- fixed libssh.c workaround for a socket being closed by
the library
- eliminate the terrible hack in cf-socket.c to guess when
this happened and try not closing the socket again.
- fixes race in eyeballing when socket could have failed to
be closed for a discarded connect attempt
Closes#12207
Connection filter had a `get_select_socks()` method, inspired by the
various `getsocks` functions involved during the lifetime of a
transfer. These, depending on transfer state (CONNECT/DO/DONE/ etc.),
return sockets to monitor and flag if this shall be done for POLLIN
and/or POLLOUT.
Due to this design, sockets and flags could only be added, not
removed. This led to problems in filters like HTTP/2 where flow control
prohibits the sending of data until the peer increases the flow
window. The general transfer loop wants to write, adds POLLOUT, the
socket is writeable but no data can be written.
This leads to cpu busy loops. To prevent that, HTTP/2 did set the
`SEND_HOLD` flag of such a blocked transfer, so the transfer loop cedes
further attempts. This works if only one such filter is involved. If a
HTTP/2 transfer goes through a HTTP/2 proxy, two filters are
setting/clearing this flag and may step on each other's toes.
Connection filters `get_select_socks()` is replaced by
`adjust_pollset()`. They get passed a `struct easy_pollset` that keeps
up to `MAX_SOCKSPEREASYHANDLE` sockets and their `POLLIN|POLLOUT`
flags. This struct is initialized in `multi_getsock()` by calling the
various `getsocks()` implementations based on transfer state, as before.
After protocol handlers/transfer loop have set the sockets and flags
they want, the `easy_pollset` is *always* passed to the filters. Filters
"higher" in the chain are called first, starting at the first
not-yet-connection one. Each filter may add sockets and/or change
flags. When all flags are removed, the socket itself is removed from the
pollset.
Example:
* transfer wants to send, adds POLLOUT
* http/2 filter has a flow control block, removes POLLOUT and adds
POLLIN (it is waiting on a WINDOW_UPDATE from the server)
* TLS filter is connected and changes nothing
* h2-proxy filter also has a flow control block on its tunnel stream,
removes POLLOUT and adds POLLIN also.
* socket filter is connected and changes nothing
* The resulting pollset is then mixed together with all other transfers
and their pollsets, just as before.
Use of `SEND_HOLD` is no longer necessary in the filters.
All filters are adapted for the changed method. The handling in
`multi.c` has been adjusted, but its state handling the the protocol
handlers' `getsocks` method are untouched.
The most affected filters are http/2, ngtcp2, quiche and h2-proxy. TLS
filters needed to be adjusted for the connecting handshake read/write
handling.
No noticeable difference in performance was detected in local scorecard
runs.
Closes#11833
Rename `close` and `connect` in `struct Curl_cftype` for
consistency and to avoid clashes with macros of the same name
(the standard AmigaOS networking connect() function is implemented
via a macro).
Closes#11491
- currently only on debug build and when env variable
CURL_PROXY_TUNNEL_H2 is present.
- will ALPN negotiate with the proxy server and switch
tunnel filter based on the protocol negotiated.
- http/1.1 tunnel code moved into cf-h1-proxy.[ch]
- http/2 tunnel code implemented in cf-h2-proxy.[ch]
- tunnel start and ALPN set remains in http_proxy.c
- moving all haproxy related code into cf-haproxy.[ch]
VTLS changes
- SSL filters rely solely on the "alpn" specification they
are created with and no longer check conn->bits.tls_enable_alpn.
- checks on which ALPN specification to use (or none at all) are
done in vtls.c when creating the filter.
Testing
- added a nghttpx forward proxy to the pytest setup that
speaks HTTP/2 and forwards all requests to the Apache httpd
forward proxy server.
- extending test coverage in test_10 cases
- adding proxy tests for direct/tunnel h1/h2 use of basic auth.
- adding test for http/1.1 and h2 proxy tunneling to pytest
Closes#10780
- add parameter to `conn_is_alive()` cfilter method that returns
if there is input data waiting on the connection
- refrain from re-using connnection from the cache that have
input pending
- adapt http/2 and http/3 alive checks to digest pending input
to check the connection state
- remove check_cxn method from openssl as that was just doing
what the socket filter now does.
- add tests for connection reuse with special server configs
Closes#10690
- time_connect was not updated when the overall connection failed,
e.g. when SSL verification was unsuccessful, refs #10670
- rework gather those values to interrogate involved filters,
also from all eyeballing attempts, to report the maximum of
those values.
- added 3 test cases in test_06 to check reported values on
successful, partially failed and totally failed connections.

New cfilter HTTP-CONNECT for h3/h2/http1.1 eyeballing.
