In Windows development environments that have it, <unistd.h> is mostly
just a wrapper around several other native headers (in particular,
<io.h>, which contains read(), close(), etc, and <process.h>, which
contains getpid()). But given that some Windows dev environments don't
have <unistd.h>, everything that uses those functions on Windows
already needed to include the correct Windows header as well, and so
there is never any point to including <unistd.h> on Windows.
Also, remove some <unistd.h> includes (and a few others) that were
unnecessary even on unix.

It's possible to get a org.freedesktop.Properties.GetAll call even if we
have no readable properties in the introspection, in which case we
should return the empty list in the usual way.
We should certainly _not_ be dispatching to the method call handler of
an interface which has no properties (since it will not be expecting
this).
Add a check to make sure that there is at least one readable property
before assuming that a NULL get_property handler implies that we want to
handle properties asynchronously.
Add a testcase that was failing before the change and works after it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=703437
The existing advice in the documentation to "simply" register the
"org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties" interface if you want to handle
properties asynchronously is pretty unreasonable. If you want to handle
this interface you have to deal with all properties for all interfaces
on the path, and you have to do all of the checking for yourself. You
also have to provide your own introspection data.
Introduce a new convention for dealing with properties asynchronously.
If the user provides NULL for their get_property() or set_property()
functions in the vtable and has properties registered then the
properties are sent to the method_call() handler. We get lucky here
that this function takes an "interface_name" parameter that we can set
to "org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties".
We also do the user the favour of setting the GDBusPropertyInfo on the
GDBusMethodInvocation for their convenience (for much the same reasons
as they might want the already-available GDBusMethodInfo).
Add a testcase as well as a bunch of documentation about this new
feature.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=698375
Separate the code for validating a method call from the code for
actually scheduling it for dispatch.
This will allow property Get/Set/GetAll calls to be dispatched to the
method_call handler without duplicating a lot of code.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=698375
We presently do a lot of checks on property sets (signature check,
correct interface, property exists, etc.) from the worker thread before
dispatching the call to the user's thread. The typecheck, however, is
saved until just before calling the user's vfunc, in their thread.
My best guess is that this was done to save having to unpack the value
from the tuple twice (since we don't unpack it until we're just about
the call the user).
This patch moves the check to the same place as all of the other checks.
The purpose of this change is to allow for sharing this check with the
(soon-to-be-introduced) case of handing property sets from
method_call().
This change has a minor side effect: error messages generated by sending
invalid values to property sets are no longer guaranteed to be correctly
ordered with respect to the void returns from successful property sets.
They will instead be correctly ordered with respect to the other error
messages.

Back in the far-off twentieth century, it was normal on unix
workstations for U+0060 GRAVE ACCENT to be drawn as "‛" and for U+0027
APOSTROPHE to be drawn as "’". This led to the convention of using
them as poor-man's ‛smart quotes’ in ASCII-only text.
However, "'" is now universally drawn as a vertical line, and "`" at a
45-degree angle, making them an `odd couple' when used together.
Unfortunately, there are lots of very old strings in glib, and also
lots of new strings in which people have kept up the old tradition,
perhaps entirely unaware that it used to not look stupid.
Fix this by just using 'dumb quotes' everywhere.

Strictly speaking, neither of the two uses that aren't under the lock
*needs* to be atomic, but it seems better to be obviously correct (and
we save another 4 bytes of struct).
One of these uses is in g_dbus_connection_is_closed(), any use of which
is inherently a race condition anyway.
The other is g_dbus_connection_flush_sync, which as far as I can tell
just needs a best-effort check, to not waste effort on a connection that
has been closed for a while (but I could be wrong).
I removed the check for the closed flag altogether in
g_dbus_connection_send_message_with_reply_unlocked, because it turns out
to be redundant with one in g_dbus_connection_send_message_unlocked,
which is called immediately after.
g_dbus_connection_close_sync held the lock to check the closed flag,
which is no longer needed.
As far as I can tell, the only reason why the lock is still desirable
when setting the closed flag is so that remove_match_rule can't fail
by racing with close notification from the worker thread - but
on_worker_closed needs to hold the lock anyway, to deal with other
data structures, so there's no point in trying to eliminate the
requirement to hold the lock.

This isn't strictly necessary, because in every location where it's

it's indistinguishable from the reading thread having been scheduled

Also document which fields require such a check in order to have correct
threading semantics.
This usage doesn't matches the GInitable documentation, which suggests
use of a GError - but using an uninitialized GDBusConnection is
programming error, and not usefully recoverable. (The GInitable
documentation may have been a mistake - GNOME#662208.) Also, not all of
the places where we need it can raise a GError.
The check serves a dual purpose: it turns a non-deterministic crash into
a deterministic critical warning, and is also a memory barrier for
thread-safety. All of these functions dereference or return fields that
are meant to be protected by FLAG_INITIALIZED, so they could crash or
return an undefined value to their caller without this, if called from a
thread that isn't the one that called initable_init() (although I can't
think of any way to do that without encountering a memory barrier,
undefined behaviour, or a race condition that leads to undefined
behaviour if the non-initializing thread wins the race).
One exception is that initable_init() itself makes a synchronous call.
We deal with that by passing new internal flags up the call stack, to
reassure g_dbus_connection_send_message_unlocked() that it can go ahead.

The comment implied that even failed initialization would set
is_initialized = TRUE, but this wasn't the case - failed initialization
would only set initialization_error, and it was necessary to check both.
It turns out the documented semantics are nicer than the implemented
semantics, since this lets us use atomic operations, which are also
memory barriers, to avoid needing separate memory barriers or locks
for initialization_error (and other members that are read-only after
construction).
I expect to need more than one atomically-accessed flag to fix thread
safety, so instead of a minimal implementation I've turned is_initialized
into a flags word.

