The code section guarded with toggle_refs_mutex includes a call to
g_object_unref(), which may call toggle_refs_notify(). As the latter
tries to acquire the same mutex, glib locks up.

Previously, dumping a GValue holding a GStrv just yielded "((GStrv *)
0xDEADBEEF)". I think it'd be more useful to dump a Python list-style
representation of the GStrv's contents, if it's not NULL.

Since we added g_object_notify_by_pspec(), an efficient way to install
and notify properties relies on storing the GParamSpec pointers inside
a static arrays, like we do for signal identifiers.
Instead of multiple calls to g_object_class_install_property(), we
should have a single function to take the static array of GParamSpecs
and iterate it.

This should fix bug #628952.
Don't include glib/gdatasetprivate.h directly. Especially don't define
GLIB_COMPILATION when doing that, as that causes breakage on Windows
because of the variable dllimport/dllexport stuff in gtypes.h that
checks GLIB_COMPILATION. That macro really should be defined only when
compiling code that goes into the libglib DLL. Otherwise the compiler
thinks that variables that should be imported from libglib are
actually defined in the code being compiled.
Just call g_atomic_pointer_get() as such, don't bother with
G_DATALIST_GET_FLAGS.

The gdatasetprivate.h header includes gatomic.h directly. It all works
well in GLib, but inside GObject it will trigger the single inclusion
guard.
Since this is a private header, and it's kind of a special case, one way
to fix it is to declare GLIB_COMPILATION around it and fool the single
inclusion guard in gatomic.h into thinking we're compiling GLib and not
GObject.
g_object_class_list_properties tries to sort the returned list of
paramspecs by 'type depth' and param_id. But all the overridden
interface properties have a param_id of 0, so they come out in
a random order.
Bug 628253.
The previous code dedup'd when thawing and threw nasty warnings your way
if you notified too often. This can now easily be avoided.
Performance should be roughly identical, as both are O(n²).
The g_object_bind_property_with_closures() function should set a
marshaller if the two GClosures don't have one already. This simplifies
the caller code and avoids duplication.
We need to add a new marshaller to the gmarshal.list matching the
signature of the GBindingTransformFunc function.
Since GSettings got the same functionality and flag in commit ca3b7b75b
GBinding should also have the ability to automatically invert a boolean
value without requiring a custom transformation function.
Since using the function pointer version muddles the memory management
requirements of language bindings, we should implement a GClosure-based
variant on top of g_object_bind_property_full().

This reverts commit 0201a81f04 and adds
locks in the right place.
As this file is a public header (see last commit), we cannot just remove
functions from it.
gobjectnotifyqueue.c is a public header, so we cannot remove files from
it. (Yes you read that right, this .c file is a public header. See your

You can pass a NULL GValue * to any of g_value_array_insert, _prepend or
_append to add a new, uninitialized value. This is a very useful
shortcut, and it should be documented rather than left languishing in a
comment in the implementation.
Fixes Gnome bug #552363.
When creating a binding between two object properties we might want to
automatically synchronize the two values at the moment of the binding
creation, instead of waiting for the next change.

This is a minimal patch-out of the galias functionality. We will do a
release like this so that we can easily back it out if there are
reported problems.
A more substantial cleanup (mostly removing #includes from every file)
will follow if there are no issues.
Since an object instance might have a lot of bindings, using a list
might become a performance issue when removing them. Using a simple
hash table guarantees constant time lookup, which is the most common
operation.
GBinding is a simple, opaque object that represents a binding between a
property on a GObject instance (source) and property on another GObject
instance (target).

g_object_notify_by_pspec() will emit the "notify" signal on the given
pspec, short-circuiting the hash table lookup needed by
g_object_notify(). The suggested and documented way of using
g_object_notify_by_pspec() is similar to the way of emitting signals
with their ID.
Emission tests (with no handler attached to the notify signal) show a
10-15% speedup over using g_object_notify().

This adds static markers and systemtap tapsets for:
* type creation
* object lifetimes (creation, ref, unref, dispose, finalize)
* signal creation and emission
Signal emissions and finalization marker have a corresponding
*_end (or *-end in dtrace) version that is when the corresponding
operation is finished.

