It turns out that the current approach of parsing g_log_structured
varargs is unworkable, because vprintf is not guaranteed to advance
the passed-in va_list. So, we have to reshuffle the argument list
a bit; I've come up with this approach:
g_log_structured (domain, level,
key-value pairs...
"MESSAGE", format,
printf arguments);
This requires a "MESSAGE" key to always be present, and it requires
the "MESSAGE"-format pair to be last, but it avoids an extra NULL
as marker after the key-value pairs. And it can be parsed with a
single pass over the va_list, without any va_copy.
Since we have G_LOG_USE_STRUCTURED, the separate ...structured()
convenience macros are pretty pointless, and I have dropped them
for now.
Look for a macro G_LOG_USE_STRUCTURED, and if it is defined, use
g_log_structured instead of g_log when defining g_warning and friends.
This avoids the extra complication of going through g_logv _and_
g_log_structured to get a message logged; it also lets us pass
the code-related fields.
We don't do this unconditionally (yet), since some users might
rely on the more fine-grained fatality support in g_logv. It has
also been proven problematic in the past to inject a dependency
on bleeding-edge API via a widely-used macro.

GCC fails to build because of the trailing arguments, not part of the

The documentation for `__attribute__((format(...)))` in GCC
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Common-Function-Attributes.html#Common-Function-Attributes
States that the second index must be 0 for functions that are not
available to be checked, like for vprintf-style functions. In this case
it's also appropriate because of the trailing arguments.
The sd-journal API in systemd, upon which the structured logging API is
modelled, also uses 0 as the second argument for the format attribute.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=744456
It turns out that g_info_structured (format, ...) makes
g_info_structured ("Hey!") not work, since it requires at
least one argument after the format string. So shorten
the argument list to just ...
Replace the underlying write_string() call which is the ultimate result
of calling g_log() with a call to g_log_structured(). This means that
all g_log() calls will pass through the structured log handling code
path, as long as they are not already modified or dropped by the g_log()
code (fatal masks, aborts, etc.).
In the case that the default structured log writer is in use, this will
result in the same format of log output to stdout or stderr, as
previously happened. If a non-default writer is in use, it handles the
message as it sees fit.

In a vague attempt at ensuring the .stp scripts can be closely
associated with the .so files which they hard-code references to, rename
the scripts so they include the LT version — so that they are the .so
file name plus .stp.
This does not fix the fact that our .stp scripts will not work on
multiarch systems, as they are installed in an architecture-independent
directory (/usr/share/systemtap/tapset). At the moment, it is
recommended that any distribution who package the .stp files should
install them in the architecture-specific subdirectories of this (for
example, /usr/share/systemtap/tapset/x86-64).
A better long-term solution for this is under discussion upstream:

The ability to pass libtool via $(CC) to dtrace and have it respect this
appears to be a feature that is only present in the systemtap version of
the tool. In particular, FreeBSD (which seems to be using a copy of the
tool from Solaris) doesn't support this.
The result is that, with $(CC) ignored, and a .lo file specified in -o,
we get an ELF written to the .lo.
Instead of trying to have dtrace run libtool we can have libtool run
dtrace. dtrace is really just a compiler that produces an object file
here, and it even understands -o, so libtool can make the appropriate
adjustments.
There appears to be some prior art for this approach. A quick search
shows that at least QEMU is using this approach. It also appears to
work on Linux with systemtap's dtrace and on FreeBSD.
This may regress cross-compilation because the dtrace command will have
no way of knowing which compiler we intend for it to use to produce the
object file. I say "may" because I don't know if dtrace ever worked in
the first place under cross-compilation.

Visual Studio 2008 does not come with stdint.h, so define intmax_t instead
on Visual Studio 2008 so that the code will continue to build. This was
previously unnoticed as building GTK+ since 3.16 requires an

need of including the stdint.h header here, but people could be very well
using GLib without using GTK+ 3.x.
glib installs a gdb helper file named `glib.py`.
Then the "hook" file updates `sys.path` and does `import glib`.
This will fail if glib has already been imported into gdb, say
using `from gi.repository import GLib`. This is due to a namespace clash.
One fix would be to rename the gdb helper files to not clash with
other Python modules. This should be done for all such helper files.

