For the purposes of debugging, it is quite useful for every GSource to
have a name set. Ensure that any GSource we construct inside GLib has a
name set. For GSources which are then returned to the caller, this name
can then be overridden with something even more useful by the caller.
Since this data is only used for debugging, avoid doing any allocations
for it; just use static strings.

Function do_posix_spawn uses environ, but gspawn.c doesn't declare it.
Since there is no system header declaring this global variable, this
causes compilation error on FreeBSD.
Code added in this commit is copied from genviron.c.
G_SPAWN_LEAVE_DESCRIPTORS_OPEN must be set to enable the optimized
posix_spawn codepath, so this flag is likely to see more usage now.
Document that FD_CLOEXEC can be used to cause file descriptors to be
automatically closed while this flag is used.
When the amount of free memory on the system is somewhat low, gnome-shell
will sometimes fail to launch apps, reporting the error:
fork(): Cannot allocate memory
fork() is failing here because while cloning the process virtual address
space, Linux worries that the thread being forked may end up COWing the
entire address space of the parent process (gnome-shell, which is
memory-hungry), and there is not enough free memory to permit that to
happen.
In this case we are simply calling fork() in order to quickly call exec(),
which will throw away the entirity of the duplicated VM, so we should
look for ways to avoid the overcommit check.
The well known solution to this is to use clone(CLONE_VM) or vfork(), which
completely avoids creating a new memory address space for the child.
However, that comes with a bunch of caveats and complications:
https://gist.github.com/nicowilliams/a8a07b0fc75df05f684c23c18d7db234https://ewontfix.com/7/
In 2016, glibc's posix_spawn() was rewritten to use this approach
while also resolving the concerns.
https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=glibc.git;h=9ff72da471a509a8c19791efe469f47fa6977410
I experimented with a similar approach in glib, but it was not practical
because glibc has several items of important internal knowledge (such as
knowing which signals should be given special treatment because they are
NPTL implementation details) that are not cleanly exposed elsewhere.
Instead, this patch adapts the gspawn code to use posix_spawn() where
possible, which will reap the benefits of that implementation.
The posix_spawn API is more limited than the gspawn API though,
partly due to natural limitations of using CLONE_VM, so the posix_spawn
path is added as a separate codepath which is only executed when the
conditions are right. Callers such as gnome-shell will have to be modified
to meet these conditions, such as not having a child_setup function.
In addition to allowing for the gnome-shell "Cannot allocate memory"
failure to be avoided, this should result in a general speedup in this
area, because fork()'s behaviour of cloning the entire VM space
has a cost which is now avoided. posix_spawn() has also recently
been optimized on OpenSolaris as the most performant way to spawn
a child process.
Add a new process spawning function variant which allows the caller
to pass specific file descriptors for stdin, stdout and stderr.
It is otherwise identical to g_spawn_async_with_pipes.
Allow the same fd to be passed in multiple parameters. To make this
workable, the child process logic that closes the fd after the first time
it has been dup2'ed needed tweaking; we now just set those fds to be
closed upon exec using the CLOEXEC flag. Add a test for this case.
This will be used by gnome-shell to avoid performing equivalent
dup2 actions in a child_setup function. Dropping use of child_setup will
enable use of an upcoming optimized process spawning codepath.
Nevertheless it accepts "w+b".
When checking the Win32 documentation of fopen()/_wfopen(), it clearly
states:
> In addition to the earlier values, the following characters can be
> appended to mode to specify the translation mode for newline
> characters.
This implementation expects 'b' or 't' to be appended, and therefore
"wb+" ends up with an error, whereas the alias "w+b" works perfectly
while it is exactly the same thing. So let's just have glib "translate"
the mode when it can to have it working transparently the same way on
every platform.
Using g_assert_cmpfloat() with a float or double causes warnings on the
newest Clang version, because the macro internally promotes all values to
a long double, which Clang warns about. Casting explicitly removes the
warning.
Closes: #1377
This commit adds two W32-only environmental variable checks:
* G_WIN32_ALLOC_CONSOLE, if set to 1, will force glib to create
a new console if the process has no console by itself.
This option is for GUI apps that are launched from GUI
processes, in which case there's no console anywhere near them.
* G_WIN32_ATTACH_CONSOLE, if set to a comma-separated list of
standard stream names (stdint, stdout, stderr), will reopen
a given std stream and tie it to the console (using existing console
or parent console).
This works either with the other option (to create a console),
or if the app is launched from a console process (often the
case for developers).
The redirection is done with freopen(), dup() and dup2().
If everything goes well, C file descriptors 0, 1 or 2 will
be bound to stdin, stdout and stderr respectively (only for
streams listed in the envrionmental variable), and so will
be stdio streams by the same names.
With these it's possible to see the output of g_log*() functions
when running GTK4 applications, which are linked as GUI applications,
and thus do not get a console by default.

