This reverts commit 5aa03882ca.
It fails to compile on newer Meson versions with
`--fatal-meson-warnings` due to:
```
WARNING: Project targeting '>= 0.52.0' but tried to use feature introduced in '0.54.0': variables arg in declare_dependency.
gio/meson.build:833:0: ERROR: Fatal warnings enabled, aborting
```
That happens regardless of the fact that we’ve correctly limited the use
of the `variables` argument to only when building with Meson ≥ 0.56.
Unfortunately Meson can’t statically detect that the argument is
conditional.
Bumping GLib’s Meson dependency is too much work right now, so this MR
unfortunately has to be reverted.
This allows applications to get their value regardless whether glib is a
subproject or pkgconfig:
gio_dep = dependency('gio-2.0')
giomoduledir = gio_dep.get_variable('giomoduledir')
schemasdir = gio_dep.get_variable('schemasdir')
`mock-resolver.c` is a mock implementation of `GResolver` used in the
`network-address` tests. It returns resolver results, and implements
timeouts, as directed by the test calling it.
In particular, it allows the IPv4 and IPv6 resolver results to be
returned using independent delays. This allows code paths which deal
with IPv4 and IPv6 results being returned at different times to be
tested, as the ‘Happy Eyeballs’ spec mandates various hard-coded
timeouts for returning the best results it can in a reasonable
timeframe.
Previously, `mock-resolver.c` implemented the timeouts by handling
`lookup_by_name()` in a `GTask` worker thread, and calling `g_usleep()`
for the timeout. This seemed to cause occasional CI failures, such as
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/jobs/1843454, where a resolver
error would be returned rather than the expected results:
```
ok 52 /network-address/happy-eyeballs/ipv4-error-ipv6-first
\# GLib-GIO-DEBUG: IPv4 DNS error: IPv4 Broken
(/var/tmp/gitlab_runner/builds/Ff4WDDRj/0/GNOME/glib/_build/gio/tests/network-address:18428): GLib-GIO-DEBUG: 09:03:08.587: IPv4 DNS error: IPv4 Broken
Bail out! GLib-GIO:ERROR:../gio/tests/network-address.c:586:got_addr: assertion failed (error == NULL): IPv4 Broken (g-io-error-quark, 24)
stderr:
**
GLib-GIO:ERROR:../gio/tests/network-address.c:586:got_addr: assertion failed (error == NULL): IPv4 Broken (g-io-error-quark, 24)
```
While I’ve been unable to reproduce these failures locally, I suspect
they might be down to thread spawning occasionally taking long enough on
a CI runner to change the ordering of the timeouts, such that the ‘Happy
Eyeballs’ algorithm returns a different set of results from what the
test expects.
So, this commit rewrites part of `mock-resolver.c` to implement timeouts
in the main thread, rather than in a worker thread. That should
eliminate the delays in spawning threads, and should mean that the
timeout sources in `mock-resolver.c` are attached to the same
`GMainContext` as those from the ‘Happy Eyeballs’ algorithm which are
monitoring them, so a total order over the timeouts can be guaranteed.
Of course, I might be completely wrong since this is just a guess and I
can’t properly test it since I can’t reproduce the failure. Worth a try.

Test failures were previously ignored on macOS because there are 12
tests which consistently fail (and have not yet been fixed, because
there are no regularly active macOS maintainers for GLib; you could help
here!).
However, this means that new test failures can’t be spotted.
So, explicitly mark those 12 tests as `should_fail` on macOS, and then
make other test failures cause failure of the CI run.
We can track the process of fixing those 12 tests on #1392 and #1251.

As they use `g_test_dbus_*()`, they depend on dbus-daemon, so move them
to the part of the Meson file which lists those tests.
This disables them running on platforms which don’t have `dbus-daemon`
available. Arguably, this should be done by returning an error from
`g_test_dbus_up()` and then calling `g_test_skip()`, so the test is
correctly recorded as having been skipped. But that’s a fix for another
time.

