Philip Withnall 7cd67c935f gspawn: Add sysprof trace support for spawning
Use this to replace the much-hated `g_debug()` which told people that
`posix_spawn()` (the fast path) wasn’t being used for various reasons.

If people want to make their process spawning faster now, they’ll have
to use a profiling tool like sysprof to check their program’s
performance. Shocking.

I think I was wrong to put this `g_debug()` in there in the first place
— it hasn’t served its purpose of making people speed up their spawn
paths to use `posix_spawn()`, it’s only cluttered up logs and frustrated
people.

* SECTION:spawn
* @Short_description: process launching
* @Title: Spawning Processes
*
* GLib supports spawning of processes with an API that is more
* convenient than the bare UNIX fork() and exec().
*
* The g_spawn family of functions has synchronous (g_spawn_sync())
* and asynchronous variants (g_spawn_async(), g_spawn_async_with_pipes()),
* as well as convenience variants that take a complete shell-like
* commandline (g_spawn_command_line_sync(), g_spawn_command_line_async()).
*
* See #GSubprocess in GIO for a higher-level API that provides
* stream interfaces for communication with child processes.
*
* An example of using g_spawn_async_with_pipes():
* |[<!-- language="C" -->
* const gchar * const argv[] = { "my-favourite-program", "--args", NULL };
* gint child_stdout, child_stderr;
* GPid child_pid;
* g_autoptr(GError) error = NULL;
*
* // Spawn child process.
* g_spawn_async_with_pipes (NULL, argv, NULL, G_SPAWN_DO_NOT_REAP_CHILD, NULL,
* NULL, &child_pid, NULL, &child_stdout,
* &child_stderr, &error);
* if (error != NULL)
* {
* g_error ("Spawning child failed: %s", error->message);
* return;
* }
*
* // Add a child watch function which will be called when the child process
* // exits.
* g_child_watch_add (child_pid, child_watch_cb, NULL);
*
* // You could watch for output on @child_stdout and @child_stderr using
* // #GUnixInputStream or #GIOChannel here.
*
* static void
* child_watch_cb (GPid pid,
* gint status,
* gpointer user_data)
* {
* g_message ("Child %" G_PID_FORMAT " exited %s", pid,
* g_spawn_check_exit_status (status, NULL) ? "normally" : "abnormally");
*
* // Free any resources associated with the child here, such as I/O channels
* // on its stdout and stderr FDs. If you have no code to put in the
* // child_watch_cb() callback, you can remove it and the g_child_watch_add()
* // call, but you must also remove the G_SPAWN_DO_NOT_REAP_CHILD flag,
* // otherwise the child process will stay around as a zombie until this
* // process exits.
*
* g_spawn_close_pid (pid);
* }

