2010-11-08CURLOPT_RESOLVE: addedDaniel Stenberg
CURLOPT_RESOLVE is a new option that sends along a curl_slist with name:port:address sets that will populate the DNS cache with entries so that request can be "fooled" to use another host than what otherwise would've been used. Previously we've encouraged the use of Host: for that when dealing with HTTP, but this new feature has the added bonus that it allows the name from the URL to be used for TLS SNI and server certificate name checks as well. This is a first change. Surely more will follow to make it decent.

Looking at the code of Curl_resolv_timeout() in hostip.c, I think that in case of a timeout, the signal handler for SIGALRM never gets removed. I think that in my case it gets executed at some point later on when execution has long left Curl_resolv_timeout() or even the cURL library. The code that is jumped to with siglongjmp() simply sets the error message to "name lookup timed out" and then returns with CURLRESOLV_ERROR. I guess that instead of simply returning without cleaning up, the code should have a goto that jumps to the spot right after the call to Curl_resolv().

2009-11-12Constantine Sapuntzakis patch for hostip.cYang Tse
No need for a separate variable ndns. The memory leak detection will detect code that fails to release a dns reference. The DEBUGASSERT will detect code that releases too many references.

2009-11-11- Constantine Sapuntzakis posted bug #2891595Daniel Stenberg
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2891595) which identified how an entry in the DNS cache would linger too long if the request that added it was in use that long. He also provided the patch that now makes libcurl capable of still doing a request while the DNS hash entry may get timed out.
2009-09-01- Peter Sylvester made a debug featuer for Curl_resolv() that now will forceDaniel Stenberg
libcurl to resolve 'localhost' whatever name you use in the URL *if* you set the --interface option to (exactly) "LocalHost". This will enable us to write tests for custom hosts names but still use a local host server.

2008-07-09- Andreas Schuldei improved Phil Blundell's patch for IPv6 using c-ares, and IDaniel Stenberg
edited it slightly. Now you should be able to use IPv6 addresses fine even with libcurl built to use c-ares.
2008-03-11- Dmitry Popov filed bug report #1911069Daniel Stenberg
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1911069) that identified a race condition in the name resolver code when the DNS cache is shared between multiple easy handles, each running in simultaneous threads that could cause crashes.
2008-01-15Woops, partly revert my previous commit and do it slightly differently instead.Daniel Stenberg
The signalling of that a global DNS cache is wanted is done by setting the option but the setting of the internal variable that it is in use must not be done until it finally actually gets used! NOTE and WARNING: I noticed that you can't actually switch off the global dns cache with CURLOPT_DNS_USE_GLOBAL_CACHE but you couldn't do that previously either and the option is very clearly and loudly documented as DO NOTE USE so I won't bother to fix this bug now.
2008-01-15I made the torture test on test 530 go through. This was actually due toDaniel Stenberg
silly code left from when we switched to let the multi handle "hold" the dns cache when using the multi interface... Of course this only triggered when a certain function call returned error at the correct moment.

hash function for different hashes, and also expanded the default size for the socket hash table used in multi handles to greatly enhance speed when very many connections are added and the socket API is used.
