We previously hold a lock in the loop that collects the arguments for
g_signal_emit(), which we drop before calling into the argument
collection functions and reacquire again at the bottom of the loop (ie:
one release/acquire pair for each argument collected). To make matters
worse, the lock is just released again after the loop.
Presumably that was done to protect the access to the parameter array,
but it's pretty unlikely that this is needed because the only way it
changes is if the signal is unloaded. That only happens when unloading
types which is quite unlikely to happen while we are emitting on an
instance of that type (and, as an aside, never happens anymore anyway).
If we move the unlock below the loop up above it and remove the
acquire/release pair from the loop, we improve performance in the new
arg-collecting performance tests by ~15% (more like ~18% in the case
where we only emit to one handler -- where argument collection dominates
more).

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.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=700746
When looking up signals by name (to connect, for example) and the named
signal cannot be found on the given instance, report the type of the
instance.
This is quite a lot more useful as a diagnostic message than only a
memory address.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=694350
We need to keep a reference to the handler in the fast path, just like
in the slow path, otherwise if another thread disconnects the handler
we may destroy the closure while we're using it without the lock held.
We also move the freeing of the instance to after the emission is totally
done as the handler_unref_R (and the tracepoint) reference it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=694253
handler_ref and handler_unref_R are always called with the signal
lock held. This is obvious for handler_unref_R as it even sometimes
drops this lock, and can be verified quickly for handler_ref by looking
at all call sites.
This improves the performace about 6% on the emit-handled and the
emit-handled-generic tests.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=694253
This is the bug that has been causing segfaults and criticals when accel
keys are used to close windows via GtkUIManager.
The main cause of this problem was a mistake made in the original patch
when modifying the handler_lookup() to take the extra 'closure'
parameter. The original check used was:
if (handler->sequential_number == handler_id ||
(closure && handler->closure == closure))
It was called to find a particular closure like so:
handler_lookup (instance, 0, closure, &signal_id);
The problem is that the check will return if either the signal ID or
closure matches (if a closure was given). The calling code assumes 0 to
be an invalid signal ID which will match no handlers, but unfortunately
the rest of gsignal code uses this to denote a signal that has already
been disconnected. The result is that this function was searching for a
matching closure _or_ the first already-disconnected handler. When it
found the already-disconnected handler, we'd get criticals and crashes.
The condition has been corrected; it now ignores the handler_id
parameter if the closure parameter is non-NULL.
While we're in here, change the lifecycle of the invalidation notify to
be easier to understand.
Before, the notify was removed when the last reference on the handler
dropped. This could happen in very many situations; often at the end of
an emission. Instead, we now tie the registration of the notifier to
the lifecycle of the signal connection. When the signal is disconnected
we remove the notification, even if other references are held (eg:
because it is currently being dispatched).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=690118
Modify gsignal to automatically disconnect a GClosure that becomes
invalid (in the g_closure_invalidate() sense).
Previously, when g_signal_connect_object() was used with a GObject as
the user_data and that object was destroyed, the handler would no longer
be called but the signal handler was itself was not disconnected (ie:
the bookkeeping data was kept around).
The main effect of this patch is that these signal handlers will now
be automatically disconnected (and fully freed).
The documentation for g_signal_connect_object() has anticipated this
change for over 10 years and has advised the following workaround when
disconnecting signal handlers connected with g_signal_connect_object():
if (g_signal_handler_is_connected (instance, id))
g_signal_handler_disconnect (instance, id);
If your code follows this practice then it will continue to work.
If your code never disconnects the signal handler then it was wasting
memory before (and this commit fixes that).
If your code unconditionally disconnects the signal handler then you
will start to see (harmless) g_critical() warnings about this and you
should fix them.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=118536
If the optimization is used for only having one closure handling a
signal emission, then hooks will not be run, so it should be disabled
when an emission hook is added.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=671918
The trace of the signal emission of the was calculating the instance
type after the instance was unrefed. Fix this by keeping the instance type around.
When there is only one closure handling a signal emission and
it doesn't have a bunch of complicated features enabled we
can short circuit the va_args collection into GValues and call the
callback via the va_marshaller directly.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=661140
If the signal argumment types matches a built in standard
marshaller we use the va_marshaller for that, and also the
normal marshaller if NULL was specified (as its faster than
the generic one).
This lets you set a va_marshaller on your signal which will be
propagated to all closures for the signal. Also, automatically
uses the generica va_marshaller if you specify a NULL c_marshaller.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=661140
This means we're not abusing the notifiers for meta_marshallres,
and we're able to later cleanly add other fields to GClosure.
We still have to leave the ABI intact for the GClosure->meta_marshal
bit, as old G_CLOSURE_N_NOTIFIERS macro instances still accesses it.
However, we always set it to zero to keep those macros working.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=661140
Similar to G_PARAM_DEPRECATED. It will warn only for users of the
signals, so a signal can still be emited without warning, for
compatibility reasons.
Apparently, there is no way user flags could have been used before,
so that shouldn't break anyone.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=663581
To help cross compilation, don't use glib-genmarshal in our
build. This is easy now that we have g_cclosure_marshal_generic().
In gobject/, add gmarshal.[ch] to git (making the existing entry
points stubs).
In gio/, simply switch to using g_cclosure_marshal_generic().
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=652168
In some cases, signal arguments have to be collected, even if there are i
no signal handlers connected (e.g. for GVariant parameters, where collection
consumes a floating variant).
Based on a patch by Christian Persch.
Bug #643624.
This adds static markers and systemtap tapsets for:
* type creation
* object lifetimes (creation, ref, unref, dispose, finalize)
* signal creation and emission
Signal emissions and finalization marker have a corresponding
*_end (or *-end in dtrace) version that is when the corresponding
operation is finished.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=606044
The reason we need to enforce this is that the GTypeValueTable
documentation explicitly states that memory is memset to 0 when the
value_init function is called.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=603590
Makes g_signal_emit_valist from 15% to 20% faster.
Results reported from profiling the pan newsreader which uses a variant

