The keyword specifies how option works when specified multiple times:
- single: the last provided value replaces the earlier ones
- append: it supports being provided multiple times
- boolean: on/off values
- mutex: flag-like option that disable anoter flag
The 'gen.pl' script then outputs the proper and unified language for
each option's multi-use behavior in the generated man page.
The multi: header is requires in each .d file and will cause build error
if missing or set to an unknown value.

"You never needed a pass phrase" reads like it's about to be followed by
something like "until version so-and-so", but that is not what is
intended. Change to "You never need a pass phrase". There are two
instances of this text, so make sure to update both.
curl_ws_recv() now receives data to fill up the provided buffer, but can
return a partial fragment. The function now also get a pointer to a
curl_ws_frame struct with metadata that also mentions the offset and
total size of the fragment (of which you might be receiving a smaller
piece). This way, large incoming fragments will be "streamed" to the
application. When the curl_ws_frame struct field 'bytesleft' is 0, the
final fragment piece has been delivered.
curl_ws_recv() was also adjusted to work with a buffer size smaller than
the fragment size. (Possibly needless to say as the fragment size can
now be 63 bit large).
curl_ws_send() now supports sending a piece of a fragment, in a
streaming manner, in addition to sending the entire fragment in a single
call if it is small enough. To send a huge fragment, curl_ws_send() can
be used to send it in many small calls by first telling libcurl about
the total expected fragment size, and then send the payload in N number
of separate invokes and libcurl will stream those over the wire.
The struct curl_ws_meta() returns is now called 'curl_ws_frame' and it
has been extended with two new fields: *offset* and *bytesleft*. To help
describe the passed on data chunk when a fragment is delivered in many
smaller pieces.
The documentation has been updated accordingly.