Fixes issue #1304
This function only calls fsync() if @target exists and is non-empty. If
not, it doesn't provide the "old contents or new contents" guarantee
that one might expect. This has been the case since
d20a188b12, and is justified either as a
performance optimization or by asserting that this function only
guarantees to not destroy existing data (implicitly defining
non-existence or emptiness as not data).
In addition, explicitly spell out that whether it's atomic in the
non-empty case is system-dependent. If the system administrator has
configured some funky filesystem options, they may be out of luck on the
atomicity front.

This allows test calls to produce output with \n

Reduces the number of ifdefs, since all checks

Test that the API behaves as expected, especially when we get to
saturation.
Additionally, check that both the function and the macro versions of the
API behave identically.
If we're using GCC we can use __extension__ to inline the grefcount and
gatomicrefcount API, and avoid the function call.
These macros are only enabled if G_DISABLE_CHECKS is defined, as they
remove critical warnings when the reference counters achieve saturation.
We have a common pattern for reference counting in GLib, but we always
implement it with ad hoc code. This is a good chance at trying to
standardise the implementation and make it public, so that other code
using GLib can take advantage of shared behaviour and semantics.
Instead of simply taking an integer variable, we should create type
aliases, to immediately distinguish the reference counting semantics of
the code; we can handle mixing atomic reference counting with a
non-atomic type (and vice versa) by using differently signed values for
the atomic and non-atomic cases.
The gatomicrefcount type is modelled on the Linux kernel refcount_t
type; the grefcount type is added to let single-threaded code bases to
avoid paying the price of atomic memory barriers on reference counting
operations.
Meson has the ability to classify tests according to "suites", a list of
tags. This is especially useful when we want to run specific sets of
tests — e.g. only GLib's tests — instead of the whole test suite. It
also allows us to classify special tests, like "slow" ones, so that we
can only run them when needed.
In master, it is already possible to build GLib using Visual Studio
using Meson[1] for some time, so we should focus on maintaining only the
Meson build files for building GLib with Visual Studio.
[1]: There are caveats when building with Visual Studio 2008, namely
that one needs to use the mt command to embed the manifests that
are generated with the .exe/DLLs, for all builds, and that in the
case where the compilation hangs on Visual Studio 2008 x64, as a
workaround, should stop the build by terminating all cl.exe tasks
and change the compiler optimization flag from /O2 (full speed) to
/O1 (optimize for size), due to compiler optimization issues.
When over-allocating by inserting values off the end of an array, maybe
expand the array once, rather than twice (once for setting the size and
once for appending the values).

It's mostly not used anymore and doesn't do what it says it does.
The docs state that it affects GList, GSList, GNode, GMemChunks, GSignal,
GType n_preallocs and GBSearchArray while:
* GList, GSList and GNode use GSlice and are not affected
* GMemChunks is gone
* GType npreallocs is ignored
It also states that it can be used to force the usage of g_malloc/g_free,
which is handled by G_SLICE=always-malloc now.
The only places where it's used is in signal handling through GBSearchArray
and in GValueArray (deprecated). Since it's unlikely that anyone wants to
reduce allocation sizes just for those cases remove the build option.
See commit 4c2928a544 for why checking AT_SECURE is preferable compared
to UID checks as currently done in the fallback case.
getauxval() was added with glibc 2.16
While glibc <2.19 didn't provide a way to differentiate a 0 return value from an error,
passing AT_SECURE should always succeed according to
https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-07/msg00407.html
I've added an errno check anyway, to be on the safe side.
It was added in 4c2928a544 to potentially enable accessing
AT_SECURE through __libc_enable_secure, but was never enabled.
Newer glibc provides getauxval(AT_SECURE) which should be used instead.
Add a TODO note for that.
ENABLE_GC_FRIENDLY_DEFAULT was supposed to set the default for the gc friendliness
while still allowing to force enable it at runtime with G_DEBUG=gc-friendly.
With commit 943a18b564 (6 years ago) things were changed to always set it
according to the content of G_DEBUG in glib_init(), making the default unused.
Since nobody complained since then just remove the macro and the build option.
g_date_strftime() on Windows uses the SYSTEMTIME structure which requires the
year to be >=1601. Passing 1 results in a negative SYSTEMTIME.wYear
which makes GetDateFormatW() fail and crashes due to missing error handling.

