configure checks for grep, egrep, sed and ar and set the variables GREP,
EGREP, SED and AR accordingly. We now let already set variables override
the internal choices to let users make decisions when they know the
right choice already. This is a regression as our configure script used
to allow this back before commit 0b57c475 (up to 7.18.2).

Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=3028318
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.

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.
On some ancient distributions such as RHEL-3, <gssapi/gssapi_krb5.h> needs
to be processed after <gssapi/gssapi.h>, but does not include it itself.
This patch checks for <gssapi/gssapi.h> first and then includes it
in the test for <gssapi/gssapi_krb5.h>, resolving the problem.
Without the patch, <gssapi/gssapi_krb5.h> is "present but cannot be
compiled".
ran into some issues with the GSSAPI tests in configure.ac. The tests first
try to determine the include dirs and libs and set CPPFLAGS and LIBS
accordingly. It then checks for the headers and finally sets LIBS a second
time, causing the libs to be included twice. The first setting of LIBS seems
redundant and should be left out, since the first part is otherwise just
about finding headers.
My second issue is that 'krb5-config --libs gssapi' on Darwin is less than
useless and returns junk that, while it happens to work with gcc, causes
clang to choke. For example, --libs returns $CFLAGS along with the libs,
which is really retarded. Simply setting 'LIBS="$LIBS -lgssapi_krb5
-lresolv"' on Darwin is sufficient.
being properly detected under certain circumstances. It had been caused by
strange behavior of pkg-config when handling PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR. pkg-config
distinguishes among empty and non-existent environment variable in that case.
for use by non-configure systems. As intended, configure would overwrite the
distributed one when doing in-tree builds. But VPATH builds would end having
two curlbuild.h files, one in the source tree and another in the build tree.
--with-nss is set but not "yes".
I think we can still improve that to check for pkg-config in that path etc,
but at least this patch brings back the same functionality we had before.
statically linking since libssh2 needs the SSL library link flags to be
set up already to satisfy its dependencies. This wouldn't be necessary
if the libssh2 configure check was changed to use pkg-config since the
--static flag would add the dependencies automatically.
when cross-compiling. The key to success is then you properly setup
PKG_CONFIG_PATH before invoking configure.
I also improved how NSS is detected by trying nss-config if pkg-config isn't
present, and as a last resort just use the lib name and force the user to
setup the LIBS/LDFLAGS/CFLAGS etc properly. The previous last resort would
add a range of various libs that would almost never be quite correct.
to detect gnutls build options with pkg-config only and not libgnutls-config
anymore since GnuTLS has stopped distributing that tool. If an explicit path
is given to configure, we will instead guess on how to link and use that
lib. I did not use the patch from the bug report.
by Daniel Black, I've now added magic to the configure script that makes it
use pkg-config to detect gnutls details as well if the existing method
(using libgnutls-config) fails. While doing this, I cleaned up and unified
the pkg-config usage when detecting openssl and nss as well.
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!

supporting configure's --disable-largefile option for WIN32 targets also.
Non-configure systems which do not use config-win32.h configuration file,
and want to use the WIN32 file API, must define USE_WIN32_LARGE_FILES or
USE_WIN32_SMALL_FILES as appropriate in their own configuration files.
Prior versions of autoconf defined _ALL_SOURCE if _AIX was defined. But,
autoconf 2.62 version of AC_AIX defines _ALL_SOURCE along with other four
preprocessor symbols no matter if the system is AIX or not. To keep the
traditional behaviour, as well as an uniform one, across autoconf versions
AC_AIX is replaced with our own internal macro.
when we have been doing this since revision 1.47 of configure.ac 4 years and

enough at detecting compilation errors or at least it has been properly
configured to do so. Configuration heavily depends on this capability, so
if this compiler sanity check fails the configuration process will now fail.

