asyn-ares.c and asyn-thread.c are two separate backends that implement
the same (internal) async resolver API for libcurl to use. Backend is
specified at build time.
The internal resolver API is defined in asyn.h for asynch resolvers.
The new http_proxy.* files now host HTTP proxy specific code (500+ lines
moved out from http.c), and as a consequence there is a macro introduced
for the Curl_proxyCONNECT() function so that code can use it without
actually supporting proxy (or HTTP) in builds.
Added axTLS to autotool files and glue code to misc other files.
axtls.h maps SSL API functions, but may change.
axtls.c is just a stub file and will definitely change.
A shared library tests/libtest/.libs/lihostname.so is preloaded in NTLM
test-cases to override the system implementation of gethostname(). It
makes it possible to test the NTLM authentication for exact match, and
this way test the implementation of MD4 and DES.
If LD_PRELOAD doesn't work, a debug build willl also workk as debug
builds are now made to prefer a specific environment variable and will
then return that content as host name instead of the actual one.
Kamil wrote the bulk of this, Daniel Stenberg polished it.
When configured with '--without-ssl --with-nss', NTLM authentication
now uses NSS crypto library for MD5 and DES. For MD4 we have a local
implementation in that case. More details are available at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/603783
In order to get it working, curl_global_init() must be called with
CURL_GLOBAL_SSL or CURL_GLOBAL_ALL. That's necessary because NSS needs
to be initialized globally and we do so only when the NSS library is
actually required by protocol. The mentioned call of curl_global_init()
is responsible for creating of the initialization mutex.
There was also slightly changed the NSS initialization scenario, in
particular, loading of the NSS PEM module. It used to be loaded always
right after the NSS library was initialized. Now the library is
initialized as soon as any SSL or NTLM is required, while the PEM module
is prevented from being loaded until the SSL is actually required.
makes the LDAP code much cleaner, nicer and in general being a
better libcurl citizen. If a new enough OpenLDAP version is
detect, the new and shiny lib/openldap.c code is then used
instead of the old cruft
Code by Howard, minor cleanups by Daniel.
This is Hoi-Ho Chan's patch with some minor fixes by me. There
are some potential issues in this, but none worse than we can
sort out on the list and over time.
curl_easy_duphandle did not necessarily duplicate the CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE
option. It only enabled the cookie engine in the destination handle if
data->cookies is not NULL (where data is the source handle). In case of a
newly initialized handle which just had the cookie support enabled by a
curl_easy_setopt(handle, CURL_COOKIEFILE, "")-call, handle->cookies was
still NULL because the setopt-call only appends the value to
data->change.cookielist, hence duplicating this handle would not have the
cookie engine switched on.
We also concluded that the slist-functionality would be suitable for being
put in its own module rather than simply hanging out in lib/sendf.c so I
created lib/slist.[ch] for them.
Curl_sspi_global_init() and Curl_sspi_global_cleanup() which previously were
named Curl_ntlm_global_init() and Curl_ntlm_global_cleanup() in http_ntlm.c
Also adjusted socks_sspi.c to remove the link-time dependency on the Windows
SSPI library using it now in the same way as it was done in http_ntlm.c.
CURLOPT_SOCKS5_GSSAPI_SERVICE and CURLOPT_SOCKS5_GSSAPI_NEC to allow libcurl
to do GSS-style authentication with SOCKS5 proxies. The curl tool got the
options called --socks5-gssapi-service and --socks5-gssapi-nec to enable
these.
the configure script checks for openldap and friends and we link with those
libs just like we link all other third party libraries, and we no longer
dlopen() those libraries. Our private header file lib/ldap.h was renamed to
lib/curl_ldap.h due to this. I set a tag in CVS (curl-7_17_0-preldapfix)
just before this commit, just in case.
internally, with code provided by sslgen.c. All SSL-layer-specific code is
then written in ssluse.c (for OpenSSL) and gtls.c (for GnuTLS).
As far as possible, internals should not need to know what SSL layer that is
in use. Building with GnuTLS currently makes two test cases fail.
TODO.gnutls contains a few known outstanding issues for the GnuTLS support.
GnuTLS support is enabled with configure --with-gnutls
