 * SECTION:gvariant
 * @title: GVariant
 * @short_description: strongly typed value datatype
 * @see_also: GVariantType
 *
 * #GVariant is a variant datatype; it can contain one or more values
 * along with information about the type of the values.
 *
 * A #GVariant may contain simple types, like an integer, or a boolean value;
 * or complex types, like an array of two strings, or a dictionary of key
 * value pairs. A #GVariant is also immutable: once it's been created neither
 * its type nor its content can be modified further.
 *
 * GVariant is useful whenever data needs to be serialized, for example when
 * sending method parameters in D-Bus, or when saving settings using GSettings.
 *
 * When creating a new #GVariant, you pass the data you want to store in it
 * along with a string representing the type of data you wish to pass to it.
 *
 * For instance, if you want to create a #GVariant holding an integer value you
 * can use:
 *
 * |[<!-- language="C" -->
 *   GVariant *v = g_variant_new ("u", 40);
 * ]|
 *
 * The string "u" in the first argument tells #GVariant that the data passed to
 * the constructor (40) is going to be an unsigned integer.
 *
 * More advanced examples of #GVariant in use can be found in documentation for
 * [GVariant format strings][gvariant-format-strings-pointers].
 *
 * The range of possible values is determined by the type.
 *
 * The type system used by #GVariant is #GVariantType. 
 *
 * #GVariant instances always have a type and a value (which are given
 * at construction time).  The type and value of a #GVariant instance
 * can never change other than by the #GVariant itself being
 * destroyed.  A #GVariant cannot contain a pointer.
 *
 * #GVariant is reference counted using g_variant_ref() and
 * g_variant_unref().  #GVariant also has floating reference counts --
 * see g_variant_ref_sink().
 *
 * #GVariant is completely threadsafe.  A #GVariant instance can be
 * concurrently accessed in any way from any number of threads without
 * problems.
 *
 * #GVariant is heavily optimised for dealing with data in serialized
 * form.  It works particularly well with data located in memory-mapped
 * files.  It can perform nearly all deserialization operations in a
 * small constant time, usually touching only a single memory page.
 * Serialized #GVariant data can also be sent over the network.
 *
 * #GVariant is largely compatible with D-Bus.  Almost all types of
 * #GVariant instances can be sent over D-Bus.  See #GVariantType for
 * exceptions.  (However, #GVariant's serialization format is not the same
 * as the serialization format of a D-Bus message body: use #GDBusMessage,
 * in the gio library, for those.)
 *
 * For space-efficiency, the #GVariant serialization format does not
 * automatically include the variant's length, type or endianness,
 * which must either be implied from context (such as knowledge that a
 * particular file format always contains a little-endian
 * %G_VARIANT_TYPE_VARIANT which occupies the whole length of the file)
 * or supplied out-of-band (for instance, a length, type and/or endianness
 * indicator could be placed at the beginning of a file, network message
 * or network stream).
 *
 * A #GVariant's size is limited mainly by any lower level operating
 * system constraints, such as the number of bits in #gsize.  For
 * example, it is reasonable to have a 2GB file mapped into memory
 * with #GMappedFile, and call g_variant_new_from_data() on it.
 *
 * For convenience to C programmers, #GVariant features powerful
 * varargs-based value construction and destruction.  This feature is
 * designed to be embedded in other libraries.
 *
 * There is a Python-inspired text language for describing #GVariant
 * values.  #GVariant includes a printer for this language and a parser
 * with type inferencing.
 *
 * ## Memory Use
 *
 * #GVariant tries to be quite efficient with respect to memory use.
 * This section gives a rough idea of how much memory is used by the