*
* Executes a child program asynchronously (your program will not
* block waiting for the child to exit). The child program is
* specified by the only argument that must be provided, @argv.
* @argv should be a %NULL-terminated array of strings, to be passed
* as the argument vector for the child. The first string in @argv
* is of course the name of the program to execute. By default, the
* name of the program must be a full path. If @flags contains the
* %G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH flag, the `PATH` environment variable is
* used to search for the executable. If @flags contains the
* %G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH_FROM_ENVP flag, the `PATH` variable from
* @envp is used to search for the executable. If both the
* %G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH and %G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH_FROM_ENVP flags
* are set, the `PATH` variable from @envp takes precedence over
* the environment variable.
*
* If the program name is not a full path and %G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH flag is not
* used, then the program will be run from the current directory (or
* @working_directory, if specified); this might be unexpected or even
* dangerous in some cases when the current directory is world-writable.
*
* On Windows, note that all the string or string vector arguments to
* this function and the other g_spawn*() functions are in UTF-8, the
* GLib file name encoding. Unicode characters that are not part of
* the system codepage passed in these arguments will be correctly
* available in the spawned program only if it uses wide character API
* to retrieve its command line. For C programs built with Microsoft's
* tools it is enough to make the program have a wmain() instead of
* main(). wmain() has a wide character argument vector as parameter.
*
* At least currently, mingw doesn't support wmain(), so if you use
* mingw to develop the spawned program, it should call
* g_win32_get_command_line() to get arguments in UTF-8.
*
* On Windows the low-level child process creation API CreateProcess()
* doesn't use argument vectors, but a command line. The C runtime
* library's spawn*() family of functions (which g_spawn_async_with_pipes()
* eventually calls) paste the argument vector elements together into
* a command line, and the C runtime startup code does a corresponding
* reconstruction of an argument vector from the command line, to be
* passed to main(). Complications arise when you have argument vector
* elements that contain spaces or double quotes. The `spawn*()` functions
* don't do any quoting or escaping, but on the other hand the startup
* code does do unquoting and unescaping in order to enable receiving
* arguments with embedded spaces or double quotes. To work around this
* asymmetry, g_spawn_async_with_pipes() will do quoting and escaping on
* argument vector elements that need it before calling the C runtime
* spawn() function.
*
* The returned @child_pid on Windows is a handle to the child
* process, not its identifier. Process handles and process
* identifiers are different concepts on Windows.
*
* @envp is a %NULL-terminated array of strings, where each string
* has the form `KEY=VALUE`. This will become the child's environment.
* If @envp is %NULL, the child inherits its parent's environment.
*
* @flags should be the bitwise OR of any flags you want to affect the
* function's behaviour. The %G_SPAWN_DO_NOT_REAP_CHILD means that the
* child will not automatically be reaped; you must use a child watch
* (g_child_watch_add()) to be notified about the death of the child process,
* otherwise it will stay around as a zombie process until this process exits.
* Eventually you must call g_spawn_close_pid() on the @child_pid, in order to
* free resources which may be associated with the child process. (On Unix,
* using a child watch is equivalent to calling waitpid() or handling
* the %SIGCHLD signal manually. On Windows, calling g_spawn_close_pid()
* is equivalent to calling CloseHandle() on the process handle returned
* in @child_pid). See g_child_watch_add().
*
* Open UNIX file descriptors marked as `FD_CLOEXEC` will be automatically
* closed in the child process. %G_SPAWN_LEAVE_DESCRIPTORS_OPEN means that
* other open file descriptors will be inherited by the child; otherwise all
* descriptors except stdin/stdout/stderr will be closed before calling exec()
* in the child. %G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH means that @argv[0] need not be an
* absolute path, it will be looked for in the `PATH` environment
* variable. %G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH_FROM_ENVP means need not be an
* absolute path, it will be looked for in the `PATH` variable from
* @envp. If both %G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH and %G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH_FROM_ENVP
* are used, the value from @envp takes precedence over the environment.
* %G_SPAWN_STDOUT_TO_DEV_NULL means that the child's standard output
* will be discarded, instead of going to the same location as the parent's
* standard output. If you use this flag, @standard_output must be %NULL.
* %G_SPAWN_STDERR_TO_DEV_NULL means that the child's standard error
* will be discarded, instead of going to the same location as the parent's
* standard error. If you use this flag, @standard_error must be %NULL.
* %G_SPAWN_CHILD_INHERITS_STDIN means that the child will inherit the parent's
* standard input (by default, the child's standard input is attached to
* `/dev/null`). If you use this flag, @standard_input must be %NULL.
* %G_SPAWN_FILE_AND_ARGV_ZERO means that the first element of @argv is
* the file to execute, while the remaining elements are the actual
* argument vector to pass to the file. Normally g_spawn_async_with_pipes()
* uses @argv[0] as the file to execute, and passes all of @argv to the child.
*
* @child_setup and @user_data are a function and user data. On POSIX
* platforms, the function is called in the child after GLib has
* performed all the setup it plans to perform (including creating
* pipes, closing file descriptors, etc.) but before calling exec().
* That is, @child_setup is called just before calling exec() in the
* child. Obviously actions taken in this function will only affect
* the child, not the parent.
*
* On Windows, there is no separate fork() and exec() functionality.
* Child processes are created and run with a single API call,
* CreateProcess(). There is no sensible thing @child_setup
* could be used for on Windows so it is ignored and not called.
*
* If non-%NULL, @child_pid will on Unix be filled with the child's
* process ID. You can use the process ID to send signals to the child,
* or to use g_child_watch_add() (or waitpid()) if you specified the
* %G_SPAWN_DO_NOT_REAP_CHILD flag. On Windows, @child_pid will be
* filled with a handle to the child process only if you specified the
* %G_SPAWN_DO_NOT_REAP_CHILD flag. You can then access the child
* process using the Win32 API, for example wait for its termination
* with the WaitFor*() functions, or examine its exit code with
* GetExitCodeProcess(). You should close the handle with CloseHandle()
* or g_spawn_close_pid() when you no longer need it.
*
* If non-%NULL, the @standard_input, @standard_output, @standard_error
* locations will be filled with file descriptors for writing to the child's
* standard input or reading from its standard output or standard error.
* The caller of g_spawn_async_with_pipes() must close these file descriptors
* when they are no longer in use. If these parameters are %NULL, the
* corresponding pipe won't be created.
*
* If @standard_input is %NULL, the child's standard input is attached to
* `/dev/null` unless %G_SPAWN_CHILD_INHERITS_STDIN is set.
*
* If @standard_error is NULL, the child's standard error goes to the same
* location as the parent's standard error unless %G_SPAWN_STDERR_TO_DEV_NULL
* is set.
*
* If @standard_output is NULL, the child's standard output goes to the same
* location as the parent's standard output unless %G_SPAWN_STDOUT_TO_DEV_NULL
* is set.
*
* @error can be %NULL to ignore errors, or non-%NULL to report errors.
* If an error is set, the function returns %FALSE. Errors are reported
* even if they occur in the child (for example if the executable in
* @argv[0] is not found). Typically the `message` field of returned
* errors should be displayed to users. Possible errors are those from
* the #G_SPAWN_ERROR domain.
*
* If an error occurs, @child_pid, @standard_input, @standard_output,
* and @standard_error will not be filled with valid values.
*
* If @child_pid is not %NULL and an error does not occur then the returned
* process reference must be closed using g_spawn_close_pid().
*
* On modern UNIX platforms, GLib can use an efficient process launching
* codepath driven internally by posix_spawn(). This has the advantage of
* avoiding the fork-time performance costs of cloning the parent process
* address space, and avoiding associated memory overcommit checks that are
* not relevant in the context of immediately executing a distinct process.
* This optimized codepath will be used provided that the following conditions
* are met:
*
* 1. %G_SPAWN_DO_NOT_REAP_CHILD is set
* 2. %G_SPAWN_LEAVE_DESCRIPTORS_OPEN is set
* 3. %G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH_FROM_ENVP is not set
* 4. @working_directory is %NULL
* 5. @child_setup is %NULL
* 6. The program is of a recognised binary format, or has a shebang. Otherwise, GLib will have to execute the program through the shell, which is not done using the optimized codepath.
*
* If you are writing a GTK+ application, and the program you are spawning is a
* graphical application too, then to ensure that the spawned program opens its
* windows on the right screen, you may want to use #GdkAppLaunchContext,
* #GAppLaunchContext, or set the %DISPLAY environment variable.
*
* Returns: %TRUE on success, %FALSE if an error was set

