This function is meant to work *exactly* as curl_easy_perform() but will
use the event-based libcurl API internally instead of
curl_multi_perform(). To avoid relying on an actual event-based library
and to not use non-portable functions (like epoll or similar), there's a
rather inefficient emulation layer implemented on top of Curl_poll()
instead.
There's currently some convenience logging done in curl_easy_perform_ev
which helps when tracking down problems. They may be suitable to remove
or change once things seem to be fine enough.
curl has a new --test-event option when built with debug enabled that
then uses curl_easy_perform_ev() instead of curl_easy_perform(). If
built without debug, using --test-event will only output a warning
message.
NOTE: curl_easy_perform_ev() is not part if the public API on purpose.
It is only present in debug builds of libcurl and MUST NOT be considered
stable even then. Use it for libcurl-testing purposes only.
runtests.pl now features an -e command line option that makes it use
--test-event for all curl command line tests. The man page is updated.
libcurl quietly truncates usernames, passwords, and options from
before an '@' sign in a URL to 255 (= MAX_CURL_PASSWORD_LENGTH - 1)
characters to fit in fixed-size buffers on the stack. Allocate a
buffer large enough to fit the parsed fields on the fly instead to
support longer passwords.
After this change, there are no more uses of MAX_CURL_OPTIONS_LENGTH
left, so stop defining that constant while at it. The hardcoded max
username and password length constants, on the other hand, are still
used in HTTP proxy credential handling (which this patch doesn't
touch).

Instead of nesting "if(success)" blocks and leaving the reader in
suspense about what happens in the !success case, deal with failure
cases early, usually with a simple goto to clean up and return from
the function.
No functional change intended. The main effect is to decrease the
indentation of this function slightly.
libcurl truncates usernames, passwords, and options set with
curl_easy_setopt to 255 (= MAX_CURL_PASSWORD_LENGTH - 1) characters.
This doesn't affect the return value from curl_easy_setopt(), so from
the caller's point of view, there is no sign anything strange has
happened, except that authentication fails.
For example:
# Prepare a long (300-char) password.
s=0123456789; s=$s$s$s$s$s$s$s$s$s$s; s=$s$s$s;
# Start a server.
nc -l -p 8888 | tee out & pid=$!
# Tell curl to pass the password to the server.
curl --user me:$s http://localhost:8888 & sleep 1; kill $pid
# Extract the password.
userpass=$(
awk '/Authorization: Basic/ {print $3}' <out |
tr -d '\r' |
base64 -d
)
password=${userpass#me:}
echo ${#password}
Expected result: 300
Actual result: 255
The fix is simple: allocate appropriately sized buffers on the heap
instead of trying to squeeze the provided values into fixed-size
on-stack buffers.

libcurl truncates usernames and passwords it reads from .netrc to
LOGINSIZE and PASSWORDSIZE (64) characters without any indication to
the user, to ensure the values returned from Curl_parsenetrc fit in a
caller-provided buffer.
Fix the interface by passing back dynamically allocated buffers
allocated to fit the user's input. The parser still relies on a
256-character buffer to read each line, though.
So now you can include an ~246-character password in your .netrc,
instead of the previous limit of 63 characters.

Instead of remembering before each "return" statement which temporary
allocations, if any, need to be freed, take care to set pointers to
NULL when no longer needed and use a goto to a common block to exit
the function and free all temporaries.
No functional change intended. Currently the only temporary buffer in
this function is "proxy" which is already correctly freed when
appropriate, but there will be more soon.
Use appropriately sized buffers on the heap instead of fixed-size
buffers on the stack, to allow for longer usernames and passwords.
Callers never pass anything longer than MAX_CURL_USER_LENGTH (resp.
MAX_CURL_PASSWORD_LENGTH), so no functional change inteded yet.
This makes the socket callback get called with the proper bitmask as
otherwise the application could be left hanging waiting for reading on
an upload connection!