Fallback code for g_date_time_format_locale() fetches translated
strings (such as day and month names) from .mo catalogues via
gettext. These strings always come in UTF-8 encoding, because
that is the encoding that glib sets when it initializes gettext
for itself.
However, the non-fallback code uses nl_langinfo() and expects
its results to be in locale-dependent encoding.
This mismatch can result in UTF-8 strings being converted to UTF-8,
producing gibberish.
Fix this by converting UTF-8 strings to locale-dependent encoding
before using them. Also fix the code that was already doing the locale->UTF-8
conversion to not convert the strings when they are already UTF-8-encoded.

This works by using semi-documented[1] exception to tell the debugger

If this exception is not caught and handled by something, it will crash
the process, so we need to set up our own handler in case there's no
debugger attached or the debugger can't handle this type of exception.
Since SEH is not supported by gcc on i686 (at the moment), we need to use VEH
instead. For completeness the MSVC-oriented code still uses SEH, although
there is no reason why it shouldn't work with the VEH variant used by MinGW.
VEH handler has to be set up somewhere (g_thread_win32_init () works nicely)
and removed once it's not needed (g_thread_win32_process_detach () is added
expressly for that purpose). Note that g_thread_win32_process_detach() is
only called when glib is unloaded by FreeLibrary(), not when glib-using
process is terminating.

If the XDG_RUNTIME_DIR environment variable is set, we are being told by
the OS that this directory exists and is appropriately configured
already. In the fallback case of ~/.cache/, however, the directory may
not yet exist.
Rework the logic of this function a little so that we only check for the
environment variable once. If it is not set, we will fall back to the
cache directory, and mkdir() it to make sure that it exists.
Meanwhile, remove a statement from the reference documentation that
promises a warning in this case (which has never been true) and replace
it with a statement that applications can rely on the directory
existing.

The scanning to find the end of a positional parameter designator in
GVariant text format (e.g. '%i') is currently broken in case the 'end'
pointer is not specified.
The scan is controlled by a somewhat complicated loop that needs to deal
properly with cases like (123, %(ii)) [where '%(ii)' is to be taken
together, but the final ')' not].
This loop missed the case where a format string passed to
g_variant_new_parsed() ended immediately after such a conversion, with a
nul character. In this case the 'end' pointer is NULL, so the only way
we can find the end is by scanning for nul in the string.
In case of g_variant_new_parsed() [which is what this code was designed
to be used for], the bug is somewhat unlikely in practice: the only way
that a valid text-form GVariant could ever contain a positional
parameter replacement at the end of the string is if this positional
parameter were the only thing being returned. In that case, the user
would likely have opted for a more direct approach.
Unfortunately, this code is also active in the tokenisation phase of
g_variant_parse(), before positional parameters are rejected as invalid
for that case. Anyone who calls this function with a nul-terminated
string (and no end pointer) is vulnerable to a crash from malicious user
input. This can be seen, at the very least with many commandline tools:
$ dconf write /x '%i'
Segmentation fault
We fix this problem by searching for the nul character in this case, in
addition to comparing the end pointer.
This problem is almost certainly limited to being able to cause crashes.
The loop in question only performs reads and, in the security-sensitive
case, the token will be quickly rejected after the loop is finished
(since it starts with '%' and the 'app' pointer is unset). This is
further mitigated by the fact that there are no known cases of GVariant
text format being used as part of a protocol at a privilege barrier.
The start_position arguments are passed to pcre_exec() as the
startoffset, which is in bytes (not characters).
I had recently a doubt about this, so it's better to document it.

To be honest, i don't remember what problems were caused by it returning the

According to the C spec, any undefined identifier used in a #if

Commit db2367e878 introduced an #i

gcc has a -Wundef option which warns about depending on this behaviour,
and unfortunately there are projects that are using -Werror=undef in
builds that include our headers.
Adding a check for defined(__STDC_VERSION__) before using the macro is
enough to silence gcc.
It's been a long time since we've been unconditionally saying "static
inline" in GLib headers without complaints so it's safe to assume that
all compilers that we care about support this.
One thing that is not yet totally supported is the unadorned use of the
word "inline". Depending on the flags (-std=c89, for example), even GCC
will complain about this. Detect missing C99 support and define
"inline" to "__inline" in that case. Some research shows "__inline"
appears to be the most widely-supported keyword here, but we may need to
tweak this if we get some reports of breakage.
Clean up all of the configure checks around this and define G_CAN_INLINE
unconditionally. Unfortunately, we must assume that some people are
still using G_IMPLEMENT_INLINES, we must continue to implement that
(including undefining G_CAN_INLINE and redefining G_INLINE_FUNC) if
requested.
It is not our intent to break existing users of the old-style
