Sometimes this test was timing out due to the file monitor notifications
taking longer than the arbitrary 2s delay before ending the test and
checking its results at the end of `iclosed_cb()`.
Avoid that timing-dependence by ending the test when the expected file
monitor notifications are seen, or after a 10s timeout (if so, the test
is failed).
This makes the test run 4× faster in the normal case, as it’s no longer
waiting for a timeout to elapse if the file monitor notifications come
in sooner.

The test added for #1841 spawned 100000 threads. That was fine on a
desktop machine, but on a heavily loaded CI machine, it could result in
large (and unpredictable) slowdowns, resulting in the test taking over
120s in about 1 in 5 runs, and hence failing that CI pipeline due to a
timeout. When passing normally on CI, the test would take around 90s.
Here’s a histogram of time per iteration on a failing (timed out) test
run. Each iteration is one thread spawn:

There’s no actual need for the test to spawn 100000 threads, so rewrite
it to reuse a single thread, and pass new data to that thread.
Reverting the original commit (e4a690f5dd) reproduces the failure on
100 out of 100 test runs with this commit applied, so the test still
works.
The test now takes 3s, rather than 11s, to run on my computer, and has
passed when run with `meson test --repeat 1000 cancellable`.

When multiple tests were run in parallel, this would race on its access
to `~/.dbus-keyrings` to authenticate with the D-Bus server, since the
keyring directory was not appropriately sandboxed to the unit test.

Commit 721e385 left one remaining race in the filter test, with a
comment associated with it. Unfortunately, the (seemingly unrelated)
changes in #1841 to `GCancellable` seem to have made this remaining race
a lot more likely to fail on FreeBSD than before.
What’s likely to have happened (although I was unable to reproduce the
failure, due to not having a FreeBSD system; I was only able to
reproduce the problem as a 3/1000 failure on Linux, which is still worth
fixing) is that the atomic write of the `FilterData.serial` to be
expected by the filter function sometimes happened after the filter
function had executed, so the expected message was dropped and didn’t
result in an update to the `FilterData` state.
Rework the test so that instead of setting some expectations (on
`FilterData`) in one thread and then checking them in another thread,
the worker thread just unconditionally returns messages from the filter
function to the main thread, and then the main thread checks whether the
expected one has been filtered.
With this change applied, the `gdbus-connection` test passes 5000 times
in a row for me, on Linux; and doesn’t seem to fail any more on the
FreeBSD CI machines over a few runs. (Previously it failed on 4/5 runs.)

The GIO tests memory-monitor-dbus and memory-monitor-portal use a number
of third party Python modules that may not be present when running the
test case.
Instead of failing due to missing imports, catch the ImportError and
mock a test case that skips. This can't use the usual unittest.skip
logic because the test case class itself uses a 3rd party module.
Closes#2083.
There are two memory monitor tests that use Python's unittest module directly,
but GLib tests should be outputting TAP. Use the embedded TAPTestRunner to
ensure that TAP is output for these tests too.
D-Bus filter functions run in a worker thread. The `gdbus-connection`
test was sharing a `FilterData` struct between the main thread and the
filter function, which was occasionally (on the order of 0.01% of test
runs) causing spurious test failures due to racing on reads/writes of
`num_handled`.

There’s a minor race condition between cancellation of a `GCancellable`,
and disposal/finalisation of a `GCancellableSource` in another thread.
Thread A Thread B
g_cancellable_cancel(C)
→cancellable_source_cancelled(C, S)
g_source_unref(S)
cancellable_source_dispose(S)
→→g_source_ref(S)
→→# S is invalid at this point; crash
Thankfully, the `GCancellable` sets `cancelled_running` while it’s
emitting the `cancelled` signal, so if `cancellable_source_dispose()` is
called while that’s high, we know that the thread which is doing the
cancellation has already started (or is committed to starting) calling
`cancellable_source_cancelled()`.
Fix the race by resurrecting the `GCancellableSource` in
`cancellable_source_dispose()`, and signalling this using
`GCancellableSource.resurrected_during_cancellation`. Check for that
flag in `cancellable_source_cancelled()` and ignore cancellation if it’s
set.
The modifications to `resurrected_during_cancellation` and the
cancellable source’s refcount have to be done with `cancellable_mutex`
held so that they are seen atomically by each thread. This should not
affect performance too much, as it only happens during cancellation or
disposal of a `GCancellableSource`.

