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).
When doing HTTP requests Negotiate authenticated, the entire connnection
may become authenticated and not just the specific HTTP request which is
otherwise how HTTP works, as Negotiate can basically use NTLM under the
hood. curl was not adhering to this fact but would assume that such
requests would also be authenticated per request.

This header file must be included after all header files except
memdebug.h, as it does similar memory function redefinitions and can be
similarly affected by conflicting definitions in system or dependent
library headers.
Since we just started make use of free(NULL) in order to simplify code,
this change takes it a step further and:
- converts lots of Curl_safefree() calls to good old free()
- makes Curl_safefree() not check the pointer before free()
The (new) rule of thumb is: if you really want a function call that
frees a pointer and then assigns it to NULL, then use Curl_safefree().
But we will prefer just using free() from now on.
The function "free" is documented in the way that no action shall occur for
a passed null pointer. It is therefore not needed that a function caller
repeats a corresponding check.

SSLeay was the name of the library that was subsequently turned into
OpenSSL many moons ago (1999). curl does not work with the old SSLeay
library since years. This is now reflected by only using USE_OPENSSL in
code that depends on OpenSSL.
Sending NTLM/Negotiate header again after successful authentication
breaks the connection with certain Proxies and request types (POST to MS
Forefront).
This commit disables pipelining for HTTP/2 or upgraded connections. For
HTTP/2, we do not support multiplexing. In general, requests cannot be
pipelined in an upgraded connection, since it is now different protocol.
Previously if HTTP/2 traffic is appended to HTTP Upgrade response header
(thus they are in the same buffer), the trailing HTTP/2 traffic is not
processed and lost. The appended data is most likely SETTINGS frame.
If it is lost, nghttp2 library complains server does not obey the HTTP/2
protocol and issues GOAWAY frame and curl eventually drops connection.
This commit fixes this problem and now trailing data is processed.
To provide consistent behaviour between the various HTTP authentication
functions use CURLcode based error codes for Curl_input_digest()
especially as the calling code doesn't use the specific error code just
that it failed.
HTTP 1.1 is clearly specified to only allow three digit response codes,
and libcurl used sscanf("%3d") for that purpose. This made libcurl
support smaller numbers but not larger. It does now, but we will not
make any specific promises nor document this further since it is going
outside of what HTTP is.

Also, unify code for checking for CURLcode errors with:

instead of
if(result == CURLE_OK), if(CURLE_OK == result) or if(result != CURLE_OK)
Historically the default "unknown" value for progress.size_dl and
progress.size_ul has been zero, since these values are initialized
implicitly by the calloc that allocates the curl handle that these
variables are a part of. Users of curl that install progress
callbacks may expect these values to always be >= 0.
Currently it is possible for progress.size_dl and progress.size_ul
to by set to a value of -1, if Curl_pgrsSetDownloadSize() or
Curl_pgrsSetUploadSize() are passed a "size" of -1 (which a few
places currently do, and a following patch will add more). So
lets update Curl_pgrsSetDownloadSize() and Curl_pgrsSetUploadSize()

"Expect: 100-continue", which was once deprecated in HTTP/2, is now
resurrected in HTTP/2 draft 14. This change adds its support to
HTTP/2 code. This change also includes stricter header field
checking.
1 - fixes the warnings when built without http2 support
2 - adds CURLE_HTTP2, a new error code for errors detected by nghttp2
basically when they are about http2 specific things.
- Replace CURLAUTH_GSSNEGOTIATE with CURLAUTH_NEGOTIATE
- CURL_VERSION_GSSNEGOTIATE is deprecated which
is served by CURL_VERSION_SSPI, CURL_VERSION_GSSAPI and
CURUL_VERSION_SPNEGO now.
- Remove display of feature 'GSS-Negotiate'
It's wrong to assume that we can send a single SPNEGO packet which will
complete the authentication. It's a *negotiation* — the clue is in the
name. So make sure we handle responses from the server.
Curl_input_negotiate() will already handle bailing out if it thinks the
state is GSS_S_COMPLETE (or SEC_E_OK on Windows) and the server keeps
talking to us, so we should avoid endless loops that way.
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

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.

Updated the docs to clarify and the code accordingly, with test 1528 to
verify:
When CURLHEADER_SEPARATE is set and libcurl is asked to send a request
to a proxy but it isn't CONNECT, then _both_ header lists
(CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER and CURLOPT_PROXYHEADER) will be used since the
single request is then made for both the proxy and the server.
In addition to FTP, other connection based protocols such as IMAP, POP3,
SMTP, SCP, SFTP and LDAP require a new connection when different log-in
credentials are specified. Fixed the detection logic to include these
other protocols.