 * current implementation.  The information here is subject to change
 * in the future.
 *
 * The memory allocated by #GVariant can be grouped into 4 broad
 * purposes: memory for serialized data, memory for the type
 * information cache, buffer management memory and memory for the
 * #GVariant structure itself.
 *
 * ## Serialized Data Memory
 *
 * This is the memory that is used for storing GVariant data in
 * serialized form.  This is what would be sent over the network or
 * what would end up on disk, not counting any indicator of the
 * endianness, or of the length or type of the top-level variant.
 *
 * The amount of memory required to store a boolean is 1 byte. 16,
 * 32 and 64 bit integers and double precision floating point numbers
 * use their "natural" size.  Strings (including object path and
 * signature strings) are stored with a nul terminator, and as such
 * use the length of the string plus 1 byte.
 *
 * Maybe types use no space at all to represent the null value and
 * use the same amount of space (sometimes plus one byte) as the
 * equivalent non-maybe-typed value to represent the non-null case.
 *
 * Arrays use the amount of space required to store each of their
 * members, concatenated.  Additionally, if the items stored in an
 * array are not of a fixed-size (ie: strings, other arrays, etc)
 * then an additional framing offset is stored for each item.  The
 * size of this offset is either 1, 2 or 4 bytes depending on the
 * overall size of the container.  Additionally, extra padding bytes
 * are added as required for alignment of child values.
 *
 * Tuples (including dictionary entries) use the amount of space
 * required to store each of their members, concatenated, plus one
 * framing offset (as per arrays) for each non-fixed-sized item in
 * the tuple, except for the last one.  Additionally, extra padding
 * bytes are added as required for alignment of child values.
 *
 * Variants use the same amount of space as the item inside of the
 * variant, plus 1 byte, plus the length of the type string for the
 * item inside the variant.
 *
 * As an example, consider a dictionary mapping strings to variants.
 * In the case that the dictionary is empty, 0 bytes are required for
 * the serialization.
 *
 * If we add an item "width" that maps to the int32 value of 500 then
 * we will use 4 byte to store the int32 (so 6 for the variant
 * containing it) and 6 bytes for the string.  The variant must be
 * aligned to 8 after the 6 bytes of the string, so that's 2 extra
 * bytes.  6 (string) + 2 (padding) + 6 (variant) is 14 bytes used
 * for the dictionary entry.  An additional 1 byte is added to the
 * array as a framing offset making a total of 15 bytes.
 *
 * If we add another entry, "title" that maps to a nullable string
 * that happens to have a value of null, then we use 0 bytes for the
 * null value (and 3 bytes for the variant to contain it along with
 * its type string) plus 6 bytes for the string.  Again, we need 2
 * padding bytes.  That makes a total of 6 + 2 + 3 = 11 bytes.
 *
 * We now require extra padding between the two items in the array.
 * After the 14 bytes of the first item, that's 2 bytes required.
 * We now require 2 framing offsets for an extra two
 * bytes. 14 + 2 + 11 + 2 = 29 bytes to encode the entire two-item
 * dictionary.
 *
 * ## Type Information Cache
 *
 * For each GVariant type that currently exists in the program a type
 * information structure is kept in the type information cache.  The
 * type information structure is required for rapid deserialization.
 *
 * Continuing with the above example, if a #GVariant exists with the
 * type "a{sv}" then a type information struct will exist for
 * "a{sv}", "{sv}", "s", and "v".  Multiple uses of the same type
 * will share the same type information.  Additionally, all
 * single-digit types are stored in read-only static memory and do
 * not contribute to the writable memory footprint of a program using
