Now that we're a GActionMap the story about propagating signals from our
(now-constant) internal action group is vastly simplified. If someone
calls g_application_set_action_group() then signals will stop working --
but this function is deprecated and they never worked before, so no big
loss there.

We provide a mechanism by which a 'platform' (eg: Gtk) can register some
hook functions to be called to collect platform-data at the point of
sending an outgoing action activation request and also to inform the
platform of this data on incoming requests (before and after dispatching
the actual request).
This can be used for forwarding timestamp and startup-notification
information (as is presently done in GApplication) but the before/after
hook could also be used for acquiring/releasing the Gdk lock or other
similar things.

g_main_loop_quit() only quits mainloops that are currently running --
not ones that may run in the future. The way the gdbus-threading tests
are written can possibly result in a call to g_main_loop_quit() before
g_main_loop_run() has started.
The mainloops aren't actually used for anything other than signalling
the completion of the threads, so just use g_thread_join() for that.

GDBusConnection recently changed to dispatching its GDestroyNotify calls
from an idle instead of on-the-spot. Under the previous regime, we
would destroy-notify the action group export of a GtkApplicationWindow
at the point it was removed from the application (ie: slightly before
being disposed).
With the destroy notify now deferred to an idle, the window has already
been disposed, so the signal handlers have already been disconnected.
Avoid the problem by dropping our use of signal IDs and just do
g_signal_handlers_disconnect_by_func(), which doesn't complain if there
is no connection.
This was causing the following critical when running bloatpad twice:
GLib-CRITICAL **: g_hash_table_insert_internal: assertion `hash_table != NULL' failed
Clean up the docs for GApplication and related classes.
I'm no longer writing documentation for the structure type of classes
and interfaces. See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=665926
for discussin on the correct way forward on this point.
Also: stop putting gtk-doc comments in installed headers.
Have one simple _get() API that returns the group immediately, in an
empty state. The group is initialised on the first attempt to interact
with it.
Leave a secret 'back door' for GApplication to do a blocking
initialisation.
GDBusConnection now dispatches GDestroyNotify calls back to the
mainloop. Adding an idle to the mainloop is O(n) in the number of idles
already there. We therefore need to periodically empty the mainloop to
avoid quadratic behaviour with a very large 'n'.
Exporting can only be done relative to a particular given main context
and all interaction with the action group must be on that same context.
Fix up the implementation so that the user can specify that context with
the normal (thread default) mechanism and document the limitation on the
API.
Adjust the testcase to adhere to the documentation limitations. It
passes now.
Sometimes randa and randb end up having the same state, causing them to
return the same stream of 'random numbers'. This is a problem for the
testcase that is looping to find unequal menus.
If we find ourselves in this state, throw one of the random generators
away and recreate it so we have a better chance of getting some unequal
menus.
Give it the same treatment as the exporter for GActionGroup just got.
There is a wart here: the exporter attempt to re-enter GDBusConnection
when it is freed in order to cancel outstanding name watches.
GDBusConnection holds its own lock while calling the destroy notify, so
the attempt at reentrancy results in a deadlock.
We have a workaround to deal with that for now...
Allow the menu to be changed after registration. This is quite useful
for setting up the menus from the ::startup handler instead of having to
do it before registration because it lets you skip the work if you're
not the primary instance.
The error handling on register() was just totally out of hand before.
Clean that mess up.
Take out the menu export for now as well. It will be added back again
later.
Rename g_application_set_menu to g_application_set_app_menu and make a
couple of fixups. Clarify the documentation about exactly what this
menu is meant to be.
Add g_application_set_menubar and document that as well.
This is an interface to represent GSimpleActionGroup-like objects (ie:
those GActionGroups that operate by containing a number of named GAction
instances).
Create a 'mirror' model of the proxy for the testcase. In addition to
testing that the proxy model emits the proper signals this also keeps
the proxy alive (by holding references to it from the mirror).
The previous code would create the submenu proxies and destroy them
right away (from the recursive step in the equality comparison
functions). This means that the subscription would go out over D-Bus
and the proxy would be destroyed before it returned. Keeping the model
alive allows it to be actually updated.
Only resolve the link at the point that we pull it through the API
rather than at the point that we first are told about it. This reduces
the lifespan of subscriptions and, more importantly, avoids a tricky
reference cycle issue.
Each test needs to remove the sources that it attaches
to the default main context, or else things will work
fine in isolation, but go bad in a full test run.
The code assumes in various places that ':' does not occur
in attribute names. We are a little more strict than that,
and only allow lowercase ASCII, digits and '-'.
There are no public 'exporter' objects, so don't allude to them
in the function names. At the same time, we want to make it clear
that these functions are D-Bus specific.
The new APIs are
g_action_group_dbus_export_start
g_action_group_dbus_export_query
g_action_group_dbus_export_stop
g_menu_model_dbus_export_start
g_menu_model_dbus_export_query

