cc.has_function() provide false positive for Android-20 and earlier; the fix is in Meson 0.54.2. People attempting to cross-compile previously wouldn’t have been able to get it to work without manual intervention, so the dependency bump for this platform is not an additional obstacle for them.
In cases where performance are critical it can be useful to disable
checks and asserts. GStreamer has those options too, using the same name
and setting them yielding means we can set those options on the main
project (e.g. gst-build) and glib will inherit the same value when built
as subproject.
`get_option('buildtype')` will return `'custom'` for most combinations
of `-Doptimization` and `-Ddebug`, but those two will always be set
correctly if only `-Dbuildtype` is set. So we should look at those
options directly.
For the two-way mapping between `buildtype` and `optimization`
+ `debug`, see this table:

The test code can be built on Windows using Cygwin or MSYS2.
Even though it's test code, it might bring assertion dialog box
for native Windows while meson configure.
There were a couple of custom paths which could end up being relative,
rather than absolute, due to not properly prefixing them with
`get_option('prefix')`.
The use of `join_paths()` here correctly drops all path components
before the final absolute path in the list of arguments. So if someone
configures GLib with an absolute path for `gio_module_dir`, that will be
used unprefixed; but if someone configures with a relative path, it will
be prefixed by `get_option('prefix)`.

This is required to be able to build the doc. The debian docker is still
pinned to 0.49.2 which ensure we can build with both versions of meson.
Meson 0.52.0 warns about adding -Wall flag manually, we can remove that
because warning_level=1 (the default) option already implies it.
By default (on POSIX) we would be inheriting thread priorities from the
thread that pushed a new task on non-exclusive thread pools and causes a
new thread to be created. This can cause any non-exclusive thread pool
to accidentally contain threads of different priorities, or e.g. threads
with real-time priority.
To prevent this, custom handling for setting the scheduler settings for
Linux and Windows is added and as a fallback for other platforms a new
thread is added that is responsible for spawning threads for
non-exclusive thread pools.

Instead of letting each directory to find its way to link with libdl,
it is easier to put the check in the top level, so its result can be
used by all directories.
It is a follow-up of https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/merge_requests/810.
Also set the Windows version to be 10 or newer when targeting UWP, since
the Windows 8 SDK does not have many of the APIs we need, such as
_beginthreadex.
We cannot bump to the latest stable version of Meson, even if it would
make our life easier. We can, though, use the version of Meson shipped
by the next, soon to be released Debian stable.
We're using the `install` argument for configure_file() all over the
place.
The support for an `install` argument for configure_file() was added in
Meson 0.50, but we haven't bumped the minimum version of Meson we
require, yet; which means we're getting compatibility warnings when
using recent versions of Meson, and undefined behaviour when using older
versions.
The configure_file() object defaults to `install: false`, unless an
install directory is used. This means that all instances of an `install`
argument with an explicit `true` or `false` value can be removed,
whereas all instances of `install` with a value determined from a
configuration option must be turned into an explicit conditional.
The plugin modules in these tests get statically linked with a separate
copy of GLib so they end up calling vfuncs in their own copy of GLib.

GLib checks for __sync_bool_compare_and_swap, and requires
__GCC_HAVE_SYNC_COMPARE_AND_SWAP_4 to be defined if the function is available,
except with special cases like Linux armv5.
Extend the existing workaround to unbreak on old gcc versions that implement
__sync_bool_compare_and_swap but don't provide __GCC_HAVE_* macros.
We need to enable building the dirent and gnulib sources for clang-cl,
as we are still using the Microsoft-style headers and lib's and CRT.
We need to also do this for the following, for similar reasoning:
-Symbol export (via __declspec(dllexport))
-Dependency discovery without pkg-config files
-long long and ssize_t detection
We do, however, enable the autoptr tests for clang-cl builds. Note that
at this point real MSVC builds are still better supported than clang-cl
builds, and it will likely remain so for at least the near future,
alhtough real MSVC builds of the GTK stack are consumable and are usable
by clang-cl.
We are still seeing occasional CI failures due to timeouts when heavily
loaded. It’s best to wait a little longer than to throw all the results
out when they’re almost done.

