+/**
+ * g_utf8_make_valid:
+ * @str: string to coerce into UTF-8
+ * @len: the maximum length of @str to use, in bytes. If @len < 0,
+ * then the string is nul-terminated.
+ *
+ * If the provided string is valid UTF-8, return a copy of it. If not,
+ * return a copy in which bytes that could not be interpreted as valid Unicode
+ * are replaced with the Unicode replacement character (U+FFFD).
+ *
+ * For example, this is an appropriate function to use if you have received
+ * a string that was incorrectly declared to be UTF-8, and you need a valid
+ * UTF-8 version of it that can be logged or displayed to the user, with the
+ * assumption that it is close enough to ASCII or UTF-8 to be mostly
+ * readable as-is.
+ *
+ * Returns: (transfer full): a valid UTF-8 string whose content resembles @str
+ *
+ * Since: 2.52