Because of the socket is unblocking, PolarSSL does need call to getsock to
get the action to perform in multi environment.
In some cases, it might happen we have not received yet all data to perform
the handshake. ssh_handshake returns POLARSSL_ERR_NET_WANT_READ, the state
is updated but because of the getsock has not the proper #define macro to,
the library never prevents to select socket for input thus the socket will
never be awaken when last data is available. Thus it leads to timeout.
This patch enables HTTP POST/PUT in HTTP2.
We disabled Expect header field and chunked transfer encoding
since HTTP2 forbids them.
In HTTP1, Curl sends small upload data with request headers, but
HTTP2 requires upload data must be in DATA frame separately.
So we added some conditionals to achieve this.
A server might respond with a content-encoding header and a response
that was encoded accordingly in HTTP-draft-09/2.0 mode, even if the
client did not send an accept-encoding header earlier. The server might
not send a content-encoding header if the identity encoding was used to
encode the response.
See:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-httpbis-http2-09#section-9.3
This patch chooses different approach to integrate HTTP2 into HTTP curl
stack. The idea is that we insert HTTP2 layer between HTTP code and
socket(TLS) layer. When HTTP2 is initialized (either in NPN or Upgrade),
we replace the Curl_recv/Curl_send callbacks with HTTP2's, but keep the
original callbacks in http_conn struct. When sending serialized data by
nghttp2, we use original Curl_send callback. Likewise, when reading data
from network, we use original Curl_recv callback. In this way we can
treat both TLS and non-TLS connections.
With this patch, one can transfer contents from https://twitter.com and
from nghttp2 test server in plain HTTP as well.
The code still has rough edges. The notable one is I could not figure
out how to call nghttp2_session_send() when underlying socket is
writable.
Check the NPN result before preparing an HTTP request and switch into
HTTP/2.0 mode if necessary. This is a work in progress, the actual code
to prepare and send the request using nghttp2 is still missing from
Curl_http2_send_request().
This prevents sending a `Content-Length: -1` header, e.g this ocurred
with the following combination:
* standard HTTP POST (no chunked encoding),
* user-defined read function set,
* `CURLOPT_POSTFIELDSIZE(_LARGE)` NOT set.
With this fix it now behaves like HTTP PUT.
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.
Renamed copy_header_value() to Curl_copy_header_value() as this
function is now non static.

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.
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.

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.

A bundle is a list of all persistent connections to the same host.
The connection cache consists of a hash of bundles, with the
hostname as the key.
The benefits may not be obvious, but they are two:
1) Faster search for connections to reuse, since the hash
lookup only finds connections to the host in question.
2) It lays out the groundworks for an upcoming patch,
which will introduce multiple HTTP pipelines.
This patch also removes the awkward list of "closure handles",
which were needed to send QUIT commands to the FTP server
when closing a connection.
Now we allocate a separate closure handle and use that
one to close all connections.
This has been tested in a live system for a few weeks, and of
course passes the test suite.
.. that are sent when auth-negotiating before a chunked
upload or when setting the 'Transfer-Encoding: chunked'
header and intentionally sending no content.
Adjust test565 and test1333 accordingly.
The logic previously checked for a started NTLM negotiation only for
host and not also with proxy, leading to problems doing POSTs over a
proxy NTLM that are larger than 2000 bytes. Now it includes proxy in the
check.

The function https_getsock was only implemented properly when USE_SSLEAY
or USE_GNUTLS is defined, but it is also necessary for USE_SCHANNEL.
The problem occurs when Curl_read_plain or Curl_write_plain returns
CURLE_AGAIN. In that case CURL_OK is returned to the multi-interface an
the used socket is set to state CURL_POLL_REMOVE and the easy-state is
set to CURLM_STATE_PROTOCONNECT. This is fine, because later the socket
should be set to CURL_POLL_IN or CURL_POLL_OUT via multi_getsock. That's
where https_getsock is called and doesn't return any sockets.
When doing a chunked-encoded POST with -d (CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS) and the
size of the POST was zero length, it made libcurl first send a zero
chunk and then the terminating one. This could confuse a receiver and it
should rather just send the terminating chunk as it does with this fix.
Test case 1333 is added to verify.

Curl_protocol_connect() now does the tunneling through the HTTP proxy if
requested instead of letting each protocol specific connection function
do it.
If a proxy offers several Authentication schemes where NTLM and
Negotiate are offered by the proxy and you tell libcurl not to use the
Negotiate scheme then the request never returns when the proxy answers
with its HTTP 407 reply.
It is reproducible by the following steps:
- Use a proxy that offers NTLM and Negotiate ( CURLOPT_PROXY and
CURLOPT_PROXYPORT )
- Tell libcurl NOT to use Negotiate CURL_EASY_SETOPT(CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH,
CURLAUTH_BASIC | CURLAUTH_DIGEST | CURLAUTH_NTLM )
- Start the request
The call to CURL_EASY_PERFORM never returns. If you switch on debug
logging you can see that libcurl issues a new request As soon as it
received the 407 reply. Instead it should return and set the response
code to 407.
Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2011-10/0323.html
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.

Added CURLOPT_TRANSFER_ENCODING as the option to set to request Transfer
Encoding in HTTP requests (if built zlib enabled). I also renamed
CURLOPT_ENCODING to CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING (while keeping the old name
around) to reduce the confusion when we have to encoding options for
HTTP.
--tr-encoding is now the new command line option for curl to request
this, and thus I updated the test cases accordingly.
When TE: is inserted in the request, we must add a "Connection: TE" as
well to be HTTP 1.1 compliant. If a custom Connection: header is passed
in, we must use that and only append TE to it. Test case 1125 verifies
TE: + custom Connection:.
Since this struct member is used in the code to determine what and how
to decode automatically and since it is now also used for compressed
Transfer-Encodings, I renamed it to the more suitable 'auto_decoding'
Transfer-Encoding differs from Content-Encoding in a few subtle ways,
but primarily it concerns the transfer only and not the content so when
discovered to be compressed we know we have to uncompress it. There will
only arrive compressed transfers in a response after we have requested
them with the appropriate TE: header.
Test case 1122 and 1123 verify.
The new http_proxy.* files now host HTTP proxy specific code (500+ lines
moved out from http.c), and as a consequence there is a macro introduced
for the Curl_proxyCONNECT() function so that code can use it without
actually supporting proxy (or HTTP) in builds.
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.
