It helps to prevent a hangup with some FTP servers in case idle session
timeout has exceeded. But it may be useful also for other protocols
that send any quit message on disconnect. Currently used by FTP, POP3,
IMAP and SMTP.
In libssh2 1.2.8, libssh2_session_handshake() replaces
libssh2_session_startup() to fix the previous portability problem with
the socket type that was too small for win64 and thus easily could cause
crashes and more.
It is a bad idea to use the public prefix used by another library and
now we realize that libssh2 introduces a symbol in the upcoming version
1.2.8 that conflicts with our static function named libssh2_free.
As the change in 5f0ae7a062 added a precaution against negative
file sizes that for some reason managed to get returned, this change now
introduces the same check at the second place in the code where the file
size from the libssh2 stat call is used.
This check might not be suitable for a 32 bit curl_off_t, but libssh2.h
assumes long long to work and to be 64 bit so I believe such a small
curl_off_t will be very unlikely to occur in the wild.
It is still not clarified exactly why this happens, but libssh2
sometimes report a negative file size for the remote SFTP file and that
deeply confuses libcurl (or crashes it) so this precaution is added to
avoid badness.

libssh2 1.2.6 and later handle >32bit file sizes properly even on 32bit
architectures and we make sure to use that ability.

Jason McDonald posted bug report #3006786 when he found that the
SFTP code didn't timeout properly in several places in the code
even if a timeout was set properly.
Based on his suggested patch, I wrote a different implementation
that I think addressed the issue better and also uses the connect
timeout for the initial part of the SSH/SFTP done during the
"protocol connect" phase.

FTP(S) use two connections that can be set to different recv and
send functions independently, so by introducing recv+send pairs
in the same manner we already have sockets/connections we can
work with FTPS fine.
This commit fixes the FTPS regression introduced in change d64bd82.
Howard Chu brought the bulk work of this patch that properly
moves out the sending and recving of data to the parts of the
code that are properly responsible for the various ways of doing
so.
Daniel Stenberg assisted with polishing a few bits and fixed some
minor flaws in the original patch.
Another upside of this patch is that we now abuse CURLcodes less
with the "magic" -1 return codes and instead use CURLE_AGAIN more
consistently.
strlen() returns size_t, but ssh libraries are wanting 'unsigned int'. Add
explicit casts and use _ex versions of the ssh library calls.

much as possible in one go, as long as it doesn't block and hasn't reached the
end of the state machine.
This avoids spurious -1 returns from curl_multi_fdset() simply because
previously it would return from this function without anything in EWOUDLBLOCK
and thus basically it wasn't actually waiting for anything!!
auth is used, as it caused a crash. I failed to repeat the issue, but still
made a change that now forces the TCP connection used for a freed SCP
session to get closed and not be re-used.
transfer.c for blocking. It is currently used only by SCP and SFTP protocols.
This enhancement resolves an issue with 100% CPU usage during SFTP upload,
reported by Vourhey.
With the curl memory tracking feature decoupled from the debug build feature,
CURLDEBUG and DEBUGBUILD preprocessor symbol definitions are used as follows:
CURLDEBUG used for curl debug memory tracking specific code (--enable-curldebug)
DEBUGBUILD used for debug enabled specific code (--enable-debug)
KEEP_RECV to better match the general terminology: receive and send is what we
do from the (remote) servers. We read and write from and to the local fs.
Chen pointed out how curl couldn't upload with resume when reading from a
pipe.
This ended up with the introduction of a new return code for the
CURLOPT_SEEKFUNCTION callback that basically says that the seek failed but
that libcurl may try to resolve the situation anyway. In our case this means
libcurl will attempt to instead read that much data from the stream instead
of seeking and that way curl can now upload with resume when data is read
from a stream!
now has an improved ability to do right when the multi interface (both
"regular" and multi_socket) is used for SCP and SFTP transfers. This should
result in (much) less busy-loop situations and thus less CPU usage with no
speed loss.
operation didn't complete properly if the EAGAIN equivalent was returned but
libcurl would simply continue with a half-completed close operation
performed. This ruined persistent connection re-use and cause some
SSH-protocol errors in general. The correction is unfortunately adding a
blocking function - doing it entirely non-blocking should be considered for
a better fix.
function when built to support SCP and SFTP that helps the library to know
in which direction a particular libssh2 operation would return EAGAIN so
that libcurl knows what socket conditions to wait for before trying the
function call again. Previously (and still when using libssh2 0.18 or
earlier), libcurl will busy-loop in this situation when the easy interface
is used!
Changed checkprefix() to use it and those instances of strnequal() that
compare host names or other protocol strings that are defined to be
independent of case in the C locale. This should fix a few more
Turkish locale problems.
