Deprecate g_unix_mount_monitor_set_rate_limit() and turn it into a
no-op.
This function doesn't behave as advertised. It only controls rate
limiting for filesystem-based monitors. It has no impact over reporting
mount changes on Linux, for example, because those are based on polling
for changes in /proc (which doesn't use filesystem monitors). It also
has no impact on Mac OS because a library interface is used there.
This was added in https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=521946 in
order to be used by HAL, which is effectively dead. udisks no longer
uses this code at all.

This is a singleton, but we have a function called _new() to get it.

We install win32-software/autorun.exe (as test data for mime scanning)
only on UNIX builds, so don't attempt to chmod it on 'make install'

I love Emacs keyboard macros, used them to convert the list of
defines cleverly into a list of tests, then iterated and filled in
the necessary constructor arguments.
After ::shutdown, run the mainloop until all pending activity is

g_application_bind_busy_property() had the restriction that only one

Add an implementation of non-thread-emulated async close of a GIOStream
if either of the underlying stream objects support it.
This prevents us from calling close() functions from another thread on
an object that may not be expecting that. It also allows us to skip the
thread entirely in case our objects support a pure async close.

delayed_close_free() calls g_object_unref() on a variable that is
expected to possibly contain NULL (as indicated by the fact that the

GApplication set the prgname to the application's id when it was running
in service mode. This broke with the addition of new --app-id option,
because g_set_prgname() was called before parsing the options. Calling
it after option parsing doesn't work, because GOptionContext sets
prgname to argv[0] unconditionally.
Instead of changing the semantics of GOptionContext, simply remove this
functionality from GApplication. It is very unusual to have the prgname
set to the app id instead of the binary's name and might confuse people
when looking at logs etc.
When overriding local_command_line() from a subclass,
g_option_context_parse() might never be invokded. Thus, continue setting
the prgname to argv[0] in GApplication.

Balancing g_application_{un,}mark_busy() is non-trivial in some cases.

Make sure that we only match the _get_type() function name by
restricting the regexp to matching [A-Za-z0-9_]. We were matching on .*
before which means that if we had two _get_type() functions appearing on
a single line then we would get everything in between them included (by
the default rule of '*' being greedy).
This affected G_DECLARE_*_TYPE which puts several uses of _get_type()
into a single line.

When implementing blocking operations on top of
nonblocking sockets we should always first try to
perform the operation and then if needed handle
EAGAIN and wait with g_socket_wait_condition.
This is an optimization since we avoid calling
wait condition when it is not needed, but most
importantly this fixes hangs on win32 where some
events (in particular FD_WRITE) are only emitted
after the operation fails with EWOULDBLOCK.

Add a unit test that checks g_socket_new_from_fd by creating
a gsocket, obtaining its fd, duplicating the fd and then creating
a gsocket from the new fd. This shows a hang on win32 since the
gsocket created from the fd never receives the FD_WRITE event
because we wait for the condition without first trying to write
and windows signals the condition only after a EWOULDBLOCK error.

Fix two problems:
1) If g_socket_service_stop is called before the accept call is requeued,
then the reference count won't decrease and this code will hang forever:
while (G_OBJECT (service)->ref_count == ref_count)
g_main_context_iteration (NULL, TRUE);
2) Sometimes the testcase fails (maybe 1 in 200 times for me):
GLib-GIO:ERROR:socket-listener.c:73:connection_cb: assertion failed
(G_OBJECT (service)->ref_count == 2): (3 == 2)
Aborted (core dumped)
The problem is that depending on ordering, cancellation of the async
listener can require further main context iterations before it releases
the reference on the socket service. Furthermore, in some cases, it
requires at least one iteration.

Add G_IO_ERROR_CONNECTION_CLOSED as an alias for
G_IO_ERROR_BROKEN_PIPE, and also return it on ECONNRESET.
It doesn't really make sense to try to distinguish EPIPE and
ECONNRESET at the GLib level, since the exact choice of which error
gets returned in what conditions depends on the OS. Given that, we
ought to map the two errors to the same value, and since we're already
mapping EPIPE to G_IO_ERROR_BROKEN_PIPE, we need to map ECONNRESET to
that too. But the existing name doesn't really make sense for sockets,
so we add a new name.

