Instead of using $DBUS_USE_TEST_BINARY to control whether to use the
hard-coded test binary TEST_BUS_LAUNCH_BINARY, we can just use
$DBUS_TEST_DBUS_LAUNCH to control what we launch directly, as we
were already doing for $DBUS_TEST_DAEMON.

dbus-daemon is not expected to open files with large *sizes*, but without
large file support, calling [f]stat() on a file that happens to have a
large inode number will fail with EOVERFLOW (see stat(2)). For example,
files mounted from an NFS server might have large inode numbers.

DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1 is dependent on unguessable strings, i.e.
indirectly dependent on high-quality pseudo-random numbers
whereas EXTERNAL authentication (credentials-passing)
is mediated by the kernel and cannot be faked.
On Windows, EXTERNAL authentication is not available,
so we continue to use the hard-coded default (all
authentication mechanisms are tried).
Users of tcp: or nonce-tcp: on Unix will have to comment
this out, but they would have had to use a special
configuration anyway (to set the listening address),
and the tcp: and nonce-tcp: transports are inherently
insecure unless special steps are taken to have them
restricted to a VPN or SSH tunnelling.
Users of obscure Unix platforms (those that trigger
the warning "Socket credentials not supported on this Unix OS"
when compiling dbus-sysdeps-unix.c) might also have to
comment this out, or preferably provide a tested patch
to enable credentials-passing on that OS.

Since Automake 1.13 (released December 2012) the correct way for a
maintainer to specify environment variables has been
AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT, with TESTS_ENVIRONMENT reserved for the user.
That doesn't work in older Automake, so drop support for such old

If OS builders (distributions) have chosen to use the per-user bus,
this provides two possible modes of operation for compatibility with
existing X session startup hooks.
A legacy-free system can just upload DISPLAY, XAUTHORITY and possibly
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS into dbus-daemon's and systemd's activation
environments, similar to
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd/tree/xorg/50-systemd-user.sh
installed by systemd (but unlike systemctl,
dbus-update-activation-environment works for traditional
D-Bus-activated services, not just for systemd services).
A system where compatibility is required for environment variables
exported by snippets in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d (in Red Hat derivatives,
Gentoo, etc.) or /etc/X11/Xsession.d (Debian derivatives) can upload
the entire environment of the X session, minus some selected environment
variables which are specific to a login session (notably XDG_SESSION_ID).
In Debian, I plan to put the former in a new dbus-user-session package
that enables a user-session-centric mode of operation for D-Bus,
and the latter in the existing dbus-x11 package, with the intention that
dbus-x11 eventually becomes a tool for change-averse setups or goes
away entirely.

The socket path used here, $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/bus, does not match
what was used in user-session-units, but is what Lennart recommended
on fd.o #61303, and is also what kdbus will use for its bus proxy.
Installation of these units switches D-Bus to a different model of
the system: instead of considering each login session (approximately,
each password typed in) to be its own session, the user-session model
is that all concurrent logins by the same user form one large session.
This allows the same bus to be shared by a graphical session, cron jobs,
tty/ssh sessions, screen/tmux sessions and so on.
Because this is a different world-view, it is compile-time optional:
OS builders can choose which world their OS will live in. The default
is still the login-session model used in earlier D-Bus releases,
but might change to the user-session model in future. Explicit
configuration is recommended.
In OSs that support both models (either for sysadmin flexibility or as
a transitional measure), the OS builder should enable the user bus
units, but split them off into a dpkg binary package, RPM subpackage etc.;
the sysadmin can choose whether to enable the user-session model by
choosing whether to install that package.

This changes the Linux behaviour to match the default situation
on Windows: symbols without DBUS_EXPORT or DBUS_PRIVATE_EXPORT
decoration are internal to libdbus-1, and cannot be used by
other programs, even within the dbus source tree.
This means the compiler/linker can optimize calls to those functions
by avoiding indirection through the PLT, which should improve
performance a little. However, the primary purpose of doing this is
that it means developers building libdbus on Linux are considerably
less likely to break it on Windows by mistake.
I'm deliberately not adding -fvisbility=hidden in CMake because the
complexity of doing so is unnecessary: Autotools is the recommended
way to build dbus for Unix, and the one Unix developers are going
to use in practice, unless they are specifically checking that they
haven't broken the CMake build.