After questioning the semantics of flush on IRC, it seemed necessary to
clarify what flushing is supposed to do. The Linux man page for fflush()
seemed to cover it perfectly, so I just copied it.
I did not add the "via the underlying write mechanism" part as that in
my opinion is not something subclasses should need to guarantee.
This patch makes GFileMonitor to emit EVENT_CHANGES_DONE_HINT when
EVENT_CREATED is emitted but the file is not opened for writing.
On file moves across different mounted volumes, inotify will always emit
IN_CREATE and IN_CLOSE_WRITE (plus other events).
This translates into GIO's _EVENT_CREATED and _EVENT_CHANGES_DONE_HINT.
On file moves across the same mounted volumes, inotify will emit
IN_MOVED_FROM/IN_MOVED_TO which will be translated into
_EVENT_DELETED/_EVENT_CREATED GIO's side. No _EVENT_CHANGES_DONE_HINT is
emited afterwards.
Under such circumstances a file indexer does not know when actually the
file is ready to be indexed, either waiting too much or triggering the
indexing twice. On small devices it's not advisable.

Any method that has its prefix'd argument as its first parameter will be
interpreted by introspection as a method. We don't want this, so we need
to swap the first two parameters.
This is strictly redundant now that we can get the ID from the schema
itself. Its only other purpose was to get the schema name from the
set_property() call to the constructed() call and we can avoid that by
doing the schema lookup at the time of the property being set.
Instead of building a reversed linked list by prepending in order and
then reversing it at the end, prepend in reverse by iterating backwards
through the directories (to get a list in-order when we're done).
These functions no longer have anything to do with GSettings itself, so

GSettings still wants direct access to the GSettingsSchemaKey structure,

My previous fix for GNOME#662100 was incomplete: it seems that with some
timings, the stream can be closed with an async read in-flight. This
can make the read fail immediately with G_IO_ERROR_CLOSED instead of
becoming cancelled.
This happens reliably on an embedded device, and rarely on my laptop;
repeating the test 100 times in quick succession reliably reproduces
the bug on my laptop.
It seems as though what we really want is to ignore read errors, once
we've established that we want to close the connection anyway - this
means that after asking to close, you're immune to exit-on-close,
which seems like a good rule.
An additional subtlety is that continuing to read after we know we
want to close is still required, otherwise we'll never emit ::closed.

Strictly speaking, neither of the two uses that aren't under the lock
*needs* to be atomic, but it seems better to be obviously correct (and
we save another 4 bytes of struct).
One of these uses is in g_dbus_connection_is_closed(), any use of which
is inherently a race condition anyway.
The other is g_dbus_connection_flush_sync, which as far as I can tell
just needs a best-effort check, to not waste effort on a connection that
has been closed for a while (but I could be wrong).
I removed the check for the closed flag altogether in
g_dbus_connection_send_message_with_reply_unlocked, because it turns out
to be redundant with one in g_dbus_connection_send_message_unlocked,
which is called immediately after.
g_dbus_connection_close_sync held the lock to check the closed flag,
which is no longer needed.
As far as I can tell, the only reason why the lock is still desirable
when setting the closed flag is so that remove_match_rule can't fail
by racing with close notification from the worker thread - but
on_worker_closed needs to hold the lock anyway, to deal with other
data structures, so there's no point in trying to eliminate the
requirement to hold the lock.

