Reduced size of dynamically_allocated_data structure.
Reduced number of stored values in enum dupstring and enum dupblob. This
affects the reduced array placed in the UserDefined structure.
Closes#13188
Move all handling of HTTP's `Expect: 100-continue` feature into a client
reader. Add sending flag `KEEP_SEND_TIMED` that triggers transfer
sending on general events like a timer.
HTTP installs a `CURL_CR_PROTOCOL` reader when announcing `Expect:
100-continue`. That reader works as follows:
- on first invocation, records time, starts the `EXPIRE_100_TIMEOUT`
timer, disables `KEEP_SEND`, enables `KEEP_SEND_TIMER` and returns 0,
eos=FALSE like a paused upload.
- on subsequent invocation it checks if the timer has expired. If so, it
enables `KEEP_SEND` and switches to passing through reads to the
underlying readers.
Transfer handling's `readwrite()` will be invoked when a timer expires
(like `EXPIRE_100_TIMEOUT`) or when data from the server arrives. Seeing
`KEEP_SEND_TIMER`, it will try to upload more data, which triggers
reading from the client readers again. Which then may lead to a new
pausing or cause the upload to start.
Flags and timestamps connected to this have been moved from
`SingleRequest` into the reader's context.
Closes#13110
A transfer may do several `SingleRequest`s for its success. This happens
regularly for authentication, follows and retries on failed connections.
The "readwrite()" calls and functions connected to those carried a `bool
*done` parameter to indicate that the current `SingleRequest` is over.
This may happen before `upload_done` or `download_done` bits of
`SingleRequest` are set.
The problem with that is now `write_resp()` protocol handlers are
invoked in places where the `bool *done` cannot be passed up to the
caller. Instead of being a bool in the call chain, it needs to become a
member of `SingleRequest`, reflecting its state.
This removes the `bool *done` parameter and adds the `done` bit to
`SingleRequest` instead. It adds `Curl_req_soft_reset()` for using a
`SingleRequest` in a follow up, clearing `done` and other
flags/counters.
Closes#13096
Add `mime` client reader. Encapsulates reading from mime parts, getting
their length, rewinding and unpausing.
- remove special mime handling from sendf.c and easy.c
- add general "unpause" method to client readers
- use new reader in http/imap/smtp
- make some mime functions static that are now only used internally
In addition:
- remove flag 'forbidchunk' as no longer needed
Closes#13039
- update client reader documentation
- client reader, add rewind capabilities
- tell creader to rewind on next start
- Curl_client_reset() will keep reader for future rewind if requested
- add Curl_client_cleanup() for freeing all resources independent of
rewinds
- add Curl_client_start() to trigger rewinds
- move rewind code from multi.c to sendf.c and make part of
"cr-in"'s implementation
- http, move the "resume_from" handling into the client readers
- the setup of a HTTP request is reshuffled to follow:
* determine method, target, auth negotiation
* install the client reader(s) for the request, including crlf
conversions and "chunked" encoding
* apply ranges to client reader
* concat request headers, upgrades, cookies, etc.
* complete request by determining Content-Length of installed
readers in combination with method
* send
- add methods for client readers to
* return the overall length they will generate (or -1 when unknown)
* return the amount of data on the CLIENT level, so that
expect-100 can decide if it want to apply itself
* set a "resume_from" offset or fail if unsupported
- struct HTTP has become largely empty now
- rename `Client_reader_*` to `Curl_creader_*`
Closes#13026
- Move all the "upload_done" handling to request.c
- add possibility to abort sending of a request
- add `Curl_req_done_sending()` for checks
- transfer.c: readwrite_upload() now clean
- removing data->state.ulbuf and data->req.upload_fromhere
- as well as data->req.upload_present
- set data->req.upload_done on having read all from
the client and completely flushed the send buffer
- tftp, remove setting of data->req.upload_fromhere
- serves no purpose as `upload_present` is not set
and the data itself is directly `sendto()` anyway
- smtp, make upload EOB conversion a client reader
- xfer_ulbuf addition
- add xfer_ulbuf for borrowing, similar to xfer_buf
- use in file upload
- use in c-hyper body sending
- h1-proxy, remove init of data->state.uilbuf that is never used
- smb, add own send_buf instead of using data->state.ulbuf
Closes#13010
- replace `Curl_read()`, `Curl_write()` and `Curl_nwrite()` to

