Subject: [PATCH] src: workaround warning triggered in glib 2.69
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Libvirt is using the G_GNUC_FALLTHROUGH macro provided by glib since
version 2.60. Since we need to support older glib, we also have some
compatibility code to define it if missing.

We set the GLIB_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED macro to ensure we get warnings
when we use an API that dates from a glib version newer than our
minimum benchmark. Historically this didn't get enforced for (most)
macros, but GLib 2.69 has addressed that gap.

This causes our usage of G_GNUC_FALLTHROUGH to trigger warnings.
GLib is right to warn, because it does not know that we have added
our own fallback for older versions.

The only way to squelch this warning though, is to fully undefine
the GLib provided G_GNUC_FALLTHROUGH and use our own in its place.
We'll be able to remove all this compat burden when we finally
update the min glib version to be >= 2.60