- MSVC compiler is not supported on amd64-Win64 platform.

This reverts commit bbcce75d4e.
The tests in test_async_queue_timed() assume that g_async_queue_timeout_pop()
and in turn g_cond_wait_until() wait at least until end_time
before returning, i.e. calling g_get_monotonic_time() after the timeout should result
in a value equal or larger than the timeout end time.
For the win32 implementation of g_cond_wait_until() this isn't the case which
makes those tests fail.
There are three reasons why the function returns early:
1) The underlying API works with milliseconds and the timeout gets rounded
down, resulting in a too small timeout value.
2) In case the timeout is too large to be passed to the API it gets limited
(there is also a bug because it converts INFINITE to milliseconds while
they already are, but using INFINITE would be wrong as well, as passing
a large timeout is not the same as blocking forever really)
3) Even with the rounding changed the underlying API still returns a bit early
sometimes on my machine (relative to g_get_monotonic_time())
This changes the implementation to round up to the next millisecond (fixing 1)
and to wait again in case a timeout occurs but the end time hasn't been
reached yet (fixing 2 and 3).
This makes the test_async_queue_timed() tests pass.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=795569
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.

For g_autolist and g_autoslist, the cleanup func was cast to
GDestroyNotify before being passed to g_(s)list_free_full. This cast
provokes GCC 8 to emit a warning if the return type is not void:
…/gmacros.h:462:99: warning: cast between incompatible function types
from … to 'void (*)(void *)' [-Wcast-function-type]
Cast to 'void (*)(void)' first, which suppresses the warning as
recommended by the GCC documentation. g_autoptr remains untouched.

In commit f49a93b207
from bug https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=791342
we added two new static inline cleanup helpers in case a type was
used inside a list.
These functions will commonly be unused.
In rpm-ostree, we run a build using `CC=clang -Werror=unused` because
it catches `g_autofree char *foo = NULL;` as unused, but GCC doesn't.
When trying to update to F28 with a newer glib, our CI fell over on this.
Mark all of the autocleanups as "maybe unused".
Visual Studio x64 builds do not allow inline assembly code, so we need
to re-add the code that disables inline assembly when we build with
Visual Studio for x64 builds, as we did before. This is necessary when
we update the included valgrind.h.
The output of the %p type is implementation defined and on Windows we get
leading zeros depending on the pointer type size. Instead of adding
ifdeffery use g_snprintf() to generate the expected message.

g_steal_pointer is both an inline function, returning gpointer, and a
macro that casts the return value to the type of its argument. The first
version of the macro uses '0 ? (*(pp)) : (g_steal_pointer) (pp)' to cast
the return value to the type of *pp, but this fails to yield warnings
about incompatible pointer types with current gcc. Apparently the
ternary operator is optimized away before the type of the expression is
determined.
The typeof() (or __typeof__()) operator allows an explicit cast.

Previous version of this function started with a call to g_utf8_to_utf16(),
which also served as a NULL check, since g_utf8_to_utf16() just returns NULL
on NULL strings. Current version of this function does some filename string
checks first and converts it to utf16 only after these checks are done, and
these checks do not take into account the possibility of filename being NULL.
Fix this by explicitly checking for NULL.
The current docs implied, by using the printf name, that the macros would
be compatible with printf(), but that's not always the case.
On Windows we use gnulib if the system printf isn't good enough.
This can happen on MinGW without __USE_MINGW_ANSI_STDIO set or with MSVC
with a varrying degree of incompatibility.

This is a non-trivial accessor which gets the identifier string used to

they are in sync. Previously, the tz->name was unconditionally set to

This patch relaxes the comparison rules and allow the month names to be

Translators should be allowed to provide the month names in a different

because it is disputable at the moment whether the month names should
follow the language rules strictly and be titlecased only if it is
obligatory to titlecase them or they should be also titlecased in the
standalone case. Hopefully in future a conversion specifier will be
invented to control the upper/lower case individually.

With the various macros we use to provide fallbacks for missing
nl_langinfo() fields, the locale handling can become quite complex:
nl_langinfo() returns strings encoded in the current locale, but C_()
returns strings encoded in UTF-8 (by GLib convention — you do actually
need to call bind_textdomain_codeset() to achieve this).
There are various format specifiers, especially with the new %Ob, %OB,
%Oh specifiers, which conditionally call nl_langinfo() or something
based on C_(). This makes encoding handling difficult.
Add additional macros which indicate whether the macros they’re paired
with return something encoded in the current locale, or encoded in
UTF-8. The user of the macro can then use these to work out whether to
re-encode.

