... 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.

... and not in the connection setup, as for multiplexed transfers the
connection setup might be skipped and then the transfer would end up
without the set user-agent!

When doing HTTP authentication and a port number set with CURLOPT_PORT,
the code would previously have the URL's port number override as if it
had been a redirect to an absolute URL.

We currently use both spellings the british "behaviour" and the american
"behavior". However "behavior" is more used in the project so I think
it's worth dropping the british name.

When the initial request isn't possible to send in its entirety, the

This flag was applied to the connection struct that is released on

When the method is updated inside libcurl we must still not change the
method as set by the user as then repeated transfers with that same

... 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
For HTTP 1.x, it's a protocol error when the server sends more bytes
than announced. If this happens, don't reuse the connection, because the
start position of the next response is undefined.
Closes#5440
A common set of functions instead of many separate implementations for
creating buffers that can grow when appending data to them. Existing
functionality has been ported over.
In my early basic testing, the total number of allocations seem at
roughly the same amount as before, possibly a few less.
See docs/DYNBUF.md for a description of the API.
Closes#5300
Prior to this change if there was a 303 reply to a PUT request then
the subsequent request to respond to that redirect would also be a PUT.
It was determined that was most likely incorrect based on the language
of the RFCs. Basically 303 means "see other" resource, which implies it
is most likely not the same resource, therefore we should not try to PUT
to that different resource.
Refer to the discussions in #5237 and #5248 for more information.

Prior to this change in libcurl debug builds http2 stream closure was

After:

When libcurl retries a connection due to it being "seemingly dead" or by

- Disable warning C4127 "conditional expression is constant" globally
in curl_setup.h for when building with Microsoft's compiler.
This mainly affects building with the Visual Studio project files found
in the projects dir.
Prior to this change the cmake and winbuild build systems already
disabled 4127 globally for when building with Microsoft's compiler.
Also, 4127 was already disabled for all build systems in the limited
circumstance of the WHILE_FALSE macro which disabled the warning
specifically for while(0). This commit removes the WHILE_FALSE macro and
all other cruft in favor of disabling globally in curl_setup.
Background:
We have various macros that cause 0 or 1 to be evaluated, which would
cause warning C4127 in Visual Studio. For example this causes it:
#define Curl_resolver_asynch() 1
Full behavior is not clearly defined and inconsistent across versions.
However it is documented that since VS 2015 Update 3 Microsoft has
addressed this somewhat but not entirely, not warning on while(true) for
example.
Prior to this change some C4127 warnings occurred when I built with
Visual Studio using the generated projects in the projects dir.

Some editors and IDEs assume that source files use UTF-8 file encodings.
It also fixes the build with MSVC when /utf-8 command line option is

libraries of a project).