Only define GSS_C_NT_HOSTBASED_SERVICE to gss_nt_service_name if
GSS_C_NT_HOSTBASED_SERVICE isn't declared by the gssapi headers. This should

this could happen when the --enable-ldaps configure switch is given but
configure couldn't find the LDAP headers or libraries.
default instead of a ca bundle. The configure script will also look for a
ca path if no ca bundle is found and no option given.
- Fixed detection of previously installed curl-ca-bundle.crt

rely on the ability to compile with or without errors, and is safer than
xlc's default of failing only upon severe errors.
get a fresh one downloaded and created with 'make ca-bundle' or you can get
one from here => http://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html if you want a fresh
new one extracted from Mozilla's recent list of ca certs.
The configure option --with-ca-bundle now lets you specify what file to use
as default ca bundle for your build. If not specified, the configure script
will check a few known standard places for a global ca cert to use.
spanking new CURLOPT_SEEKFUNCTION simply to take advantage of the improved
performance for the upload resume cases where you want to upload the last
few bytes of a very large file. To implement this decently, I had to switch
the client code for uploading from fopen()/fread() to plain open()/read() so
that we can use lseek() to do >32bit seeks (as fseek() doesn't allow that)
on systems that offer support for that.
o It looks for the NSS database first in the environment variable SSL_DIR,
then in /etc/pki/nssdb, then it initializes with no database if neither of
those exist.
o If the NSS PKCS#11 libnspsem.so driver is available then PEM files may be
loaded, including the ca-bundle. If it is not available then only
certificates already in the NSS database are used.
o Tries to detect whether a file or nickname is being passed in so the right
thing is done
o Added a bit of code to make the output more like the OpenSSL module,
including displaying the certificate information when connecting in
verbose mode
o Improved handling of certificate errors (expired, untrusted, etc)
The libnsspem.so PKCS#11 module is currently only available in Fedora
8/rawhide. Work will be done soon to upstream it. The NSS module will work
with or without it, all that changes is the source of the certificates and
keys.
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.

static functions to make them follow the header file properly and thus get
used fine in the test suite too etc.
to find that it crashed miserably, and this was due to some select()isms left
in the code. This was due to API restrictions in c-ares 1.3.x, but with the
upcoming c-ares 1.4.0 this is no longer the case so now libcurl runs much
better with c-ares and the multi interface with > 1024 file descriptors in
use.

it fails if the macro that is being undefined is not already defined. To
make this work under all cases and be sure that at a certain point some
specific macro isn't defined we must use the following style in configure:
m4_ifdef([macro], [m4_undefine([macro])])
Check for lowercase 'bool' type at configuration stage. If not available

Move definitions of TRUE and FALSE to setup_once.h

Added a check in configure that tests if the sig_atomic_t type is
available, defining HAVE_SIG_ATOMIC_T if it is available. Providing
a suitable default in setup_once.h if not available.
Added a check in configure that tests if the sig_atomic_t type is
already defined as volatile, defining HAVE_SIG_ATOMIC_T_VOLATILE
if it is available and already defined as volatile.
cross-compiling) in order to detect problems with run-time libraries that
otherwise would occur when the sizeof tests for curl_off_t would run and
thus be much more confusing to users. The check of course should run after
all lib-checks are done and before any other test is used that would run an
executable built for testing-purposes.
-fvisibility=hidden on gcc >= 4.0. This reduces the size of the libcurl

AC_CHECK_HEADERS() and the action-if-found since that action is run even if
just one of the six headers is found and I just now fell over a case with

version of libcurl with different Windows versions. Current version of

4.0 these functions are located in security.dll, under Windows 9x - in

Here's a stab at a consolidation of the SSL detection heuristics into
configure. Source files aren't changed by this patch, except for setup.h and
the various config*.h files. Within the configure script, OPENSSL_ENABLED is
used to determine if SSL is being used or not, and outside configure,
USE_SSLEAY means the same thing; this could be even further unified some day.
Now, when SSL is not detected, configure skips the various checks that are
dependent on SSL, speeding up the configure process and avoiding complications
with cross compiles. I also updated all the architecture- specific config
files I could see, but I couldn't test them.