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.

Also, document that %NULL is a permitted return value and clarify its
meaning.
Finally, avoid calling the enumeration function during dispatch when the
G_DBUS_SUBTREE_FLAGS_DISPATCH_TO_UNENUMERATED_NODES flag was given.
... so it is async, cancelable and returns an error. Also provide a
synchronous version.
This is an API/ABI break but it is expected that only very few
applications use this API.

E.g. move these C structures out of public header files and into their
respective C files. Also nuke padding since this is no longer needed.
This leaves only GDBusProxy as an extendable type.

While this a dangerous thing to allow (collissions, reply_serial not
matching up etc.), the added flexibility makes this a good trade-off -
for example, with this feature, it's now a lot easier to build message
routers.

Note that things work exactly like libdbus, e.g. from the
dbus-launch(1) man page:
Whenever an autolaunch occurs, the application that had to start a
new bus will be in its own little world; it can effectively end up
starting a whole new session if it tries to use a lot of bus
services. This can be suboptimal or even totally broken, depending
on the app and what it tries to do.
[...]
You can always avoid autolaunch by manually setting
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS. Autolaunch happens because the default
address if none is set is "autolaunch:", so if any other address is
set there will be no autolaunch. You can however include autolaunch
in an explicit session bus address as a fallback, for example
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS="something:,autolaunch:" - in that case if
the first address doesn't work, processes will autolaunch. (The bus
address variable contains a comma-separated list of addresses to
try.)

Without this guarantee, peer-to-peer connections are not very
useful. However, with this guarantee it's possible to export objects
in a handler for the GDBusServer::new-connection signal.
There are two caveats with this patch
- it won't work on message bus connections
- we don't queue up messages to be written
that can be addresses later if needed.

There's a couple of places in GDBus where it's a programming error
(e.g. we'll assert or spew via e.g. g_warning()) to use the API on a
closed connection. This approach can never work since a
GDBusConnection can be closed at any point in time outside of
programmer control.
Just change the code to return a run-time error (e.g. return
G_IO_ERROR_CLOSED when sending messages, invoking methods) or silently
accept the request (e.g. exporting objects, registering for signals)
without doing anything.
Note that a GDBusConnection object is always useless after being
closed - e.g. there's no way to "reopen" a connection - the user will
have to create a new object and use that instead.

Allow constructing a GDBusProxy for well-known names as discussed here
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2009-October/msg00075.html
including test cases.
Make it possible to create a GDBusProxy for a GBusType instead of a
GDBusConnection. This requires G_BUS_TYPE_NONE so add that too.
Nuke g_bus_watch_proxy() since one can now more or less use GDBusProxy
for this.
Port gdbus-example-watch-proxy to this new API and include this
example in the GDBusProxy doc page.
Also nuke the GType parameter from the GDBusProxy constructors as
requested here: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=621229
Also update the porting guide and other API docs for this change.
Also fix a bug in the signal dispatching code so each subscriber only
get notified once, not N times, for the same signal. Also add a test
case for this.

There was a slight race where we ended up calling into user code if
the user managed to unregister an object (or subtree) in the window
between
- processing the remote call on the worker thread; and
- continuing handling it on the user code thread (via an idle handler)
This patch fixes the problem.

This allows the caller to specify the reply type that they are expecting
for this call. If the reply comes back with the wrong type, GDBus will
generate an appropriate error internally.
- add a GVariantType * argument to g_dbus_connection_call() and
_call_sync().
- move the internal API for computing message types from introspection
data to be based on GVariantType instead of strings. Update users
of this code.
- have GDBusProxy pass this calculated GVariantType into
g_dbus_connection_call(). Remove the checks done in GDBusProxy.
- Update other users of the code (test cases, gdbus-tool, GSettings
tool, etc). In some cases, remove redundant checks; in some other
cases, we are fixing bugs because no checking was done where it
should have been.
Closes bug #619391.
Ryan pointed out on IRC that we didn't do anything here. Looking at
the code, it's painfully obvious that we should be returning an error
here since a comment already says that we've exhausted all possible
options.

- Fix various #include issues
- Change #error to #warning for the EXTERNAL authentication mechanism.
It is not clear if this should work on Win32 at all.
- Call close() before unlink() for the SHA1 keyring
- Change #error to #warning so we don't forget to do
permission checking of the .dbus-keyrings directory
- Use Win32 SID for the SHA1 auth mech
- Apparently we can't use word 'interface' as an identifier
- Implement a _g_dbus_win32_get_user_sid() function. For now it's
private. Don't know if it should be public somewhere. Maybe in
a future GCredentials support for Win32? I don't know.
- GFileDescriptorBased is not available on Win32. So avoid using
it in GLocalFile stuff. Now, Win32 still uses GLocalFile + friends
(which works with file descriptors) so expose a private function
to get the fd for an OutputStream so things still work.
- Fixup gio.symbols
- Fixup tests/gdbus-peer.c so it builds
With this, at least things compile and the gdbus-peer.exe test case
passes. Which is a great start. I've tested this by cross-compiling on
a x86_64 Fedora 13 host using mingw32 and running the code on a 32-bit
Windows 7 box.

Bug #618622.
This is to match g_dbus_connection_new(). This extension allows us to
extend GDBusAuthObserver to also be used in client-side authentication
in the future (right now it's only used on the server-side).
This is needed to e.g. allow encoding maybe types (once we add
G_DBUS_CAPABILITY_FLAGS_MAYBE_TYPES) if, and only if, that capability
has been negotiated with the peer (via authentication).