- send/recv of transfer related data is now done via
`Curl_xfer_send()/Curl_xfer_recv()` which no longer has
socket/socketindex as parameter. It decides on the transfer
setup of `conn->sockfd` and `conn->writesockfd` on which
connection filter chain to operate.
- send/recv on a specific connection filter chain is done via

- clarify that the special CURLE_AGAIN hangling to return
`CURLE_OK` with length 0 only applies to `Curl_xfer_send()`

- fix a bug in websocket `curl_ws_recv()` that mixed up data
when it arrived in more than a single chunk (to be made
into a sperate PR, also)
Added as documented [in
CLIENT-READER.md](5b1f31dfba/docs/CLIENT-READERS.md).
- old `Curl_buffer_send()` completely replaced by new `Curl_req_send()`
- old `Curl_fillreadbuffer()` replaced with `Curl_client_read()`
- HTTP chunked uploads are now formatted in a client reader added when
needed.
- FTP line-end conversions are done in a client reader added when
needed.
- when sending requests headers, remaining buffer space is filled with
body data for sending in "one go". This is independent of the request
body size. Resolves#12938 as now small and large requests have the
same code path.
Changes done to test cases:
- test513: now fails before sending request headers as this initial
"client read" triggers the setup fault. Behaves now the same as in
hyper build
- test547, test555, test1620: fix the length check in the lib code to
only fail for reads *smaller* than expected. This was a bug in the
test code that never triggered in the old implementation.

The method for sending not just raw bytes, but bytes that are either
"headers" or "body". The send abstraction stack, to to bottom, now is:
* `Curl_req_send()`: has parameter to indicate amount of header bytes,
buffers all data.
* `Curl_xfer_send()`: knows on which socket index to send, returns
amount of bytes sent.
* `Curl_conn_send()`: called with socket index, returns amount of bytes
sent.
In addition there is `Curl_req_flush()` for writing out all buffered
bytes.
`Curl_req_send()` is active for requests without body,
`Curl_buffer_send()` still being used for others. This is because the
special quirks need to be addressed in future parts:
* `expect-100` handling
* `Curl_fillreadbuffer()` needs to add directly to the new
`data->req.sendbuf`
* special body handlings, like `chunked` encodings and line end
conversions will be moved into something like a Client Reader.
In functions of the pattern `CURLcode xxx_send(..., ssize_t *written)`,
replace the `ssize_t` with a `size_t`. It makes no sense to allow for negative
values as the returned `CURLcode` already specifies error conditions. This
allows easier handling of lengths without casting.
Closes#12964

SingleRequest reshuffling
- move functions into request.[ch]
- differentiate between reset and free
- add Curl_req_done() to perform last actions
- add a send `bufq` to SingleRequest for future use in keeping upload data
Closes#12963
- enforce a response body length of 0, if the
response has no Content-lenght. This is according
to the RTSP spec.
- excess bytes in a response body are forwarded to
the client writers which will report and fail the

Follow-up to d7b6ce6Fixes#12701Closes#12706
This clarifies the handling of server responses by folding the code for
the complicated protocols into their protocol handlers. This concerns
mainly HTTP and its bastard sibling RTSP.
The terms "read" and "write" are often used without clear context if
they refer to the connect or the client/application side of a
transfer. This PR uses "read/write" for operations on the client side
and "send/receive" for the connection, e.g. server side. If this is
considered useful, we can revisit renaming of further methods in another
PR.
Curl's protocol handler `readwrite()` method been changed:
```diff
- CURLcode (*readwrite)(struct Curl_easy *data, struct connectdata *conn,
- const char *buf, size_t blen,
- size_t *pconsumed, bool *readmore);
+ CURLcode (*write_resp)(struct Curl_easy *data, const char *buf, size_t blen,
+ bool is_eos, bool *done);
```
The name was changed to clarify that this writes reponse data to the
client side. The parameter changes are:
* `conn` removed as it always operates on `data->conn`
* `pconsumed` removed as the method needs to handle all data on success
* `readmore` removed as no longer necessary
* `is_eos` as indicator that this is the last call for the transfer
response (end-of-stream).
* `done` TRUE on return iff the transfer response is to be treated as
finished
This change affects many files only because of updated comments in
handlers that provide no implementation. The real change is that the
HTTP protocol handlers now provide an implementation.
The HTTP protocol handlers `write_resp()` implementation will get passed
**all** raw data of a server response for the transfer. The HTTP/1.x
formatted status and headers, as well as the undecoded response
body. `Curl_http_write_resp_hds()` is used internally to parse the
response headers and pass them on. This method is public as the RTSP
protocol handler also uses it.
HTTP/1.1 "chunked" transport encoding is now part of the general
*content encoding* writer stack, just like other encodings. A new flag
`CLIENTWRITE_EOS` was added for the last client write. This allows
writers to verify that they are in a valid end state. The chunked
decoder will check if it indeed has seen the last chunk.
The general response handling in `transfer.c:466` happens in function
`readwrite_data()`. This mainly operates now like:
```
static CURLcode readwrite_data(data, ...)
{
do {
Curl_xfer_recv_resp(data, buf)
...
Curl_xfer_write_resp(data, buf)
...
} while(interested);
...
}
```
All the response data handling is implemented in
`Curl_xfer_write_resp()`. It calls the protocol handler's `write_resp()`
implementation if available, or does the default behaviour.
All raw response data needs to pass through this function. Which also
means that anyone in possession of such data may call
`Curl_xfer_write_resp()`.

