2019-12-26CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION.3: Document that size is always 1Jay Satiro
For compatibility with `fwrite`, the `CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION` callback is passed two `size_t` parameters which, when multiplied, designate the number of bytes of data passed in. In practice, CURL always sets the first parameter (`size`) to 1. This practice is also enshrined in documentation and cannot be changed in future. The documentation states that the default callback is `fwrite`, which means `fwrite` must be a suitable function for this purpose. However, the documentation also states that the callback must return the number of *bytes* it successfully handled, whereas ISO C `fwrite` returns the number of items (each of size `size`) which it wrote. The only way these numbers can be equal is if `size` is 1. Since `size` is 1 and can never be changed in future anyway, document that fact explicitly and let users rely on it.

2019-12-18CURLOPT_QUOTE.3: fix typosJay Satiro

2019-11-26XFERINFOFUNCTION: support CURL_PROGRESSFUNC_CONTINUEJohn Schroeder
(also for PROGRESSFUNCTION) By returning this value from the callback, the internal progress function call is still called afterward. Closes #4599

Closes #4547
2019-10-16CURLOPT_TIMEOUT.3: Clarify transfer timeout time includes queue timeJay Satiro
Prior to this change some users did not understand that the "request" starts when the handle is added to the multi handle, or probably they did not understand that some of those transfers may be queued and that time is included in timeout. Reported-by: Jeroen Ooms Fixes https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/4486 Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/4489
2019-10-07CURLOPT_TIMEOUT.3: remove the mention of "minutes"Daniel Stenberg
... just say that limiting operations risk aborting otherwise fine working transfers. If that means seconds, minutes or hours, we leave to the user. Reported-by: Martin Gartner Closes #4469

Suggested-by: Brandon Dong Fixes #4250 Closes #4269
2019-08-20CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST: treat the value 1 as 2Daniel Stenberg
For a long time (since 7.28.1) we've returned error when setting the value to 1 to make applications notice that we stopped supported the old behavior for 1. Starting now, we treat 1 and 2 exactly the same. Closes #4241
2019-08-14CURLOPT_ALTSVC.3: use a "" file name to not load from a fileDaniel Stenberg
2019-08-13CURLOPT_ALTSVC_CTRL.3: remove CURLALTSVC_ALTUSEDDaniel Stenberg

2019-08-12CURLOPT_READFUNCTION.3: provide inline exampleDaniel Stenberg

2019-08-09CURLOPT_H3: removedDaniel Stenberg
There's no use for this anymore and it was never in a release. Closes #4206
2019-08-08CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION: seting this to 3 forces HTTP/3 use directlyDaniel Stenberg
Even though it cannot fall-back to a lower HTTP version automatically. The safer way to upgrade remains via CURLOPT_ALTSVC. CURLOPT_H3 no longer has any bits that do anything and might be removed before we remove the experimental label. Updated the curl tool accordingly to use "--http3". Closes #4197
2019-08-07CURLINFO_RETRY_AFTER: parse the Retry-After header valueDaniel Stenberg
This is only the libcurl part that provides the information. There's no user of the parsed value. This change includes three new tests for the parser. Ref: #3794
2019-08-06sasl: Implement SASL authorisation identity via CURLOPT_SASL_AUTHZIDSteve Holme
Added the ability for the calling program to specify the authorisation identity (authzid), the identity to act as, in addition to the authentication identity (authcid) and password when using SASL PLAIN authentication. Fixes #3653 Closes #3790 NOTE: This commit was cherry-picked and is part of a series of commits that added the authzid feature for upcoming 7.66.0. The series was temporarily reverted in db8ec1f so that it would not ship in a 7.65.x patch release. Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/4186
2019-08-06http09: disable HTTP/0.9 by default in both tool and libraryDaniel Stenberg
As the plan has been laid out in DEPRECATED. Update docs accordingly and verify in test 1174. Now requires the option to be set to allow HTTP/0.9 responses. Closes #4191
2019-07-29HTTP: use chunked Transfer-Encoding for HTTP_POST if size unknownBalazs Kovacsics
If using the read callback for HTTP_POST, and POSTFIELDSIZE is not set, automatically add a Transfer-Encoding: chunked header, same as it is already done for HTTP_PUT, HTTP_POST_FORM and HTTP_POST_MIME. Update test 1514 according to the new behaviour. Closes #4138
2019-07-21HTTP3: initial (experimental) supportDaniel Stenberg
USe configure --with-ngtcp2 or --with-quiche Using either option will enable a HTTP3 build. Co-authored-by: Alessandro Ghedini <alessandro@ghedini.me> Closes #3500
2019-07-17CURLOPT_RANGE.3: Caution against using it for HTTP PUTJay Satiro
AFAICT CURLOPT_RANGE does not support ranged HTTP PUT uploads so I've cautioned against using it for that purpose and included a workaround. Bug: https://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2019-04/0075.html Reported-by: Christopher Head Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/3814
2019-07-17CURLOPT_SEEKDATA.3: fix variable nameStefano Simonelli
Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/4118
2019-07-17docs: Explain behavior change in --tlsv1. options since 7.54Jay Satiro
Since 7.54 --tlsv1. options use the specified version or later, however older versions of curl documented it as using just the specified version which may or may not have happened depending on the TLS library. Document this discrepancy to allay confusion for users familiar with the old documentation that expect just the specified version. Fixes https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/4097 Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/4119
2019-07-17libcurl: Restrict redirect schemes (follow-up)Jay Satiro

