      util: use glib string allocation/formatting functions · bb9a1a14
      Daniel P. Berrangé 提交于
      Convert the string duplication APIs to use the g_strdup family of APIs.
      
      We previously used the 'strdup-posix' gnulib module because mingw does
      not set errno to ENOMEM on failure
      
      We previously used the 'strndup' gnulib module because this function
      does not exist on mingw.
      
      We previously used the 'vasprintf' gnulib module because of many GNU
      supported format specifiers not working on non-Linux platforms. glib's
      own equivalent standardizes on GNU format specifiers too.

      util: use glib memory allocation functions · e85e34f3
      Daniel P. Berrangé 提交于
      Convert the VIR_ALLOC family of APIs with use of the g_malloc family of
      APIs. Use of VIR_ALLOC related functions should be incrementally phased
      out over time, allowing return value checks to be dropped. Use of
      VIR_FREE should be replaced with auto-cleanup whenever possible.
      
      We previously used the 'calloc-posix' gnulib module because mingw does
      not set errno to ENOMEM on failure.

      build: link to glib library · cfbe9f12
      Daniel P. Berrangé 提交于
      Add the main glib.h to internal.h so that all common code can use it.
      
      Historically glib allowed applications to register an alternative
      memory allocator, so mixing g_malloc/g_free with malloc/free was not
      safe.
      
      This was feature was dropped in 2.46.0 with:

              Deprecate and drop support for memory vtables
      
      Applications are still encourged to match g_malloc/g_free, but it is no
      longer a mandatory requirement for correctness, just stylistic. This is
      explicitly clarified in
      
          commit 1f24b36607bf708f037396014b2cdbc08d67b275

              gmem: clarify that g_malloc always uses the system allocator
      
      Applications can still use custom allocators in general, but they must
      do this by linking to a library that replaces the core malloc/free
      implemenentation entirely, instead of via a glib specific call.
      
      This means that libvirt does not need to be concerned about use of
      g_malloc/g_free causing an ABI change in the public libary, and can
      avoid memory copying when talking to external libraries.
      
      This patch probes for glib, which provides the foundation layer with
      a collection of data structures, helper APIs, and platform portability
      logic.
      
      Later patches will introduce linkage to gobject which provides the
      object type system, built on glib, and gio which providing objects
      for various interesting tasks, most notably including DBus client
      and server support and portable sockets APIs, but much more too.

      build: probe for glib-2 library in configure · 58e7c9bc
      Daniel P. Berrangé 提交于
      Prepare for linking with glib by probing for it at configure
      time. Per supported platforms target, the min glib versions on
      relevant distros are:
      
        RHEL-8: 2.56.1
        RHEL-7: 2.50.3
        Debian (Buster): 2.58.3
        Debian (Stretch): 2.50.3
        OpenBSD (Ports): 2.58.3
        FreeBSD (Ports): 2.56.3
        OpenSUSE Leap 15: 2.54.3
        SLE12-SP2: 2.48.2
        Ubuntu (Xenial): 2.48.0
        macOS (Homebrew): 2.56.0
      
      This suggests that a minimum glib of 2.48 is a reasonable target.
      This aligns with the minimum version required by qemu too.
      
      We must disable the bad-function-cast warning as various GLib APIs
      and macros will trigger this.
