If the scratch buffer already existed when the CRLF conversion was
performed then the buffer pointer would be checked twice for NULL. This
second check is only necessary if the call to malloc() was performed by
the first check.
Whilst I had moved the dot stuffing code from being performed before
CRLF conversion takes place to after it, in commit 4bd860a001, I had
moved it outside the 'when something read' block of code when meant
it could perform the dot stuffing twice on partial send if nread
happened to contain the right values. It also meant the function could
potentially read past the end of buffer. This was highlighted by the
following warning:
warning: `nread' might be used uninitialized in this function
The previous condition that checked if the socket was marked as readable
when also adding a writable one, was incorrect and didn't take the pause
bits properly into account.
Basically since servers often then don't respond well to this and
instead send the full contents and then libcurl would instead error out
with the assumption that the server doesn't support resume. As the data
is then already transfered, this is now considered fine.
Test case 1434 added to verify this. Test case 1042 slightly modified.

... for the local variable name in functions holding the return
code. Using the same name universally makes code easier to read and
follow.
Also, unify code for checking for CURLcode errors with:
if(result) or if(!result)
instead of
if(result == CURLE_OK), if(CURLE_OK == result) or if(result != CURLE_OK)
The method change is forbidden by the obsolete RFC2616, but libcurl did
it anyway for compatibility reasons. The new RFC7231 allows this
behaviour so there's no need for the scary "Violate RFC 2616/10.3.x"
notice. Also update the comments accordingly.
Make all code use connclose() and connkeep() when changing the "close
state" for a connection. These two macros take a string argument with an
explanation, and debug builds of curl will include that in the debug
output. Helps tracking connection re-use/close issues.
set.infilesize in this case was modified in several places, which could
lead to repeated requests using the same handle to get unintendent/wrong
consequences based on what the previous request did!
This makes the findprotocol() function work as intended so that libcurl
can properly be restricted to not support HTTP while still supporting
HTTPS - since the HTTPS handler previously set both the HTTP and HTTPS
bits in the protocol field.
This fixes --proto and --proto-redir for most SSL protocols.
This is done by adding a few new convenience defines that groups HTTP
and HTTPS, FTP and FTPS etc that should then be used when the code wants
to check for both protocols at once. PROTO_FAMILY_[protocol] style.

For HTTP/2, we may read up everything including responde body with
header fields in Curl_http_readwrite_headers. If no content-length is
provided, curl waits for the connection close, which we emulate it
using conn->proto.httpc.closed = TRUE. The thing is if we read
everything, then http2_recv won't be called and we cannot signal the
HTTP/2 stream has closed. As a workaround, we return nonzero from
data_pending to call http2_recv.
When using the multi socket interface, libcurl calls the
curl_multi_timer_callback asking to be woken up after
CURL_TIMEOUT_EXPECT_100 milliseconds.
After the timeout has expired, calling curl_multi_socket_action with
CURL_SOCKET_TIMEOUT as sockfd leads libcurl to check expired
timeouts. When handling the 100-continue one, the following check in
Curl_readwrite() fails if exactly CURL_TIMEOUT_EXPECT_100 milliseconds
passed since the timeout has been set!
It seems logical to consider that having waited for exactly
CURL_TIMEOUT_EXPECT_100 ms is enough.
Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1334
With the recently added timeout "reminder" functionality, there's no
reason left for us to execute timeout code before the time is
ripe. Simplifies the handling too.
This will make the *TIMEOUT and *CONNECTTIMEOUT options more accurate
again, which probably is most important when the *_MS versions are used.
In multi_socket, make sure to update 'now' after having handled activity
on a socket.
Following commit 0aafd77fa4, replaced the internal usage of
FORMAT_OFF_T and FORMAT_OFF_TU with the external versions that we
expect API programmers to use.
This negates the need for separate definitions which were subtly
different under different platforms/compilers.
Make sure that we detect such attempts and return a proper error code
instead of silently handling this in problematic ways.
Updated the documentation to mention this limitation.
Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1286
Since all systems have inaccuracy in the timeout handling it is
imperative that we add an inaccuracy margin to the general timeout and
connecttimeout handling with the multi interface. This way, when the
timeout fires we should be fairly sure that it has passed the timeout
value and will be suitably detected.
For cases where the timeout fire before the actual timeout, we would
otherwise consume the timeout action and still not run the timeout code
since the condition wasn't met.

Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1298
When waiting for a 100-continue response from the server, the
Curl_readwrite() will refuse to run if called until the timeout has been
reached.
We timeout code in multi_socket() allows code to run slightly before the
actual timeout time, so for test 154 it could lead to the function being
executed but refused in Curl_readwrite() and then the application would
just sit idling forever.
This was detected with runtests.pl -e on test 154.
All protocol handler structs are now opaque (void *) in the
SessionHandle struct and moved in the request-specific sub-struct
'SingleRequest'. The intension is to keep the protocol specific
knowledge in their own dedicated source files [protocol].c etc.
There's some "leakage" where this policy is violated, to be addressed at
a later point in time.
Introducing a number of options to the multi interface that
allows for multiple pipelines to the same host, in order to
optimize the balance between the penalty for opening new
connections and the potential pipelining latency.
Two new options for limiting the number of connections:
CURLMOPT_MAX_HOST_CONNECTIONS - Limits the number of running connections
to the same host. When adding a handle that exceeds this limit,
that handle will be put in a pending state until another handle is
finished, so we can reuse the connection.
CURLMOPT_MAX_TOTAL_CONNECTIONS - Limits the number of connections in total.
When adding a handle that exceeds this limit,
that handle will be put in a pending state until another handle is
finished. The free connection will then be reused, if possible, or
closed if the pending handle can't reuse it.
Several new options for pipelining:
CURLMOPT_MAX_PIPELINE_LENGTH - Limits the pipeling length. If a
pipeline is "full" when a connection is to be reused, a new connection
will be opened if the CURLMOPT_MAX_xxx_CONNECTIONS limits allow it.
If not, the handle will be put in a pending state until a connection is
ready (either free or a pipe got shorter).
CURLMOPT_CONTENT_LENGTH_PENALTY_SIZE - A pipelined connection will not
be reused if it is currently processing a transfer with a content
length that is larger than this.
CURLMOPT_CHUNK_LENGTH_PENALTY_SIZE - A pipelined connection will not
be reused if it is currently processing a chunk larger than this.
CURLMOPT_PIPELINING_SITE_BL - A blacklist of hosts that don't allow
pipelining.
CURLMOPT_PIPELINING_SERVER_BL - A blacklist of server types that don't allow
pipelining.
See the curl_multi_setopt() man page for details.
Remove internal separated behavior of the easy vs multi intercace.

This commit renames lib/setup.h to lib/curl_setup.h and
renames lib/setup_once.h to lib/curl_setup_once.h.
Removes the need and usage of a header inclusion guard foreign
to libcurl. [1]
Removes the need and presence of an alarming notice we carried
in old setup_once.h [2]
----------------------------------------
1 - lib/setup_once.h used __SETUP_ONCE_H macro as header inclusion guard
up to commit ec691ca3 which changed this to HEADER_CURL_SETUP_ONCE_H,
this single inclusion guard is enough to ensure that inclusion of
lib/setup_once.h done from lib/setup.h is only done once.
Additionally lib/setup.h has always used __SETUP_ONCE_H macro to
protect inclusion of setup_once.h even after commit ec691ca3, this
was to avoid a circular header inclusion triggered when building a
c-ares enabled version with c-ares sources available which also has
a setup_once.h header. Commit ec691ca3 exposes the real nature of
__SETUP_ONCE_H usage in lib/setup.h, it is a header inclusion guard
foreign to libcurl belonging to c-ares's setup_once.h
The renaming this commit does, fixes the circular header inclusion,
and as such removes the need and usage of a header inclusion guard
foreign to libcurl. Macro __SETUP_ONCE_H no longer used in libcurl.
2 - Due to the circular interdependency of old lib/setup_once.h and the
c-ares setup_once.h header, old file lib/setup_once.h has carried
back from 2006 up to now days an alarming and prominent notice about
the need of keeping libcurl's and c-ares's setup_once.h in sync.
Given that this commit fixes the circular interdependency, the need
and presence of mentioned notice is removed.
All mentioned interdependencies come back from now old days when
the c-ares project lived inside a curl subdirectory. This commit
removes last traces of such fact.

