643f2b348d g_file_new_for_commandline_arg: clarify encoding
Add a note to the documentation for g_file_new_for_commandline_arg()
that this function is intended to operate on strings already in the GLib
filename encoding on Windows.

This has been the case for a long time, but this documents the
requirement.

3981cddbf8 Require POSIX.1 (1990) compliance on unix
Assume unix platforms support the original POSIX.1 standard.
Specifically, assume that if G_OS_UNIX, then we have chown(),
getcwd(), getgrgid(), getpwuid(), link(), <grp.h>, <pwd.h>,
<sys/types.h>, <sys/uio.h>, <sys/wait.h>, and <unistd.h>.

Additionally, since all versions of Windows that we care about also
have <sys/types.h>, we can remove HAVE_SYS_TYPES_H checks everywhere.

Also remove one include of <sys/times.h>, and the corresponding
configure check, since the include is not currently needed (and may
always have just been a typo for <sys/time.h>).

dbf95a5ae9 measure_disk_usage: skip progress on NULL callback
In the real_..._async wrapper for GFile.measure_disk_usage, skip the
wrapping of the progress callback in the case that the user gave a NULL
callback to the async function.  This is a performance improvement
because the sync version won't have to do continuous sampling of the
clock to issue a call to the wrapper which will then do nothing.

Unfortunately, I made this simplifying assumption when writing the
wrapper, but forgot to actually implement it when making the sync call.
As a result, the wrapper is still called, and invokes the NULL callback,
causing a segfault.

Make sure we pass NULL if the user's callback was NULL.

9f1a0b57cd Ensure g_file_copy() does not temporarily expose private files
Previously, g_file_copy() would (on Unix) create files with the
default mode of 644.  For applications which might at user request
copy arbitrary private files such as ~/.ssh or /etc/shadow, a
world-readable copy would be temporarily exposed.

This patch is suboptimal in that it *only* fixes g_file_copy()
for the case where both source and destination are instances of
GLocalFile on Unix.

The reason for this is that the public GFile APIs for creating files
allow very limited control over the access permissions for the created
file; one can either say a file is "private" or not.  Fixing
this by adding e.g. g_file_create_with_attributes() would make sense,
except this would entail 8 new API calls for all the variants of
_create(), _create_async(), _replace(), _replace_async(),
_create_readwrite(), _create_readwrite_async(), _replace_readwrite(),
_replace_readwrite_async().  That can be done as a separate patch
later.

02aaef5a4d g_file_copy(): Clean up logic for info query
Previously, we called g_file_query_info() *again* on the source at the
very end of the copy.  This has the lame semantics that if the source
happened to be deleted, we would fail to apply attributes to the
destination.  This could even be a security flaw.

This commit changes things so that we query info from the source
*stream* after opening - i.e. on Unix we use the proper fstat() and
friends.  That way we operate more atomically.

In the *_async_thread() functions, call the corresponding synchronous

978571d854 g_file_copy(): Ensure G_FILE_COPY_OVERWRITE preserves permissions
We need to close the stream *before* applying the file modes, because
g_file_replace() allocates a temporary file.  At the moment we're
applying the modes to the extant file, then immediately rename()ing
over it with the default perms.

This regressed with commit 166766a89f.

The real fix here is to have g_file_create_with_info() so that we can
atomically create a file with the permissions we want.

f398bec5bc Add g_close(), use it
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().

e908b50371 gfile: don't report completion twice on g_file_load_contents error
When an error occurs while reading the file input stream in
g_file_load_contents (e.g. because the operation was cancelled), the
code is correctly calling g_task_return_error(), but in the callback
from the close operation, g_task_return_boolean() will be called again.

Code that cleans up its state in the async callback will then be called
twice, leading to invalid memory access.

5eba978497 GFile: Add Btrfs clone ioctl support
The attached patch adds support for the btrfs "clone" ioctl which
makes Copy-on-Write reflinks, resulting in cheap O(1) copies when
source/destination are on the same filesystem. The ioctl itself is
quite straightforward, and GNU coreutils has had support since 7.5
(--reflink=auto --sparse=auto).

The ioctl only operates on regular files and symlinks, and always
follows symlinks; checks have been added accordingly.