... and adjust those that cause errors Closes #4116
2019-07-06CURLOPT_HEADEROPT.3: Fix exampleCaleb Raitto
Fix an issue where example builds a curl_slist, but fails to actually use it, or free it. Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/4090
2019-06-25docs: fix string suggesting HTTP/2 is not the defaultNiklas Hambüchen
Commit 25fd1057c9c86e3 made HTTP2 the default, and further down in the man page that new default is mentioned, but the section at the top contradicted it until now. Also remove claim that setting the HTTP version is not sensible. Closes #4075
2019-06-24CURLMOPT_SOCKETFUNCTION.3: fix typoDaniel Gustafsson
2019-06-10CURLMOPT_SOCKETFUNCTION.3: clarifiedDaniel Stenberg
Moved away the callback explanation from curl_multi_socket_action.3 and expanded it somewhat. Closes #4006
2019-06-10CURLOPT_CAINFO.3: polished wordingDaniel Stenberg
Clarify the functionality when built to use Schannel and Secure Transport and stop calling it the "recommended" or "preferred" way and instead rather call it the default. Removed the reference to the ssl comparison table as it isn't necessary. Reported-by: Richard Alcock Bug: https://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2019-06/0019.html Closes #4005
2019-06-10wolfssl: refer to it as wolfSSL onlyDaniel Stenberg
Remove support for, references to and use of "cyaSSL" from the source and docs. wolfSSL is the current name and there's no point in keeping references to ancient history. Assisted-by: Daniel Gustafsson Closes #3903

Reported-by: Jay Satiro Co-authored-by: Jay Satiro Fixes #3938 Closes #3946
2019-05-25Revert all SASL authzid (new feature) commitsJay Satiro
- Revert all commits related to the SASL authzid feature since the next release will be a patch release, 7.65.1. Prior to this change CURLOPT_SASL_AUTHZID / --sasl-authzid was destined for the next release, assuming it would be a feature release 7.66.0. However instead the next release will be a patch release, 7.65.1 and will not contain any new features. After the patch release after the reverted commits can be restored by using cherry-pick: git cherry-pick a14d72c a9499ff 8c1cc36 c2a8d52 0edf690 Details for all reverted commits: Revert "os400: take care of CURLOPT_SASL_AUTHZID in curl_easy_setopt_ccsid()." This reverts commit 0edf6907ae37e2020722e6f61229d8ec64095b0a. Revert "tests: Fix the line endings for the SASL alt-auth tests" This reverts commit c2a8d52a1356a722ff9f4aeb983cd4eaf80ef221. Revert "examples: Added SASL PLAIN authorisation identity (authzid) examples" This reverts commit 8c1cc369d0c7163c6dcc91fd38edfea1f509ae75. Revert "curl: --sasl-authzid added to support CURLOPT_SASL_AUTHZID from the tool" This reverts commit a9499ff136d89987af885e2d7dff0a066a3e5817.