With FOLLOWLOCATION enabled. When a 3xx page is downloaded and the
download size was known (like with a Content-Length header), but the
subsequent URL (transfered after the 3xx page) was chunked encoded, then
the previous "known download size" would linger and cause the progress
meter to get incorrect information, ie the former value would remain
being sent in. This could easily result in downloads that were WAY
larger than "expected" and would cause >100% outputs with the curl

When libcurl sends a HTTP request on a re-used connection and detects it

The PROT_* set of internal defines for the protocols is no longer
used. We now use the same bits internally as we have defined in the
public header using the CURLPROTO_ prefix. This is for simplicity and
because the PROT_* prefix was already used duplicated internally for a
set of KRB4 values.
The PROTOPT_* defines were moved up to just below the struct definition
within which they are used.
The protocol handler struct got a 'flags' field for special information
and characteristics of the given protocol.
This now enables us to move away central protocol information such as
CLOSEACTION and DUALCHANNEL from single defines in a central place, out
to each protocol's definition. It also made us stop abusing the protocol
field for other info than the protocol, and we could start cleaning up
other protocol-specific things by adding flags bits to set in the
handler struct.
The "protocol" field connectdata struct was removed as well and the code
now refers directly to the conn->handler->protocol field instead. To
make things work properly, the code now always store a conn->given
pointer that points out the original handler struct so that the code can
learn details from the original protocol even if conn->handler is
modified along the way - for example when switching to go over a HTTP
proxy.
As we know how much to send, we can and should stop once we've sent that
much data as it avoids having to rely on other mechanisms to detect the
end.
This is one of the problems detected by test 582.

CURLOPT_RESOLVE is a new option that sends along a curl_slist with

that it allows the name from the URL to be used for TLS SNI and server

When a new transfer is about to start we now set the proper timeouts to

the times expire and the multi interface is used. This also improves
curl_multi_timeout().
When libcurl internally decided to wait for a 100-continue header, there
was no call to the timeout function so there was no timeout callback

handled the situation. We now set a timeout to get triggered.

Bob Richmond: There's an annoying situation where libcurl will

It should only a timeout if the timer lapsed and we DIDN'T

trouble if a server by mistake or willingly sends a header that is more or
less without an end. The limit is set to 100K.

We read data with libssh2 while doing the "DO" operation for SFTP and then
when we were about to start getting data for the actual file part, the
"TRANSFER" part, we waited for socket action (in 1000ms) before doing a
libssh2-read. But in this case libssh2 had already read and buffered the

is inited at the start of the DO action. I removed the Curl_transfer_keeper
struct completely, and I had to move out a few struct members (that had to
be set before DO or used after DONE) to the UrlState struct. The SingleRequest
struct is accessed with SessionHandle->req.
One of the biggest reasons for doing this was the bunch of duplicate struct
members in HandleData and Curl_transfer_keeper since it was really messy to
keep track of two variables with the same name and basically the same purpose!
do_init() and do_complete() which now are called first and last in the DO
function. It simplified the flow in multi.c and the functions got more
sensible names!
for the cases where there's nothing to do in here, like for SFTP directory
listings that already is complete when this function gets called. The init
stuff clears byte counters which isn't really desired.
curl_easy_setopt() that alters how libcurl functions when following
redirects. It makes libcurl obey the RFC2616 when a 301 response is received
after a non-GET request is made. Default libcurl behaviour is to change
method to GET in the subsequent request (like it does for response code 302
- because that's what many/most browsers do), but with this CURLOPT_POST301
option enabled it will do what the spec says and do the next request using
the same method again. I.e keep POST after 301.
The curl tool got this option as --post301
Test case 1011 and 1012 were added to verify.
