- can be borrowed by transfer during recv-write operation
- needs to be released before borrowing again
- adjustis size to `data->set.buffer_size`
- used in transfer.c readwrite_data()
Closes#12805
Make sure we use \< and \> in markdown all over so that it renders
correctly, on GitHub and elsewhere. cd2nroff now outputs a warning if it
finds an unescaled angle bracket.
Ref: #12854Closes#12869
When setting the CURLOPT_SSLCERT option to a certificate thumprint, it
is required to have a backslash between the "store location", "store
name" and "thumbprint" tokens. These slashes were present in the
previous documentation, but were missed in the transition to markdown
documentation.
Closes#12854
This means words, phrases or things we have decided not to use - words that
are spelled right according to the dictionary but we want to avoid. In the
name of consistency and better documentation.
Closes#12764
curldown is this new file format for libcurl man pages. It is markdown
inspired with differences:
- Each file has a set of leading headers with meta-data
- Supports a small subset of markdown
- Uses .md file extensions for editors/IDE/GitHub to treat them nicely
- Generates man pages very similar to the previous ones
- Generates man pages that still convert nicely to HTML on the website
- Detects and highlights mentions of curl symbols automatically (when
their man page section is specified)
tools:
- cd2nroff: converts from curldown to nroff man page
- nroff2cd: convert an (old) nroff man page to curldown
- cdall: convert many nroff pages to curldown versions
- cd2cd: verifies and updates a curldown to latest curldown
This setup generates .3 versions of all the curldown versions at build time.
CI:
Since the documentation is now technically markdown in the eyes of many
things, the CI runs many more tests and checks on this documentation,
including proselint, link checkers and tests that make sure we capitalize the
first letter after a period...
Closes#12730
- remove use of .BI for code snippet
- stop using .br, just do a blank line
- remove use of .PP
- remove use for .sp
- remove backslash in .IP
- use .IP instead of .TP
Closes#12731
Returns the time, in microseconds, during which this transfer was held
in a waiting queue before it started "for real". A transfer might be put
in a queue if after getting started, it cannot create a new connection
etc due to set conditions and limits imposed by the application.

- Escape inner quotes with two backslashes.
Two backslashes escapes the backslash for the man page and will show as
a single backslash.
eg: "{\\"name\\": \\"daniel\\"}" shows as "{\"name\": \"daniel\"}".
Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/12588
- Add an explanation of the CURL_BLOB_COPY flag to CURLOPT_CAINFO_BLOB
and CURLOPT_PROXY_CAINFO_BLOB docs.
All the other _BLOB option docs already have the same explanation.
Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/12277
Remove the CURL_CA_FALLBACK logic. That build option was added to allow
primarily OpenSSL to use the default paths for loading the CA certs. For
GnuTLS it was instead made to load the "system certs", which is
different and not desirable.
The native CA store loading is now asked for with this option.

Closes#12137
- Warn that the user's debug callback may be called with the handle
parameter set to an internal handle.
Without this warning the user may assume that the only handles their
debug callback receives are the easy handles on which they set
CURLOPT_DEBUGFUNCTION.
This is a follow-up to f8cee8cc which changed DoH handles to inherit
the debug callback function set in the user's easy handle. As a result
those handles are now passed to the user's debug callback function.
Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/12034
Previously it would only stop them from getting started if the size is
known to be too big then.
Update the libcurl and curl docs accordingly.

Closes#11820
At least FreeBSD preserves cwd across makefile lines, so rules
consisting of more than one "cd X; do_something" must be explicitly run
in a subshell to avoid this. This problem caused the Cirrus FreeBSD
build to fail when parallel make jobs were enabled.
- delete completed TODO from `./CMakeLists.txt`.
- convert a C++ comment to C89 in `./CMake/CurlTests.c`.
- delete duplicate EOLs from EOF.
- add missing EOL at EOF.
- delete whitespace at EOL (except from expected test results).
- convert tabs to spaces.
- convert CRLF EOLs to LF in GHA yaml.
- text casing fixes in `./CMakeLists.txt`.
- fix a codespell typo in `packages/OS400/initscript.sh`.
Closes#11772
- Remove the out-of-date SSL backend list supported by
CURLOPT_SSL_CTX_FUNCTION.
It makes more sense to just refer to that document instead of having
a separate list that has to be kept in sync.
Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/11665
We remove support for building curl with gskit.
- This is a niche TLS library, only running on some IBM systems
- no regular curl contributors use this backend
- no CI builds use or verify this backend
- gskit, or the curl adaption for it, lacks many modern TLS features
making it an inferior solution
- build breakages in this code take weeks or more to get detected
- fixing gskit code is mostly done "flying blind"
This removal has been advertized in DEPRECATED in Jan 2, 2023 and it has
been mentioned on the curl-library mailing list.
It could be brought back, this is not a ban. Given proper effort and
will, gskit support is welcome back into the curl TLS backend family.
Closes#11460