Also document which fields require such a check in order to have correct

This usage doesn't matches the GInitable documentation, which suggests
use of a GError - but using an uninitialized GDBusConnection is
programming error, and not usefully recoverable. (The GInitable
documentation may have been a mistake - GNOME#662208.) Also, not all of
the places where we need it can raise a GError.
The check serves a dual purpose: it turns a non-deterministic crash into
a deterministic critical warning, and is also a memory barrier for
thread-safety. All of these functions dereference or return fields that
are meant to be protected by FLAG_INITIALIZED, so they could crash or
return an undefined value to their caller without this, if called from a
thread that isn't the one that called initable_init() (although I can't
think of any way to do that without encountering a memory barrier,
undefined behaviour, or a race condition that leads to undefined
behaviour if the non-initializing thread wins the race).
One exception is that initable_init() itself makes a synchronous call.
We deal with that by passing new internal flags up the call stack, to
reassure g_dbus_connection_send_message_unlocked() that it can go ahead.

session bus at approximately the same time. imsettings then hangs for
about 20 seconds before timing out the message.
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dbus/2011-September/014717.html
imsettings behaviour could be improved as described in that thread,
but I think this is a glib bug. I've also come up with the attached
patch which fixes it.

Add g_main_context_ref_thread_default(), which always returns a
reffed GMainContext, rather than sometimes returning a (non-reffed)
GMainContext, and sometimes returning NULL. This simplifies the
bookkeeping in any code that needs to keep a reference to the
thread-default context for a while.

Since it is valid for a D-Bus interface / service to add new methods,
signals or properties we must NEVER warn about unknown properties or
drop unknown signals or disallow unknown method invocations when we
have an expected interface.
So this means that the expected_interface machinery is only useful for
checking that the service didn't break ABI.
Also update the docs so it is clear exactly what it means to have an
expected interface.

This reverts commit c841c2ce3f.
This approach has been an unmitigated disaster. We're getting all sorts
of crashes due to functions that are returning NULL because they can't
find the schema for the default value. The people who get these crashes
are then confused about the root cause of the problem and waste a lot of
time trying to figure it out.
Until we find a better solution, we should go back to what we had
before.

Previously, we took the default application for a particular mimetype
from the system and copied it into the user's configuration as the
default there.
Instead of doing that we leave the user's default unset, and at time of
use, if the user has no explicitly-set default value, we use the system
default.
This avoids complicated situations where inappropriate applications were
being set as the default in the user's configuration.

The documentation for G_TYPE_CHAR says:
"The type designated by G_TYPE_CHAR is unconditionally an 8-bit signed
integer."
However the return value for g_value_get_char() was just "char" which
in C has an unspecified signedness; on e.g. x86 it's signed (which
matches the GType), but on e.g. PowerPC or ARM, it's not.
We can't break the old API, so we need to suck it up and add new API.

Commit afa82ae805 introduced a compilation
regression on BSD systems that use the sysctl(3) interface; we need to
declare the buffer len in _g_get_unix_mount_points()
BZ #659528
In registration_data_export_interface(), the object_path is obtained using:
object_path = g_dbus_object_get_object_path (G_DBUS_OBJECT (data->object));
But when exporting an object uniquely, the object_path is not assigned
to the GDBusObject until after all the interfaces are exported.
Therefore, registration_data_export_interface() is trying to export
the interface on the non-unique object path, which can lead to
run-time errors if an object already exists on that path.
Instead, registration_data_export_interface() should be passed the
object_path explicitly, as is done in
g_dbus_object_manager_server_export_unlocked().

