We've announced this pending removal for a long time and we've
repeatedly asked if anyone would care or if anyone objects. Nobody has
objected. It has probably not even been working for a good while since
nobody has tested/used this code recently.
The stuff in krb4.h that was generic enough to be used by other sources
is now present in security.h
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).

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.
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...
Reported-by: byte_bucket in the #curl IRC channel
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
CURLOPT_XFERINFOFUNCTION is now the preferred progress callback function
and CURLOPT_PROGRESSFUNCTION is considered deprecated.
This new callback uses pure 'curl_off_t' arguments to pass on full
resolution sizes. It otherwise retains the same characteristics: the
same call rate, the same meanings for the arguments and the return code
is used the same way.
The progressfunc.c example is updated to show how to use the new
callback for newer libcurls while supporting the older one if built with
an older libcurl or even built with a newer libcurl while running with
an older.
In addition to parsing the optional login options from the URL, added
support for parsing them from CURLOPT_USERPWD, to allow the following
supported command line:
--user username:password;options
As well as parsing the username and password from the URL, added support
for parsing the optional options part from the login details, to allow
the following supported URL format:
schema://username:password;options@example.com/path?q=foobar
This will only be used by IMAP, POP3 and SMTP at present but any
protocol that may be given login options in the URL will be able to
add support for them.
At some point recently we lost the default value for the easy handle's
connection cache, and this change puts it back to 5 - which is the
former default value and it is documented in the curl_easy_setopt.3 man
page.
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.
See the curl_multi_setopt() man page for details.
Created a new IMAP structure and changed the type of the imap proto
variable in connectdata from FTP* to the new IMAP*.
Moved the mailbox variable from the per-connection struct imap_conn to
the new per-request struct and fixed references accordingly.
An ambiguity in the SSLWrite() documentation lead to a bad inference in the
code where we assumed SSLWrite() returned the amount of bytes written to
the socket, when that is not actually true; it returns the amount of data
that is buffered for writing to the socket if it returns errSSLWouldBlock.
Now darwinssl_send() returns CURLE_AGAIN if data is buffered but not written.

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.
After a research team wrote a document[1] that found several live source
codes out there in the wild that misused the CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST
option thinking it was a boolean, this change now bans 1 as a value and
will make libcurl return error for it.
1 was never a sensible value to use in production but was introduced
back in the days to help debugging. It was always documented clearly
this way.
1 was never supported by all SSL backends in libcurl, so this cleanup
makes the treatment of it unified.
The report's list of mistakes for this option were all PHP code and
while there's a binding layer between libcurl and PHP, the PHP team has
decided that they have an as thin layer as possible on top of libcurl so
they will not alter or specifically filter a 'TRUE' value for this
particular option. I sympathize with that position.

Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2012-03/0162.html
Added a new CURLOPT_MAIL_AUTH option that allows the calling program to
set the optional AUTH parameter in the MAIL FROM command.
When this option is specified and an authentication mechanism is used
to communicate with the mail server then the AUTH parameter will be
included in the MAIL FROM command. This is particularly useful when the
calling program is acting as a relay in a trusted environment and
performing server to server communication, as it allows the relaying
server to specify the address of the mailbox that was used to
authenticate and send the original email.
Modify configure.ac to test for new CyaSSL Init function and remove
default install path to system. Change to CyaSSL OpenSSL header and
proper Init in code as well.
Note that this no longer detects or works with CyaSSL before v2
Allow an appliction to set libcurl specific SSL options. The first and
only options supported right now is CURLSSLOPT_ALLOW_BEAST.
It will make libcurl to disable any work-arounds the underlying SSL
library may have to address a known security flaw in the SSL3 and TLS1.0
protocol versions.
This is a reaction to us unconditionally removing that behavior after
this security advisory:
http://curl.haxx.se/docs/adv_20120124B.html
... it did however cause a lot of programs to fail because of old
servers not liking this work-around. Now programs can opt to decrease
the security in order to interoperate with old servers better.
This adds three new options to control the behavior of TCP keepalives:
- CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPALIVE: enable/disable probes
- CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPIDLE: idle time before sending first probe
- CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPINTVL: delay between successive probes
While not all operating systems support the TCP_KEEPIDLE and
TCP_KEEPINTVL knobs, the library will still allow these options to be
set by clients, silently ignoring the values.
"wait_data_conn" was added to the connectionbits in commit c834213ad5 for
handling active FTP connections but as it is purely FTP specific and now
only ever accessed by ftp.c I moved it into the FTP connection struct.
Backpedaled out the funny double-change of state in the multi state
machine by adding a new argument to the do_more() function to signal
completion. This way it can remain in the DO_MORE state properly until
done. Long term, the entire DO_MORE logic should be moved into the FTP
code and be hidden from the multi code as the logic is only used for
FTP.
1- Two new error codes are introduced.
CURLE_FTP_ACCEPT_FAILED to be set whenever ACCEPTing fails because of
FTP server connected.
CURLE_FTP_ACCEPT_TIMEOUT to be set whenever ACCEPTing timeouts.
Neither of these errors are considered fatal and control connection
remains OK because it could just be a firewall blocking server to
connect to the client.
2- One new setopt option was introduced.
CURLOPT_ACCEPTTIMEOUT_MS
It sets the maximum amount of time FTP client is going to wait for a
server to connect. Internal default accept timeout is 60 seconds.
Keep track of which sockets that are the result of accept() calls and
refuse to call the closesocket callback for those sockets. Test case 596
now verifies that the open socket callback is called the same number of
times as the closed socket callback for active FTP connections.

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.
Now called 'use_ssl' instead, which better matches the current CURLOPT
name and since the option is used for all pingpong protocols (at least)
it makes sense to not use 'ftp' in the name.
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.

When using the multi interface, a SOCKS proxy, and a connection that
wouldn't immediately consider itself connected (which my Linux tests do
by default), libcurl would be tricked into doing _two_ connects to the
SOCKS proxy when it setup the data connection and then of course the
second attempt would fail miserably and cause error.
This problem is a regression that was introduced by commit
4a42e5cdaa that was introduced in the 7.21.7 release.

Introduced the initial setup to allow closesocket callbacks by making
sure sclose() is only ever called from one place in the libcurl source
and still run all test cases fine.
The protocol handler's flags field now can set that the protocol
requires a password, so that the set_userpass function doesn't have to
have the specific knowledge of which protocols that do.
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.
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.
When asked to bind the local end of a connection when doing a request,
the code will now disqualify other existing connections from re-use even
if they are connected to the correct remote host.
This will also affect which connections that can be used for pipelining,
so that only connections that aren't bound or bound to the same
device/port you're asking for will be considered.
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.
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.
Both SFTP and SCP are protocols that need to shut down stuff properly
when the connection is about to get torned down. The primary effect of
not doing this shows up as memory leaks (when using SCP or SFTP with the
multi interface).
This is one of the problems detected by test 582.
When using the multi interface and connecting to a host name that
resolves to multiple IP addresses, there was no logic that made it
continue to the next IP if connecting to the first address times
out. This is now corrected.
Make the c-ares resolver code ask for both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses when
IPv6 is enabled.
This is a workaround for the missing ares_getaddrinfo() and is a lot
easier to implement.
Note that as long as c-ares returns IPv4 addresses when IPv6 addresses
were requested but missing, this will cause a host's IPv4 addresses to
occur twice in the DNS cache.

The public axTLS header (at least as of 1.2.7) redefines the memory
functions. We #undef those again immediately after the public header to
limit the damage. This should be fixed in axTLS.
Added axTLS to autotool files and glue code to misc other files.
axtls.h maps SSL API functions, but may change.
axtls.c is just a stub file and will definitely change.
It helps to prevent a hangup with some FTP servers in case idle session
timeout has exceeded. But it may be useful also for other protocols
that send any quit message on disconnect. Currently used by FTP, POP3,
IMAP and SMTP.
While changing Curl_sec_read_msg to accept an enum protection_level
instead of an int, I went ahead and fixed the usage of the associated
fields.
Some code was assuming that prot_clear == 0. Fixed those to use the
proper value. Added assertions prior to any code that would set the
protection level.