Bug 541208 – Functions to easily install and use signals without
class struct slot
* gobject.symbols
* gsignal.[ch] (g_signal_new_class_handler): the same as

primarily for language bindings:
(g_signal_override_class_handler): to override a signal with a
callback instead of a class struct slot.
(g_signal_chain_from_overridden_handler): to chain up from a
signal without class struct slot. The API is similar to
g_signal_emit().

->finalize_hook member in the hooklist now that gets
called when a hook should be destroyed, that's it.
that function is guarranteed to be called only when
all ref_counts to the hook vanished, thus also when
the hook is not in call.
Thu Mar 8 16:35:48 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gparamspecs.[hc]: s/g_param_spec_string_c/g_param_spec_stringc/.
* gsignal.[hc]: fixed accumulator invocation, implemented emission
hooks. and no, neither of these callbacks are called via a closure,
language bindings can wrap the accumulator and emission hook
interface, they already get parameters marshalled into a GValue array.
(g_signal_connect): removed this function as its C specific, doesn't
cover the swapped argument, is too close to its broken original
gtk_signal_connect() and creates demand for _swapped, _after and
_swapped_after variants <brrr>.
(g_signal_connectc): convenience macro to connect a C handler
func with data, like the old g_signal_connect() plus swapped
argument.
* gtype.h:
* gboxed.c: added G_TYPE_VALUE boxed type.
Wed Mar 7 09:36:33 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gboxed.[hc]: changed prototype of g_boxed_type_register_static()
to contain an optional init function and a hint at whether the
boxed structure uses ref counting internally.
added g_value_set_boxed_take_ownership().
made G_TYPE_BOXED an abstract value type.
* genums.[hc]: made G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS abstract value
types.
* glib-genmarshal.c: argument type changes, preparation for third-party
arg specification.
* gobject.[hc]: cleaned up get/set property code.
added g_strdup_value_contents() to improve warnings.
* gparam.[hc]: added g_param_value_convert(), taking over responsibility
of the old g_value_convert(). added G_PARAM_LAX_VALIDATION flag so
validation alterations may be valid a part of the property setting
process.
* gparamspecs.[hc]: made value comparisons stable (for sort applications).
added GParamSpecValueArray, a param spec for value arrays and
GParamSpecClosure. nuked the value exchange functions and
GParamSpecCCallback.
* gtype.[hc]: catch unintialized usages of the type system with
g_return_val_if_uninitialized(). introduced G_TYPE_FLAG_VALUE_ABSTRACT
to flag types that introduce a value table, but can't be used for
g_value_init(). cleaned up reserved type ids.
* gvalue.[hc]: code cleanups and saner checking.
nuked the value exchange API. implemented value transformations, we
can't really "convert" values, rather transforms are an anylogy to
C casts, real conversions need a param spec for validation, which is
why g_param_value_convert() does real conversions now.
* gvaluearray.[hc]: new files that implement a GValueArray, a struct
that can hold inhomogeneous arrays of value (to that extend that it
also allowes undefined values, i.e. G_VALUE_TYPE(value)==0).
this is exposed to the type system as a boxed type.
* gvaluetransform.c: new file implementing most of the former value
exchange functions as single-sided transformations.
* gvaluetypes.[hc]: nuked G_TYPE_CCALLBACK, added
g_value_set_string_take_ownership().
* *.h: s/G_IS_VALUE_/G_VALUE_HOLDS_/.
* *.[hc]: many fixes and cleanups.
* many warning improvements.
Tue Feb 27 18:35:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gobject.c (g_object_get_valist): urg, pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS
into G_VALUE_LCOPY(), this needs proper documenting.
* gparam.c: fixed G_PARAM_USER_MASK.
* gtype.c (type_data_make_W):
(type_data_last_unref_Wm): fixed invalid memory freeing.
* gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): destroy signal handlers associated
with object, right before finalization.
* gsignal.c (g_signal_parse_name): catch destroyed nodes or signals
that don't actually support details.
* gobject.[hc]: got rid of property trailers. nuked GObject
properties "data" and the "signal" variants.
(g_object_connect): new convenience function to do multiple
signal connections at once.
(g_object_disconnect): likewise, for disconnections.
* gparam.[hc] (g_param_spec_pool_lookup): took out trailer support.
* gvalue.[hc]: marked g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_peek_pointer()
as private (the latter got renamed from g_value_get_as_pointer()).
Wed Mar 7 09:32:06 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib-object.h: add gvaluearray.h.
* gstring.[hc]: fixup naming of g_string_sprint*.
* gtypes.h: fixed GCompareDataFunc naming.
Wed Mar 7 09:33:27 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gobject/Makefile.am: shuffled rules to avoid excessive
rebuilds.
* gobject/gobject-sections.txt: updates.
* gobject/tmpl/*: bunch of updates, added another patch
from Eric Lemings <eric.b.lemings@lmco.com>.
Wed Feb 21 18:31:46 2001 Jonathan Blandford <jrb@redhat.com>
* gsignal.h (g_signal_connect): Add g_signal_connect define to
make porting from gtk_signal_connect easy.