This is a convenience method for creating a GNetworkAddress which is
guaranteed to return IPv4 and IPv6 loopback addresses. The program
cannot guarantee that 'localhost' will resolve to both types of
address, so programs which wish to connect to a local service over
either IPv4 or IPv6 must currently manually create an IPv4 and another
IPv6 socket, and detect which of the two are working. This new API
allows the existing GSocketConnectable machinery to be used to
automate that.

g_settings_has_signal_handlers() checks whether any of the signals has
pending handlers. However, g_signal_has_handler_pending() matches on
exact detail, even when passing 0. Subscribing to one of GSettings'
signals with a detail will fail this check and never connect to the
backend.
Fix this by calling has_handler_pending() with the key as detail as
well.

Add a GSocketListener test program. Currently the only test is a
regression test for bug 712570 (based on a standalone bug reproducer
provided by Ross Lagerwall).
If all users of a GThreadedSocketService release their references to the
service while a connection thread is running, the thread function will
release the last reference to the service which causes the finalize to
deadlock waiting for all threads to finish (because it's called from the
thread function).
To fix this, don't wait for all threads to finish in the service's
finalize method. Since the threads hold a reference to the service,
finalize should only be called when all threads are finished running (or
have unrefed the service and are about to finish).

If SSL 3.0 has been disabled (at the host, application, or library
level), then the "use-ssl3" property becomes a "fail-immediately"
property.
Despite the name, the point of the property wasn't really specifically
to use SSL 3.0; it was to allow fallback when talking to broken
servers that do SSL/TLS negotiation incorrectly and break when they
see unexpectedly-high version numbers. So if we can't fall back to SSL
3.0, then the "use-ssl3" property should fall back to TLS 1.0 instead
(since there are hosts that will reject a TLS 1.2 handshake, but
accept a TLS 1.0 one).
glib-networking is being updated to implement that behavior, so update
the documentation here.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=738633
In commit 8ff5668, we are subscribing the GSettings backend later, but this
meant that we need to initialize cache_lock earlier, as we might try to
use that lock before a change notification is issued to subscribe the
backend, which would then cause an access violation if we are trying to
read GSettings values, as that lock is used to access the Windows Registry.
Initialize cache_lock once we initialize the GSettings Registry backend,
and delete it upon finalize, so that g_settings_read_from_backend() can
proceed normally, even if the GSettings backend is not yet subscribed.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=740413
GSettings objects begin watching for changes as soon as they are created
in order that they can emit the "changed" signal.
In the case of dconf, if we want to be able to emit the changed signal,
we need to go on the bus and add some match rules. This requires
creating the dconf helper thread and also requires initialising GDBus
(which creates another thread).
Some users of GSettings are never interested in the "changed" signal.
One of these users is the glib-networking code that gets run every time
a new network connection is created.
Some users are reporting that they are annoyed that simply establishing
a network connection would spawn two extra threads and create a D-Bus
connection.
In order to avoid doing unnecessary work for these simple uses, delay
the subscription until we know that we will actually need to do it.
We do this in a simple way, using a simple argument: in order for the
user to care that a value changed then they must have:
1) watched for a change signal; and then
2) actually read a value
If the user didn't actually read a value then they cannot possibly be
interested in if the value changed or not (since they never knew the old
value to begin with and therefore would be unable to observe that it
ever changed, since they have nothing to compare the new value with).
This really is a behaviour change, however, and it does impact at least
one user: the 'monitor' functionality of the GSettings commandline tool,
which is interested in reporting changes without ever having known the
original values. We add a workaround to the commandline tool in order
to ensure that it continues to function properly.
It's also possible to argue that it is completely valid to have read a
value and _then_ established a change signal connection under the
(correct) assumption that it would not have been possible to miss a
change signal by virtue of not having returned to the mainloop.
Although this argument is true, this pattern is extremely non-idiomatic,
and the problem is easily avoided by doing things in the usual order.
We never really talked about change notification in the overview
documentation for GSettings, so it seems like now is a good time to add
some discussion, including the new rules for when one can expect change
signals to be emitted.

soon, resulting in it getting redefined by a later include. Fix this.

