2019-08-06curl_multi_poll: a sister to curl_multi_wait() that waits moreDaniel Stenberg
Repeatedly we see problems where using curl_multi_wait() is difficult or just awkward because if it has no file descriptor to wait for internally, it returns immediately and leaves it to the caller to wait for a small amount of time in order to avoid occasional busy-looping. This is often missed or misunderstood, leading to underperforming applications. This change introduces curl_multi_poll() as a replacement drop-in function that accepts the exact same set of arguments. This function works identically to curl_multi_wait() - EXCEPT - for the case when there's nothing to wait for internally, as then this function will by itself wait for a "suitable" short time before it returns. This effectiely avoids all risks of busy-looping and should also make it less likely that apps "over-wait". This also changes the curl tool to use this funtion internally when doing parallel transfers and changes curl_easy_perform() to use it internally. Closes #4163
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

Introducing CURLVERSION_SIXTH with nghttp2 info. Closes #4121
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

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

2019-06-30docs: Fix links to OpenSSL docsJay Satiro
OpenSSL changed their manual locations and does not redirect to the new locations. Bug: https://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2019-06/0056.html Reported-by: Daniel Stenberg
2019-06-26curl_multi_wait.3: escape backslash in exampleGaël PORTAY
The backslash in the character Line Feed must be escaped. The current man-page outputs the code as following: fprintf(stderr, "curl_multi failed, code %d.0, mc); The commit fixes it as follow: fprintf(stderr, "curl_multi failed, code %d\n", mc); Closes #4079
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
2019-06-20typecheck: CURLOPT_CONNECT_TO takes an slist tooDaniel Stenberg
Additionally, add an alias in curl.h for slist-using options so that we can grep/parse those out at will. Closes #4042
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()." 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.

2019-04-21CURLOPT_MAXAGE_CONN: set the maximum allowed age for conn reuseDaniel Stenberg

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
2019-04-13urlapi: stricter CURLUPART_PORT parsingDaniel Stenberg
Only allow well formed decimal numbers in the input. Document that the number MUST be between 1 and 65535. Add tests to test 1560 to verify the above. Ref: https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/3753 Closes #3762
2019-04-11CURLOPT_DNS_USE_GLOBAL_CACHE: removeDaniel Stenberg

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

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
