These are the same as Linux `close_range (lowfd, ~0U, 0)` and
`close_range (lowfd, ~0U, CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC)`, but portable.
Unlike some implementations of BSD closefrom(3), they are
async-signal-safe.
The implementations were moved from the GSpawn code, which already
needs all of this functionality anyway, with the exception of
set_cloexec() which was copied (leading to some minor duplication,
but it's very simple).

We can't easily use g_autofd with g_unix_open_pipe, because its
parameter is an array of two fds that both need closing. Add an inline
convenience wrapper providing the obvious semantics.

This is one step towards rectifying the mistake of using `FD_CLOEXEC` in
the first place. Eventually we may deprecate support for `FD_CLOEXEC`,
as the `O_*` flags better match the underlying `pipe()` API.

Since 5c65437d "glib-unix: Add O_NONBLOCK support to g_unix_open_pipe()"
we have been using O_NONBLOCK unconditionally, so we might as well drop
the fallback here as well. This commit should be reverted if someone
reports a significant/supported platform that genuinely doesn't have
O_NONBLOCK.

Since 5c65437d "glib-unix: Add O_NONBLOCK support to g_unix_open_pipe()"
we have effectively been assuming that these two flags are
distinguishable. If that's an assumption we want to make, we should make
it a static assertion, so that GLib will fail to compile on platforms
where it isn't true.

Add support for it, but don’t use it anywhere yet — this is an API
addition, but currently doesn’t cause any functional changes. It’ll be
used in the next commit.

g_unix_open_pipe tries to avoid the standard io fd range
when getting pipe fds. This turns out to be a bad idea because
certain buggy programs rely on it using that range.
This reverts commit d9ba6150909818beb05573f54f26232063492c5b
Closes: #2795Reopens: #16
- Insert missing word "from".
- Remove space between function name and "()" so syntax highlighting
can recognise it as a function.
- Avoid "you"/"your" when discussing the reentrancy issues of regular
UNIX signal handlers, because it gives the false impression that
these issues are applicable to g_unix_signal_source_new().
Unrelated:
- Fix missing space in documentation of g_signal_new_class_handler().
Though unlikely to happen, it may happen that newly created file
descriptor take the value 0 (stdin), 1 (stdout) or 2 (stderr) if one
of the standard ones have been dismissed in between. So, it may
confuse the program if it is unaware of this change.
The point of this patch is to avoid a reasign of standard file
descriptors on newly created ones.
Closes issue #16

If this fails to compile on some particularly bizarre Unix platform,
we can relax these assertions; but our expectation is that gssize is
POSIX ssize_t, and that on Unix, GPid is POSIX pid_t.

malloc() was given too small value (size of pointer,
rather than struct it points to), and subsequent call
getpwnam_r() wrote past the end of allocated block - easily
seen with valgrind.

This is a convenience wrapper around getpwnam_r() which handles all the

There are two benefits to this:
1) We can centralize any operating system specific knowledge of
close-vs-EINTR handling. For example, while on Linux we should never
retry, if someone cared enough later about HP-UX, they could come by
and change this one spot.
2) For places that do care about the return value and want to provide
the caller with a GError, this function makes it convenient to do so.
Note that gspawn.c had an incorrect EINTR loop-retry around close().

Just like g_timeout_add() and friends, we want to hide the unintrospectable
g_unix_signal_add() from GI bindings and present g_unix_signal_add_full() as
GLib.unix_signal_add() to them.
Change the unix signal watch API to match other sources in both
available functions, names of those functions and order of the
parameters to the _full function.

Fix some bugs in the fallback case of g_unix_open_pipe:
- close both halves of the pipe on error (not just one)
- set the cloexec flag on both halves of the pipe (instead of settings
it twice on one half)