The code in gunicollate uses __STDC_ISO_10646__ to check that wchar.h is avilable,
that it includes the wide character related functions and that sizeof(wchar_t) == 4.
cygwin defines __STDC_ISO_10646__ and has sizeof(wchar_t) == 2 and the C standard text isn't
that clear on whether wchar_t should always be 4 bytes in this case, so we better not use if for
assuming the size here.
Instead of relying on __STDC_ISO_10646__ add HAVE_WCHAR_H and SIZEOF_WCHAR_T macros.
With HAVE_WCHAR_H defined we assume wchar_t exists and wchar.h exists. With SIZEOF_WCHAR_T we
guard the parts where the size of wchar_t is assumed to be 4 (currently all of them).
Note that this doesn't make the collate tests pass under cygwin, they fail before and after this patch for me.
See !755 for related discussions.
The correct spelling is "_NL_ABALTMON_n" rather than "_NL_ALTMON_n".
The typo made Meson build think that _NL_ABALTMON_n constants are
not supported which was totally wrong. This made g_date_time_format()
output incorrect abbreviated month names in some languages.
The old configure.ac script was correct here.

Add a missing ifdef from gfileutils.c that is needed for O_BINARY.
The other option was to remove O_BINARY, but i left it there for
the sake of completeness, as this is what g_file_get_contents() uses.
Instead of hardcoding /proc/self/cmdline use for __linux__ only,
do a configure-time test for it.
Specifically, this enables /proc/self/cmdline use on Cygwin.
The configure-time test is very primitive (just tests that the
file exists and that it's possible to read more than one byte from it),
relying on the testsuite for more extensive checks.
The test in the testsuite is modified to always run, even on platforms
where it isn't supposed to pass. If it fails there, the testing framework
skips it. If the test unexpectedly passes, that is reported too.
Check for RTLD_NEXT being present, and disable the gsocketclient-slow
test if it's absent, since the shlib dependency of that test requires
RTLD_NEXT to function.
This allows the testsuite to be built on Cygwin, which behaves
exactly like UNIX, but doesn't have RTLD_NEXT.
This macro was lost during meson migration. Set it again.
Also explain that Cygwin maintainers applied patches[0] to glib that
simply marked all G_PLATFORM_WIN32-protected code as !defined(G_WITH_CYGWIN),
i.e. they did not want that code to compile.
Instead of altering ifdef guards all over the place, we'll just
not define G_PLATFORM_WIN32 for Cygwin anymore.

It's necessary sometimes for installed tests to be able to run with a
custom environment. For example, the gsocketclient-slow test requires an
LD_PRELOADed library to provide a slow connect() (this is to be added in
a followup commit).
Introduce a variable `@env@` into the installed test template, which we
can override as necessary when generating `.test` files, to run tests
prefixed with `/usr/bin/env <LIST OF VARIABLES>`.
As the only test that requires this currently lives in `gio/tests/`, we
are only hooking this up for that directory right now. If other tests in
future require this treatment, then the support can be extended at that
point.

armv5 Linux systems implement __sync_bool_compare_and_swap() and
friends by calling a function provided by the kernel. This is not
technically an atomic intrinsic, so gcc doesn't define
__GCC_HAVE_SYNC_COMPARE_AND_SWAP_4 in this case, but it's good
enough for us. Extend the current Android special case to cover
GNU/Linux too.
The possibilities are:
* __sync_foo detected and __GCC_HAVE_SYNC_COMPARE_AND_SWAP_4 predefined:
calls to __atomic_foo or __sync_foo primitives are inlined into user
code by gatomic.h
* __sync_foo detected but __GCC_HAVE_SYNC_COMPARE_AND_SWAP_4 not
predefined: user code has an extern reference to g_atomic_foo(),
which calls __atomic_foo or __sync_foo because we defined
__GCC_HAVE_SYNC_COMPARE_AND_SWAP_4 when compiling GLib itself
* Windows: user code has an extern reference to g_atomic_foo(),
which calls InterlockedFoo()
* !defined(G_ATOMIC_LOCK_FREE): user code has an extern reference to
g_atomic_foo(), which emulates atomic operations with a mutex

FreeBSD 12 adds a new header, sys/auxv.h, to declare a function, elf_aux_info,
for public use, which was considered an internal function in previous releases.
This new function provides similar functionality with glibc getauxval, which is
also declared in the same header, but their interfaces are not compatible. Since
the only usage of sys/auxv.h is in g_check_setuid and FreeBSD already has
issetugid to provide the required functionality, we fixes the compilation error
by adding a check for getauxval function to prevent g_check_setuid from calling
getauxval when sys/auxv.h is found but getauxval is not available.

