More vectors will give an error and we can simply clamp here and
consider it like a short write instead.
In case of GSocketOutputStream this is done here instead of inside
GSocket before calling sendmsg() because we we can't generically handle
short writes when sending messages on a socket, e.g. for datagram
sockets this causes only part of the datagram to be sent and an error
would be more useful in this case than sending corrupted data.
Also reduce the fallback limit to 16 in gsocket.c as that's the minimum
value required by POSIX and add a static assertion that the limit is
never bigger than G_MAXINT as that's the type recvmmsg/sendmmsg take.
To make things consistent across the board as that is the WinSock2 error
code that is received by g_socket_send_message_with_timeout() when it
returns G_POLLABLE_RETURN_WOULD_BLOCK.
This partially reverts commit 799f8dcd46.
This patch seems to break the writability status of the server socket: once
somebody writes to it with success, then it reports it is not writable
anymore. Also, when the client socket has the flag FD_CONNECT set once,
it is never cleared and then it reports it is always writable, also when
it is not.
FIONREAD ioctl on Linux reports the size of payload on UDP sockets.
However, other systems usually add internal header size to the reported
size, which vary between different operating systems and socket types.
To make it work on more systems, we should follow what we do on Windows
instead of using this unreliable FIONREAD ioctl.
This fixes socket test on FreeBSD.
Fix various warnings regarding unused variables, duplicated
branches etc by adjusting the ifdeffery and some missing casts.
gnulib triggers -Wduplicated-branches in one of the copied files,
disable as that just makes updating the code harder.
The warning indicating missing features are made none fatal through
pragmas. They still show but don't abort the build.

In my previous patch, I failed to call g_source_remove_unix_fd() in
order to actually stop polling the fd of the closed socket.
The test did not catch this, because the test only checks that the right
source callback is dispatched properly. I don't know how to test this.

Prevent the situation where errno is set by function A, then function B
is called (which is typically _(), but could be anything else) and it
overwrites errno, then errno is checked by the caller.
errno is a horrific API, and we need to be careful to save its value as
soon as a function call (which might set it) returns. i.e. Follow the
pattern:
int errsv, ret;
ret = some_call_which_might_set_errno ();
errsv = errno;
if (ret < 0)
puts (strerror (errsv));
This patch implements that pattern throughout GLib. There might be a few
places in the test code which still use errno directly. They should be
ported as necessary. It doesn’t modify all the call sites like this:
if (some_call_which_might_set_errno () && errno == ESOMETHING)
since the refactoring involved is probably more harmful than beneficial
there. It does, however, refactor other call sites regardless of whether
they were originally buggy.

There are a few places where commit 18a33f72 replaced valid (nullable)
(optional) annotations with just (optional). That has a different
meaning.
(nullable) (optional) can only be applied to gpointer* parameters, and
means that both the gpointer* and returned gpointer can be NULL. i.e.
The caller can pass in NULL to ignore the return value; and the returned
value can be NULL.
(optional) can be applied to anything* parameters, and means that the
anything* can be NULL. i.e. The caller can pass in NULL to ignore the
return value. The return value cannot be NULL.

socket->priv->timeout is only a guint, and the multiplication is
performed before it’s widened to gint64 to be stored in start_time
(thanks, C). This means any timeout of 50 days or more would overflow.
Fixing this bug makes me feel a real sense of self-worth.

WSAWaitForMultipleEvents() only returns for one of the waiting threads, and
that one might not even be the one waiting for the condition that changed. As
such, only let a single thread wait on the event and use a GCond for all other
threads.
With this it is possible to e.g. have an UDP socket that is written to from
one thread and read from in another thread on Win32 too. On POSIX systems this
was working before already.

If we have an input parameter (or return value) we need to use (nullable).
However, if it is an (inout) or (out) parameter, (optional) is sufficient.
It looks like (nullable) could be used for everything according to the
Annotation documentation, but (optional) is more specific.
If g_socket_receive_message_with_timeout() is called with messages ==
NULL set the msg_control buffer to empty to not request the control
messages from recvmsg() at all.
This completely disables the control message processing and reduces
overhead, which might be critical at high packet rate.

GDatagramBased is an interface abstracting datagram-based communications
in the style of the Berkeley sockets API. It may be contrasted to (for
example) GIOStream, which supports only streaming I/O.
GDatagramBased allows socket-like communications to be done through any
object, not just a concrete GSocket (which wraps socket()).
This adds the GDatagramBased interface, and implements it in GSocket.