- filter is installed when `--http3` in the tool is used (or
the equivalent CURLOPT_ done in the library)
- starts a QUIC/HTTP/3 connect right away. Should that not
succeed after 100ms (subject to change), a parallel attempt
is started for HTTP/2 and HTTP/1.1 via TCP
- both attempts are subject to IPv6/IPv4 eyeballing, same
as happens for other connections
- tie timeout to the ip-version HAPPY_EYEBALLS_TIMEOUT
- use a `soft` timeout at half the value. When the soft timeout
expires, the HTTPS-CONNECT filter checks if the QUIC filter
has received any data from the server. If not, it will start
the HTTP/2 attempt.
HTTP/3(ngtcp2) improvements.
- setting call_data in all cfilter calls similar to http/2 and vtls filters
for use in callback where no stream data is available.
- returning CURLE_PARTIAL_FILE for prematurely terminated transfers
- enabling pytest test_05 for h3
- shifting functionality to "connect" UDP sockets from ngtcp2
implementation into the udp socket cfilter. Because unconnected
UDP sockets are weird. For example they error when adding to a
pollset.
HTTP/3(quiche) improvements.
- fixed upload bug in quiche implementation, now passes 251 and pytest
- error codes on stream RESET
- improved debug logs
- handling of DRAIN during connect
- limiting pending event queue
HTTP/2 cfilter improvements.
- use LOG_CF macros for dynamic logging in debug build
- fix CURLcode on RST streams to be CURLE_PARTIAL_FILE
- enable pytest test_05 for h2
- fix upload pytests and improve parallel transfer performance.
GOAWAY handling for ngtcp2/quiche
- during connect, when the remote server refuses to accept new connections
and closes immediately (so the local conn goes into DRAIN phase), the
connection is torn down and a another attempt is made after a short grace
period.
This is the behaviour observed with nghttpx when we tell it to shut
down gracefully. Tested in pytest test_03_02.
TLS improvements
- ALPN selection for SSL/SSL-PROXY filters in one vtls set of functions, replaces
copy of logic in all tls backends.
- standardized the infof logging of offered ALPNs
- ALPN negotiated: have common function for all backends that sets alpn proprty
and connection related things based on the negotiated protocol (or lack thereof).
- new tests/tests-httpd/scorecard.py for testing h3/h2 protocol implementation.
Invoke:
python3 tests/tests-httpd/scorecard.py --help
for usage.
Improvements on gathering connect statistics and socket access.
- new CF_CTRL_CONN_REPORT_STATS cfilter control for having cfilters
report connection statistics. This is triggered when the connection
has completely connected.
- new void Curl_pgrsTimeWas(..) method to report a timer update with
a timestamp of when it happend. This allows for updating timers
"later", e.g. a connect statistic after full connectivity has been
reached.
- in case of HTTP eyeballing, the previous changes will update
statistics only from the filter chain that "won" the eyeballing.
- new cfilter query CF_QUERY_SOCKET for retrieving the socket used
by a filter chain.
Added methods Curl_conn_cf_get_socket() and Curl_conn_get_socket()
for convenient use of this query.
- Change VTLS backend to query their sub-filters for the socket when
checks during the handshake are made.
HTTP/3 documentation on how https eyeballing works.
TLS improvements
- ALPN selection for SSL/SSL-PROXY filters in one vtls set of functions, replaces
copy of logic in all tls backends.
- standardized the infof logging of offered ALPNs
- ALPN negotiated: have common function for all backends that sets alpn proprty
and connection related things based on the negotiated protocol (or lack thereof).
Scorecard with Caddy.
- configure can be run with `--with-test-caddy=path` to specify which caddy to use for testing
- tests/tests-httpd/scorecard.py now measures download speeds with caddy
pytest improvements
- adding Makfile to clean gen dir
- adding nghttpx rundir creation on start
- checking httpd version 2.4.55 for test_05 cases where it is needed. Skipping with message if too old.
- catch exception when checking for caddy existance on system.
Closes#10349
- Curl_write_plain/Curl_read_plain have been eliminated. Last code use
now uses Curl_conn_send/recv so that requests use conn->send/revc
callbacks which defaults to cfilters use.
- Curl_recv_plain/Curl_send_plain have been internalized in cf-socket.c.
- USE_RECV_BEFORE_SEND_WORKAROUND (active on Windows) has been moved
into cf-socket.c. The pre_recv buffer is held at the socket filter
context. `postponed_data` structures have been removed from
`connectdata`.
