"make tags" is the best way to produce tags in an automake project and
yet very few people are using it so the tags files it generates are never
added to the .gitignore files.
Add TAGS files to .gitignore then.

The documentation for maybe types failed to mention 'a' as one of the
types that was handled with a single pointer for which NULL means
"nothing". Correct that omission.
Problem caught by Shaun McCance.
Document the previously uncovered case of calling g_spawn_async_with_pipes()
without a full path but no G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH. This runs programs from the
current directory, which might be unexpected and even dangerous in some corner
cases.

My previous fix for GNOME#662100 was incomplete: it seems that with some
timings, the stream can be closed with an async read in-flight. This
can make the read fail immediately with G_IO_ERROR_CLOSED instead of
becoming cancelled.
This happens reliably on an embedded device, and rarely on my laptop;
repeating the test 100 times in quick succession reliably reproduces
the bug on my laptop.
It seems as though what we really want is to ignore read errors, once
we've established that we want to close the connection anyway - this
means that after asking to close, you're immune to exit-on-close,
which seems like a good rule.
An additional subtlety is that continuing to read after we know we
want to close is still required, otherwise we'll never emit ::closed.

If the GDBusObjectManagerClient doesn't get a name owner during its lifetime,
`on_control_proxy_g_signal' will never be connected to any signal, so we
shouldn't dump any warning in that case.

As part of the deserialisation process of a zero-length array in the
DBus wire format, parse_value_from_blob() recursively calls itself with
the expectation of failing (as can be seen by the assert immediately
following).
It passes &local_error to this always-failing call and then fails to
free it (indeed, to use it at all). The result is that the GError is
leaked.
Fix it by passing in NULL instead, so that the GError is never created
in the first place.

Also document which fields require such a check in order to have correct
threading semantics.
This usage doesn't matches the GInitable documentation, which suggests
use of a GError - but using an uninitialized GDBusConnection is
programming error, and not usefully recoverable. (The GInitable
documentation may have been a mistake - GNOME#662208.) Also, not all of
the places where we need it can raise a GError.
The check serves a dual purpose: it turns a non-deterministic crash into
a deterministic critical warning, and is also a memory barrier for
thread-safety. All of these functions dereference or return fields that
are meant to be protected by FLAG_INITIALIZED, so they could crash or
return an undefined value to their caller without this, if called from a
thread that isn't the one that called initable_init() (although I can't
think of any way to do that without encountering a memory barrier,
undefined behaviour, or a race condition that leads to undefined
behaviour if the non-initializing thread wins the race).
One exception is that initable_init() itself makes a synchronous call.
We deal with that by passing new internal flags up the call stack, to
reassure g_dbus_connection_send_message_unlocked() that it can go ahead.

The comment implied that even failed initialization would set
is_initialized = TRUE, but this wasn't the case - failed initialization
would only set initialization_error, and it was necessary to check both.
It turns out the documented semantics are nicer than the implemented
semantics, since this lets us use atomic operations, which are also
memory barriers, to avoid needing separate memory barriers or locks
for initialization_error (and other members that are read-only after
construction).
I expect to need more than one atomically-accessed flag to fix thread
safety, so instead of a minimal implementation I've turned is_initialized
into a flags word.

We didn't previously test anything except the implicit default of TRUE.
Now we test implicit TRUE, explicit TRUE, explicit FALSE, and
disconnecting at the local end (which regressed while fixing Bug #651268).
Also avoid some questionable use of a main context, which fell foul of
Bug #658999 and caused this test to be disabled in master.

This was a regression caused by my previous work on GDBusWorker thread-safety
(Bug #651268). The symptom is that if you disconnect a GDBusConnection
locally, the default implementation of GDBusConnection::closed
terminates your process, even though it shouldn't do that for
locally-closed connections; this is because GDBusWorker didn't think a
cancelled read was a local close.

(cherry picked from commit 5e0492da509aad12b93b732c449dae1a016367c1)
GDBusConnection sets the closed flag in the worker thread, then adds an
idle callback (which refs the Connection) to signal this in the main
thread. The tests session_bus_down doesn't spin the mainloop, so the
"closed" signal will always fire if iterating the mainloop later (and
drops the ref when doing so). But _is_closed can return TRUE even before
signalling this, in which case the "closed" signal isn't fired and the
ref isn't dropped, causing the test to fail.
Instead simply always wait for the closed signal, which is a good thing
to check anyway and ensures the ref is closed.

GVDB deals with empty lists by returning NULL for the list instead of a

If the connection to the bus is lost while a method call is ongoing,
the method call does not get cancelled. Instead it just sits around
until it times out.
This is visible here on XO laptops when stopping the display manager
during shutdown. imsettings starts sending a sync message to give up
its bus name (via g_bus_unown_name()), then systemd terminates the
session bus at approximately the same time. imsettings then hangs for
about 20 seconds before timing out the message.
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dbus/2011-September/014717.html
imsettings behaviour could be improved as described in that thread,
but I think this is a glib bug. I've also come up with the attached
patch which fixes it.

Since it is valid for a D-Bus interface / service to add new methods,
signals or properties we must NEVER warn about unknown properties or
drop unknown signals or disallow unknown method invocations when we
have an expected interface.
So this means that the expected_interface machinery is only useful for
checking that the service didn't break ABI.
Also update the docs so it is clear exactly what it means to have an
expected interface.