With everything being struct SessionHandle pointers now, this rename
makes multi.c use the library-wide practise of calling that pointer
'data' instead of the previously used 'easy'.
Moved Curl_easy_addmulti() from easy.c to multi.c, renamed it to
easy_addmulti and made it static.
Removed Curl_easy_initHandleData() and uses of it since it was emptied
in commit cdda92ab67b47d74a.
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.
1 - always allocate the struct in protocol->setup_connection. Some
protocol handlers had to get this function added.
2 - always free at the end of a request. This is also an attempt to keep
less memory in the handle after it is completed.
CURLOPT_DNS_USE_GLOBAL_CACHE broke in commit c43127414d (been
broken since the libcurl 7.29.0 release). While this option has been
documented as deprecated for almost a decade and nobody even reported
this bug, it should remain functional.
Added test case 1512 to verify
The previous naming scheme ftp_state_post_XXXX() wasn't really helpful
as it wasn't always immediately after 'xxxx' and it wasn't easy to
understand what it does based on such a name.
This new one is instead ftp_state_yyyy() where yyyy describes what it
does or sends.
This is a regression as this logic used to work. It isn't clear when it
broke, but I'm assuming in 7.28.0 when we went all-multi internally.
This likely never worked with the multi interface. As the failed
connection is detected once the multi state has reached DO_MORE, the
Curl_do_more() function was now expanded somewhat so that the
ftp_do_more() function can request to go "back" to the previous state
when it makes another attempt - using PASV.
Added test case 1233 to verify this fix. It has the little issue that it
assumes no service is listening/accepting connections on port 1...

For some reason, OS X 10.5's GCC suddenly stopped working correctly with
macros that change MD5_Init etc. in the code to CC_MD5_Init etc., so I
worked around this by removing use of the macros and inserting static
functions that just call CommonCrypto's implementations of the functions
instead.
This changes the previous check for untrusted certs to a check for
certs explicitely marked as trusted.
The change is backward-compatible (tested with certdata.txt v1.80).
The internal function that's used to detect known file extensions for
the default Content-Type got the the wrong pointer passed in when
CURLFORM_BUFFER + CURLFORM_BUFFERPTR were used. This had the effect that
strlen() would be used which could lead to an out-of-bounds read (and
thus segfault). In most cases it would only lead to it not finding or
using the correct default content-type.
It also showed that test 554 and test 587 were testing for the
previous/wrong behavior and now they're updated as well.

Christian Heimes brought to our attention that the certdata.txt
format has recently changed [1], causing ca-bundle.crt created

The motivation for having a separate struct that keep track of an easy
handle when using the multi handle was removed when we switched to
always using the multi interface internally. Now they were just two
separate struct that was always allocated for each easy handle.
This first step just moves the Curl_one_easy struct members into the
SessionHandle struct and hides this somehow (== keeps the source code
changes to a minimum) by defining Curl_one_easy to SessionHandle
The biggest changes in this commit are:
1 - the linked list of easy handles had to be changed somewhat due
to the new struct layout. This made the main linked list pointer
get renamed to 'easyp' and there's also a new pointer to the last
node, called easylp. It is no longer circular but ends with ->next
pointing to NULL. New nodes are still added last.
2 - easy->state is now called easy->mstate to avoid name collision
(This doesn't need to appear in the release notes.) I noticed a few places
where infof() was called, and there should've been an LF at the end of the
string, but there wasn't.
It turns out Snow Leopard not only has SecItemCopyMatching() defined in
a header not included by the omnibus header, but it won't work for our
purposes, because searching for SecIdentityRef objects wasn't added
to that API until Lion. So we now use the old SecKeychainSearch API
instead if the user is building under, or running under, Snow Leopard.

Previously we used __MAC_10_X and __IPHONE_X to mark digest-generating
code that was specific to OS X and iOS. Now we use
__MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED and __IPHONE_OS_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED
instead of those macros.

For the standard VMS text file formats, VMS needs to read the file to
get the actual file size.
For the standard VMS binary file formats, VMS needs a special format of
fopen() call so that it stops reading at the logical end of file instead
of at the end of the blocks allocated to the file.
I structured the patch this way as I was not sure about changing the
structures or parameters to the routines, but would prefer to only call
the stat() function once and pass the information to where the fopen()
call is made.

The code for CURLFORM_FILECONTENT had its check for duplicate options
wrong so that it would reject CURLFORM_PTRNAME if used in combination
with it (but not CURLFORM_COPYNAME)! The flags field used for this
purpose cannot be interpreted that broadly.

Instead of going 50,100,150 etc millisecond delay time when nothing has
been found to do or wait for, we now start lower and double each loop as
in 4,8,16,32 etc.
This lowers the minimum wait without sacrifizing the longer wait too
much with unnecessary CPU cycles burnt.
