We preallocate buffers that are used after forked. That is because
malloc()/free() are not async-signal-safe and must not be used between
fork() and exec().
However, for the child process that exits without fork, valgrind wrongly
reports these buffers as leaked.
That can be suppressed with "--child-silent-after-fork=yes", but it is
cumbersome.
Work around by trying to allocate the buffers on the stack. At
least in the common cases where the pointers are small enough
so that we can reasonably do that.
If the buffers happen to be large, we still allocate them on the heap
and the problem still happens. Maybe we could have also allocated them
as thread_local, but currently glib doesn't use that.

We format the message into a string twice, once for each byte-order,
but only return the one corresponding to the last byte-order to the
caller. This means we need to free the first one.

For manual test coverage that would reproduce the bug fixed in !1902,
copy /bin/true (or any other harmless executable) to

do_exec() and g_execute() rely on being passed a NULL search path
if we intend to avoid searching the PATH, but since the refactoring
in commit 62ce66d4, this was never done. This resulted in some spawn
calls searching the PATH when it was not intended.
Spawn calls that go through the posix_spawn fast-path were unaffected.
The deprecated gtester utility, as used in GTK 3, relies on the
ability to run an executable from the current working directory by
omitting the G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH flag. This *mostly* worked, because
our fallback PATH ends with ".". However, if an executable of the
same name existed in /usr/bin or /bin, it would run that instead of the
intended test: in particular, GTK 3's build-time tests failed if
ImageMagick happens to be installed, because gtester would accidentally
run display(1) instead of testsuite/gdk/display.

That changes the return type of functions like g_object_ref() that can
break C++ applications like Webkit. Note that it is not an ABI break.
It must thus be opt-in the same way we did when adding this to
g_object_ref() for GNU C compilers in the first place. Unfortunately it
cannot be done directly in gmacros.h because GLIB_VERSION_2_68 is not
defined there, and gversionmacros.h cannot be included there because
there is some strict ordering in which those headers must be included.
This means that applications that does not define
GLIB_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED will still get an API break, so we encourage
them to declare their minimum requirement to avoir such issues in the
future too.
clang++ checks the 2nd args of __atomic_compare_exchange_n() has the
same type as the first, which fails when 2nd arg is nullptr which is of
type nullptr_t.
Ideally it should do `glib_typeof (*(atomic)) gapcae_oldval = (oldval);`
to ensure oldval and atomic have compatible types but unfortunately that
does not work neither.
Since that function never has been typesafe, and it is not even
attempting to use glib_typeof in case __ATOMIC_SEQ_CST is not defined,
drop it in __atomic_ case too.
Fixes issue #2226.
There are various places glib uses __typeof__ for type safety, but
that's a GNUC extension. C++11 has standard decltype() that does a
similar job, at least for cases we care about.
This avoids C++ code to always have to cast return value of
g_object_ref() which was causing type kind of error:
error: invalid conversion from ‘gpointer’ {aka ‘void*’} to
‘GstElementFactory*’ {aka ‘_GstElementFactory*’} [-fpermissive]
aclocal's ability to compare the version of macros and use the latest
version relies on the serial number being incremented on every change,
or at least on every functional change.

Run autoupdate on glib-2.0.m4 to change AC_TRY_RUN and AC_TRY_LINK into
the suggested alternative, and adjust the formatting a little bit.
The macros used in the alternative existed for long enough that there
shouldn't be a problem with backwards compatibility.

I found myself wanting to know the test that is currently being run,
where e.g. __func__ would be inconvenient to use, because e.g. the place
the string was needed was not in the test case function. Using __func__
also relies on the test function itself containing the whole path, while
loosing the "/" information that is part of the test path.
- use watcher auto start flag.
- use watch_name_on_connection_with_closures.
- use an existing service name for auto start.

Where the early call to g_socket_set_option() fails because of
check_socket() failing due to `inited` still being FALSE.
This brings 634b692 back into working order, by fixing the regression
introduced in 39f047e.
