This test asserts that g_file_set_contents_full() will fail when used
on a read-only file, but processes with CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE on Linux or
uid 0 on traditional Unix can and do ignore DAC permissions.

For legacy reasons, Meson's gtk-doc helper script launches the
gtkdoc-mkhtml tool in the `html` directory under the build root. This
means that all paths must be relative to that location.
This is a regression from !1686. The tmp_error is no longer valid after
it is "considered" and cannot be used at this point. We should print the
error earlier instead.
Fixes#2233
This incidentally also exercises the intended pattern for sending fds in
a D-Bus message: the fd list is meant to contain exactly those fds that
are referenced by a handle (type 'h') in the body of the message, with
numeric handle value n corresponding to g_unix_fd_list_peek_fds(...)[n].
Being able to send and receive file descriptors that are not referenced by
a handle (as in OpenFile here) is a quirk of the GDBus API, and while it's
entirely possible in the wire protocol, other D-Bus implementations like
libdbus and sd-bus typically don't provide APIs that make this possible.

In the D-Bus wire protocol, the handle type (G_VARIANT_TYPE_HANDLE, h)
is intended to be an index/pointer into the implementation's closest
equivalent of GUnixFDList: its numeric value has no semantic meaning
(in the same way that the numeric values of pointers have no semantic
meaning), but a handle with value n acts as a reference to the nth fd
in the fd list.
GDBus provides a fairly direct mapping from the wire protocol to the
C API, which makes it technically possible to attach and use fds
without ever referring to them in the message body, and some
GLib-centric D-Bus APIs rely on this.
However, the other major implementations of D-Bus (libdbus and sd-bus)
transparently replace file descriptors with handles when building
messages, and transparently replace handles with file descriptors when
parsing messages. This means they cannot implement D-Bus APIs that do
not follow the conventional meaning of handles as indexes/pointers into
an equivalent of GUnixFDList.
For interoperability, we should encourage D-Bus API designers to follow
the convention, even though code written against GDBus doesn't strictly
need to do so.

Suppose we are sending a 5K message with fds (so data->blob points
to 5K of data, data->blob_size is 5K, and fd_list is non-null), but
the kernel is only accepting up to 4K with each sendmsg().
The first time we get into write_message_continue_writing(),
data->total_written will be 0. We will try to write the entire message,
plus the attached file descriptors; or if the stream doesn't support
fd-passing (not a socket), we need to fail with
"Tried sending a file descriptor on unsupported stream".
Because the kernel didn't accept the entire message, we come back in.
This time, we won't enter the Unix-specific block that involves sending
fds, because now data->total_written is 4K, and it would be wrong to try
to attach the same fds again. However, we also need to avoid failing
with "Tried sending a file descriptor on unsupported stream" in this
case. We just want to write out the data of the rest of the message,
starting from (blob + total_written) (in this exaple, the last 1K).

This test ensures that g_socket_client_connect_to_host_async() fails if
it is cancelled, but it's not cancelled until after 1 millisecond. Our
CI testers are hitting that race window, and Milan is able to reproduce
the crash locally as well. Switching it from 1ms to 0ms is enough for
Milan to avoid the crash, but not enough for our CI, so let's move the
cancellation to a GSocketClientEvent callback where the timing is
completely deterministic.

If there is a file descriptor source that has a lower priority
than the one for sources that are going to be dispatched,
all subsequent file descriptor sources (internally sorted by
file descriptor identifier) do not get an update in their GPollRec
and later on wrong sources can be dispatched.
Fix this by first finding the first GPollRec that matches the current
GPollFD, instead of relying on it to be the current one. At
the same time, document the assumptions about the ordering of the
file descriptor records and array and make explicit in the documentation
that the array needs to be passed to g_main_context_check() as it was
received from g_main_context_query().
Added a new test that reproduces the bug by creating two file
descriptor sources and an idle one. Since the first
file descriptor created has a lower identifier and a low priority,
the second one is not dispatched even when it has the same, higher,
priority as the idle source. After fixing this bug, both
higher priority sources are dispatched as expected.
While this patch was written independently, a similar fix for this
bug was first submitted by Eugene M in GNOME/glib!562. Having a
second fix that basically does the same is a reassurance that we
are in the right here.

This allows compilers to check the format placeholders properly. It
fixes compilation on clang, which gives a warning about untrusted
strings being passed on to subsequent functions which require format
placeholders.

Just like gcc, clang has supported `__typeof__` for a long time, so
allow it to be used. This fixes compilation of `gio/gcredentials.c` on
macOS (which uses clang by default).
I don’t know which version clang started supporting `__typeof__` in, so
there’s no version check. One can be added in future if there are
problems.
This fixes commit 5b2bee3f53.

The addition causes the date to shift
forward into 1st of the next month, because a 0-based offset
is compared to be "more than" the days in the month instead of "more than
or equal to".
This is triggered by corner-cases where transition date is 6 days
off the end of the month and our calculations put it at N+1th day of the
month (where N is the number of days in the month). The subtraction should
be triggered to move the date back a week, putting it 6 days off the end;
for example, October 25 for CET DST transition; but due to incorrect comparison
the date isn't shifted back, we add 31 days to October 1st and end up
at November 1st).
Fixes issue #2215.
This reverts commit 851241f19a.
That commit avoids a performance regression but introduces a behavior regression:
changes to /etc/localtime have no effect for the remaining of the application's
runtime.
With the optimization introduced by the previous commit, we can pass NULL to
g_time_zone_new() repeatedly with no performance drawback, so we no longer have
to workaround this case.
Fixes: #2224
We cache GTimeZone instances to avoid expensive construction when the
same id is requested again.
However, if the NULL id is passed to g_time_zone_new(), we always
construct a new instance for the default/fallback timezone.
With the recent introduction of some heavy calculations[1], repeated
instance construction in such cases has visible performance impact in
nautilus list view and other such GtkTreeView consumers.
To avoid this, cache reference to a constructed default timezone and
use it the next time g_time_zone_new() is called with NULL argument,
as long as the default identifier doesn't change. We already did the
same for the local timezone[2].

The win32 implementation of `g_getenv()` uses GSlice (from within
GQuark), which results in a deadlock when examining the `G_SLICE`
environment variable.

Fixes: #2225
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]