This is what Autotools does, and it's what all consumers of the
GModule API expect. Without this change, people on macOS upgrading to
a GLib built with Meson will find that their plugins no longer load.
Projects that use Meson and the `g_module_build_path()` API such as
glib-networking should pass `name_suffix:` to `shared_module()` to
ensure that plugins continue to be called libfoo.so on macOS.
New GModule API will eventually be added to address this.

The goal of this commit is to reduce differences between the autotools and meson build.
With autotools AC_FUNC_ALLOCA was used which defines HAVE_ALLOCA_H, HAVE_ALLOCA,
C_ALLOCA. meson tried to replicate that with has_function() but alloca can be a macro
and and is named _alloca under Windows. Since we require a working alloca anyway
and only need to know if the header exists replace AC_FUNC_ALLOCA with a simple
AC_CHECK_HEADERS.
There is still one user of HAVE_ALLOCA in the embedded gnulib, but since alloca is
always provided through galloca.h just force define HAVE_ALLOCA there and add a comment.
The docs were mentioning alloca as an example for cross compiling. Since that variable no
longer exists now replace it with another one.
Check for compile warnings when assigning an int64_t* to a long*,
make gint64 a long long if they occur and assigning an int64_t* to

well as autotools.

The autotools build set it by default and we use off_t in various places,
even on Windows. Also set it with the meson build to avoid any regressions.
Ideally we shouldn't use off_t and use 64bit capable API on Windows instead, so
we get large file support with MSVC as well.
See https://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2018-July/msg00004.html
for a discussion on if/when we can start relying on Python 3 only.
Use Python 3.4 as a new requirement because that's the version used in
SLES 12 and Debian 8 and there is no good reason to require something newer
right now.
The new python module, added with 0.46, works with Python 2 and 3 and
allows to pass a path for the interpreter to use, if the need arises.
Previously the meson build set PYTHON, used in the shebang line of
the scripts installed by glib, to the full path of the interpreter.
The new meson module doesn't expose that atm, but we should set it to
a executable name anyway, and not a full path.
When compiling third-party projects with -Wbad-function-cast, the inline
g_atomic_pointer_get() implementation which uses C11 __atomic_load*()
calls on GCC was causing compilation errors like:
error: cast from function call of type ‘long unsigned int’ to non-matching type ‘void *’
While we don’t want to compile all of GLib with -Wbad-function-cast, we
should support its headers being included in projects which do enable
that warning.
It doesn’t seem to be possible to cast away the warning (e.g. by casting
the function’s result through (void)), so we have to assign to an
intermediate integer of the right size first.
The same has to be done for the bool return value from
__sync_bool_compare_and_swap(). In that case, casting from bool to
gboolean raises a -Wbad-function-cast warning, since gboolean is
secretly int.
The atomic tests have been modified to enable -Wbad-function-cast to
catch regressions of this in future. The GLib build has conversely been
modified to set -Wno-bad-function-cast, just in case people have it set
in their environment CFLAGS.

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:

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.
We don’t strictly require this, but given that our CI runs it, we
essentially never test with 0.46.0, so it might as well be broken.

Autoconf macro AC_HEADER_MAJOR doesn't define a macro in config.h when
major is defined in sys/types.h. This was not a problem because major

which causes code using major to be disabled on systems putting major
in sys/types.h.
This commit defines a new macro MAJOR_IN_TYPES for both autotools and
meson builds to make major useful on these systems again.
cc.has_header checks whether a header exists without knowing whether it
can be used. This is a problem on FreeBSD because its malloc.h is a
header with an '#error' line which always throw compilation error. To
avoid false positive in the check result, we use cc.compiles to do a
full compilation test instead of cc.has_header which only does check
with preprocessor.
We have no way to test Solaris builds atm, and it is not even clear how

This caused an invalid mixtures of builtin and non-builtin atomics/locks
to be used, which caused deadlocks in a number of tests.
Fix the atomic ops test in meson.build, and the unit tests all start
working again.

This allows building with posix threads on Windows. It is generally
better to use win32 threads implementation on Windows, but this option
can be used in case it causes issues, or for performance comparison for
example.

win32_cflags gets used globally as cflags and exposed in the .pc file.
win32_ldflags gets passed to glib-2.0 and exposed in the .pc file.
This should match what the autotools build is currently doing with
GLIB_EXTRA_CFLAGS and G_LIBS_EXTRA.

