as of 2023-11-29 [1].
Enable new recommended warnings (except `-Wsign-conversion`):
- enable `-Wformat=2` for clang (in both cmake and autotools).
- add `CURL_PRINTF()` internal attribute and mark functions accepting
printf arguments with it. This is a copy of existing
`CURL_TEMP_PRINTF()` but using `__printf__` to make it compatible
with redefinting the `printf` symbol:
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-3.0.4/gcc_5.html#SEC94
- fix `CURL_PRINTF()` and existing `CURL_TEMP_PRINTF()` for
mingw-w64 and enable it on this platform.
- enable `-Wimplicit-fallthrough`.
- enable `-Wtrampolines`.
- add `-Wsign-conversion` commented with a FIXME.
- cmake: enable `-pedantic-errors` the way we do it with autotools.
Follow-up to d5c0351055#2747
- lib/curl_trc.h: use `CURL_FORMAT()`, this also fixes it to enable format
checks. Previously it was always disabled due to the internal `printf`
macro.
Fix them:
- fix bug where an `set_ipv6_v6only()` call was missed in builds with
`--disable-verbose` / `CURL_DISABLE_VERBOSE_STRINGS=ON`.
- add internal `FALLTHROUGH()` macro.
- replace obsolete fall-through comments with `FALLTHROUGH()`.
- fix fallthrough markups: Delete redundant ones (showing up as
warnings in most cases). Add missing ones. Fix indentation.
- silence `-Wformat-nonliteral` warnings with llvm/clang.
- fix one `-Wformat-nonliteral` warning.
- fix new `-Wformat` and `-Wformat-security` warnings.
- fix `CURL_FORMAT_SOCKET_T` value for mingw-w64. Also move its
definition to `lib/curl_setup.h` allowing use in `tests/server`.
- lib: fix two wrongly passed string arguments in log outputs.

- fix new `-Wformat` warnings on mingw-w64.

- they are mostly pointless in all major jurisdictions
- many big corporations and projects already don't use them
- saves us from pointless churn
- git keeps history for us
- the year range is kept in COPYING
checksrc is updated to allow non-year using copyright statements
Closes#10205
The example program chkspeed uses strncasecmp() which is not portable
across systems. Replace calls to this function by tests on characters.
Closes#9562
Add licensing and copyright information for all files in this repository. This
either happens in the file itself as a comment header or in the file
`.reuse/dep5`.
This commit also adds a Github workflow to check pull requests and adapts
copyright.pl to the changes.
Closes#8869
Provide a set of new timers that return the time intervals using integer
number of microseconds instead of floats.
The new info names are as following:
CURLINFO_APPCONNECT_TIME_T
CURLINFO_CONNECT_TIME_T
CURLINFO_NAMELOOKUP_TIME_T
CURLINFO_PRETRANSFER_TIME_T
CURLINFO_REDIRECT_TIME_T
CURLINFO_STARTTRANSFER_TIME_T
CURLINFO_TOTAL_TIME_T
Closes#2495
All plain C examples now (mostly) adhere to the curl code style. While
they are only examples, they had diverted so much and contained all
sorts of different mixed code styles by now. Having them use a unified
style helps users and readability. Also, as they get copy-and-pasted
widely by users, making sure they're clean and nice is a good idea.
573 checksrc warnings were addressed.
All C and H files now (should) feature the proper project curl source
code header, which includes basic info, a copyright statement and some
basic disclaimers.
