On a fast laptop, this test currently takes about 7s to run, which is a
significant portion of the overall test suite time.
On a slower CI machine, especially running the test under valgrind, the
test can time out.
There’s no need to always run so many iterations: we run the tests under
CI so often that it’s likely a failure will eventually be hit (if there
is a bug) even with fewer iterations. We also now run the tests once a
week with `-m slow`, so the original iteration count will also still be
used then.

Usually, after g_pointer_bit_lock() we want to read the pointer that we
have. In many cases, when we g_pointer_bit_lock() a pointer, we can
access it afterwards without atomic, as nobody is going to modify the
pointer then.
However, gdataset also supports g_datalist_set_flags(), so the pointer
may change at any time and we must always use atomics to read it. For
that reason, g_datalist_lock_and_get() does an atomic read right after
g_pointer_bit_lock().
g_pointer_bit_lock() can easily access the value that it just set. Add
g_pointer_bit_lock_and_get() which can return the value that gets set
afterwards.
Aside from saving the second atomic-get in certain scenarios, the
returned value is also atomically the one that we just set.
The existing g_pointer_bit_lock() and g_pointer_bit_unlock() API
requires the user to understand/reimplement how bits of the pointer get
mangled. Add helper functions for that.
The useful thing to do with g_pointer_bit_lock() API is to get/set
pointers while having it locked. For example, to set the pointer a user
can do:
g_pointer_bit_lock (&lockptr, lock_bit);
ptr2 = set_bit_pointer_as_if_locked(ptr, lock_bit);
g_atomic_pointer_set (&lockptr, ptr2);
g_pointer_bit_unlock (&lockptr, lock_bit);
That has several problems:
- it requires one extra atomic operations (3 instead of 2, in the
non-contended case).
- the first g_atomic_pointer_set() already wakes blocked threads,
which find themselves still being locked and needs to go back to
sleep.
- the user needs to re-implement how bit-locking mangles the pointer so
that it looks as if it were locked.
- while the user tries to re-implement what glib does to mangle the
pointer for bitlocking, there is no immediate guarantee that they get
it right.
Now we can do instead:
g_pointer_bit_lock(&lockptr, lock_bit);
g_pointer_bit_unlock_and_set(&lockptr, lock_bit, ptr, 0);
This will also emit a critical if @ptr has the locked bit set.
g_pointer_bit_lock() really only works with pointers that have a certain
alignment, and the lowest bits unset. Otherwise, there is no space to
encode both the locking and all pointer values. The new assertion helps
to catch such bugs.
Also, g_pointer_bit_lock_mask_ptr() is here, so we can do:
g_pointer_bit_lock(&lockptr, lock_bit);
/* set a pointer separately, when g_pointer_bit_unlock_and_set() is unsuitable. */
g_atomic_pointer_set(&lockptr, g_pointer_bit_lock_mask_ptr(ptr, lock_bit, TRUE, 0, NULL));
...
g_pointer_bit_unlock(&lockptr, lock_bit);
and:
g_pointer_bit_lock(&lockptr, lock_bit);
/* read the real pointer after getting the lock. */
ptr = g_pointer_bit_lock_mask_ptr(lockptr, lock_bit, FALSE, 0, NULL));
...
g_pointer_bit_unlock(&lockptr, lock_bit);
Some of GLib's unit tests are under an apparently GLib-specific
permissive license, vaguely similar to the BSD/MIT family but with the
GPL's lack-of-warranty wording. This is not on SPDX's list of
well-known licenses, so we need to use a custom license name prefixed
with LicenseRef if we want to represent this in SPDX/REUSE syntax.
Most of the newer tests seem to be licensed under LGPL-2.1-or-later
instead.

When an object with toggle reference is notifying a change we just
assume that this is true because of previous checks.
However, while locking, another thread may have removed the toggle
reference causing the waiting thread to abort (as no handler is set at
that point).
To avoid this, once we've got the toggle references mutex lock, check
again if the object has toggle reference, and if it's not the case
anymore just ignore the request.
Add a test that triggers this, it's not 100% happening because this is
of course timing related, but this is very close to the truth.
Fixes: #2394
It can happen that a GWeakRef is added to an object while it's disposing
(or even during finalizing) and this may happen in a thread that (weak)
references an object while the disposal isn't completed yet or when
using toggle references and switching to GWeakRef on notification (as
the API suggests).
In such scenario the weak locations are not cleaned up when the object
is finalized, and will point to a free'd area.
So, during finalization and when we're sure that the object will be
destroyed for sure, check again if there are new weak locations and
unset them if any as part of the qdata destruction.
Do this adding a new utility function so that we can avoid duplicating
code to free the weak locations.
Added various tests simulating this case.
Fixes: #2390
These variables were already (correctly) accessed atomically. The
`volatile` qualifier doesn’t help with that.

It may be defined by the environment (we document that as being allowed)
— if so, individual files should not try to redefine it, as that causes
a preprocessor warning.

This was mostly machine generated with the following command:
```
codespell \
--builtin clear,rare,usage \
--skip './po/*' --skip './.git/*' --skip './NEWS*' \
--write-changes .
```
using the latest git version of `codespell` as per [these
instructions](https://github.com/codespell-project/codespell#user-content-updating).
Then I manually checked each change using `git add -p`, made a few
manual fixups and dropped a load of incorrect changes.
There are still some outdated or loaded terms used in GLib, mostly to do
with git branch terminology. They will need to be changed later as part
of a wider migration of git terminology.
If I’ve missed anything, please file an issue!

The timer tests expect that a small value for sleep does not result in
no sleep at all. Round up to the next millisecond to bring it more in line
with other platforms.
This fixes the glib/timer tests.
This makes the 'threadtests' time out since that uses small usleeps a lot and
until now didn't wait at all, but now always waits a msec. Reduce the amount
of tests done on Windows to get the runtime down to something reasonable again.

It's unnecessary, and only adds visual noise; we have been fairly
inconsistent in the past, but the semi-colon-less version clearly
dominates in the code base.

I searched all files that mention g_test_run, and replaced most
g_print() calls. This avoids interfering with TAP. Exceptions:
* gio/tests/network-monitor: a manual mode that is run by
"./network-monitor --watch" is unaffected
* glib/gtester.c: not a test
* glib/gtestutils.c: not a test
* glib/tests/logging.c: specifically exercising g_print()
* glib/tests/markup-parse.c: a manual mode that is run by
"./markup-parse --cdata-as-text" is unaffected
* glib/tests/testing.c: specifically exercising capture of stdout
in subprocesses
* glib/tests/utils.c: captures a subprocess's stdout
* glib/tests/testglib.c: exercises an assertion failure in g_print()

Add a check to prevent adding an interface to a class that has already
had its class_init done.
This is an incompatible change but it is suspected that there are not
many users of this functionality. Two known exceptions are pygobject
(fixed in bug 686149) and our own testsuite (affected tests have been
temporarily disabled by this patch).
Once we confirm that nobody else is using this functionality we can
remove a rather large amount of code for dealing with this case.
