40  * @short_description: portable cross-thread event signal mechanism
41  *
42  * #GWakeup is a simple and portable way of signaling events between
43  * different threads in a way that integrates nicely with g_poll().
44  * GLib uses it internally for cross-thread signalling in the
45  * implementation of #GMainContext and #GCancellable.
46  *
47  * You first create a #GWakeup with g_wakeup_new() and initialise a
48  * #GPollFD from it using g_wakeup_get_pollfd().  Polling on the created
49  * #GPollFD will block until g_wakeup_signal() is called, at which point
50  * it will immediately return.  Future attempts to poll will continue to
51  * return until g_wakeup_acknowledge() is called.  g_wakeup_free() is
52  * used to free a #GWakeup.
53  *
54  * On sufficiently modern Linux, this is implemented using eventfd.  On
55  * Windows it is implemented using an event handle.  On other systems it
56  * is implemented with a pair of pipes.
57  *
58  * Since: 2.30