The retry loop for acquiring the lock for the authentication cookie file
currently tries to acquire the lock for 0.5s, then gives up, assumes the
lock file is stale, and deletes it.
That’s great if the lock file *is* stale because it’s been left there by
a crashed process.
It’s not so great if the lock file just happens to have been there every
time this process checked, because the cookie file is highly contested
while (for example) running lots of parallel unit tests.
Check for that situation by comparing the mtime of the lock file and
continuing to retry if it’s changed.

Rather than tracking them with a counter. This should close the race in
tracking the finalisation of the tasks by the task worker thread.
There’s no way to synchronise with that thread as it’s internal to
`g_task_run_in_thread()`.

This allows the controller to explicitly be removed from the bus, in a
way that allows the caller to synchronise with it and know that all
other references to the controller should have been dropped (i.e. after
this method returns, there should be no in-flight D-Bus calls still
holding a reference to the object).
This is needed to be able to guarantee finalisation of the controller in
unit tests (and comparable real-world situations).

The resources data is generated for both GCC and MSVC toolchains, even
though we know beforehand which toolchain we're going to compile it for.
By dropping the data duplication we make the generated resources file
faster to compile, especially when dealing with large embedded data,
instead of relying on the C pre-processor to walk the whole file and
discard the branch we're not using.

If `GDebugControllerDBus` remains as the only, or default,
implementation of `GDebugController`, `dup_default()` cannot work.
`GDebugControllerDBus` requires a `GDBusConnection` at construction
time, which the `GIOModule` construction code can’t provide it.
Either we use a default D-Bus connection (but which one? and how would
it be changed by the user later if it was the wrong one?), or delegate
singleton handling of the `GDebugController` to the user.
The latter approach seems more flexible.

On Windows, dbus is launched by spawning the gdbus.exe executable on
demand from the gio module. When linked dynamically, the executable
path is guessed relatively to the gio DLL path. But when linked
statically, the only reference path available is the current
executable path. In this case, gdbus.exe is not necessarily in the same
folder as the current executable.
This patch solves the issue using the same algorithm as the one used
with process spawning in glib core source code two commits above.
This is intended to provide a uniform interface for controlling whether
the debug output from an application (or service) is emitted, typically
to journald, but actually to wherever the application chooses to output
it.
The main implementation of `GDebugController` is `GDebugControllerDBus`,
which is intended to be used on Linux. Other implementations may be
added in future for other platforms, or larger applications may want to
provide their own implementation which integrates with their ecosystem.
The `GDebugControllerDBus` implementation exposes a D-Bus interface at
`/org/gtk/Debugging` with a method to enable or disable debug
output at runtime.
This could be used by external harnesses, such as GNOME Builder or
systemd, to give a uniform way to get debug output from an application.

They are not allowed in the specification, and can lead to infinite

That’s a security issue if your application is accepting D-Bus messages
from untrusted peers (perhaps in a peer-to-peer connection). It’s not
exploitable when your application is connected to a bus (such as the
system or session buses), as the bus daemons (dbus-daemon or
dbus-broker) filter out such broken messages and don’t forward them.

Glib cannot be built statically on Windows because glib, gobject and gio
modules need to perform specific initialization when DLL are loaded and
cleanup when unloaded. Those initializations and cleanups are performed
using the DllMain function which is not called with static builds.
Issue is known for a while and solutions were already proposed but never
merged (see: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/issues/692). Last
patch is from version 2.36.x and since then the
"constructor/destructor" mechanism has been implemented and used in
other part of the system.
This patch takes back the old idea and updates it to the last version of
glib to allow static compilation on Windows.
WARNING: because DllMain doesn't exist anymore in static compilation
mode, there is no easy way of knowing when a Windows thread finishes.
This patch implements a workaround for glib threads created by calling
g_thread_new(), so all glib threads created through glib API will behave
exactly the same way in static and dynamic compilation modes.
Unfortunately, Windows threads created by using CreateThread() or
_beginthread/ex() will not work with glib TLS functions. If users need
absolutely to use a thread NOT created with glib API under Windows and
in static compilation mode, they should not use glib functions within
their thread or they may encounter memory leaks when the thread finishes.
This should not be an issue as users should use exclusively the glib API
to manipulate threads in order to be cross-platform compatible and this
would be very unlikely and cumbersome that they may mix up Windows native
threads API with glib one.