The test_GDateTime_new_from_unix() test creates a UNIX timestamp
representing 1990-01-01 00:00:00 in the local timezone, and then turns
it into a GDateTime using g_date_time_new_from_unix_local(). This should
succeed regardless of the current local timezone (TZ environment
variable).
However, it was failing for TZ=America/Lima, and *only* for that
timezone.
As it turns out, Lima used to have a DST leap at exactly 00:00:00 on the
1st of January — but this stopped in 1994, which made investigation a
bit harder. See:
https://www.timeanddate.com/time/change/peru/lima?year=1990.
What was happening is that 1990-01-01 00:00:00 was being converted to
the timestamp 631170000, but GDateTime was converting that timestamp to
1990-01-01 01:00:00 when loading it. Both conversions are correct: a DST
leap creates an equivalence between an hour’s worth of timestamps.
We can somewhat validate this by seeing that timestamp 631169999 maps to
1989-12-31 23:59:59, and timestamp 631170001 maps to 1990-01-01
01:00:01.
Fix this by changing the date used by the test to one where no timezone
was undergoing a DST leap in 1990. This should never change, as all that
data is now historical.

Note that the g_convert() API works with byte arrays. It's wrong to

The documentation was misleading about that in some places, so that got
corrected as well.
Strings in the locale encoding are annotated as dynamic-length byte
arrays because they don't have any guaranteed format and can contain
nul bytes. For UTF-8 strings in g_*_{from,to}_utf8(), GLib assumes
no embedded nul bytes and the (type utf8) annotations on the UTF-8
parameters and return values remain as they were. Likewise for

When compiling with G_LOG_USE_STRUCTURED, g_message(), g_debug(), etc.
use g_log_structured(). The message format string and its format
arguments are passed as the final set of arguments in a longer varargs
list, which includes the log domain and level (and other) fields.

-Wformat.
Fix support for this by adding a new semi-private helper function,
_g_log_structured_standard(), which only uses varargs for the message
format and its arguments, and uses fixed arguments for the other fields.

The behaviour of upstream iconv() when faced with a character which is
valid in the input encoding, but not representable in the output
encoding, is implementation defined:
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/
Specifically:
If iconv() encounters a character in the input buffer that is valid,
but for which an identical character does not exist in the target
codeset, iconv() shall perform an implementation-defined conversion
on this character.
This behaviour was being exposed in our g_iconv() wrapper and also in
g_convert_with_iconv() — but users of g_convert_with_iconv() (both the
GLib unit tests, and the implementation of g_convert_with_fallback())
were assuming that iconv() would return EILSEQ if faced with an
unrepresentable character.
On platforms like NetBSD, this is not the case: NetBSD’s iconv()
finishes the conversion successfully, and outputs a string containing
replacement characters. It signals those replacements in its return
value from iconv(), which is positive (specifically, non-zero) in such a
case.
Let’s codify the existing assumed behaviour of g_convert_with_iconv(),
documenting that it will return G_CONVERT_ERROR_INVALID_SEQUENCE if
faced with an unrepresentable character. As g_iconv() is a thin wrapper
around iconv(), leave the behaviour there implementation-defined (but
document it as such).

This adds two new tests for g_bytes_new_from_bytes().
One test ensures that when creating a new GBytes that is a slice of

count incremented by one.
The other test ensures that when performing sub-slices of GBytes, for
which the parent GBytes also references a GBytes, that we skip the

of the internal state of the GBytes structure is performed to prove
the correctness of the implementation.

String inputs to convenience conversion functions g_locale_from_utf8(),
g_filename_from_utf8(), and g_filename_to_utf8(), are annotated for the
bindings as NUL-terminated strings of (type utf8) or (type filename).
There is also a len parameter that allows converting part of the string,
but it is exposed to the bindings as a value independent from the string
buffer. Absent any more sophisticated ways to annotate, the way to
provide a safeguard against len argument values longer than the
string length is to check that no nul is encountered within the first
len bytes of the string. strdup_len() includes this check as part of
UTF-8 validation, but g_convert() permits embedded nuls.
For g_filename_from_utf8(), also check the output to prevent embedded NUL
bytes. It's not safe to allow embedded NULs in a string that is going
to be used as (type filename), and no known bytestring encoding for
file names allows them.