- the hanger in HTTP/2 request handling was a result of read buffering
on all sends and the multi handling is not prepared for this. The
following happens:
- multi preforms on a HTTP/2 easy handle
- h2 reads and processes data
- this leads to a send of h2 data
- which receives and buffers before the send
- h2 returns
- multi selects on the socket, but no data arrives (its in the buffer already)
the workaround now receives data in a loop as long as there is something in
the buffer. The real fix would be for multi to change, so that `data_pending`
is evaluated before deciding to wait on the socket.
io_buffer, optional, in cf-socket.c, http/2 sets state.drain if lower
filter have pending data.
This io_buffer is only available/used when the
-DUSE_RECV_BEFORE_SEND_WORKAROUND is active, e.g. on Windows
configurations. It also maintains the original checks on protocol
handler being HTTP and conn->send/recv not being replaced.
The HTTP/2 (nghttp2) cfilter now sets data->state.drain when it finds
out that the "lower" filter chain has still pending data at the end of
its IO operation. This prevents the processing from becoming stalled.
Closes#10280
- new functions and macros for cfilter debugging
- set CURL_DEBUG with names of cfilters where debug logging should be
enabled
- use GNUC __attribute__ to enable printf format checks during compile
Closes#10271
- they are mostly pointless in all major jurisdictions
- many big corporations and projects already don't use them

Refactoring of connection setup and happy eyeballing. Move
nghttp2. ngtcp2, quiche and msh3 into connection filters.
- eyeballing cfilter that uses sub-filters for performing parallel connects
- socket cfilter for all transport types, including QUIC
- QUIC implementations in cfilter, can now participate in eyeballing
- connection setup is more dynamic in order to adapt to what filter did
really connect. Relevant to see if a SSL filter needs to be added or
if SSL has already been provided
- HTTP/3 test cases similar to HTTP/2
- multiuse of parallel transfers for HTTP/3, tested for ngtcp2 and quiche
- Fix for data attach/detach in VTLS filters that could lead to crashes
during parallel transfers.
- Eliminating setup() methods in cfilters, no longer needed.
- Improving Curl_conn_is_alive() to replace Curl_connalive() and
integrated ssl alive checks into cfilter.
- Adding CF_CNTRL_CONN_INFO_UPDATE to tell filters to update
connection into and persist it at the easy handle.
- Several more cfilter related cleanups and moves:
- stream_weigth and dependency info is now wrapped in struct
Curl_data_priority
- Curl_data_priority members depend is available in HTTP2|HTTP3
- Curl_data_priority members depend on NGHTTP2 support
- handling init/reset/cleanup of priority part of url.c
- data->state.priority same struct, but shallow copy for compares only
- PROTOPT_STREAM has been removed
- Curl_conn_is_mulitplex() now available to check on capability
- Adding query method to connection filters.
- ngtcp2+quiche: implementing query for max concurrent transfers.
- Adding is_alive and keep_alive cfilter methods. Adding DATA_SETUP event.
- setting keepalive timestamp on connect
- DATA_SETUP is called after the connection has been completely
setup (but may not connected yet) to allow filters to initialize
data members they use.
- there is no socket to be had with msh3, it is unclear how select
shall work
- manual test via "curl --http3 https://curl.se" fail with "empty
reply from server".
- Various socket/conn related cleanups:
- Curl_socket is now Curl_socket_open and in cf-socket.c
- Curl_closesocket is now Curl_socket_close and in cf-socket.c
- Curl_ssl_use has been replaced with Cur_conn_is_ssl
- Curl_conn_tcp_accepted_set has been split into
Curl_conn_tcp_listen_set and Curl_conn_tcp_accepted_set
with a clearer purpose
Closes#10141
- `Curl_ssl_get_config()` now returns the first config if no SSL proxy
filter is active
- socket filter starts connection only on first invocation of its
connect method
Fixes#9982Closes#9983
- almost all backend calls pass the Curl_cfilter intance instead of
connectdata+sockindex
- ssl_connect_data is remove from struct connectdata and made internal
to vtls
- ssl_connect_data is allocated in the added filter, kept at cf->ctx
- added function to let a ssl filter access its ssl_primary_config and
ssl_config_data this selects the propert subfields in conn and data,
for filters added as plain or proxy
- adjusted all backends to use the changed api
- adjusted all backends to access config data via the exposed
functions, no longer using conn or data directly
cfilter renames for clear purpose:
- methods `Curl_conn_*(data, conn, sockindex)` work on the complete
filter chain at `sockindex` and connection `conn`.
- methods `Curl_cf_*(cf, ...)` work on a specific Curl_cfilter
instance.
- methods `Curl_conn_cf()` work on/with filter instances at a
connection.
- rebased and resolved some naming conflicts
- hostname validation (und session lookup) on SECONDARY use the same
name as on FIRST (again).
new debug macros and removing connectdata from function signatures where not
needed.
adapting schannel for new Curl_read_plain paramter.