 * #GVariant.
 *
 * Aside from the type information structures stored in read-only
 * memory, there are two forms of type information.  One is used for
 * container types where there is a single element type: arrays and
 * maybe types.  The other is used for container types where there
 * are multiple element types: tuples and dictionary entries.
 *
 * Array type info structures are 6 * sizeof (void *), plus the
 * memory required to store the type string itself.  This means that
 * on 32-bit systems, the cache entry for "a{sv}" would require 30
 * bytes of memory (plus malloc overhead).
 *
 * Tuple type info structures are 6 * sizeof (void *), plus 4 *
 * sizeof (void *) for each item in the tuple, plus the memory
 * required to store the type string itself.  A 2-item tuple, for
 * example, would have a type information structure that consumed
 * writable memory in the size of 14 * sizeof (void *) (plus type
 * string)  This means that on 32-bit systems, the cache entry for
 * "{sv}" would require 61 bytes of memory (plus malloc overhead).
 *
 * This means that in total, for our "a{sv}" example, 91 bytes of
 * type information would be allocated.
 * 
 * The type information cache, additionally, uses a #GHashTable to
 * store and look up the cached items and stores a pointer to this
 * hash table in static storage.  The hash table is freed when there
 * are zero items in the type cache.
 *
 * Although these sizes may seem large it is important to remember
 * that a program will probably only have a very small number of
 * different types of values in it and that only one type information
 * structure is required for many different values of the same type.
 *
 * ## Buffer Management Memory
 *
 * #GVariant uses an internal buffer management structure to deal
 * with the various different possible sources of serialized data
 * that it uses.  The buffer is responsible for ensuring that the
 * correct call is made when the data is no longer in use by
 * #GVariant.  This may involve a g_free() or a g_slice_free() or
 * even g_mapped_file_unref().
 *
 * One buffer management structure is used for each chunk of
 * serialized data.  The size of the buffer management structure
 * is 4 * (void *).  On 32-bit systems, that's 16 bytes.
 *
 * ## GVariant structure
 *
 * The size of a #GVariant structure is 6 * (void *).  On 32-bit
 * systems, that's 24 bytes.
 *
 * #GVariant structures only exist if they are explicitly created
 * with API calls.  For example, if a #GVariant is constructed out of
 * serialized data for the example given above (with the dictionary)
 * then although there are 9 individual values that comprise the
 * entire dictionary (two keys, two values, two variants containing
 * the values, two dictionary entries, plus the dictionary itself),
 * only 1 #GVariant instance exists -- the one referring to the
 * dictionary.
 *
 * If calls are made to start accessing the other values then
 * #GVariant instances will exist for those values only for as long
 * as they are in use (ie: until you call g_variant_unref()).  The
 * type information is shared.  The serialized data and the buffer
 * management structure for that serialized data is shared by the
 * child.
 *
 * ## Summary
 *
 * To put the entire example together, for our dictionary mapping
 * strings to variants (with two entries, as given above), we are
 * using 91 bytes of memory for type information, 29 bytes of memory
 * for the serialized data, 16 bytes for buffer management and 24
 * bytes for the #GVariant instance, or a total of 160 bytes, plus
 * malloc overhead.  If we were to use g_variant_get_child_value() to
 * access the two dictionary entries, we would use an additional 48
 * bytes.  If we were to have other dictionaries of the same type, we
 * would use more memory for the serialized data and buffer
 * management for those dictionaries, but the type information would
 * be shared.

