downgrade the criticals to debugs
for now, to stop applications seeing a lot of new criticals in their
output. Those criticals are particularly disruptive for command line
applications and unit tests.
Early in the next cycle, the debugs will be re-upgraded to criticals.
This will give applications a whole additional cycle to fix their
ambiguous use of API.
It turned out that a lot of applications have latent bugs around
calling `g_file_info_get_*()` without checking whether an attribute
is set first, and were hence relying on the ‘unknown’ return value
also being an appropriate default for them.
This was compounded by the fact that several non-local GVFS backends
were not setting `GFileInfo` attributes all the time, which caused the
‘missing attribute’ code path to be hit more frequently. For example,
they would only call `g_file_info_set_is_hidden()` with a true value and
never bother with a false one.
It was further compounded by the fact that, while this change landed for
the 2.75.4 release, there did not seem to be extensive integration
testing of that release, and distributions and downstreams went straight
to 2.76.0. That meant we missed the window between 2.75.4 and 2.76.0 to
change, fix or revert this behaviour. GLib relies on distros and
downstreams doing integration testing of unstable releases. We test with
downstream GNOME as part of gnome-build-meta, but do not have the
resources to do integration testing for everybody.

Before commit ed8e86a7d4, this function would have silently returned a
zero-valued `GTimeVal` if the correct attributes weren’t present.
That partially regressed in commit ed8e86a7d4, which made it return with
a critical warning, but without zeroing the `GTimeVal`. The critical
warning can be ignored by users (it doesn’t abort the process unless
`G_DEBUG=fatal-criticals` is set), but the change in behaviour of
zeroing the `GTimeVal` could cause bugs.
