This code is used in the property notification path, so it

treats the common case of just a single data element better.
Apply the same optimization that was done for g_unichar_get_script
long ago: Use a quick check for the low end, and then remember the
midpoint of the last bsearch, since we're likely to be called for
characters that are close to each other.
This change made g_unichar_iswide disappear from profiles of the
gtk3-demo listbox example.
Store the (translated, UTF-8-encoded) error strings in a hash table to

Add a check to configure.ac for strerror_r, since we don't currently
require POSIX.1-2001 conformance in general. Add back a
plain-strerror() case as a fallback, and rearrange the glibc-vs-POSIX
strerror_r() branches.
Update the docs to not claim that "not all platforms support the
strerror() function" (we require C90), but still mention the UTF-8 and
always-valid-string benefits. (And make test_strerror() check that
last part.)

Many of the append and prepend variants are just thin wrappers
around another one. Remove parameter checking in the wrapper
for these cases. The wrapped function is checking them anyway.
Unrolling the branches and expressions for all expected cases
of UTF-8 sequences facilitates the work of both an optimizing compiler
and the branch prediction logic in the CPU. This speeds up decoding
noticeably on text composed primarily of longer sequences.

The number of branches and logical operations can be reduced by
never producing a resulting wide character value to check its range.

TAP allows you to print the "test plan" (ie, the expected number of

put it at the end, and the program crashes, automake will complain
"missing test plan", which is confusing to users (particularly since
it prints that *before* it prints that the test program crashed,
suggesting that somehow the lack of test plan was responsible for the
crash or something, rather than vice versa).
Anyway, change it to count the tests ahead of time, and print the test
plan first. Keeping this simple requires disallowing the '-p', '-s',

already printing the wrong number in the --GTestSkipCount case
anyway).

If we call time(NULL), then do something (however trivial), then call
g_date_time_new_now_utc(), they do not necessarily share a seconds
value. Let's say the gmtime call takes 2ms. time(NULL) could
return xx:xx:23 when the time is actually xx:xx:23.999999, resulting
in the g_date_time_new_now_utc() happening at xx:xx:24.000001. This is
unlikely, but did happen to me in a parallel build:

is not sufficient; and so on into higher-order fields.

Our signal handler calls write() on a pipe or an eventfd in order to

similar API in libgsystem has proven to be extremely popular, so let's

We ignore deprecation warnings when emitting the free functions, which

OS.
This API is done as:
-GetVersion()/GetVersionEx() changed in the way they work since Windows 8.1
[1][2], so a newer mechanism to check the version of the running Windows
operating system is needed. MSDN also states that GetVersion() might be
further changed or removed after Windows 8.1. This provides a wrapper for
VerfyVersionInfo() as well in GLib for most cases, which was recommended
in place of g_win32_get_windows_version() for more detailed Windows
version checking.
-Provides an OS-level functionality check, for those that we don't need to
venture into GetProcAddress(), and also to determine system API behavior
changes due to differences in OS versions.
Also added a note for the g_win32_get_windows_version() API that since the
behavior of GetVersion() which it uses, is changed since Windows 8.1, users
of the API should be aware.

If a given fd is being polled by multiple sources, we used to pass it
multiple times to g_poll(), which is technically illegal (and not
supported by the select()-based fallback implementation of poll() in
gpoll.c), and also made it more likely that we'd exceed the maximum
number of pollfds.
Fix it to merge together "duplicate" GPollFDs. The easiest way to do
this involves re-sorting context->poll_records into fd order rather
than priority order. This means we now have to walk the entire pollrec
list for every g_main_context_query() and g_main_context_poll(),
rather than only walking the list up to the current max_priority.
However, this will only have a noticeable effect if you have tons of
GPollFDs, and we're already too slow in that case anyway because of
other O(n) operations that happen too often. So this shouldn't change

We called getopt() to try to find out of the platform on which we are
running defaults to strict POSIX-style argument handling (ie: flags
following the first filename are considered as further filenames rather
than flags).
This is the default case on BSDs, for example. It is also the case on
GNU systems with the POSIXLY_CORRECT environment variable set.
Unfortunately many of our tools rely on being able to accept commandline
arguments in the non-strict ordering and the code for making these calls
is spread widely (for example in Makefile fragments invoking some of our
build tools).
For this reason we need to revert the getopt() check and only enable
strict POSIX mode in the case that the application explicitly opts into
it using the _set_strict_posix() API.

