Authentication is about proving who I am; authorization is about
whether, given the knowledge of who I am, I am allowed to do something.
GDBusServer and GDBusConnection carry out authentication automatically,
but rely on the library user to carry out authorization.

This is useful information for implementors of portable software to know
whether they can rely on credentials-passing.

Previously, its tests were being run in the build directory, which is
fine (it should always be writable). If multiple tests were run in
parallel, for example with Meson’s `--repeat` option, their test files
would collide.
Fix that by running each test instance in a separate subdirectory of
`/tmp`.

Add a case for when the IPv6 result comes back negative and the IPv4
result is significantly delayed. This is exactly the case that causes
the bug addressed by GNOME/glib!865
The "happy eyeballs" RFC states that on receiving a negative response
for an IPv6 address lookup, we should wait for the IPv4 lookup to
complete and use any results we get from there.
The current code was not doing that: it was rather setting a timeout for
failing the resolution entirely. In scenarios where the IPv4 response
comes more than 50ms after the IPv6 response (which is easily attainable
under valgrind in certain configurations) this means that the IPv4
response will never come.
Remove the timeout and just wait.

This was introduced in commit 7846d6154a: g_subprocess_get_identifier()
will return NULL after the subprocess has exited, and the subprocess in
the `noop` test will exit as soon as it has started spawning. So if the
scheduler scheduled the testprog subprocess quickly, descheduled the
parent test process until the testprog exited, then the return value
from g_subprocess_get_identifier() would be NULL.
Move the g_subprocess_get_identifier() test to one which calls testprog
in `sleep-forever` mode, since that is guaranteed not to exit until
killed (which we do later in the test).

The most useful ones were already listed in the pkg-config file, but
some others (notably, `gio-querymodules`) were not. List them in the
pkg-config file with their installed paths so that the right binary is
used if GIO is installed in a non-default path.

`NM_STATE_CONNECTED_SITE` is documented to mean that a default route is
available, but that the internet connectivity check failed. A default
route being available is compatible with the documentation for
GNetworkMonitor:network-available, which should be true if the system
has a default route for at least one of IPv4 and IPv6.

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.
file_copy_fallback creates new files with default permissions and
set the correct permissions after the operation is finished. This
might cause that the files can be accessible by more users during
the operation than expected. Use G_FILE_CREATE_PRIVATE for the new
files to limit access to those files.
When an application is launched using Launch Services
osx will add an extra parameter which we were not
handling and then gapplication would abort. Instead we make
an initial parsing and like this we avoid the abort if this
parameter is provided

The parent GNetworkAddress contains a shared list of resolved
addresses that is used as a cache for multiple enumerations.
This commit ensures that the cache is only set upon completion of
DNS lookups and only read once by enumerations to avoid being in a
bad state.
Fixes#1771
We miss releasing the async operation's reference on a state object in
one of the error cases.
The call to connection_attempt_remove() (although it calls unref
internally) is not sufficient because this is releasing the reference
that the list owns.
Closes#1774
Spotted in https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/586. Bad input
on GAppLaunchContext environment manipulation functions is caught by
inner code, but the warning is not seemingly related.
Add precondition checks to these functions so it's clear where does the
bad input come from.
The network-available property can be asserted by querying the NMState
describing the current overval network state, instead of the
NMConnectivityState. The advantage of the NMState is that is reflects
immediately the network state modification, while the connectivity
state is tested at a fixed frequency.
Add support for mate-terminal and xfce4-terminal with higher precedence
over xterm as it's likely people that have those want to use them.
They both use the gnome-terminal `-x` switch instead of xterm's `-e`.
