Using the generic marshaller has drawbacks beyond performance. One such
drawback is that it breaks the stack unwinding from the Linux kernel due
to having unsufficient data to walk past ffi_call_unixt64. That means that
performance profiling by application developers looks grouped among
seemingly unrelated code paths.
While we can't fix the kernel unwinding here, we can provide proper
c_marshallers and va_marshallers for objects within Gio so that
performance profiling of applications is more reliable.

The most useful ones were already listed in the pkg-config file, but
some others (notably, `gio-querymodules`) were not. List them in the
pkg-config file with their installed paths so that the right binary is
used if GIO is installed in a non-default path.

Fixes: #1796
Currently, there is no way to prevent tests from building using meson.
When cross-compiling, building the tests isn't necessary.
Instead, only build the tests on the following conditions:
1) If not cross-compiling.
2) If cross-compiling, and there is an exe wrapper.
Almost everything that needs gioenumtypes.h also needs

Turns out the fix in commit 93555577c wasn't enough, when using glib as
subproject and the parent project uses only libgio_dep, and include
<gi18n.h>, it won't find libintl.h because it's in the
include_directories of libglib_dep. Fix that by declaring dependencies
explicitly, which is the right thing to do since glib and gobject are
public dependencies of gio. That reflects what we do for the pkg-config
file as well.
When using glib as subproject we are forced to pass glib_dep,
gobject_dep and gio_dep to any build target. If we pass only gio_dep it
will missing include directory for glib and gobject.
This avoids the convenience library being treated as though it was
an installed static library (objects not included in the dependent
static library, and convenience library being listed in the pkg-config
metadata), both of which would make static linking impossible.

1) Remove the non-Windows-only condition for subdir('tests').
2) Add libiphlpapi, libws2_32 and libsecur32 deps, needed for W32 tests.
3) Remove the -no-undefined argument (gcc doesn't understand it,
it *does* understand -Wl,-no-undefined; either way, the test
compiles without this argument just fine; maybe meson adds it
by itself - you can hardly build shared modules without it).
4) Add or fix a number of includes
5) Disable gdbus-objectmanager tests when building with MSVC
(right now these tests don't work on Windows anyway, so the fact
that MSVC can't even build them properly is irrelevant;
most likely gdbus-codegen needs changes to put _GLIB_EXTERN
before each function)
GSettings XML schema files are installed in a well known directory
under Glib's installation directory: `glib-2.0/schemas`. However,
the Glib installation directory might vary, so the exact location of
the schema files might be unknown.
The information regarding this directory has been added to GIO's
pkg-config file, so it can be checked, and also overrided, by using
the command line utility.
7efd76dd67 added these configure time tests to work around a bug
with older Android. Since the test didn't take Windows into account it
wrongfully applied the workaround on Windows too, breaking the build.
With meson this wasn't an issue since the check is skipped on Windows there
and our CI didn't catch this issue.
Change the test to run on Android only for meson and autotools.
This also makes it clear that the test+code can be dropped again if we stop
supporting older Android versions at some point.
In order to use the new posix_spawn gspawn codepath, for more robust
app launching when available memory is low, we need to meet some
conditions.
child_setup needs to be NULL for this optimization to work, so drop
the internal child_setup that is used here. Replace it with a lightweight
wrapper binary (gio-launch-desktop) that sets GIO_LAUNCHED_DESKTOP_FILE_PID
before executing the app.
Adjust PATH for gio tests so that it can execute the new binary from the
build directory.
GVfs utils used to have bash completion, which was pretty useful. However,
it hasn't been ported to gio tool unfortunately. GLib provides completion
for various utils already, so it would be nice to provide completion also
for gio tool. I've updated old bash completion code and merged with some
my old unmerged fixes.
The gvfs completion used "gvfs-ls --show-completions" helper. This mentioned
option hasn't been obviously ported to "gio list" and the proposed completion
doesn't add this option in "gio list" to not pollute the codes, but maybe it
is a bit slower as consequence.
The proposed bash completion suggests subcommands, uris and paths including
the remote mounts. It contains some workarounds, especially because of proper
handling of paths with colons and other special chars (like spaces)...
libelf, just like libc, is not a single project. It is an interface
which can be implemented independently by different operating systems.
Therefore, we cannot expect all systems to provide a .pc file, and we
should fallback to cc.find_library and cc.has_function like what we
already do in autotools build.
gio-querymodules-wrapper.py is copied from glib-networking. This python
wrapper script is needed because meson.build cannot check for DESTDIR
env variable itself, unlike Makefile.am. It is used to update
giomodule.cache file when installing GIO modules like fam.
- Compiler checks were failing because it were using C compiler to build
objc code.
- xdgmime is needed on osx too.
- -DGIO_COMPILATION must be passed to objc compiler too.
- gapplication doesn't build on osx, it is excluded in autotools too.
We have to be careful when we use add_project_link_arguments(): All
targets are built using link arguments for the C language, except for
libgio on osx which use the objc language, because it contains some ".m"
source files. See https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/3585.

Those files got renamed to .c to work around an automake issue, but
Meson needs them to have .m extension. Better rename them at build time
in Makefile.am since that's where the workaround is needed.

On non-glibc platforms gettext is provided by extra libintl dependency.
We wrongly thought libintl is an internal dependency and applications
needs to explicitly link on it, but turns out that breaks many
applications and with autotools the .pc generated actually has -lintl in
public "Libs:".

-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.

This adds a null notification backend implementation for win32, purely
to avoid crashes due to a missing backend when applications use
GNotification. This backend does nothing except print a warning when a
notification is supposed to be emitted.
In future, it can be expanded to use win32 API to present toaster
notifications appropriately.

res_query() uses global state in the form of the struct __res_state
which contains the contents of resolv.conf (and other things). On Linux,
this state seems to be thread-local, so there is no problem. On OS X,
however, it is not, and hence multiple res_query() calls from parallel
threads will compete and return bogus results.
The fix for this is to use res_nquery(), introduced in BIND 8.2, which
takes an explicit state argument. This allows us to manually store the
state thread-locally. If res_nquery() isn’t available, we fall back to
res_query(). It should be available on OS X though. As a data point,
it’s available on Fedora 27.
There’s a slight complication in the fact that OS X requires the state
to be freed using res_ndestroy() rather than res_nclose(). Linux uses
res_nclose().
(See, for example, the NetBSD man page:
https://www.unix.com/man-page/netbsd/3/res_ninit/. The Linux one is
incomplete and not so useful:
http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/resolver.3.html.)
The new code will call res_ninit() once per res_nquery() task. This is
not optimal, but no worse than before — since res_query() was being
called in a worker thread, on Linux, it would implicitly initialise the
thread-local struct __res_state when it was called. We’ve essentially
just made that explicit. In practical terms, this means a
stat("/etc/resolv.conf") call per res_nquery() task.
In future, we could improve this by using an explicit thread pool with
some manually-created worker threads, each of which initialises a struct
__res_state on spawning, and only updates it on receiving
the #GResolver::reload signal.