Ensure that the output/target stream in a g_output_stream_splice_async()
operation is marked as closed if G_OUTPUT_STREAM_SPLICE_CLOSE_TARGET is
passed to g_output_stream_splice_async(). This removes the possibility of
local FDs being closed twice because the stream's not marked as closed.
This is implemented by calling g_output_stream_close() from within
g_output_stream_splice_async() instead of calling the stream's close_fn()
directly.

We can't safely close the output part of the I/O stream until any

num_writes_pending was a counter, but it only took values 0 or 1, so make
it a boolean: it would never make sense to be trying to write out two
messages at the same time (they'd get interleaved).
Similarly, we can never be writing and flushing at the same time (that'd
mean we were flushing halfway through a message, which would be pointless)
so combine it with flush_pending too, calling the result output_pending.
Also assert that it takes the expected value whenever we change it,
and document the locking discipline used for it, including a subtle
case in write_message_in_idle_cb where it's not obvious at first glance
why we don't need the lock.
(Having the combined boolean at the top of the block of write-related
struct members improves struct packing on 64-bit platforms, by packing
read_num_ancillary_messages and output_pending into one word.)

Historically we've added random symbols to the public API with warnings
that they're private; examples are:
glib_gettext(), glib_pgettext()
g_thread_functions_for_glib_use, g_thread_use_default_impl, etc.
And we almost added "GWakeup" to public API just to share between glib and
gio.
This new glib__private__() API exports a hidden vtable, and adds a macro
GLIB_PRIVATE_CALL() that makes it generally convenient to use.
This adds an extremely tiny cost for the double indirection; but it has
the benefit that we don't need to either:
1) compile the code into both glib and gio (like GWakeup), with the
inefficiency that implies.
2) Export a "do not use this" symbol; the serious problem with this is
that someone CAN use it pretty easily. Particularly if we document
it. It's far, far harder to peek into a structure without a public
header file.

g_thread_gettime() is an undocumented public function pointer that
points to a function that returns the monotonic time in nanoseconds.
g_get_monotonic_time() does the same in microseconds, so it can be used
instead.
GLib had one internal user in GFileMonitor that only cared about
millisecond accuracy; it has been ported to g_get_monotonic_time().
In particular, remove the libasyncns import, which was only used by
GUnixResolver, which is only used when threads are not available.
Likewise remove GWin32Resolver, and the hacky broken non-threaded

When g_settings_apply() is called on a delayed settings backend and
there is a D-Bus error when communicating with dconf-service, recent
versions of the dconf GSettingsBackend call a function in GLib that
improperly delivered the signal directly instead of using
g_main_context_invoke().
This patch fixes this function to route in the same way as the others so
that the signal is dispatched in the proper GMainContext.
- getmntinfo can take struct statfs or statvfs depending on the
OS. Use getvfsstat and if not found getfsstat instead. Idea from

The threaded tests are using the default main context in the worker
thread, but were not g_main_context_acquire()ing it first, which meant
that g_tls_interaction_invoke_ask_password() in the main thread would
sometimes succeed in acquiring it itself and thus performing the
operation in the wrong thread. Fix that.
Also, we can't unref the loop from the worker thread, because the main
thread isn't holding a reference on it, and so it might end up being
destroyed while that thread is still inside g_main_loop_quit().
(which shouldn't ever have been part of the API. Grr.)
Solaris /etc/services doesn't even have "http", which was causing
tests/network-address to fail...
On Solaris, getsockname() on an unconnected socket gives an addrlen of
0 and doesn't set the sockaddr. So use the SO_DOMAIN sockopt to find
the socket family in that case. (SO_DOMAIN doesn't exist everywhere,
so we can't use it unconditionally. Also, we have to only use it if
getsockname() fails, since SO_DOMAIN returns a bogus value for
accept()ed sockets on both Linux and Solaris...)
Also, link libgio to -lresolv explicitly, rather than depending on
getting it implicitly via the libasyncns build (which should
eventually be going away).