Clang warns about string+int not appending to the string (to try and
catch newbie mistakes). While this test didn’t expect that to happen, it
was substituting the same constant string in multiple places for no good
reason. Switch to a single static const string, which should also fix
the compiler warning.
We have to define the string length since it’s used in various
stack-allocated array lengths. This is the easiest fix without more
major refactoring of the test to be less 90s.
Also make things a bit more static.

When testing that signals are delivered to the correct thread, and are
delivered the correct number of times, call `EmitSignal()` on the
`gdbus-testserver` to trigger a signal emission, and listen for that.
Previously, the code listened for `NameOwnerChanged` and connected to
the bus again to trigger emission of that. The problem with that is that
other things happening on the bus (for example, an old
`gdbus-testserver` instance disconnecting) can cause `NameOwnerChanged`
signal emissions. Sometimes, the `gdbus-threading` test was failing the
`signal_count == 1` assertion due to receiving more than one
`NameOwnerChanged` emission.

As with the previous commit, don’t stop iterating the `context` in
`test_delivery_in_thread_func()` until the unsubscription from a signal
is complete, and hence there’s a guarantee that no callbacks are pending
in the `thread_context`.
This commit uses the `GDestroyNotify` for
`g_dbus_connection_signal_subscribe()` as a synchronisation message from
the D-Bus worker thread to the `test_delivery_in_thread_func()` thread
to notify of signal unsubscription.

Previously, the code in `ensure_gdbus_testserver_up()` created a proxy
object and watched its `name-owner` to see when the
`com.example.TestService` name appeared.
This ended up subscribing to three signals (one of them for name
ownership, and two unused for properties of the proxy), and was racy. In
particular, the `name-owner` property could be set before all D-Bus
messages had been processed — it could have been derived from getting
the owner of the name, for example.
This left unprocessed messages hanging around in the `context`, but that
context was never iterated again, which essentially leaked the
references held by those messages. That included a reference to the
`GDBusConnection`.
The first part of the fix is to simplify the code to use
`g_bus_watch_name_on_connection()`, so there’s only one signal
subscription to worry about.
The second part of the fix is to use the `GDestroyNotify` callback for
the watch data to be notified of when all D-Bus traffic has been
processed and the signal unsubscription is complete. At this point, it’s
guaranteed that there are no idle callbacks pending in the
`GMainContext`, since the `GDestroyNotify` callback is the last one
invoked on the `GMainContext`.
Essentially, this commit uses the `GDestroyNotify` callback as a
synchronisation message between the D-Bus worker thread and the thread
calling `ensure_gdbus_testserver_up()`.

the earlier tests could leave the refcount of the shared connection in a

There was a slight race in name ownership: a gap between calling
`RequestName` (or receiving its reply) and subscribing to `NameLost`. In
that gap, another process could request and receive the name, and this
one wouldn’t know about it.
Fix that by subscribing to `NameAcquired` and `NameLost` before calling
`RequestName`, and then unsubscribing again if the subscriptions turn
out not to be necessary (if the process can’t own the requested name).

The loops should continue iterating if the timeout is non-zero and we're
still waiting for the updated value. Otherwise, if things break, we'll
be waiting until we receive a value that never arrives.
This reverts commit b6d8efbebc.
This GLib API is good, but the implentation is not ready, so there's no
reason to commit to the API in GLib 2.64. We can reland again when the
implementation is ready.
There are three problems: (a) The glib-networking implementation normally
works, but the test has been broken for a long time. I'm not comfortable
with adding a major new feature without a working test. This is
glib-networking#104. (b) The WebKit implementation never landed. There
is a working patch, but it hasn't been accepted upstream yet. This API
isn't needed in GLib until WebKit is ready to start using it.
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200805. (c) Similarly, even if
the WebKit API was ready, that itself isn't useful until an application
is ready to start using it, and the Epiphany level work never happened.
Let's try again for GLib 2.66. Reverting this commit now just means we
gain another six months before committing to the API forever. No reason
to keep this in GLib 2.64 when nothing is using it yet.
This complements the `--glib-min-required` argument, just like the
`GLIB_MIN_REQUIRED` and `GLIB_MAX_ALLOWED` preprocessor defines which
control access to APIs in C.
Currently, it doesn’t affect code generation at all. When we next change
code generation, we will need to gate any new API usage on this
argument.