The character encoding conversion utility functions g_locale_to_utf8()
and g_filename_to_utf8() had inconsistent behavior on producing strings
with inner NUL bytes: in the all-UTF-8 strdup path, the input string
validation prohibits embedded NULs, while g_convert(), using iconv(),
can produce UTF-8 output with NUL bytes inside the output buffer.
This, while valid UTF-8 per the Unicode standard, is not valid for
the nul-terminated (type utf8) return value format that the *_to_utf8()
functions are annotated with (as per discussion in bug 756128).
Check the output of g_convert() for embedded NUL bytes, and if any
are found, set the newly introduced error
G_CONVERT_ERROR_EMBEDDED_NUL.
Also document the error set by g_{locale,filename}_{from,to}_utf8()
when the input string contains nul bytes.

Instead of detecting last-unref, relax the precondition a little

Rather than unreffing them _after_ finalising the GSource and freeing
its struct. This fixes the case where the GSourceCallbackFuncs data
contains a pointer to the GSource, and the unref() function operates on
that pointer, e.g. by calling g_source_destroy(). This happens when
using g_source_set_dummy_callback() on a GSource, as the generated
GClosure needs to destroy the GSource when it is invalidated, which
could happen (at latest) when the GSourceCallbackFuncs.unref() function
is called during finalisation of the GSource.
By moving the GSourceCallbackFuncs.unref() invocation higher up in
g_source_unref_internal(), it becomes re-entrancy-safe for GSource
methods.

If nl_langinfo() doesn’t support a particular item, it returns the empty

g_date_time_format() accordingly, otherwise the user could unwittingly
end up with a formatted date/time which is missing some or all of its

This arose with %r in de_DE, which is unsupported by nl_langinfo()

When doing a level traverse of a GNode with depth of -1, the depth was
implicitly being converted to an unsigned integer. This worked (making
the depth limit G_MAXUINT), but was a bit mystical.

It can only fail if there’s been a leak or programmer error, so this is

Do the same for g_rw_lock_writer_lock().
It should be safe to use g_critical() for reporting the problems, since
GRWLock is not used in gmessages.c, and printing a critical seems better

This commit adds new W32-only functions to gstdio.c,
and a new header file, gstdioprivate.h.
These functions are:
g_win32_stat_utf8()
g_win32_lstat_utf8()
g_win32_fstat()
and they fill a private structure, GWin32PrivateStat,
which has all the fields that normal stat has, as well as some
extras.
These functions are then used throughout glib and gio to get better
data about the system. Specifically:
* Full, 64-bit size, guaranteed (g_stat() is forced to use 32-bit st_size)
* Full, 64-bit file identifier (st_ino is 0 when normal stat() is used, and still is)
* W32 File attributes (which stat() doesn't report); in particular, this allows
symlinks to be correctly identified
* Full, 64-bit time, guaranteed (g_stat() uses 32-bit st_*time on 32-bit Windows)
* Allocated file size (as a W32 replacement for the missing st_blocks)
st_mode remains unchanged (thus, no S_ISLNK), so when these are given back to
glib users (via g_stat(), for example, which is now implemented by calling g_win32_stat_utf8),
this field does not contain anything unexpected.
g_lstat() now calls g_win32_lstat_utf8(), which works on symlinks the way it's supposed to.
Also adds the g_win32_readlink_utf8() function, which behaves like readlink()
(including its inability to return 0-terminated strings and inability to say how large
the output buffer should be; these limitations are purely for compatibility with
existing glib code).
Thus, symlink support should now be much better, although far from being complete.
A new W32-only test in gio/tests/file.c highlights the following features:
* allocated size
* 64-bit time
* unique file IDs

The warnings issued when dealing with waitpid() raising ECHILD are
somewhat misleading: there are lots of reasons why waitpid() might
fail in this way, and we can't tell which one has happened.
In particular, passing a non-child or a non-pid, waiting for the same
pid elsewhere, or creating a duplicate watch for the same pid would
all fail in the same way.

As per further discussion on bug #781598, we can’t do this in GLib,

of GLib *must* do a header check (for example, using AC_CHECK_HEADERS)
and #include fcntl.h themselves.

In fact, none of the functions dealing with GData** or a dataset

the annotations added are mostly to avoid memory unsafety
and leaks.

The HAVE_GOOD_PRINTF config variable determines whether we are able to
use the CRT-supplied *printf() functions directly, by determining whether
the CRT-supplied vsnprintf() and snprintf() functions support C99 well
enough.
This means, we need to build the gnulib subdir as a static lib in GLib, and use
the gnulib *printf() functions when:
-We are on Windows
-The CRT's vsnprintf() and snprintf() is not sufficiently C99-compliant.
This will fix the problem when the *printf() functions cause a CRT
abort() call on pre-2015 Visual Studio builds at least, and ensures that
the Visual Studio 2015+ builds will pass the printf tests in GLib, since
the *printf() in Visual Studio 2015/2017's CRT does not support the %n
