DBus has recently introduced new message flag
DBUS_HEADER_FLAG_ALLOW_INTERACTIVE_AUTHORIZATION, which tells that
caller is willing to wait for unspecified amount of time for the call
to return, as the service may perform interactive authorization (e.g.
using polkit).

This allows the caller to know when a socket has been bound so that
it can for instance set the SO_SENDBUF and SO_RECVBUF socket options
before listen is called

Remove all event merging and dispatch logic from GFileMonitor. The only
implementation of GFileMonitor outside of glib is in gvfs and it already
does these things properly.
Get rid of GLocalDirectoryMonitor. We will use a single class,
GLocalFileMonitor, for both directory and file monitoring. This will
prevent every single backend from having to create two objects
separately (eg: ginotifydirectorymonitor.c and ginotifyfilemonitor.c).
Introduce GFileMonitorSource as a thread-safe cross-context dispatch
mechanism. Put it in GLocalFileMonitor. All backends will be expected
to dispatch via the source and not touch the GFileMonitor object at all
from the worker thread.
Remove all construct properties from GLocalFileMonitor and remove the
"context" construct property from GFileMonitor. All backends must now
get the information about what file to monitor from the ->start() call
which is mandatory to implement.
Remove the implementation of rate limiting in GFileMonitor and add an
implementation in GLocalFileMonitor. gvfs never did anything with this
anyway, but if it wanted to, it would have to implement it for itself.
This was done in order to get the rate_limit field into the
GFileMonitorSource so that it could be safely accessed from the worker
thread.
Expose g_local_file_is_remote() internally for NFS detection.
With the "is_remote" functionality exposed, we can now move all
functions for creating local file monitors to a proper location in
glocalfilemonitor.c
Port the inotify backend to adjust to the changes above. None of the
other backends are ported yet. Those will come in future commits.
Add a property to GNetworkMonitor indicating the level of network
connectivity: none/local, limited, stuck behind a portal, or full.
The default implementation just returns none or full depending on the
value of is-available.

Add G_IO_ERROR_CONNECTION_CLOSED as an alias for
G_IO_ERROR_BROKEN_PIPE, and also return it on ECONNRESET.
It doesn't really make sense to try to distinguish EPIPE and
ECONNRESET at the GLib level, since the exact choice of which error
gets returned in what conditions depends on the OS. Given that, we
ought to map the two errors to the same value, and since we're already
mapping EPIPE to G_IO_ERROR_BROKEN_PIPE, we need to map ECONNRESET to
that too. But the existing name doesn't really make sense for sockets,
so we add a new name.

These did show up in the html. Since symbol names are checked for a
trailing plural s when generating the docs, the links stay functional
after removing these comments.

Add G_DBUS_ERROR codes for:
* org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownObject
* org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownInterface
* org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownProperty
* org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.PropertyReadOnly
These were discussed on the dbus mailing list
and introduced in the following libdbus commit:
2c34514620c4b79ea4ec71d1db583379138d01ac

Map EPROTONOSUPPORT, ESOCKTNOSUPPORT, EPFNOSUPPORT and EAFNOSUPPORT to
G_IO_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED in g_io_error_from_errno(). (GSocket's
socket_io_error_from_errno() already did this with the corresponding
Winsock errors.)
Also map EOPNOTSUPP, which on Linux is the same as ENOTSUP, but may
not be on other platforms.
Also, rewrite the EAGAIN/EWOULDBLOCK section to use the simpler idiom
used by EEXIST/ENOTEMPTY and (now) ENOTSUP/EOPNOTSUPP.
There are a number of nice things this class brings:
0) Has a race-free termination API on all platforms (on UNIX, calls to
kill() and waitpid() are coordinated as not to cause problems).
1) Operates in terms of G{Input,Output}Stream, not file descriptors
2) Standard GIO-style async API for wait() with cancellation
3) Makes some simple cases easy, like synchronously spawning a
process with an argument list
4) Makes hard cases possible, like asynchronously running a process
with stdout/stderr merged, output directly to a file path
Much rewriting and code review from Ryan Lortie <desrt@desrt.ca>

Sometimes the application doesn't want to autostart a service
when it creates a proxy, but wants the service autostarted when
it makes the first method call. Allow that behavior with a new
flag.

The documentation was suggesting that using G_APPLICATION_IS_SERVICE
would automatically set an inactivity timeout (ie: app stays around for
a while after the use count drops to zero).
In reality, it only adds an initial 10 second wait for the first
activation message to arrive after which it uses the normal inactivity
timeout mechanism.
Add a new GFileMonitorFlag: G_FILE_MONITOR_WATCH_HARD_LINKS. When set,
changes made to the file via another hard link will be detected.
Implement the new flag for the inotify backend.

* Add resolver functions for looking up DNS records of
various types. Currently implemented: MX, TXT, SOA, SRV, NS
* Return records as GVariant tuples.
* Make the GSrvTarget lookups a wrapper over this new
functionality.
* Rework the resolver test so that it has support for
looking up MX, NS, SOA, TXT records, and uses GOptionContext

This is needed because glib-mkenums doesn't handle #ifdef values in
enums, and so it needs to have all values always defined in the enum.
When not available, define the missing values to a negative value.
This is useful when using certain D-Bus services where the
PropertiesChanged signal does not include the property value such as
e.g. various systemd mechanisms, see e.g.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37632
Signed-off-by: David Zeuthen <davidz@redhat.com>
When the flags enum only has the default NONE = 0 entry, glib-mkenums
creates an enum type for it, not a flags type. Add an annotation to the
enum to ensure the correct GType is created.
Bug #667938.
GResource is a bundle of files combined into a single binary blog.
The API lets you access the files the resource contains by
using resource paths. You can also register resources with a
global list and access these globally in a merged resource namespace.
The normal way this is used is to link in the resources into your
application/library and have it be automatically registred.
Resources are compiled from an xml description using
glib-compile-resources.
This can be used for debugging, or for progress UIs ("Connecting to
example.com..."), or to do low-level tweaking on the connection at
various points in the process.
