The documentation for G_TYPE_CHAR says:
"The type designated by G_TYPE_CHAR is unconditionally an 8-bit signed
integer."
However the return value for g_value_get_char() was just "char" which
in C has an unspecified signedness; on e.g. x86 it's signed (which
matches the GType), but on e.g. PowerPC or ARM, it's not.
We can't break the old API, so we need to suck it up and add new API.
Port most internal users, but keep some tests of the old API too.

Otherwise we might collide with an interface called Connection.

This is for the same reason that GDBusProxy has its properties
prefixed with g-.

We ignore entries with mountpoint of "swap" and "ignore". Add "none" to
that list, since Debian uses it.
Probably we should move to using our already-existing internal list of
things to ignore, but this patch is more minimally intrusive for now.

Commit afa82ae805 introduced a compilation
regression on BSD systems that use the sysctl(3) interface; we need to
declare the buffer len in _g_get_unix_mount_points()
BZ #659528
In registration_data_export_interface(), the object_path is obtained using:
object_path = g_dbus_object_get_object_path (G_DBUS_OBJECT (data->object));
But when exporting an object uniquely, the object_path is not assigned
to the GDBusObject until after all the interfaces are exported.
Therefore, registration_data_export_interface() is trying to export
the interface on the non-unique object path, which can lead to
run-time errors if an object already exists on that path.
Instead, registration_data_export_interface() should be passed the
object_path explicitly, as is done in
g_dbus_object_manager_server_export_unlocked().

Ensure that the output/target stream in a g_output_stream_splice_async()
operation is marked as closed if G_OUTPUT_STREAM_SPLICE_CLOSE_TARGET is
passed to g_output_stream_splice_async(). This removes the possibility of
local FDs being closed twice because the stream's not marked as closed.
This is implemented by calling g_output_stream_close() from within
g_output_stream_splice_async() instead of calling the stream's close_fn()
directly.
Closes: bgo#659324
Otherwise, we could use-after-free the GDBusWorker, if its last-unref
is immediately after _g_dbus_worker_new returns (before the worker thread
does its initial read).

This member is written in _g_dbus_worker_stop from arbitrary threads, and
read by the worker thread, so it should be accessed atomically.

We can't safely close the output part of the I/O stream until any
pending write or flush has been completed. In the worst case, this could
lead to an assertion failure in the worker (when the close wins the
race) or not closing the stream at all (when the write wins the race).

num_writes_pending was a counter, but it only took values 0 or 1, so make
it a boolean: it would never make sense to be trying to write out two
messages at the same time (they'd get interleaved).
Similarly, we can never be writing and flushing at the same time (that'd
mean we were flushing halfway through a message, which would be pointless)
so combine it with flush_pending too, calling the result output_pending.
Also assert that it takes the expected value whenever we change it,
and document the locking discipline used for it, including a subtle
case in write_message_in_idle_cb where it's not obvious at first glance
why we don't need the lock.
(Having the combined boolean at the top of the block of write-related
struct members improves struct packing on 64-bit platforms, by packing
read_num_ancillary_messages and output_pending into one word.)

Add an extra state pointer and an extra GDestroyNotify function
to the 'Chunk' definition... allowing bindings to attach some extra
state to memory chunks (to get memory management correctly from
language bindings).

The GApplication test case tried to fork() while using GMainLoop,
causing problems. Avoid doing that by splitting the child process into
a separate program and spawning it in the usual way.

The 'key' variable is no longer valid outside the cycle, owned and
probably already freed by GVariant. This causes apps to segfault
when proxy is constructed and a property on remote d-bus service
changes (actually is invalidated). Looks like a typo anyway.

Historically we've added random symbols to the public API with warnings
that they're private; examples are:
glib_gettext(), glib_pgettext()
g_thread_functions_for_glib_use, g_thread_use_default_impl, etc.
And we almost added "GWakeup" to public API just to share between glib and
gio.
This new glib__private__() API exports a hidden vtable, and adds a macro
GLIB_PRIVATE_CALL() that makes it generally convenient to use.
This adds an extremely tiny cost for the double indirection; but it has
the benefit that we don't need to either:
1) compile the code into both glib and gio (like GWakeup), with the
inefficiency that implies.
2) Export a "do not use this" symbol; the serious problem with this is
that someone CAN use it pretty easily. Particularly if we document
it. It's far, far harder to peek into a structure without a public
header file.

g_thread_gettime() is an undocumented public function pointer that
points to a function that returns the monotonic time in nanoseconds.
g_get_monotonic_time() does the same in microseconds, so it can be used
instead.
GLib had one internal user in GFileMonitor that only cared about
millisecond accuracy; it has been ported to g_get_monotonic_time().
In particular, remove the libasyncns import, which was only used by
GUnixResolver, which is only used when threads are not available.
Likewise remove GWin32Resolver, and the hacky broken non-threaded
parts of GIOScheduler.

G_THREADS_ENABLED still exists, but is always defined. It is still
possible to use libglib without threads, but gobject (and everything
above it) is now guaranteed to be using threads (as, in fact, it was
before, since it was accidentally impossible to compile with
--disable-threads).