-z nodelete breaks the libresourceplugin module usage in the resources.c
test, which expects to be able to unload it.
Make the Meson build match what the autotools build does: only pass
glib_link_flags to the headline libraries (glib-2.0, gio-2.0,
gobject-2.0, gthread-2.0, gmodule-2.0) and omit it from all other build
targets.

On Windows we use gnulib and elsewhere we use glibc or similar.
Also change G_GNUC_PRINTF to use gnu_printf instead of __format__ if
possible because __format__ evaluates to ms_printf under MinGW,
but we use gnulib there and not the system printf.
gnu_printf is only available with GCC>=4.4 and not with clang.

In https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=794555 the tests for
posix_memalign and stpcpy were extended to catch the case where
the compiler provides an incomplete builtin.
Under MSYS2 the example code still compiles and links while the real usage
of stpcpy fails to build. To prevent the MSYS2 gcc from using the builtin
versions pass -fno-builtin.

The winsock2-using test does work perfectly, however this is a new
thing that didn't exist in autotools-based builds of glib in the past.
Autotools builds used the generic case where values were just defined
to some agreed-upon numbers, and this is what all autotools-glib
binaries and binaries built against autotools-glib (since these
values go into public glibconfig.h header) use. At least one value,
G_POLLIN, is different, thus breaking ABI if some binaries are
built with autotools and the others are built with meson.
Force meson buildscript to use the same G_POLL* constant values
for Windows builds that autotools builds use.

When cross compiling and not exe wrapper has been defined cc.run() raise
an exception. Avoid this by taking the value from [properties] in the
cross file and provide sensible default if the variable is not defined.

Add a test for monitoring an existing local file, with the
WATCH_HARD_LINKS flag specified. This would previously cause a crash;
now it doesn’t.
This test contains a FIXME where I suspect we should be getting some
additional file change notifications from changes made through the hard
link; this requires further follow up and probably further fixes to our
inotify backend.

Accurate G_HAVE_GNUC_VISIBILITY is needed to correctly
define G_GNUC_INTERNAL later on. Autotools did that,
meson currently doesn't and opts to just set
G_HAVE_GNUC_VISIBILITY to 1 for all compilers except MSVC.
This leads to MinGW GCC having G_HAVE_GNUC_VISIBILITY=1,
which results in G_GNUC_INTERNAL being defined to
__attribute__((visibility("hidden"))), which is not supported.
Because cc.compiles() does not support override_options or
anything like that, we just feed it '-Werror' as-is, since
MSVC is known as not supporting visibility attributes anyway.

GCC has built-ins for these functions, which might give a compile-only
test an impression that the functions are actually present in the C runtime.
Use a linked test to be sure.
Specifically, both functions are missing on Windows.

Supports %OB (alternative, standalone, nominative) month name along
with the old %B (primary, in a complete date format context, genitive)
month name. Similarly %Ob and %Oh for abbreviated month names.
Depending on the underlying operating system uses nl_langinfo()
or provides our custom implementation.

Since commit 96ebcee8c4, we don’t actually need libmount 2.28. Lower our
dependency to 2.23 so that we can continue to build against CentOS 7.

Building against libmount installed into a non-default prefix wasn’t
working, as we were using #include <libmount/libmount.h> rather than
the correct #include <libmount.h> — all the mount.pc pkg-config files
set `Cflags: -I${includedir}/libmount`.
Fixing this while retaining the fallback support for versions of
libmount without a pkg-config file would have been tricky (we would need
to work out a suitable -I flag to set in LIBMOUNT_CFLAGS) to still be
able to use the correct #include path). Thankfully, libmount gained
pkg-config support a long time ago, so I think we can safely drop the
fallback code. In particular, Debian Jessie, Ubuntu Trusty, and CentOS 5
all ship a mount.pc file.

GLib makes various assumptions about aliasing throughout its codebase,
and compiling with -fstrict-aliasing has been demonstrated to cause
problems (for example, bug #791622). Explicitly disable strict aliasing
as a result.

As 'auto' dependency checking has been declared undesirable,
skip checking of optional dependencies where the option
defaults to true, but where the option doesn't make sense for
the operating system we're building for. Example: selinux only
makes sense on Linux, people compiling on Windows or macOS
shouldn't have to specify -Dselinux=false to get glib to build.
