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

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

2019-08-09CURLOPT_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

2019-07-17docs: 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

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

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()."

The time field in the curl_fileinfo struct will always be zero. No code was ever implemented to actually convert the date string to a time_t. Fixes #3829 Closes #3835
2019-04-21CURLOPT_MAXAGE_CONN: set the maximum allowed age for conn reuseDaniel Stenberg
... and disconnect too old ones instead of trying to reuse. Default max age is set to 118 seconds. Ref: #3722 Closes #3782
2019-04-13CURLOPT_ADDRESS_SCOPE: fix range check and moretmilburn
Commit 9081014 fixed most of the confusing issues between scope id and scope however 844896d added bad limits checking assuming that the scope is being set and not the scope id. I have fixed the documentation so it all refers to scope ids. In addition Curl_if2ip refered to the scope id as remote_scope_id which is incorrect, so I renamed it to local_scope_id. Adjusted-by: Daniel Stenberg Closes #3655 Closes #3765 Fixes #3713
2019-04-11CURLOPT_DNS_USE_GLOBAL_CACHE: removeDaniel Stenberg
Remove the code too. The functionality has been disabled in code since 7.62.0. Setting this option will from now on simply be ignored and have no function. Closes #3654

2019-02-23examples: remove recursive calls to curl_multi_socket_actionDaniel Stenberg
From within the timer callbacks. Recursive is problematic for several reasons. They should still work, but this way the examples and the documentation becomes simpler. I don't think we need to encourage recursive calls. Discussed in #3537 Closes #3601
2019-02-19connection: never reuse CONNECT_ONLY conectionsDaniel Stenberg

2019-02-01schannel: stop calling it "winssl"Daniel Stenberg
Stick to "Schannel" everywhere. The configure option --with-winssl is kept to allow existing builds to work but --with-schannel is added as an alias. Closes #3504
2019-01-31doc: use meaningless port number in CURLOPT_LOCALPORT exampleJohn Marshall
Use an ephemeral port number here; previously the example had 8080 which could be confusing as the common web server port number might be misinterpreted as suggesting this option affects the remote port. URL: https://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2019-01/0084.html Closes #3513
