@ -18,24 +18,6 @@ HTTP/2
To decide: if we need to bundle parts of the nghttp2 stuff that probably
won't be shipped by many distros.
- multiplexing/pipelining
Add a bit to `CURLMOPT_PIPELINING` which then makes libcurl attempt to
multiplex HTTP/2 connections to the same host, using the HTTP1 pipelining
host matching logic. Doing multiple transfers to the same host using the
multi interface will then make them multiplexed. By default, this will
handle flow-control for the streams in an automatic fashion.
With multiplexed streams, we also need to make sure that we terminate
streams correctly when a single easy handle is removed from such a
connection.
Since HTTP/2 is designed to always use a single connection for each host
(origin really), it seems fair that with "pipelining" enabled there will be
no extra checks for number of streams etc added to the connection apart
from the maximum number set over the HTTP/2 protocol (the remote sets a
maximum) and only if that is reached, another connection gets created.
- stream properties API
Provide options for setting priorities and dependencies among the streams
