755dc2f058 curl_easy_setopt.3: remove what auth types that work for CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH
The list was out of date and the paragraph already refers to the
CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH explanation. All the auth bits are explained properly

It also removes the ambiguity for what the "added" phrase refers to.

169fedbdce login options: remove the ;[options] support from CURLOPT_USERPWD
To avoid the regression when users pass in passwords containing semi-

options. Support for login options in CURLOPT_USERPWD was added in
7.31.0.

Test case 83 was modified to verify that colons and semi-colons can be
used as part of the password when using -u (CURLOPT_USERPWD).

ad34a2d5c8 SSL: protocol version can be specified more precisely
CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1_0, CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1_1,
CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1_2 enum values are added to force exact TLS version
(CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1 means TLS 1.x).

axTLS:
axTLS only supports TLS 1.0 and 1.1 but it cannot be set that only one
of these should be used, so we don't allow the new enum values.

darwinssl:
Added support for the new enum values.

SChannel:
Added support for the new enum values.

CyaSSL:
Added support for the new enum values.
Bug: The original CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1 value enables only TLS 1.0 (it
did the same before this commit), because CyaSSL cannot be configured to
use TLS 1.0-1.2.

GSKit:
GSKit doesn't seem to support TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2, so we do not allow
those values.
Bugfix: There was a typo that caused wrong SSL versions to be passed to
GSKit.

NSS:
TLS minor version cannot be set, so we don't allow the new enum values.

QsoSSL:
TLS minor version cannot be set, so we don't allow the new enum values.

OpenSSL:
Added support for the new enum values.
Bugfix: The original CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1 value enabled only TLS 1.0,
now it enables 1.0-1.2.

Command-line tool:
Added command line options for the new values.

Added the ability to use an XOAUTH2 bearer token [RFC6750] with POP3 for
authentication using RFC6749 "OAuth 2.0 Authorization Framework".

The bearer token is expected to be valid for the user specified in
conn->user. If CURLOPT_XOAUTH2_BEARER is defined and the connection has
an advertised auth mechanism of "XOAUTH2", the user and access token are
formatted as a base64 encoded string and sent to the server as
"AUTH XOAUTH2 <bearer token>".

12d01cb6fa CURLOPT_XFERINFOFUNCTION: introducing a new progress callback
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.

29bf0598aa curl_multi_wait: reduce timeout if the multi handle wants to
If the multi handle's pending timeout is less than what is passed into

is a very good hint that the handle wants to process something in a
shorter time than what otherwise would happen.

curl_multi_wait.3 was updated accordingly to clarify

Users using the Secure Transport (darwinssl) back-end can now use a

Apple's security system is based around the keychain and does not have any
non-public function to create a SecIdentityRef data structure from data
loaded outside of the Keychain, the certificate and private key have to be
loaded into the Keychain first (using the certtool command line tool or
the Security framework's C API) before we can find it and use it.

0f147887b0 Multiple pipelines and limiting the number of connections.
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.

* Elaborates on default values of some curl_easy_setopt() options.
* Reminds the user to cast variadic arguments to curl_easy_setopt() to
  'void *' where curl internally interprets them as such.
* Clarifies the working of the CURLOPT_SEEKFUNCTION option for
  curl_easy_setopt().
* Fixes typo 'forth' → 'fourth'.
* Elaborates on CURL_SOCKET_TIMEOUT.
* Adds some missing periods.
* Notes that the return value of curl_version() must not be passed to

da82f59b69 CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST: stop supporting the 1 value
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.

8373ca3641 curl_multi_wait: no wait if no descriptors to wait for
This is a minor change in behavior after having been pointed out by Mark
Tully and discussed on the list. Initially this case would internally
call poll() with no sockets and a timeout which would equal a sleep for
that specified time.

b511486fcd curl_easy_setopt.3: proto updates + cleanups
- For all *FUNCTION options, they now all show the complete prototype in
  the description. Previously some of them would just refer to a
  typedef'ed function pointer in the curl.h header.

- I made the phrasing of that "Pass a pointer to a function that matches
  the following prototype" the same for all *FUNCTION option descriptions.

- I removed some uses of 'should'. I think I sometimes over-use this
  word as in many places I actually mean MUST or otherwise more specific
  and not-so-optional synonyms.

2a699bc6e9 CURLOPT_SSL_OPTIONS: added
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.

- 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.

1- Two new error codes are introduced.

CURLE_FTP_ACCEPT_FAILED to be set whenever ACCEPTing fails because of

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.