Closes#9654
After this patch, we reduce the three copies of most `Makefile.m32`
logic to one. This now resides in `lib/Makefile.m32`. It makes future
updates easier, the code shorter, with a small amount of added
complexity.
`Makefile.m32` reduction:
| | bytes | LOC total | blank | comment | code |
|-------------------|-------:|----------:|-------:|---------:|------:|
| 7.85.0 | 34772 | 1337 | 79 | 192 | 1066 |
| before this patch | 17601 | 625 | 62 | 106 | 457 |
| after this patch | 11680 | 392 | 52 | 104 | 236 |
Details:
- Change rules to create objects for the `v*` subdirs in the `lib` dir.
This allows to use a shared compile rule and assumes that filenames
are not (and will not be) colliding across these directories.
`Makefile.m32` now also stores a list of these subdirs. They are
changing rarely though.
- Sync as much as possible between the three `Makefile.m32` scripts'
rules and their source/target sections.
- After this patch `CPPFLAGS` are all applied to the `src` sources once
again. This matches the behaviour of cmake/autotools. Only zlib ones
are actually required there.
- Use `.rc` names from `Makefile.inc` instead of keeping a duplicate.
- Change examples to link `libcurl.dll` by default. This makes building
trivial, even as a cross-build:
`CC=x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc make -f Makefile.m32`
To run them, you need to move/copy or add-to-path `libcurl.dll`.
You can select static mode via `CFG=-static`.
- List more of the `Makefile.m32` config variables.
- Drop `.rc` support from examples. It made it fragile without much
benefit.
- Include a necessary system lib for the `externalsocket.c` example.
- Exclude unnecessary systems libs when building in `-dyn` mode.
Closes#9642
This patch overhauls `Makefile.m32` scripts, fixing a list of quirks,
making its behaviour and customization envvars align better with other
build systems, aiming for less code, that is easier to read, use and
maintain.
Details:
- Rename customization envvars:
`CURL_CC` -> `CC`
`CURL_RC` -> `RC`
`CURL_AR` -> `AR`
`CURL_LDFLAG_EXTRAS_DLL` -> `CURL_LDFLAGS_LIB`
`CURL_LDFLAG_EXTRAS_EXE` -> `CURL_LDFLAGS_BIN`
- Drop `CURL_STRIP` and `CURL_RANLIB`. These tools are no longer used.
- Accept `CFLAGS`, `CPPFLAGS`, `RCFLAGS`, `LDFLAGS` and `LIBS` envvars.
- Drop `CURL_CFLAG_EXTRAS`, `CURL_LDFLAG_EXTRAS`, `CURL_RCFLAG_EXTRAS` in
favor of the above.
- Do not automatically enable `zlib` with `libssh2`. `zlib` is optional
with `libssh2`.
- Omit unnecessary `CPPFLAGS` options when building `curl.exe` and
examples.
- Drop support for deprecated `-winssl` `CFG` option. Use `-schannel`
instead.
- Avoid late evaluation where not necessary (`=` -> `:=`).
- Drop support for `CURL_DLL_A_SUFFIX` to override the implib suffix.
Instead, use the standard naming scheme by default: `libcurl.dll.a`.
The toolchain recognizes the name, and selects it automatically when
asking for a `-shared` vs. `-static` build.
- Stop applying `strip` to `libcurl.a`. Follow-up from
16a58e9f93. There was no debug info to
strip since then.
- Stop setting `-O3`, `-W`, `-Wall` options. You can add these to
`CFLAGS` as desired.
- Always enable `-DCURL_DISABLE_OPENSSL_AUTO_LOAD_CONFIG` with OpenSSL,
to avoid that vulnerability on Windows.
- Add `-lbrotlicommon` to `LIBS` when using `brotli`.
- Do not enable `-nghttp3` without `-ngtcp2`.
- `-ssh2` and `-rtmp` options no longer try to auto-select a TLS-backend.
You need to set the backend explicitly. This scales better and avoids
issues with certain combinations (e.g. `libssh2` + `wolfssl` with no
`schannel`).
- Default to OpenSSL TLS-backend with `ngtcp2`. Possible to override via
`NGTCP2_LIBS`.
- Old, alternate method of enabling components (e.g. `SSH2=1`) no longer
supported.
- Delete `SPNEGO` references. They were no-ops.
- Drop support for Win9x environments.
- Allow setting `OPENSSL_LIBS` independently from `OPENSSL_LIBPATH`.
- Support autotools/CMake `libssh2` builds by default.
- Respect `CURL_DLL_SUFFIX` in `-dyn` mode when building `curl.exe` and
examples.
- Assume standard directory layout with `LIBCARES_PATH`. (Instead of the
long gone embedded one.)
- Stop static linking with c-ares by default. Add
`CPPFLAGS=-DCARES_STATICLIB` to enable it.
- Reorganize internal layout to avoid redundancy and emit clean diffs
between src/lib and example make files.
- Delete unused variables.
- Code cleanups/rework.
- Comment and indentation fixes.
Closes#9632
- Drop auto-detection of OpenSSL 1.0.2 and earlier. Now always defaulting
to OpenSSL 1.1.0 and later, LibreSSL and BoringSSL.
- Drop `Invalid path to OpenSSL package` detection. OpenSSL has been
using a standard file layout since 1.1.0, so this seems unnecessary
now.
- Drop special logic to enable Novell LDAP SDK support.
- Drop special logic to enable OpenLDAP LDAP SDK support. This seems
to be distinct from native OpenLDAP, with support implemented inside
`lib/ldap.c` (vs. `lib/openldap.c`) back when the latter did not exist
yet in curl.
- Add `-lwldap32` only if there is no other LDAP library (either native
OpenLDAP, or SDKs above) present.
- Update `doc/INSTALL.md` accordingly.
After this patch, it's necessary to make configration changes when using
OpenSSL 1.0.2 or earlier, or the two LDAP SDKs.
OpenSSL 1.0.2 and earlier:
```
export OPENSSL_INCLUDE = <path-to-openssl>/outinc
export OPENSSL_LIBPATH = <path-to-openssl>/out
export OPENSSL_LIBS = -lssl32 -leay32 -lgdi32
```
Novell LDAP SDK, previously enabled via `USE_LDAP_NOVELL=1`:
```
export CURL_CFLAG_EXTRAS = -I<path-to-sdk>/inc -DCURL_HAS_NOVELL_LDAPSDK
export CURL_LDFLAG_EXTRAS = -L<path-to-sdk>/lib/mscvc -lldapsdk -lldapssl -lldapx
```
OpenLDAP LDAP SDK, previously enabled via `USE_LDAP_OPENLDAP=1`:
```
export CURL_CFLAG_EXTRAS = -I<path-to-sdk>/include -DCURL_HAS_OPENLDAP_LDAPSDK
export CURL_LDFLAG_EXTRAS = -L<path-to-sdk>/lib -lldap -llber
```
I haven't tested these scenarios, and in general we recommend using
a recent OpenSSL release. Also, WinLDAP (the Windows default) and
OpenLDAP (via `-DUSE_OPENLDAP`) are the LDAP options actively worked on
in curl.
Closes#9631