- add `SingleRequest->download_done` as indicator that
all download bytes have been received
- remove `stop_reading` bool from readwrite functions
- move excess body handling into client download writer
Closes#12371
- changed header/chunk/handler->readwrite prototypes to accept `buf`,
`blen` and a `pconsumed` pointer. They now get the buffer to work on
and report back how many bytes they consumed
- eliminated `k->str` in SingleRequest
- improved excess data handling to properly calculate with any body data
left in the headerb buffer
- eliminated `k->badheader` enum to only be a bool
Closes#12283
This PR has these changes:
Renaming of unencode_* to cwriter, e.g. client writers
- documentation of sendf.h functions
- move max decode stack checks back to content_encoding.c
- define writer phase which was used as order before
- introduce phases for monitoring inbetween decode phases
- offering default implementations for init/write/close
Add type paramter to client writer's do_write()
- always pass all writes through the writer stack
- writers who only care about BODY data will pass other writes unchanged
add RAW and PROTOCOL client writers
- RAW used for Curl_debug() logging of CURLINFO_DATA_IN
- PROTOCOL used for updates to data->req.bytecount, max_filesize checks and
Curl_pgrsSetDownloadCounter()
- remove all updates of data->req.bytecount and calls to
Curl_pgrsSetDownloadCounter() and Curl_debug() from other code
- adjust test457 expected output to no longer see the excess write
Closes#12184
- fix HTTP header parsing to report incomplete
lines it buffers as consumed!
- re-implement the RTP parser for interleave RTP
messages for robustness. It is now keeping its
state at the connection
- RTSP protocol handler "readwrite" implementation
now tracks if the response is before/in/after
header parsing or "in" a bod by calling
"Curl_http_readwrite_headers()" itself. This
allows it to know when non-RTP bytes are "junk"
or HEADER or BODY.
- tested with #12035 and various small receive
sizes where current master fails
Closes#12052
By making sure we set state.upload based on the set.method value and not
independently as set.upload, we reduce confusion and mixup risks, both

- 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

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
- 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.

Instances of ISSPACE() use that should rather use ISBLANK(). I think
somewhat carelessly used because it sounds as if it checks for space or
whitespace, but also includes %0a to %0d.
For parsing purposes, we should only accept what we must and not be

- When done, if an error has already occurred then don't check the
sequence numbers for mismatch.
A sequence number may not have been received if an error occurred.
Prior to this change a sequence mismatch error would override earlier
errors. For example, a server that returns nothing would cause error
CURLE_GOT_NOTHING in Curl_http_done which was then overridden by
CURLE_RTSP_CSEQ_ERROR in rtsp_done.
Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/8525
- the data needs to be "line-based" anyway since it's also passed to the
debug callback/application
- it makes infof() work like failf() and consistency is good
- there's an assert that triggers on newlines in the format string
- Also removes a few instances of "..."
- Removes the code that would append "..." to the end of the data *iff*
it was truncated in infof()
Closes#7357
The libssh2 backend has SSH session associated with the connection but
the callback context is the easy handle, so when a connection gets
attached to a transfer, the protocol handler now allows for a custom
function to get used to set things up correctly.