Commit a0cefc2217 introduced an unresolved
symbol, g_socket_send_message_with_timeout(), on win32. Windows
unfortunately isn’t clever enough to fill in the gaps and magic up the
implementation of that function from nowhere, so we had better do it
ourselves.
Factor the blocking behaviour out of g_socket_send_message() into a new
internal g_socket_send_message_with_timeout().

The value of g_socket_is_connected() gets stuck high if the GSocket is
shut down in two steps:
g_socket_shutdown (socket, TRUE, FALSE, NULL);
g_socket_shutdown (socket, FALSE, TRUE, NULL);
rather than one:
g_socket_shutdown (socket, TRUE, TRUE, NULL);
Fix that by tracking the connected status for the read half and the
write half of the connection separately.

If an error in the underlying sendmmsg() syscall occurs after
successfully sending one or more messages, g_socket_send_messages()
should return the number of messages successfully sent, rather than an
error. This mirrors the documented sendmmsg() behaviour.
This is a slight behaviour change for g_socket_send_messages(), but as
it relaxes the error reporting (reporting errors in fewer situations
than before), it should not cause problems.

Add support for receiving multiple messages with a single system call,
using recvmmsg() if available. Otherwise, fall back to looping over
g_socket_receive_message().

tests.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=751924
In order to support per-operation timeouts on new API like
g_socket_receive_messages(), the internal GSocket API should use
timeouts rather than boolean blocking parameters.

(timeout == -1) === (blocking == TRUE)
(timeout > 0) === new behaviour

This code was out of date with current coding practices.
Nowadays it's common to receive file descriptors over environment
variables from other processes like systemd. The unit files that
control these file descriptors are configurable by sysadmins.
It is not (necessarily) a programmer error when g_socket_details_from_fd()
is called with a file descriptor that is not a socket. It can also
be a system and/or configuration error.

For performance reasons we should always try to send or

Currently, the Windows code use Winsock2-specific APIs to try to emulate
calls such as inet_pton(), inet_ntop() and if_nametoindex(), which may not
do the job all the time. On Vista and later, Winsock2 does provide a
proper implementation for these functions, so we can use them if they exist
on the system, by querying for them during g_networking_init(). Otherwise,
we continue to use the original code path for these, in the case of XP and
Server 2003.
This enables many of the network-address tests to pass on Windows as a
result, when the native Winsock2 implementations can be used.

When implementing blocking operations on top of
nonblocking sockets we should always first try to
perform the operation and then if needed handle
EAGAIN and wait with g_socket_wait_condition.
This is an optimization since we avoid calling
wait condition when it is not needed, but most
importantly this fixes hangs on win32 where some
events (in particular FD_WRITE) are only emitted
after the operation fails with EWOULDBLOCK.

This is a best-effort approach to preventing SIGPIPE emissions on Darwin

even if SIG_IGN prevents them crashing the program.

This is quite important, as it means you can safely let the GSocket drop
out of scope while maintaining a reference to the GSource, and the
socket will remain open. That means fewer closure structures, simpler

Rather than having special code in gsocket.c, handle Winsock errors
along with other Win32 errors in gioerror.c
Also, reference g_win32_error_message() from the

g_win32_error_message() docs to clarify that it works with Winsock

Since all element markup is now gone from the doc comments,
we can turn off the gtk-doc sgml mode, which means that from

and so on.

Additionally, since all versions of Windows that we care about also
have <sys/types.h>, we can remove HAVE_SYS_TYPES_H checks everywhere.
Also remove one include of <sys/times.h>, and the corresponding
configure check, since the include is not currently needed (and may
always have just been a typo for <sys/time.h>).

On Windows and OS X, FIONREAD on a UDP socket gets the total number of
bytes available, not the number of bytes available in the next packet,
which is the more useful number (and how the function always behaved
on Linux).

MSG_PEEK recv() into a giant buffer, since there is apparently no
other way to get the information.

The requested_conditions list access is not threadsafe. When passing
the socket ownership from a GSource callback to another thread, which
also creates a GSocketSource for the socket, it can happen that the
original GSocketSource is finalized at the same time as the new one
is created. This would cause inconsistencies in the requested_conditions
list and can cause assertions or completely undefined behaviour.

With UDP sockets, g_socket_bind() with allow_reuse=TRUE on Linux
behaved in a way that the documentation didn't suggest, and that
didn't match other OSes. (Specifically, it allowed binding multiple
multicast sockets to the same address.)
Since this behavior is useful, and since allow_reuse didn't have any
other meaning with UDP sockets, update the docs to reflect the Linux
behavior, and make it do the same thing on non-Linux.
