Hello, As far as i knew, the GDBusProxy object
initialization flow have two mainly actions: (1). Listen for properties change signal to update property cache in GDBusProxy. (2). Called the GetAll metod call to get the default value of an object properties. And
I've encountered a race condition with GDBusProxy object initialization. if the signal of properties_change occurred while the GDBusProxy was already in a GetAll reply
handler flow, the properties_change signal will be immediately discarded. This causes the GDBusProxy object has not yet initialized when the callback function on_properties_changed() called. The ascii figure below shows the possible execution of this isseus: (Y axis is a time axis) [GDBus Worker thread] {Default GLib main context} [Main thread] | | | +-------------------------+ push the idle GSource | | | | <async_init_get_all_cb()> | pop the idle GSource | | receiving GetAll method | to the mainloop | <async_init_get_all_cb()> | | reply message +--------------------------->> | from the mainloop +------------------------------------+ | | +--------------------------->> | | +-------------------------+ | | running <async_init_get_all_cb()> | | | | callback function, and adding the | +-------------------------+ push the idle GSource | | idle GSource user-defined | | | <on_properties_changed()> | push the idle GSource | GDBusProxy ready callback function | | ((unexpected signal!)) | to the mainloop | <on_proxy_ready()> | to the mainloop (such as | | receiving the signal of +--------------------------->> | to the mainloop | <on_proxy_ready()> ...) | | properties change | | <<---------------------------+ | | | | +------------------------------------+ +-------------------------+ | | | | | | | +------------------------------------+ | | pop the idle GSource | | | | <on_properties_changed()> | running <on_properties_changed()> | | | from the mainloop | callback function, but the | | +--------------------------->> | GDBusProxy object has not yet been | | | | initialized, so the signal will be | | | | DISCARDED! | | | +------------------------------------+ | | | | | +------------------------------------+ | | pop the idle GSource | | | | <on_proxy_ready()> | running <on_proxy_ready()> | | | from the mainloop | callback function, and call the | | +--------------------------->> | function => | | | | <async_initable_init_finish()> | | | | to set GDBusProxy object | | | | initialization compiled, but some | | | | cache results of properties was | | | | incorrect! | | | | | | | +------------------------------------+ | | | | | | ... ... ... I think an easy way to fix this problem is to raising idle GSources priority in whole GetAll reply handler flow, to makesure the on_properties_changed()
have been executed after async_init_get_all_cb() and on_proxy_ready(). However this occurs rarely, and in any case the signal of properties changed should not be discarded. There is proposed patch corrects this. 1. add new API <g_simple_async_result_complete_in_idle_full()> in order to raising idle GSources priority. 2. Change idle GSources priority to HIGH in whole GetAll reply handler flow, to avoid the properties_change signal will be discarded when it's fallowing