Next Protocol Negotiation is a TLS extension that was created and used
for agreeing to use the SPDY protocol (the precursor to HTTP/2) for
HTTPS. In the early days of HTTP/2, before the spec was finalized and
shipped, the protocol could be enabled using this extension with some
servers.
curl supports the NPN extension with some TLS backends since then, with
a command line option `--npn` and in libcurl with
`CURLOPT_SSL_ENABLE_NPN`.
HTTP/2 proper is made to use the ALPN (Application-Layer Protocol
Negotiation) extension and the NPN extension has no purposes
anymore. The HTTP/2 spec was published in May 2015.
Today, use of NPN in the wild should be extremely rare and most likely
totally extinct. Chrome removed NPN support in Chrome 51, shipped in
June 2016. Removed in Firefox 53, April 2017.
Closes#9307
Lintian (on Debian) has been complaining about this for a while but
I didn't bother initially as the groff parser that we use is not
affected by this.
But I have now noticed that the online manpage is affected by it:
https://curl.se/libcurl/c/CURLOPT_WILDCARDMATCH.html
(I'm using double quotes for quoting-only down below)
The section that should be parsed as "'\'" ends up being parsed as
"'´".
This is due to roffit not parsing "'\\'" correctly, which is fine
as the "correct" way of writing "'\'" is "'\e'" instead.
Note that this fix is not enough to fix the online manpage at
curl's website, as roffit seems to parse it wrongly either way.
My intent is to at least fix the manpage so that roffit can
be changed to parse "'\e'" correctly (although I suggest making
roffit parse both ways correctly, since that's what groff does).

Before this patch `-nghttp3`/`-ngtcp2` had an effect only when `-ssl`
was also enabled. `-ssl` meaning OpenSSL (and its forks). After
8a13be227e nghttp3/ngtcp2 can also be
used together with wolfSSL. This patch adds the ability to enable
`-nghttp3`/`-ngtcp2` independently from `-ssl` (OpenSSL), allowing to
use it with wolfSSL or other, future TLS backends.
Before this patch, it was fine to enable `-nghttp3`/`-ngtcp2`
unconditionally. After this patch, this is no longer the case, and now
it's the user's responsibility to enable `-nghttp3`/`-ngtcp2` only
together with a compatible TLS backend.
When using a TLS backend other than OpenSSL, the TLS-specific ngtcp2
library must be configured manually, e.g.:
`export CURL_LDFLAG_EXTRAS=-lngtcp2_crypto_wolfssl`
(or via `NGTCP2_LIBS`)
Closes#9314

The example was missing a "--form" argument
I also replaced "--form" with "-F" to shorten the line a bit since it

the mistake in the example).

This commit adds the dns category to the --resolve command line option,
because it can be interpreted as both: a low-level connection option and

On some systems, the gen.pl script takes nearly two minutes for the
generation of the main-page, which is a completely unacceptable time.
The slow performance has two causes:
1. Use of a regex locale operator
2. Useless invokations of loops
The commit addresses the first issue by replacing the "\W" wiht
[^a-zA-Z0-9_], which is, according to regex101.com, functionally
equivalent to the previous operation, except that it is obviously
limited to ASCII only, which is fine, as the curl project is
English-only anyway.
The second issue is being addressed by only running the loop if the line
contains a "--" in it. The loop may be completeley removed in the
future.

