  62 * QIOChannel:
  63 *
  64 * The QIOChannel defines the core API for a generic I/O channel
  65 * class hierarchy. It is inspired by GIOChannel, but has the
  66 * following differences
  67 *
  68 *  - Use QOM to properly support arbitrary subclassing
  69 *  - Support use of iovecs for efficient I/O with multiple blocks
  70 *  - None of the character set translation, binary data exclusively
  71 *  - Direct support for QEMU Error object reporting
  72 *  - File descriptor passing
  73 *
  74 * This base class is abstract so cannot be instantiated. There
  75 * will be subclasses for dealing with sockets, files, and higher
  76 * level protocols such as TLS, WebSocket, etc.

 477 * Create a new main loop source that is used to watch
 478 * for the I/O condition @condition. The callback @func
 479 * will be registered against the source, to be invoked
 480 * when the source becomes ready. The optional @user_data
 481 * will be passed to @func when it is invoked. The @notify
 482 * callback will be used to free @user_data when the
 483 * watch is deleted
 484 *
 485 * The returned source ID can be used with g_source_remove()
 486 * to remove and free the source when no longer required.
 487 * Alternatively the @func callback can return a FALSE
 488 * value.
 489 *
 490 * Returns: the source ID
