05a443adf2 SSH: public key can now be an empty string
If an empty string is passed to CURLOPT_SSH_PUBLIC_KEYFILE, libcurl will
pass no public key to libssh2 which then tries to compute it from the
private key. This is known to work when libssh2 1.4.0+ is linked against
OpenSSL.

2c905fd1f8 query-part: ignore the URI part for given protocols
By setting PROTOPT_NOURLQUERY in the protocol handler struct, the
protocol will get the "query part" of the URL cut off before the data is
handled by the protocol-specific code. This makes libcurl adhere to
RFC3986 section 2.2.

Test 1220 is added to verify a file:// URL with query-part.

d7934b8bd4 curl_multi_fdset: correct fdset with FTP PORT use
After a PORT has been issued, and the multi handle would switch to the
CURLM_STATE_DO_MORE state (which is unique for FTP), libcurl would
return the wrong fdset to wait for when curl_multi_fdset() is
called. The code would blindly assume that it was waiting for a connect
of the second connection, while that isn't true immediately after the
PORT command.

Also, the function multi.c:domore_getsock() was highly FTP-centric and
therefore ugly to keep in protocol-agnostic code. I solved this problem
by introducing a new function pointer in the Curl_handler struct called
domore_getsock() which is only called during the DOMORE state for
protocols that set that pointer.

The new ftp.c:ftp_domore_getsock() function now returns fdset info about
the control connection's command/response handling while such a state is
in use, and goes over to waiting for a writable second connection first
once the commands are done.

The original problem could be seen by running test 525 and checking the
time stamps in the FTP server log. I can verify that this fix at least
fixes this problem.

13b64d7558 protocols: use CURLPROTO_ internally
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.

8831000bc0 protocol handler: added flags field
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.

3eac14b43c SSH: add protocol lock direction
Some protocols have to call the underlying functions without regard to
what exact state the socket signals. For example even if the socket says
"readable", the send function might need to be called while uploading,
or vice versa. This is the case for libssh2 based protocols: SCP and
SFTP and we now introduce a define to set those protocols and we make
the multi interface code aware of this concept.

This is another fix to make test 582 run properly.

When using the multi_socket API to do SFTP upload, it is important that
we set a quick expire when leaving the SSH_SFTP_UPLOAD_INIT state as

51b8d30dc4 SFTP: more ignoring negative file sizes
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.

2c16681225 Adjusted to take in account that...
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)

1bb68cbcfa changed ssh.c to use HAVE_LIBSSH2_SESSION_BLOCK_DIRECTION define provided by libssh2.h; removed related define block from ssh.h. 2009-05-19 23:21:25 +00:00

3aa3d7e629 Internal cleanup: KEEP_WRITE and KEEP_READ are now called KEEP_SEND and
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.

e01b7c1ede - Bug report #2709004 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2709004) by Tim
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!

7ffe62d901 - Given a recent enough libssh2, libcurl can now seek/resume with SFTP even
on file indexes beyond 2 or 4GB.

07416b61e3 - Using the libssh2 0.19 function libssh2_session_block_directions(), libcurl
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.

03ca98b0df - SCP and SFTP with the multi interface had the same flaw: the 'DONE'
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.
