 *
 * Similar to the UNIX pipe() call, but on modern systems like Linux
 * uses the pipe2() system call, which atomically creates a pipe with
 * the configured flags.
 *
 * As of GLib 2.78, the supported flags are `O_CLOEXEC`/`FD_CLOEXEC` (see below)
 * and `O_NONBLOCK`. Prior to GLib 2.78, only `FD_CLOEXEC` was supported — if
 * you wanted to configure `O_NONBLOCK` then that had to be done separately with
 * `fcntl()`.
 *
 * It is a programmer error to call this function with unsupported flags, and a
 * critical warning will be raised.
 *
 * As of GLib 2.78, it is preferred to pass `O_CLOEXEC` in, rather than
 * `FD_CLOEXEC`, as that matches the underlying `pipe()` API more closely. Prior
 * to 2.78, only `FD_CLOEXEC` was supported. Support for `FD_CLOEXEC` may be
 * deprecated and removed in future.
 *
 * Returns: %TRUE on success, %FALSE if not (and errno will be set).

 * Note that unlike the UNIX default, all sources which have created a

 * For example, an effective use of this function is to handle `SIGTERM`
 * cleanly; flushing any outstanding files, and then calling
 * g_main_loop_quit().  It is not safe to do any of this from a regular
 * UNIX signal handler; such a handler may be invoked while malloc() or
 * another library function is running, causing reentrancy issues if the
 * handler attempts to use those functions.  None of the GLib/GObject
 * API is safe against this kind of reentrancy.
 *
 * The interaction of this source when combined with native UNIX
 * functions like sigprocmask() is not defined.

 * and must be added to one with g_source_attach() before it will be
