Eio does need to allocate memory from the thread, transmit it to the
main loop where it is processed and later on freed. If the main loop
is to slow to handle the stream of incoming data, a huge peak of
memory can happen. Some people may want to limit the amount of memory
used at peak time and so this new infrastructure make that possible.
@feature
Fix race condition when touching/changing a (theme) file often.
An Eio_Monitor was marked as "delete_me" but the rename callback
was still called, leading to memory access to already freed
objects.
Test protocol was:
ELM_THEME=~/default.edj elementary_test &
watch touch ~/default.edj
this MIGHT fix T45 but i can't reproduce to confirm, but reading a
backtrace indicates this could have been the issue. it looks like
there is room for a dangling pointer anyway, so fix.
stable release - cherry-pick me!
Being annoyed by different types of eina critical macros - CRI, CRIT,
CRITICAL -, I concluded to unify them to one. Discussed on IRC and
finally, CRI was chosen to meet the consistency with other macros -
ERR, WRN, INF, DBG - in terms of the number of characters.
If there is any missing bits, please let me know.
- fchmod() was isolated by HAVE_CHMOD, which was always present
before... then fchmod() is also present as no errors were reported
since its introduction.
- fchmod() is POSIX for a while now.
- lstat() is POSIX for a while now.
- setxattr is supported by EFL_CHECK_FUNCS() as is used by eina.
- splice() check added to EFL_CHECK_FUNCS()

some functions were being checked but their IFDEF not being handled,
others (getpwnam and getgrnam) were isolated in a code that is now
Windows, then no need to check them as well as these are POSIX.

Another try to make inotify checks more common.
This time uses AC_CHECK_HEADERS() as for others, that already define
HAVE_SYS_INOTIFY_H, then uses that.
I still kept AM_CONDITIONAL([HAVE_INOTIFY]) because I plan to convert
ecore_file to the same, smarter, method that is used in eio (compiling
the file depending on the backend.