There are two consistent interpretations that could be taken for memory
handling of the 'invocation' parameter passed to the method_call() virtual
function of GDBusInterfaceVTable
- A reference is passed (transfer full) to the method_call() virtual function,
and that reference is then passed (transfer full) to the return_value/error
functions on GDBusMethodInvocation.
- An internal reference is retained from the point where method_call() is called
until the return_value/error function is called.
Since the return_value/error functions were already marked (transfer full),
we use the first interpretation, annotate the invocation parameter of
method call as (transfer full) and describe this in the documentation, along
with the idea that you are always supposed to call one of the return_value/error
functions.

da053e34 broke the tls-certificates test by requiring the backend to
implement g_tls_certificate_verify() (which the test TLS backend
didn't). Add a trivial implementation to make the test pass again;
we'll need something more complicated when we add tests that are
supposed to get errors.
So shortcut it.
I wrote this patch less as a performance optimization and more as a
clarification, so that people looking at the code can be assured of this
invariant.

Add an asynchronous version of _read_all().
This API is not fully consistent with the normal expectations of a
non-asynchronous version. Consistency between the sync and async version is
probably more important.
The API will still bind correctly, but access to all functionality will
not be available: specifically, in the case of an error, higher level
languages will be unable to determine how many bytes were successfully
read before the error. Most users will probably not want to use this
information anyway, so this is OK -- and if they do need the
information, then they can just write the loop for themselves.

Commit e24e89b accidentally ironically introduced a typo when replacing
the code with symbolic contents. Specifically, "Added Associations" was
replaced with "Default Applications" when reading defaults.list, giving
a warning about the file containing a "Default Applications" group.
If this was intended, it should have not been lumped in with a cleanup.
This patch changes the behavior of the following functions:
g_tls_certificate_new_from_pem
g_tls_certificate_new_from_file
g_tls_certificate_new_from_files
If more than one certificate is found it will try to load the chain.
It is assumed that the chain will be in the right order (top-level
certificate will be the last one in the file). If the chain cannot be
verified, the first certificate in the file will be returned as before.

g_thread_pool_push() only returns an error if it fails to spawn a new
thread. However, it unconditionally adds the task to its worker queue,
so:
• if _any_ threads exist in the pool, the task will eventually be
handled; and
• if _no_ threads exist in the pool, the task will be handled if one
is eventually successfully spawned.
If no more threads are ever spawned, the process probably has bigger
problems than a single GTask which is taking forever to complete.

For the GPtrArray example, several variables declared on the same line
is harder to read and to work with (to move, remove or comment a single
variable declaration).
Some desktop file directories, like /usr/local/share/applications may be
missing on some systems.
When we try to inotify on these directories, this will result in a
every-4-seconds poll being setup which is quite bad.
This is an issue that should be fixed in inotify itself but the problem
is much larger there. For now, we can work around it in GDesktopAppInfo
by refusing to monitor missing directories.
We may get some spurious notifications of changes in the case that
/usr/local/share or /usr/local/share/applications is created without
actually adding desktop files, but spurious changes can already be
reported in other cases, so that's OK. We won't get (user-visible)
notification for a simple case of a completely unrelated file being
created (however we cannot avoid the wakeup in this case due to how
inotify works). That's probably pretty theoretical, though, since files
in /usr don't change much and for the home directory we're likely to
have at least ~/.config and ~/.local existing.

We use "tweaks" structures to track how a particular directory impacts
the list of added, removed and default applications. We maintain this
set of tweaks for each directory, in a hash table, keyed by unaliased
mime type name, in order to facilitate fast lookups.
A typo in the logic for creating and maintaining the uniqueness of these
structures was causing the default app to be selected incorrectly from
time to time. Fix that.
If a g_socket_client_connect_async() operation is cancelled between the
CONNECTING and CONNECTED events (i.e. while in the
g_socket_connection_connect_async() call), the code in
g_socket_client_connected_callback() would previously unconditionally
loop round and try the next socket address from the address enumerator
(by calling enumerator_next_async()). This would correctly handle the
cancellation and return from the overall task — but not before emitting
a spurious RESOLVING event.
Avoid emitting the spurious RESOLVING event by explicitly handling
cancellation at the beginning of g_socket_client_connected_callback().