This patch would be very useful for everyone who uses btrfs
filesystems (Meego folks for instance). On systems that don't have
btrfs, or if the the source is not on a btrfs filesystem, the ioctl
returns EINVAL, and the fallback code is triggered. Hence this will
cause no problems for non-btrfs users.

f8532a13e2 gio: Add g_async_result_legacy_propagate_error()
Finish deprecating the "handle GSimpleAsyncResult errors in the

deprecation warnings) by adding a "legacy" GAsyncResult method
to do it in those classes/methods where it had been traditionally

(This applies only to wrapper methods; in cases where an _async
vmethod explicitly uses GSimpleAsyncResult, its corresponding _finish
vmethod still uses g_simple_async_result_propagate_error.)

Originally, the standard idiom with GSimpleAsyncResult was to handle
all errors in the _finish wrapper function, so that vmethods only had
to deal with successful results. But this means that chaining up to a
parent _finish vmethod won't work correctly. Fix this by also checking
for errors in all the relevant vmethods. (We have to redundantly check
in both the vmethod and the wrapper to preserve compatibility.)

e56498ee0b Fix usage of _GNU_SOURCE
_GNU_SOURCE must be defined before including any other (system)
header, so defining it in glib-unix.h (and hoping no one has included
anything else before that) is wrong. And the "#define _USE_GNU"
workaround for this problem in gnetworkingprivate.h is even wronger
(and still prone to failure anyway due to single-include guards).

Fix this by defining _GNU_SOURCE in config.h when building against
glibc. In theory this is bad because new releases of glibc may include
symbols that conflict with glib symbols, which could then cause
compile failures. However, most people only see new releases of glibc
when they upgrade their distro, at which point they also generally get

835f9cb310 [introspection] Move over annotations
Move all the annotations over from gobject-introspection.

They will not be used directly by the introspection scanner for now,
instead they will be extracted by a script and updated manually
until introspection is properly integrated into the glib build

39cd766e8e Use G_DEFINE_INTERFACE in gio
Note: Since we export types with Iface in the name rather than
Interface we have to use some typedefs to make this work. New
interfaces should probably use Interface as the public name.

99a1c47343 Allow interaction when unmounting mounts
For details, see bug 587482. The new api:

 - Provide new _with_operation() variants of all unmount and eject methods

 - Add GMountOperation::show-processes signal
   - this can be used to show processes blocking an unmount operation

 - Deprecate all unmount and eject methods

 - Add g_drive_can_start_degraded() method
   - this is to avoid auto-starting degraded drives

 - Make g_drive_stop() resp. g_file_stop_mountable() take a GMountOperation
   - these ops were recently added and not yet public API so it's fine
     to change how they work

 - Provide a way to poll mountable files, e.g. g_file_poll_mountable()

 - Add some missing file attributes for mountable files
  - G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_MOUNTABLE_UNIX_DEVICE_FILE
    - needed for the GDU Nautilus extensions to format a volume
  - G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_MOUNTABLE_CAN_START_DEGRADED:
    - mimics g_drive_can_start_degraded()
  - G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_MOUNTABLE_CAN_POLL:
    - mimics g_drive_can_poll_for_media()
  - G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_MOUNTABLE_IS_MEDIA_CHECK_AUTOMATIC
    - mimics g_drive_is_media_check_automatic()

65cc5d895a Support g_main_context_push_thread_default() in gio
GFile allows for the possibility that external implementations may not
support thread-default contexts yet, via
g_file_supports_thread_contexts(). GVolumeMonitor is not yet
thread-default-context aware.

Add a test program to verify that basic gio async ops work correctly
in non-default contexts.

File attribute namespaces are delimited with "::", but
build_attribute_list_for_copy only used ":", so we didn't copy

fae755e056 Bug 585591 – Starting/stopping drives
Add API for starting/stopping drives. This new API will enable
GVolumeMonitor and GVfs implementations to add support for the
following features

 1. Powering down external hard disk enclosures / drives

 2. Starting/stopping multi-disk devices (such as RAID/btrfs/ZFS)

 3. Connecting/disconnecting iSCSI devices

 4. Reacting to the user pressing e.g. the "remove drive" button on
    a IBM/Lenovo Ultrabay: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Ultrabay

See the bug for the corresponding GVfs and Nautilus changes.

29a4a0a44d only query file info in g_file_copy() when we need it
The default implementation of g_file_copy() checked the size of the file
to copy to give useful progress updates unconditionally. This can cause
long delays on 1-connection FTP servers while it tries to open a second
connection before it returns EBUSY. This patch makes this query only
happen when we actually send progress updates.
