GDBusConnection sets the closed flag in the worker thread, then adds an
idle callback (which refs the Connection) to signal this in the main
thread. The tests session_bus_down doesn't spin the mainloop, so the
"closed" signal will always fire if iterating the mainloop later (and
drops the ref when doing so). But _is_closed can return TRUE even before
signalling this, in which case the "closed" signal isn't fired and the
ref isn't dropped, causing the test to fail.
Instead simply always wait for the closed signal, which is a good thing
to check anyway and ensures the ref is closed.

This was used as an optimisation for the macro hackery that used to live
in gthread.h. If a particular library or program knew that it could
rely on thread support being enabled, it would allow for static
evaluation of conditionals in some of those macros.
Since the macros are dead and thread support is now always-on, we can
get rid of this bit of legacy.
Add functions for manipulating the environment under which a
GAppLaunchContext will launch its children, to avoid thread-related
bugs with using setenv() directly.

And remove the 'joinable' argument from g_thread_new() and
g_thread_new_full().
Change the wording in the docs. Clarify expectations for
(deprecated) g_thread_create().
It is possible for _g_io_module_get_default() to be called recursively
(eg, if a module of one type is loaded that tries to look up gsettings
from its init() method and ends up causing the gsettings module to be
loaded). So use a recursive mutex.
If the connection to the bus is lost while a method call is ongoing,
the method call does not get cancelled. Instead it just sits around
until it times out.
This is visible here on XO laptops when stopping the display manager
during shutdown. imsettings starts sending a sync message to give up
its bus name (via g_bus_unown_name()), then systemd terminates the
session bus at approximately the same time. imsettings then hangs for
about 20 seconds before timing out the message.
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dbus/2011-September/014717.html
imsettings behaviour could be improved as described in that thread,
but I think this is a glib bug. I've also come up with the attached
patch which fixes it.

Previously, we took the default application for a particular mimetype

Instead of doing that we leave the user's default unset, and at time of

Commit afa82ae805 introduced a compilation

BZ #659528
In registration_data_export_interface(), the object_path is obtained using:
object_path = g_dbus_object_get_object_path (G_DBUS_OBJECT (data->object));
But when exporting an object uniquely, the object_path is not assigned
to the GDBusObject until after all the interfaces are exported.
Therefore, registration_data_export_interface() is trying to export
the interface on the non-unique object path, which can lead to
run-time errors if an object already exists on that path.
Instead, registration_data_export_interface() should be passed the
object_path explicitly, as is done in
g_dbus_object_manager_server_export_unlocked().

num_writes_pending was a counter, but it only took values 0 or 1, so make
it a boolean: it would never make sense to be trying to write out two
messages at the same time (they'd get interleaved).
Similarly, we can never be writing and flushing at the same time (that'd
mean we were flushing halfway through a message, which would be pointless)
so combine it with flush_pending too, calling the result output_pending.
Also assert that it takes the expected value whenever we change it,
and document the locking discipline used for it, including a subtle
case in write_message_in_idle_cb where it's not obvious at first glance
why we don't need the lock.
(Having the combined boolean at the top of the block of write-related
struct members improves struct packing on 64-bit platforms, by packing
read_num_ancillary_messages and output_pending into one word.)

Historically we've added random symbols to the public API with warnings
that they're private; examples are:
glib_gettext(), glib_pgettext()
g_thread_functions_for_glib_use, g_thread_use_default_impl, etc.
And we almost added "GWakeup" to public API just to share between glib and
gio.
This new glib__private__() API exports a hidden vtable, and adds a macro
GLIB_PRIVATE_CALL() that makes it generally convenient to use.
This adds an extremely tiny cost for the double indirection; but it has
the benefit that we don't need to either:
1) compile the code into both glib and gio (like GWakeup), with the
inefficiency that implies.
2) Export a "do not use this" symbol; the serious problem with this is
that someone CAN use it pretty easily. Particularly if we document
it. It's far, far harder to peek into a structure without a public
header file.

The threaded tests are using the default main context in the worker
thread, but were not g_main_context_acquire()ing it first, which meant
that g_tls_interaction_invoke_ask_password() in the main thread would
sometimes succeed in acquiring it itself and thus performing the
operation in the wrong thread. Fix that.
Also, we can't unref the loop from the worker thread, because the main
thread isn't holding a reference on it, and so it might end up being
destroyed while that thread is still inside g_main_loop_quit().

Solaris /etc/services doesn't even have "http", which was causing

On Solaris, getsockname() on an unconnected socket gives an addrlen of

the socket family in that case. (SO_DOMAIN doesn't exist everywhere,
so we can't use it unconditionally. Also, we have to only use it if
getsockname() fails, since SO_DOMAIN returns a bogus value for
accept()ed sockets on both Linux and Solaris...)
Also, link libgio to -lresolv explicitly, rather than depending on
getting it implicitly via the libasyncns build (which should

The main rationale for adding it was to avoid having gnome-shell
mmap'ing /etc/localtime once a second. However, we can just as easily
run inotify there, and given no one else was clamoring for a way to
detect when the time zone changes, I don't see a need for public API
here - at least not yet.
In the bigger picture, I just don't believe that the vast majority of
applications are going to go out of their way to instantiate and keep
around a random GTimeZoneMonitor class. And if they do, it's has the
side effect that for other bits of code in the process, local GDateTime
instances may start varying again!
So, if code can't rely on local GDateTime instances being in a
consistent state anyways, let's just do that always. The
documentation now says that this is the case. Applications have
always been able to work in a consistent local time zone by
instantiating a zone and then using it for GDateTime constructors.
We fix the "gnome-shell stats /etc/localtime once a second" issue by
using timerfd (in glib) and inotify (in gnome-shell).

This changes the meaning of "properties_lock" from "lock for D-Bus
properties" to "lock for GObject properties".
The most common problem, and the only one I've reproduced in a regression
test, is name_owner, which can be updated by the thread that owns
the GDBusProxy's main context (i.e. the thread-default main context of
the thread that constructed it) at the same time that a blocking call
is made. When a GDBusProxy is constructed in a thread-pool thread for
short-term use, the main context will typically be the global default
main context (which is actively running in the main thread!), making
this extremely problematic.
The interface info is perhaps a theoretical concern - one thread could
conceivably set it at the same time that another thread uses it, but only
in relatively pathological situations. The current API for this does have
the problem that it returns a borrowed ref, but interface info is
hopefully permanent anyway.
The default timeout is probably only a theoretical concern - it's just an
int, so writes are indivisible, and there's no worry about whether
something has been freed - but to be safe, let's hold the lock for that
too.