- Use the Windows API to seed the fallback random generator.
This ensures to always have a random seed, even when libcurl is built
with a vtls backend lacking a random generator API, such as rustls
(experimental), GSKit and certain mbedTLS builds, or, when libcurl is
built without a TLS backend. We reuse the Windows-specific random
function from the Schannel backend.
- Implement support for `BCryptGenRandom()` [1] on Windows, as a
replacement for the deprecated `CryptGenRandom()` [2] function.
It is used as the secure random generator for Schannel, and also to
provide entropy for libcurl's fallback random generator. The new
function is supported on Vista and newer via its `bcrypt.dll`. It is
used automatically when building for supported versions. It also works
in UWP apps (the old function did not).
- Clear entropy buffer before calling the Windows random generator.
This avoids using arbitrary application memory as entropy (with
`CryptGenRandom()`) and makes sure to return in a predictable state
when an API call fails.

Since this [1] commit in 2011, `_WIN32_WINNT` was set fixed to Windows
XP when the `-ipv6` option is selected. Maybe this was added to support
pre-XP Windows versions (?). These days libcurl builds fine for both XP
and post-XP versions with IPv6 support enabled. The relevance of pre-XP
version is also low by now. Other build methods also do not impose such
limitation for a similar configuration. So, drop this hard-wired
`_WIN32_WINNT` limit from `Makefile.m32`, thus building for the default
Windows version set by the compiler. This is Vista for recent MinGW
versions.
Old behaviour can be restored by setting this envvar:

least once per second, even if the connection is paused."
The progress function behavior is more nuanced and the user is better
served reading the progress function doc rather than attempt to explain
it in the curl_easy_pause doc.
The progress function can only be called at least once per second if an
appropriate multi transfer function is called (eg curl_multi_perform) in
that time. For a paused transfer there may not be such a call. Rather
than explain this in detail in the curl_easy_pause doc, rely on the user
reading the CURLOPT_PROGRESSFUNCTION doc.

Referring to Daniel's article [1], making the init function thread-safe
was the last bit to make libcurl thread-safe as a whole. So the name of
the feature may as well be the more concise 'threadsafe', also telling
the story that libcurl is now fully thread-safe, not just its init
function. Chances are high that libcurl wants to remain so in the
future, so there is little likelihood of ever needing any other distinct
`threadsafe-<name>` feature flags.
For consistency we also shorten `CURL_VERSION_THREADSAFE_INIT` to
`CURL_VERSION_THREADSAFE`, update its description and reference libcurl's
thread safety documentation.

The empty left-behind footnote confused the website rendering into
creating a nested emoty list, making the resulting page look quite
odd. Remove and re-order the remaining ones to avoid a gap in the
sequence.

curl is a tool that support many different things, and it doesn't
really seem like our job to tell other what to use (as they might
not have much say in the matter even). Also tidy up wording.

These two options were only ever used for the OpenSSL backend for
versions before 1.1.0. They were never used for other backends and they
are not used with recent OpenSSL versions. They were never used much by
applications.
The defines RANDOM_FILE and EGD_SOCKET can still be set at build-time
for ancient EOL OpenSSL versions.
Closes#8670
The API documentation for the MIME functions specify that the parts
can be set twice, with the last call winning. While true, the user
can set the parts n times for n > 2, reword to specify multiple API
calls instead.

- Windows command prompt doesn't use literal quoting via single quotes.
- Windows command prompt inner double quotes are escaped with a
backslash.
- Windows powershell does use single quotes but curl is not a powershell
script so the arguments may not be passed on correctly.
- Windows powershell inner double quotes seems can be passed to curl if
the outer quotes are double quotes and an escape of backslash-backtick
is used.
Command prompt example:
~~~
getargs -v -d "\"a\""
argv[0]: getargs
argv[1]: -v
argv[2]: -d
argv[3]: "a"

Instead of saying "This option overrides NNN", now say "This option is
mutually exclusive to NNN" in the generated man page ouput, as the
option does not in all cases actually override the others but they are
always mutually exclusive.

Mostly based on recent language decisions from "everything curl":
- remove contractions (isn't => is not)
- *an* HTTP (consistency)
- runtime (no hyphen)
- backend (no hyphen)
- URL is uppercase
