The Curl_easy pointer struct entry in connectdata is now gone. Just
before commit 215db086e0 landed on January 8, 2021 there were 919
references to conn->data.
Closes#6608
... in most cases instead of 'struct connectdata *' but in some cases in
addition to.
- We mostly operate on transfers and not connections.
- We need the transfer handle to log, store data and more. Everything in
libcurl is driven by a transfer (the CURL * in the public API).
- This work clarifies and separates the transfers from the connections
better.
- We should avoid "conn->data". Since individual connections can be used
by many transfers when multiplexing, making sure that conn->data
points to the current and correct transfer at all times is difficult
and has been notoriously error-prone over the years. The goal is to
ultimately remove the conn->data pointer for this reason.
Closes#6425
... and free it as soon as the transfer is done. It removes the extra
alloc when a new size is set with setopt() and reduces memory for unused
easy handles.
In addition: the closure_handle now doesn't use an allocated buffer at
all but the smallest supported size as a stack based one.
Closes#5472
More connection cache accesses are protected by locks.
CONNCACHE_* is a beter prefix for the connection cache lock macros.
Curl_attach_connnection: now called as soon as there's a connection
struct available and before the connection is added to the connection
cache.
Curl_disconnect: now assumes that the connection is already removed from
the connection cache.
Ref: #4915Closes#5009
This makes them never to be considered "the oldest" to be discarded when
reaching the connection cache limit. The reasoning here is that
CONNECT_ONLY is primarily used in combination with using the
connection's socket post connect and since that is used outside of
curl's knowledge we must assume that it is in use until explicitly
closed.

... so that it has a sensible value when ConnectionExists() is called which
needs it set to differentiate host "bundles" correctly on port number!
Also, make conncache:hashkey() use correct port for bundles that are proxy vs
host connections.
Probably a regression from 7.62.0

Only HTTP proxy use where multiple host names can be used over the same

We use "conn" everywhere to be a pointer to the connection.
Introduces two functions that "attaches" and "detaches" the connection
to and from the transfer.
Going forward, we should favour using "data->conn" (since a transfer
always only has a single connection or none at all) to "conn->data"
(since a connection can have none, one or many transfers associated with
it and updating conn->data to be correct is error prone and a frequent
reason for internal issues).
Closes#3442
Do not assume/store assocation between a given easy handle and the
connection if it can be avoided.
Long-term, the 'conn->data' pointer should probably be removed as it is a
little too error-prone. Still used very widely though.

The function does not return the same value as snprintf() normally does,
so readers may be mislead into thinking the code works differently than
it actually does. A different function name makes this easier to detect.

Follow-up to 1b76c38904. The VTLS backends that close down the TLS
layer for a connection still needs a Curl_easy handle for the session_id
cache etc.
Fixes#2764Closes#2771
By masking sure to use the *current* easy handle with extracted
connections from the cache, and make sure to NULLify the ->data pointer
when the connection is put into the cache to make this mistake easier to
detect in the future.

The 'list element' struct now has to be within the data that is being
added to the list. Removes 16.6% (tiny) mallocs from a simple HTTP
transfer. (96 => 80)
Also removed return codes since the llist functions can't fail now.
Test 1300 updated accordingly.

* HTTPS proxies:
An HTTPS proxy receives all transactions over an SSL/TLS connection.
Once a secure connection with the proxy is established, the user agent
uses the proxy as usual, including sending CONNECT requests to instruct
the proxy to establish a [usually secure] TCP tunnel with an origin
server. HTTPS proxies protect nearly all aspects of user-proxy
communications as opposed to HTTP proxies that receive all requests
(including CONNECT requests) in vulnerable clear text.
With HTTPS proxies, it is possible to have two concurrent _nested_
SSL/TLS sessions: the "outer" one between the user agent and the proxy
and the "inner" one between the user agent and the origin server
(through the proxy). This change adds supports for such nested sessions
as well.
A secure connection with a proxy requires its own set of the usual SSL
options (their actual descriptions differ and need polishing, see TODO):
--proxy-cacert FILE CA certificate to verify peer against
--proxy-capath DIR CA directory to verify peer against
--proxy-cert CERT[:PASSWD] Client certificate file and password
--proxy-cert-type TYPE Certificate file type (DER/PEM/ENG)
--proxy-ciphers LIST SSL ciphers to use
--proxy-crlfile FILE Get a CRL list in PEM format from the file
--proxy-insecure Allow connections to proxies with bad certs
--proxy-key KEY Private key file name
--proxy-key-type TYPE Private key file type (DER/PEM/ENG)
--proxy-pass PASS Pass phrase for the private key
--proxy-ssl-allow-beast Allow security flaw to improve interop
--proxy-sslv2 Use SSLv2
--proxy-sslv3 Use SSLv3
--proxy-tlsv1 Use TLSv1
--proxy-tlsuser USER TLS username
--proxy-tlspassword STRING TLS password
--proxy-tlsauthtype STRING TLS authentication type (default SRP)
All --proxy-foo options are independent from their --foo counterparts,
except --proxy-crlfile which defaults to --crlfile and --proxy-capath
which defaults to --capath.
Curl now also supports %{proxy_ssl_verify_result} --write-out variable,
similar to the existing %{ssl_verify_result} variable.
Supported backends: OpenSSL, GnuTLS, and NSS.
* A SOCKS proxy + HTTP/HTTPS proxy combination:
If both --socks* and --proxy options are given, Curl first connects to
the SOCKS proxy and then connects (through SOCKS) to the HTTP or HTTPS
proxy.
TODO: Update documentation for the new APIs and --proxy-* options.
Look for "Added in 7.XXX" marks.
curl_printf.h defines printf to curl_mprintf, etc. This can cause
problems with external headers which may use
__attribute__((format(printf, ...))) markers etc.
To avoid that they cause problems with system includes, we include
curl_printf.h after any system headers. That makes the three last
headers to always be, and we keep them in this order:
curl_printf.h
curl_memory.h
memdebug.h
None of them include system headers, they all do funny #defines.

Fixes#743
to allow code to act differently on the situation.
Also added some more info message for the connection re-use function to
make it clearer when connections are not re-used.
Previously we counted all connections to a specific host name and that
would be used for the CURLMOPT_MAX_HOST_CONNECTIONS check for example,
while servers on different port numbers are normally considered
different "origins" on the web and should thus be considered different
hosts.
All the existing Curl_bundle* functions were only ever used from within
the conncache.c file, so I moved them over and made them static (and
removed the Curl_ prefix).
