Igor Novoseltsev reported a problem with the multi socket API and
using timeouts and timers. It boiled down to a problem with
libcurl's use of GetTickCount() interally to figure out the
current time, while Igor's own application code used another
function call.
It made his app call the socket API timeout function a bit
_before_ libcurl would consider the timeout to trigger, and that
could easily lead to timeouts or stalls in the app. It seems
GetTickCount() in general often has no better resolution than
16ms and switching to the alternative function
QueryPerformanceCounter has its share of problems:

We address this problem by simply having libcurl treat timers
that already has occured or will occur within 40ms subject for
treatment. I'm confident that there are other implementations and
operating systems with similarly in accurate timer functions so
it makes sense to have applied generically and I don't believe we
sacrifice much by adding a 40ms inaccuracy on these timeouts.

makes the LDAP code much cleaner, nicer and in general being a
better libcurl citizen. If a new enough OpenLDAP version is
detect, the new and shiny lib/openldap.c code is then used
instead of the old cruft

In a normal expression, doing [unsigned short] + 1 will not wrap
at 16 bits so the comparisons and outputs were done wrong. I
added a macro do make sure it gets done right.
Douglas Kilpatrick filed bug report #3004787 about it:

Eric Mertens posted bug report #3003005 pointing out that the
libcurl TFTP code was not sending the timeout option properly to
the server, and suggested a fix.

John-Mark Bell filed bug #3000052 that identified a problem (with
an associated patch) with the OpenSSL handshake state machine
when the multi interface is used:
Performing an https request using a curl multi handle and using
select or epoll to wait for events results in a hang. It appears
that the cause is the fix for bug #2958179, which makes
ossl_connect_common unconditionally return from the step 2 loop
when fetching from a multi handle.
When ossl_connect_step2 has completed, it updates
connssl->connecting_state to ssl_connect_3. ossl_connect_common
will then return to the caller, as a multi handle is in
use. Eventually, the client code will call curl_multi_fdset to
obtain an updated fdset to select or epoll on. For https
requests, curl_multi_fdset will cause https_getsock to be called.
https_getsock will only return a socket handle if the
connecting_state is ssl_connect_2_reading or
ssl_connect_2_writing. Therefore, the client will never obtain a
valid fdset, and thus not drive the multi handle, resulting in a
hang.

Sebastian V reported bug #3000056 identifying a problem with
redirect following. It showed that when curl followed redirects
it didn't properly ignore the response body of the 30X response
if that response was using compressed Content-Encoding!

Dirk Manske reported a regression. When connecting with the multi
interface, there were situations where libcurl wouldn't store
connect time correctly as it used to (and is documented to) do.
Using his fine sample program we could repeat it, and I wrote up
test case 573 using that code. The problem does not easily show
itself using the local test suite though.
The fix, also as suggested by Dirk, is a bit on the ugly side as
it adds yet another call to Curl_verboseconnect() and setting the
TIMER_CONNECT time. That situation is subject for some closer
inspection in the future.

The -O option caused curl to crash on windows and DOS due to the
tool writing out of boundary memory.

Prefixing the FTP quote commands with an asterisk really only
worked for the postquote actions. This is now fixed and test case
227 has been extended to verify.

Matt Wixson found and fixed a bug in the SCP/SFTP area where the
code treated a 0 return code from libssh2 to be the same as
EAGAIN while in reality it isn't. The problem caused a hang in
SFTP transfers from a MessageWay server.

Ben Greear brought a patch that from now on allows all protocols
to specify name and user within the URL, in the same manner HTTP
and FTP have been allowed to in the past - although far from all
of the libcurl supported protocols actually have that feature in
their URL definition spec.

Bob Richmond: There's an annoying situation where libcurl will
read new HTTP response data from a socket, then check if it's a
timeout if one is set. If the last packet received constitutes
the end of the response body, libcurl still treats it as a
timeout condition and reports a message like:
"Operation timed out after 3000 milliseconds with 876 out of 876
bytes received"
It should only a timeout if the timer lapsed and we DIDN'T
receive the end of the response body yet.

Christopher Conroy fixed a problem with RTSP and GET_PARAMETER
reported to us by Massimo Callegari. There's a new test case 572
that verifies this now.

Kenny To filed the bug report #2963679 with patch to fix a
problem he experienced with doing multi interface HTTP POST over
a proxy using PROXYTUNNEL. He found a case where it would connect
fine but bits.tcpconnect was not set correct so libcurl didn't
work properly.

Akos Pasztory filed debian bug report #572276
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=572276
mentioning a problem with a resource that returns chunked-encoded
_and_ with a Content-Length and libcurl failed to properly ignore
the latter information.

Hauke Duden provided an example program that made the multi
interface crash. His example simply used the multi interface and
did first one FTP transfer and after completion it used a second
easy handle and did another FTP transfer on the same FTP server.
This triggered a bug in the "delayed easy handle kill" system
that curl uses: when an FTP connection is left alive it must keep
an easy handle around internally - only for the purpose of having
an easy handle when it later disconnects it. The code assumed
that when the easy handle was removed and an internal reference
was made, that version could be killed later on when a new easy
handle came using the same connection. This was wrong as Hauke's
example showed that the removed handle wasn't killed for real
until later. This caused a double close attempt => segfault.

which could have caused a double free when reusing curl handle.

The problem mentioned on Dec 10 2009
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2905220) was only partially fixed.
Partially because an easy handle can be associated with many connections in
the cache (e.g. if there is a redirect during the lifetime of the easy
handle). The previous patch only cleaned up the first one. The new fix now
removes the easy handle from all connections, not just the first one.

with threaded resolver enabled (Windows default configuration) that would

ran into some issues with the GSSAPI tests in configure.ac. The tests first
try to determine the include dirs and libs and set CPPFLAGS and LIBS
accordingly. It then checks for the headers and finally sets LIBS a second
time, causing the libs to be included twice. The first setting of LIBS seems
redundant and should be left out, since the first part is otherwise just
about finding headers.
My second issue is that 'krb5-config --libs gssapi' on Darwin is less than
useless and returns junk that, while it happens to work with gcc, causes
clang to choke. For example, --libs returns $CFLAGS along with the libs,
which is really retarded. Simply setting 'LIBS="$LIBS -lgssapi_krb5
-lresolv"' on Darwin is sufficient.

makes sure that when using sub-second timeouts, there's no final bad 1000ms
wait. Previously, a sub-second timeout would often make the elapsed time end
up the time rounded up to the nearest second (e.g. 1s for 200ms timeout)

the global timeout if set. Also, as was reported in the bug report #2956437
by Ryan Chan, the time stamp to use as basis for the per command timeout was
not set properly in the DONE phase for FTP (and not for SMTP) so I fixed
that just now. This was a regression compared to 7.19.7 due to the
conversion of FTP code over to the generic pingpong concepts.