The gdbus-codegen tool generates documentation from the XML introspection
description of a D-Bus interface. Currently, only DocBook is supported at
the moment, but not every modern documentation generator can handle that
format. The reStructuredText format is a bit more well-supported,
especially in documentation generators for non-C languages.
Unlike DocBook, we get to make our own structure and conventions for how
we structure the documentation when using reStructuredText.
When parsing a comment we're adding <para> elements ourselves, but the
DocBook generator already wraps any block of text that does not start
with a <para> element with one.
xucred does not provide the peer pid id, but this can be fetched

While it’s not a supported public part of the API, exporting this
symbol from the library means we can easily test the DNS record parser,
which is important to do since it handles untrusted data from the
network.
This tests for #2503. It's fragile, but there is no non-fragile way to
test this. If the test breaks in the future, it will pass without
successfully testing the bug, not fail spuriously, so I think this is
OK.
We should run test_pass_fd twice, once using gspawn's fork/exec codepath
and once attempting to use its posix_spawn() codepath. There's no
guarantee we'll actually get the posix_spawn() codepath, but it works
for now on Linux.
For good measure, run it a third time with no flags at all.
This causes the test to fail if I separately break the fd remapping
implementation. Without this, we fail to test fd remapping on the
posix_spawn() codepath.

This is sad, but GResolver has one member variable for historical
reasons, to implement the reload signal. Since it offers a global
singleton, we should make sure it's really safe to use from multiple
threads at once.
This call was needed once upon a time, when GResolver had subclasses
that presumably relied on this. Nowadays, we have only
GThreadedResolver, which does not need it. res_init() is dangerous
because it modifies global state, so let's get rid of it.

We used to use a pipe for the dbus daemon stdout to read the defined
address, but that was already requiring a workaround to ensure that dbus
daemon children were then able to write to stdout.
However the current implementation is still causing troubles in some
cases in which the daemon is very verbose, leading to hangs when writing
to stdout.
As per this, just don't handle stdout ourself, but use instead a
specific pipe to get the address address. That can now be safely closed
once we've received the data we need.
This reverts commit d80adeaa96.

Perform strict bounds checking when reading data from the D-Bus message,
and propagate errors to the callers.
Previously, truncated D-Bus messages could cause out-of-bounds reads.
This is a security issue, but one which is only exploitable when
communicating with an untrusted peer (who might send malicious
messages). Almost all D-Bus traffic is with a session or system bus,
where the dbus-daemon or dbus-broker is trusted, and is known to have
already rejected malformed (malicious) messages.
Accordingly, this is only exploitable with peer-to-peer D-Bus
conversations with an untrusted peer.

Since
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib-networking/-/merge_requests/173,
there is now a really surprising implication to using a non-default
GTlsDatabase: your database could do nothing at all other than wrap the
default database, which you would expect to result in no behavior
changes, but in fact it causes fewer security checks to be performed
during certificate verification. This is because certificate
verification moved from GTlsDatabase to GTlsConnection, allowing for
more security checks to be performed. But if using a non-default
GTlsDatabase, we have to fall back to letting GTlsDatabase to the
verification, as before.
This is the best we can do. It's not a regression for applications,
because it means applications get the previous pre-2.72 behavior. But it
does mean that new security checks added in 2.72 are not applied, which
is unfortunate, so we should warn developers about this.
