The ability to do HTTP requests over a UNIX domain socket has been
requested before, in Apr 2008 [0][1] and Sep 2010 [2]. While a
discussion happened, no patch seems to get through. I decided to give it
a go since I need to test a nginx HTTP server which listens on a UNIX
domain socket.
One patch [3] seems to make it possible to use the
CURLOPT_OPENSOCKETFUNCTION function to gain a UNIX domain socket.
Another person wrote a Go program which can do HTTP over a UNIX socket
for Docker[4] which uses a special URL scheme (though the name contains
cURL, it has no relation to the cURL library).
This patch considers support for UNIX domain sockets at the same level
as HTTP proxies / IPv6, it acts as an intermediate socket provider and
not as a separate protocol. Since this feature affects network
operations, a new feature flag was added ("unix-sockets") with a
corresponding CURL_VERSION_UNIX_SOCKETS macro.
A new CURLOPT_UNIX_SOCKET_PATH option is added and documented. This
option enables UNIX domain sockets support for all requests on the
handle (replacing IP sockets and skipping proxies).
A new configure option (--enable-unix-sockets) and CMake option
(ENABLE_UNIX_SOCKETS) can disable this optional feature. Note that I
deliberately did not mark this feature as advanced, this is a
feature/component that should easily be available.

This patch updates the documentation for the SMB/CIFS protocol.

...and removed duplication of what protocols are supported from the
description text.
|
|
|
|
...and revised the proxy wording a little as well.
|
|
...and corrected a related typo in curl_easy_setopt.3.
|
|
|
|
As this is covered by the PROTOCOLS section and saves having to update
two parts of the document with the same information in future.
|
|
As implementations are refereed to GSS-API libraries as per the RFC and
GSSAPI typically refers to an authentication mechanism.
|
|
Added missing IMAP to the protocol list.
|
|
|
|
Whilst the description included information about SMTP, the protocol
list only showed "TTP, FTP, IMAP, POP3".

- Remove SSLv3 from SSL default in darwinssl, schannel, cyassl, nss,
openssl effectively making the default TLS 1.x. axTLS is not affected
since it supports only TLS, and gnutls is not affected since it already
defaults to TLS 1.x.
- Update CURLOPT_SSLVERSION doc

|
|
|
|
... and added a small example

Option --pinnedpubkey takes a path to a public key in DER format and
only connect if it matches (currently only implemented with OpenSSL).
Provides CURLOPT_PINNEDPUBLICKEY for curl_easy_setopt().
Extract a public RSA key from a website like so:
openssl s_client -connect google.com:443 2>&1 < /dev/null | \
sed -n '/-----BEGIN/,/-----END/p' | openssl x509 -noout -pubkey \
| openssl rsa -pubin -outform DER > google.com.der

... and a minor wording edit
|
|
When enabling CURLOPT_NOBODY, libcurl effectively switches off upload
mode and will do a download (without a body). This is now better
explained in this man page.

This repeats what has already been documented in both the curl manpage
and CURLOPT_USERPWD documentation but is provided here for completeness
as someone may not especially read the latter when using libcurl.

Added information about Kerberos V5 requiring the domain part in the
user name.
Mentioned that the user name can be specified in UPN format, and not
just in Down-Level Logon Name format, following the information
added in commit 7679cb3fa8 reworking the exisitng information in the
process.
|
|
Reflect recent changes in SPNEGO and GSS-API code in the docs.
Update them with appropriate namings and remove visible spots for
GSS-Negotiate.