* g_spawn_check_exit_status:
* @exit_status: An exit code as returned from g_spawn_sync()
* @error: a #GError
*
* Set @error if @exit_status indicates the child exited abnormally
* (e.g. with a nonzero exit code, or via a fatal signal).
*
* The g_spawn_sync() and g_child_watch_add() family of APIs return an
* exit status for subprocesses encoded in a platform-specific way.
* On Unix, this is guaranteed to be in the same format waitpid() returns,
* and on Windows it is guaranteed to be the result of GetExitCodeProcess().
*
* Prior to the introduction of this function in GLib 2.34, interpreting
* @exit_status required use of platform-specific APIs, which is problematic
* for software using GLib as a cross-platform layer.
*
* Additionally, many programs simply want to determine whether or not
* the child exited successfully, and either propagate a #GError or
* print a message to standard error. In that common case, this function
* can be used. Note that the error message in @error will contain
* human-readable information about the exit status.
*
* The @domain and @code of @error have special semantics in the case
* where the process has an "exit code", as opposed to being killed by
* a signal. On Unix, this happens if WIFEXITED() would be true of
* @exit_status. On Windows, it is always the case.
*
* The special semantics are that the actual exit code will be the
* code set in @error, and the domain will be %G_SPAWN_EXIT_ERROR.
* This allows you to differentiate between different exit codes.
*
* If the process was terminated by some means other than an exit
* status, the domain will be %G_SPAWN_ERROR, and the code will be
* %G_SPAWN_ERROR_FAILED.
*
* This function just offers convenience; you can of course also check
* the available platform via a macro such as %G_OS_UNIX, and use
* WIFEXITED() and WEXITSTATUS() on @exit_status directly. Do not attempt
* to scan or parse the error message string; it may be translated and/or
* change in future versions of GLib.
*
* Returns: %TRUE if child exited successfully, %FALSE otherwise (and
* @error will be set)

* Since: 2.34

* is provided for this purpose. It should be used on all platforms, even
* though it doesn't do anything under UNIX.