 * Maybe, array, tuple, dictionary entry and variant-typed values may be
 * constructed.
 *
 * After the builder is initialised, values are added using

 * After all the child values are added, g_variant_builder_end() frees
 * the memory associated with the builder and returns the #GVariant that

 * first call g_variant_builder_clear() in order to avoid leaking
 * memory.

/* GVariantDict {{{1 */

/**
 * GVariantDict:
 *
 * #GVariantDict is a mutable interface to #GVariant dictionaries.
 *
 * It can be used for doing a sequence of dictionary lookups in an
 * efficient way on an existing #GVariant dictionary or it can be used
 * to construct new dictionaries with a hashtable-like interface.  It
 * can also be used for taking existing dictionaries and modifying them
 * in order to create new ones.
 *
 * #GVariantDict can only be used with %G_VARIANT_TYPE_VARDICT
 * dictionaries.
 *
 * It is possible to use #GVariantDict allocated on the stack or on the
 * heap.  When using a stack-allocated #GVariantDict, you begin with a
 * call to g_variant_dict_init() and free the resources with a call to
 * g_variant_dict_clear().
 *
 * Heap-allocated #GVariantDict follows normal refcounting rules: you
 * allocate it with g_variant_dict_new() and use g_variant_dict_ref()
 * and g_variant_dict_unref().
 *
 * g_variant_dict_end() is used to convert the #GVariantDict back into a
 * dictionary-type #GVariant.  When used with stack-allocated instances,
 * this also implicitly frees all associated memory, but for
 * heap-allocated instances, you must still call g_variant_dict_unref()
 * afterwards.
 *
 * You will typically want to use a heap-allocated #GVariantDict when
 * you expose it as part of an API.  For most other uses, the
 * stack-allocated form will be more convenient.
 *
 * Consider the following two examples that do the same thing in each
 * style: take an existing dictionary and look up the "count" uint32
 * key, adding 1 to it if it is found, or returning an error if the
 * key is not found.  Each returns the new dictionary as a floating
 * #GVariant.

/* Variable Arguments {{{1 */
/* We consider 2 main classes of format strings:
 *
 *   - recursive format strings
 *      these are ones that result in recursion and the collection of
 *      possibly more than one argument.  Maybe types, tuples,
 *      dictionary entries.
 *
 *   - leaf format string
 *      these result in the collection of a single argument.
 *
 * Leaf format strings are further subdivided into two categories:
 *
 *   - single non-null pointer ("nnp")
 *      these either collect or return a single non-null pointer.
 *
 *   - other
 *      these collect or return something else (bool, number, etc).
 *
 * Based on the above, the varargs handling code is split into 4 main parts:
 *
 *   - nnp handling code
 *   - leaf handling code (which may invoke nnp code)
 *   - generic handling code (may be recursive, may invoke leaf code)
 *   - user-facing API (which invokes the generic code)
 *
 * Each section implements some of the following functions:
 *
 *   - skip:
 *      collect the arguments for the format string as if
 *      g_variant_new() had been called, but do nothing with them.  used
 *      for skipping over arguments when constructing a Nothing maybe
 *      type.
 *
 *   - new:
 *      create a GVariant *
 *
 *   - get:
 *      unpack a GVariant *
 *
 *   - free (nnp only):
 *      free a previously allocated item

 *
 * For most cases you should use g_variant_iter_next().
 *
 * This function is really only useful when unpacking into #GVariant or
 * #GVariantIter in order to allow you to skip the call to
 * g_variant_unref() or g_variant_iter_free().
 *
 * For example, if you are only looping over simple integer and string
 * types, g_variant_iter_next() is definitely preferred.  For string
 * types, use the '&' prefix to avoid allocating any memory at all (and
 * thereby avoiding the need to free anything as well).

 * g_variant_get_normal_form:

 *
 * Gets a #GVariant instance that has the same value as @value and is
 * trusted to be in normal form.
 *
 * If @value is already trusted to be in normal form then a new
 * reference to @value is returned.
 *
 * If @value is not already trusted, then it is scanned to check if it
 * is in normal form.  If it is found to be in normal form then it is
 * marked as trusted and a new reference to it is returned.
 *
 * If @value is found not to be in normal form then a new trusted
 * #GVariant is created with the same value as @value. The non-normal parts of
 * @value will be replaced with default values which are guaranteed to be in
 * normal form.
 *
 * It makes sense to call this function if you've received #GVariant
 * data from untrusted sources and you want to ensure your serialized
 * output is definitely in normal form.
 *
 * If @value is already in normal form, a new reference will be returned
 * (which will be floating if @value is floating). If it is not in normal form,
 * the newly created #GVariant will be returned with a single non-floating
 * reference. Typically, g_variant_take_ref() should be called on the return
 * value from this function to guarantee ownership of a single non-floating
 * reference to it.
