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.
The previously implementation considered a file to be a mountpoint if
its parent is on a different device. / is its own parent, so by this
definition it is not a mountpoint.
But / is (generally) listed in fstab, and fstab(5) defines the
directories it contains to be mountpoints. This attribute should follow
that definition (and reasonable expectation): the root directory is a
mountpoint.
So, add a special-case for the case where the file's parent has the same
st_dev and st_ino as the file, which is true only at the root.
Test this attribute at / (only on POSIX), /proc (but only on Linux), and
at many files and directories created by the test suite (which cannot be
mountpoints).
Sometimes file monitor events may be slow to emit. Using g_idle_add
makes it less possible for events to be scheduled later than the main
loop quit, preventing test failure caused by missing events.
This fixes test failure on FreeBSD.
The check in _ke_is_excluded, which causes GKqueueFileMonitor to
fallback to GPollFileMonitor when it returns TRUE, was made to prevent
file monitor from blocking unmount of removable drives on systems not
supporting O_EVTONLY flag in open. However, since g_mount_can_unmount
always returns TRUE on Unix-like platforms, the check always returns
TRUE on non-standard mount points, which is very likely to cause all
programs on the desktop to use the polling fallback if GNOME is
installed in a different prefix for development. This makes the desktop
sluggish and results in bad developer experience on *BSD.
Kqueue isn't good at detecting rapid file creation and deletion. It
tends to miss events because events returned by the kernel don't include
filename information. Since the size of struct kevent is fixed, it is
probably not possible to extend the API to include file names without
breaking ABI. Therefore, we disables the test here to avoid test failure
that is impossible to fix in a reliable way.
The test 'file' uses non-standard '--bytes' option when running du,
which may cause error on non-GNU systems. To keep the test working,
we skips the du check as if we don't find a du command when du fails.
-export-dynamic is a libtool flag. It is also supported by GCC as an
undocumented flag, but it is not supported by Clang. Since we don't use
libtool in meson, we should use -Wl,--export-dynamic instead.
The Visual Studio 2005 projects have not been updated nor dist'ed in a
while, plus we are directing people using Visual Studio to build using
Meson, so it's time to remove them from the source tree.
In master, it is already possible to build GLib using Visual Studio
using Meson[1] for some time, so we should focus on maintaining only the
Meson build files for building GLib with Visual Studio.
[1]: There are caveats when building with Visual Studio 2008, namely
that one needs to use the mt command to embed the manifests that
are generated with the .exe/DLLs, for all builds, and that in the
case where the compilation hangs on Visual Studio 2008 x64, as a
workaround, should stop the build by terminating all cl.exe tasks
and change the compiler optimization flag from /O2 (full speed) to
/O1 (optimize for size), due to compiler optimization issues.
We have no way to test Solaris builds atm, and it is not even clear how
to detect Solaris systems with meson. It will probably need to be
revisited when we get a proper CI in place.
Change G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ACCESS_CAN_TRASH logic to be consistent
with recent g_local_file_trash changes, i.e. set this to FALSE for
locations on system-internal mounts.

New bugs appears periodically in nautilus/gvfs/glib components that not
all trashed files are shown in trash:///. It used to be problem mostly
for "bind mounts" and btrfs subvolumes only. Currently, it is also
problem for nfs, cifs and other filesystems, which have been recently
added by commmit 0d69462f on the list of system internal filesystems.
This happens because the trash backend doesn't monitor files on system
internal mounts. Such behavior is not against the trash-spec, however,
we should be consistent within GNOME.
This behavior has the nice side-effect that it solves issues with hangs
on network filesystems: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/issues/605,
because those are currently on the system internal filesystem list.

When over-allocating by inserting values off the end of an array, maybe
expand the array once, rather than twice (once for setting the size and
once for appending the values).
Suggestion by Peter Bloomfield (@peterb) as a follow-up to #1374.

Previously, there was very little coverage of GArray behaviour with
either of the zero_terminated or clear_ arguments to g_array_new() set
to TRUE.
Parameterise the tests and exhaustively expand the coverage to cover all
possible GArray configurations.
This was made possible by the online code coverage report for GLib which
we now have:
https://gnome.pages.gitlab.gnome.org/glib/coverage/glib/garray.c.gcov.html.