Add a @valuenum@ substitution that outputs the integer value of a
particular enum value. The value is determined by using (sandboxed)
perl to evaluate C expression. If evaluation fails then glib-mkenums
dies loudly. Evaluation is only enabled if '@valuenum@' appears in the
template file, so existing users will not be affected.
Currently, specifying a comment template in the template file results in
the given template being appended to the default (C-style) one rather
than replacing it.
This causes it to be replaced outright.
Bug 617940.
Don't keep the lists of source files for libglib, libgobject and
libgio in the VS project files in addition to the canonical location,
the corresponding Makefile.am files.
Instead, generate the corresponding .vcproj files at make dist time

still list explicitly in the .vcprojin files some of the
Windows-specific source files, and the sources files of gnulib and
pcre.

Most callers of G_VALUE_COLLECT previously had to initialize the GValue
and then G_VALUE_COLLECT would still go through a cleanup phase.
The new variant allows passing a unitialized GValue along with a GType

If threads are available we always enable threads in gobject, which

This works around the need to take a custom mutex twice and add the
object to a GSList of objects that are currently in construction for the
common case. Only when the constructor is overwritten do we use the
previous behavior and allow things like singleton objects.
The only slightly incompatible change is that previously, it was ok to
call g_object_set() on construct-only properties while the object was
initialized. This will now fail. If that behavior is needed, setting a
custom constructor that just chains up will reenable this functionality.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=557151
g_type_default_interface_peek() and g_type_value_table_peek() don't need
to acquire read locks anymore when they test the refcount instead of
node->data.
The function returns TRUE if the type was previously initialized and can
be easily reused. It returns FALSE and does not take a reference if the
type is not referenced yet.
g_type_class_ref() uses this to avoid taking locks in the common path,
which speeds up object creation a lot - in particular in multithreaded
applications.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=585375
This does not change any locking behavior at all, it just replaces
simple getters/setters of the variable with atomic versions.
The ref_count variable was kept as unsigned, even though that requires
casting for all operations, to mirror GObject->refcount.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=585375
Currently interface lookups are do a binary search over all the interfaces
an object implements. Its possible to do this lookup in constant time using for
instance the gcj algorighm described at:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/java/1999-q3/msg00377.html
This is an implementation of that based on GAtomicArray.
We implement lock free interface lookup by moving the n_ifaces
counter into memory pointed to by TypeNode->iface_entries, and
then updating this in RCU-style by always copying it, modifying
the copy and then when the modification is done replace the old
pointer with g_atomic_pointer_set.
There is one additional complexity when freeing the old memory,
since the old memory region can be in use. To handle this we
don't free such memory, but put it on a free list and reuse it
later. This means that lock-free lookups must be able to
handle the memory being modified in random ways without crashing,
and at the end we verify that the memory didn't change and the
transaction is ok.
With this infrastructure the patch then implements a lock-free
version of type_lookup_iface_entry_L called type_lookup_iface_vtable_I
and use it in: g_type_interface_peek, g_type_interface_peek_parent
and type_node_check_conformities_UorL.
Using the performance tests from bug 557100 shows that the general
performance difference is negligible, but the lack of a lock for each
type check and interface vfunc call should greatly enhance threaded
scalability.
This adds supports for a lock-less a non-shrinking growable array.
You can use it to do reads using no locks, as long as your read-code
can handle that during the read transaction the object can be modified
by another writer (but it will not change size or be freed), and you
can only trust the result once the transaction has finished successfully.
This doesn't free things like RCU normally does, instead it pushes the
memory on a free list that is reused for other atomic arrays.
The n_children variable can be written when locked, while the n_supers
variable is read at any time. As they both share the same bytes,
accessing them is not threadsafe.
This patch puts them into different bytes.
Thanks to Xan Lopez and valgrind for noticing this.
Store whether the object has a toggleref before decrementing the

Commit 789e260638 tried to add support for -?, but there is a typo
and instead -h was added when already present instead of -? for one
of the cases.
It works without this corrections, because all unrecognized options
trigger usage showing as well, but this is more correct.
This was bug 556706 originally.
Tools like clang fail to recognize that stanzas like
g_return_if_fail (GTK_IS_FOO (w)) guarantee w != NULL. By minimally
rewriting the type-checking macros, we can avoid these false positives.
Since @filename@ contains the full filename as given to the glib-mkenum
command, possibly including path elements (e.g. when using a non-srcdir
build), it is unsuitable to use in a #include statement in the generated

expands to the base name of the input filename. Bug #587307.
