This reverts commit 8028494335.
Adding (array length=…) to a gchar* parameter causes the GIR file to
contain an array of strings, rather than an array of characters. While
we fix GIR, revert those changes.
Some of the other changes in the file (which have an explicit
(element-type) already) are fine.

The m4 and bash completion items are usable and relevant
depending on the host system's configuration. So, we check for the
presence of the programs that these items depend on, and only install
them when those programs are found.
For the Valgrind suppression files, we don't install them on Windows as
Valgrind is currently not supported on Windows.
Als fix the path where the GDB helpers are installed, as the path is
incorrectly constructed.
This will fix the "install" stage when building on Visual Studio at
least as there are some post-install steps that are related to them,
which will make use of these programs.

I’m unsure what the original reasoning for returning TRUE by default
from supports_dtls was, but it is not backwards-compatible. If a
pre-existing GTlsBackend implementation never implements the
supports_dtls vfunc, the supports_dtls() method will magically return
TRUE rather than FALSE.
Since any backend which does implement DTLS should be implementing the
supports_dtls vfunc (and no DTLS-supporting backends have actually been
merged yet; see bug #697908), it seems safer to make this slight API
break in the name of backwards compatibility than to leave it as
returning TRUE incorrectly.

Language bindings have so far been unable to implement the GListModel
interface because the ::get_item virtual function returns a
non-bindable type (gpointer). The `gpointer` type gets translated into
`void` by G-I meaning that get_item() implementations can't return any
items.
We can set the return type of the get_item() vfunc explicitly to
GObject, which fixes the issue.
This patch also removes the existing (type GObject) annotation on
g_list_model_get_item(), which is necessary because if its return type
matches that of the get_item() vfunc, G-I connects the two and
propagates the 'skip' annotation from one to the other resulting in the
get_item() vfunc being hidden. There's no API break here because the
'skip' annotation makes g_list_model_get_item() invisible to G-I users
anyway.

It's not likely that the runtime of a bound language using the
introspection supports running in a process forked by a foreign
library, so that a closure programmed in that language would work
safely.
Any programming environment supporting that would probably have
its own advanced facilities for process spawning, or be able
to access the GLib spawning APIs via raw C bindings (still
represented in the introspection, (skip) only adds a flag)
and do any low-level preparatory dances as necessary for the
forked runtime.
Note that there are other APIs making use of GSpawnChildSetupFunc,
but they are usable with the closure nullified, and we cannot annotate
the closure parameters away because that would break the annotated API
for bindings; accordingly to bug #738176 comment #3, the current bindings'
users are expected to pass null.
Make it a bit more obvious when the DTLS methods aren’t implemented by a
particular TLS backend; return an invalid type rather than crashing.

See bug #786456 for a detailed analysis of the situation which can cause
this (in summary, if a g_subprocess_wait_async() call is cancelled on a
GSubprocess which is already known to be dead).
The problem was that the GCancellable callback handler was
unconditionally returning a result for the GTask for
g_subprocess_wait_async(), even if that GTask had already returned a
result and the callback was being invoked after the GTask had been
removed from the pending_waits list.
Fix that by checking whether the GTask is still in the pending_waits
list before returning a result for it.
Thanks to Will Thompson for some very useful unit tests which reproduce
this (which will be pushed in the following commit).

We want to set _WIN32_WINNT so that functions will be properly found in
the headers, to target the NT6.1+ (Windows 7+) APIs.
Also improve the checks for if_nametoindex() and if_indextoname() on
Windows as they are supported in Windows Vista+, but they have
to be checked by linking against iphlpapi.lib (or -liphlpapi). On other
platforms, they are still checked as they were before.

Some of the dependencies' build systems for Visual Studio do not provide a
pkg-config file upon build, so we use find_library() for them when the
corresponding pkg-config files are not found during Visual Studio builds,
so that one will not need to make up pkg-config files for them, which
could be error-prone. These .lib names match the names that are built
with the officially supported build system that is used by their
respective Visual Studio support.
For ZLib, this will make gio-2.0.pc reflect on the zlib .lib based on
what is found, or whether we use the fallback/bundled ZLib, when we
don't have a pkg-config file for ZLib on MSVC. We still need to depend
on Meson to be updated to put the correct link argument for linking ZLib
in the pkg-config case.

In practice the message bus (dbus-daemon or a reimplementation) should

Refusing to queue for a name lets you do this transaction,
but atomically, avoiding the transient state where you briefly join
the queue and then are given the name when its primary owner drops it:

Mention that it really is a good idea to save errno before doing
literally anything else after calling a function which could set it.

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.

The /etc/mtab file is still used by some distributions (e.g. Slackware),
so it has to be monitored instead of /proc/self/mountinfo in order to
avoid races between g_unix_mounts_get and "mounts-changed" signal. The
util-linux is built with --enable-libmount-support-mtab in that case and
mnt_has_regular_mtab is used for checks. Let's use mnt_has_regular_mtab
also to determine which file to monitor.

Unlike g_application_register, there is no public API to unregister the
GApplication from D-Bus. Therefore, if the GApplication is set up
manually without using g_application_run, then neither can the
GApplicationImpl be destroyed nor can dbus_unregister be called before
destruction.
This is fine as long as no sub-class has implemented dbus_unregister.
If they have, their method method will be called after destruction, and
they should be prepared to deal with the consequences.
As long as there is no public API for unregistering, let's demote the
assertion to a WARNING. Bravehearts who don't use g_application_run
can continue to implement dbus_unregister, but they would have been
adequately notified.
This reverts commit c1ae1170fa.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=725950
Invoking the dbus_unregister virtual method during destruction is
problematic. It would happen after a sub-class has dropped its
references to its instance objects, and it is surprising to be asked to
unexport exported D-Bus objects after that.
This problem was masked as a side-effect of commit 21b1c390a3.
Let's ensure that it doesn't regress by asserting that dbus_unregister
has happened before destruction.
Based on a patch by Giovanni Campagna.
