Your tests show that io stream prevents concurrent read / write, and that
self->source is going to be destroyed after the current tasks return.
However, if gpollable create_source is called seperately, it may create
"zombie" sources, they will never be dispatched. It is easy to show the
issue with a test like:
for (i = 0; i < 10000; i++) {
GSource *s = g_pollable_input_stream_create_source(f->ip1, NULL);
g_source_set_callback (s, NULL, NULL, NULL);
g_source_attach (s, NULL);
g_source_unref(s);
}
g_main_loop_run (f->loop);
After the source is attached, the context will keep a reference, but when
creating a new source, it is not removed from the context. giopipe could
also call g_source_destroy() before the unref, but I don't think this is a
good practice: destroyed source callbacks would never be called, and it may
be hard to understand why.
I suppose the best would be to mimic poll() behaviour, and "dispatch" with
set_ready_time(0) all the created sources (that are still active).