Document that one must not use the "by id" source APIs with non-existent
IDs. The real justification behind this restriction is that the reuse
of source ids makes it unsafe to call these functions unless you're
absolutely sure that the source exists and it belongs to you. If you
call one of these functions on a source that may already have been
removed then you run the risk of finding someone else's source (with
your reused id).
This also bails us out of a slightly tricky situation with respect to
the threadsafety of g_main_context_find_source_by_id(). The fact that
this function doesn't return a reference implies that its return value
cannot be safely accessed unless we already know for sure that a
reference is being held elsewhere (by example, by the main context
itself if we know that the source has not been removed). The function
itself, however, performs an access to the value, which could result in
a crash.
If we mandate that it is only valid to call this function on
known-to-exist source IDs then we dodge this problem.

This confused me for a while, because it isn't the same as D-Bus.
Like GVariant, the D-Bus serialization needs an out-of-band
endianness and type indicator, but unlike GVariant, serialized
D-Bus objects encapsulate their own length (often by starting with
a byte-count). This does come at some redundancy cost, so I can see
why the more efficient GVariant format does this the way it does;
but it's a difference between D-Bus and GVariant that seems worth
calling out.
It's also relevant for the designers of file or message-framing
formats: with D-Bus serialization it would be feasible to say "the file
starts with a little-endian D-Bus variant, followed by...",
but in GVariant you wouldn't be able to deserialize the variant
unless you either assume that it extends to end-of-file, or have
an explicit length.

Practically no caller of these functions require atomic behaviour,
but the atomics are much slower than normal operations, which makes
it desirable to get rid of them. We have not done this before because
that would be a break of the ABI.
However, I recently looked into this and it seems that even if the
atomics *are* used for g_clear_* it is not ever safe to use this. The
atomics protects two threads that are racing to free a global/shared
object from freeing the object twice. However, any *user* of the global
object have no protection from the object being freed while in use,
because there is no paired operation the reads and refs the object
as an atomic unit (nor can such an operation be implemented using
purely atomic ops).
So, since nothing could safely have used the atomic aspects of these
functions I consider it acceptable to just remove it.

This reverts commit 7269d75321.
Adding G_STATIC_ASSERT() into a header file caused compilation
problems with at least one app (Anjuta). Reverting to keep
GNOME continuous testing running.

This code assumes that int is exactly 4 bytes, and that pointers
are either 4 or 8 bytes, on platforms with __ATOMIC_SEQ_CST.
In practice this is going to be true.

Since we are getting passed Unicode values these global vars
might not have the correct value. Instead always get the wide arguments
and convert them to utf8 to use them.

Detect the following two errors:
- attempting to unlock a mutex that is not locked
- attempting to clear a mutex that was not initialised or was
initialised but is still locked
Both of these are fatal errors. We avoid using g_error() here because
doing so would involve calls back into the GMutex code, and if things
are going off the rails then we want to avoid that.

If we have futex(2) then we can implement GMutex natively and gain a
substantial performance increase (vs. using pthreads).
This also avoids the need to allocate an extra structure in memory when
using GMutex or GCond: we can use the structure directly.
The main reason for the increase in performance is that our
implementation can be made more simple: we don't need to support the
array of options on pthread_mutex_t (which includes the possibility, for
example, of being recursive).
The result is a ~30% improvement in uncontended cases and a much larger
increase (3 to 4 times) in contended cases for a simple testcase.

When GLib had been told to expect message X, but then actually saw
message Y, it would log the "did not see expected message" error with
message Y's log level and domain, which makes no sense. Change it to
log with domain "GLib" and G_LOG_LEVEL_CRITICAL instead.
Also, include the expected domain in the error message, so that if
that's the reason why the expectation didn't match, you can tell that
from the error message.
Update glib/tests/testing.c for these changes; for all other test
programs in GLib and elsewhere, this change should not break any
existing tests, it should only improve the output on failure.

...so that builds of GLib on x64 Visual C++ can be restored, as the build
fails in line 449 of valgrind.h as it only supports MinGW/GCC for x64
Windows and simply will not build otherwise. Make the x64 Visual C++
builds compile again by defining NVALGRIND when GLib is being built for
Windows on x64 Visual C++.
