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
It's actually been this way since at least 2012 (when a 3-argument open
was added to runtests.pl). Given the lack of complaints in the interim,
it's safe to call this 23 year old perl version the minimum.
The explanatory parts are now in the everything curl book (which can
also use images etc). This document now refers to that resource and only
leaves listings of supported versions of libs, tools and operating
systems. See https://everything.curl.dev/internalsCloses#8467
The tools.ietf.org domain has been deprecated a while now, with the
links being redirected to datatracker.ietf.org.
Rather than make people eat that redirect time, this change switches the
URL to a more canonical source.
Closes#8317
This adds the I/O prefix to indicate that those "actions" are kind-of
related to those found in select(2) or poll(2) (reading/writing).
It also adds a note where the prototypes of those functions can be found
in the source code.
Closes#7092
We currently use both spellings the british "behaviour" and the american
"behavior". However "behavior" is more used in the project so I think
it's worth dropping the british name.
Closes#6395
The function has been removed from common usage. Also removed comment in
gopher.c that still referenced it.

Fixes#6242Closes#6243
These two files were always tightly connected and it was hard to
understand what went into which. This also allows us to make the
ftpsend() function static (moved from ftp.c).
Removed security.c
Renamed curl_sec.h to krb5.h
Closes#5987
IPv6, telnet and now also the multi API require WinSock
version 2 which is available starting with Windows 95.
Therefore we think it is time to drop support for version 1.

GnuTLS 3.1.10 added new functions we want to use. That version was
released on Mar 22, 2013. Removing support for older versions also
greatly simplifies the code.
Ref: #5271Closes#5276
To simplify our code and since earlier versions lack important function
calls libcurl needs to function correctly.
nghttp2 1.12.0 was relased on June 26, 2016.

Remove support for, references to and use of "cyaSSL" from the source
and docs. wolfSSL is the current name and there's no point in keeping
references to ancient history.

Closes#3903
Kerberos was incorrectly indented as a subsection under FTP, which is
incorrect as they are both top level sections. A fix for this was first
attempted in commit fef38a0898 but that
was a few paddles short of being complete.
Add the subsections under "Structs in libcurl" to the table of contents.

This uses the brotli external library (https://github.com/google/brotli).
Brotli becomes a feature: additional curl_version_info() bit and
structure fields are provided for it and CURLVERSION_NOW bumped.
Tests 314 and 315 check Brotli content unencoding with correct and
erroneous data.
Some tests are updated to accomodate with the now configuration dependent
parameters of the Accept-Encoding header.
This is implemented as an output streaming stack of unencoders, the last
calling the client write procedure.
New test 230 checks this feature.
