Jay Satiro a268ad5d7e multi: Improve parameter check for curl_multi_remove_handle 
- If an easy handle is owned by a multi different from the one specified
  then return CURLM_BAD_EASY_HANDLE.

Prior to this change I assume user error could cause corruption.

.SH NAME
libcurl-errors \- error codes in libcurl
.SH DESCRIPTION
This man page includes most, if not all, available error codes in libcurl.
Why they occur and possibly what you can do to fix the problem are also included.
.SH "CURLcode"
Almost all "easy" interface functions return a CURLcode error code. No matter
what, using the \fIcurl_easy_setopt(3)\fP option \fICURLOPT_ERRORBUFFER(3)\fP
is a good idea as it will give you a human readable error string that may
offer more details about the cause of the error than just the error code.
\fIcurl_easy_strerror(3)\fP can be called to get an error string from a given
CURLcode number.
CURLcode is one of the following:
.IP "CURLE_OK (0)"
All fine. Proceed as usual.
.IP "CURLE_UNSUPPORTED_PROTOCOL (1)"
The URL you passed to libcurl used a protocol that this libcurl does not
support. The support might be a compile-time option that you didn't use, it
can be a misspelled protocol string or just a protocol libcurl has no code
for.
.IP "CURLE_FAILED_INIT (2)"
Very early initialization code failed. This is likely to be an internal error
or problem, or a resource problem where something fundamental couldn't get
done at init time.
.IP "CURLE_URL_MALFORMAT (3)"
The URL was not properly formatted.
.IP "CURLE_NOT_BUILT_IN (4)"
A requested feature, protocol or option was not found built-in in this libcurl
due to a build-time decision. This means that a feature or option was not
enabled or explicitly disabled when libcurl was built and in order to get it
to function you have to get a rebuilt libcurl.
.IP "CURLE_COULDNT_RESOLVE_PROXY (5)"
Couldn't resolve proxy. The given proxy host could not be resolved.
.IP "CURLE_COULDNT_RESOLVE_HOST (6)"
Couldn't resolve host. The given remote host was not resolved.
.IP "CURLE_COULDNT_CONNECT (7)"
Failed to connect() to host or proxy.
.IP "CURLE_WEIRD_SERVER_REPLY (8)"
The server sent data libcurl couldn't parse. This error code was known as as
\fICURLE_FTP_WEIRD_SERVER_REPLY\fP before 7.51.0.
.IP "CURLE_REMOTE_ACCESS_DENIED (9)"
We were denied access to the resource given in the URL. For FTP, this occurs
while trying to change to the remote directory.
.IP "CURLE_FTP_ACCEPT_FAILED (10)"
While waiting for the server to connect back when an active FTP session is
used, an error code was sent over the control connection or similar.
.IP "CURLE_FTP_WEIRD_PASS_REPLY (11)"
After having sent the FTP password to the server, libcurl expects a proper
reply. This error code indicates that an unexpected code was returned.
.IP "CURLE_FTP_ACCEPT_TIMEOUT (12)"
During an active FTP session while waiting for the server to connect, the
\fICURLOPT_ACCEPTTIMEOUT_MS(3)\fP (or the internal default) timeout expired.
.IP "CURLE_FTP_WEIRD_PASV_REPLY (13)"
libcurl failed to get a sensible result back from the server as a response to
either a PASV or a EPSV command. The server is flawed.
.IP "CURLE_FTP_WEIRD_227_FORMAT (14)"
FTP servers return a 227-line as a response to a PASV command. If libcurl
fails to parse that line, this return code is passed back.
.IP "CURLE_FTP_CANT_GET_HOST (15)"
An internal failure to lookup the host used for the new connection.
.IP "CURLE_HTTP2 (16)"
A problem was detected in the HTTP2 framing layer. This is somewhat generic
and can be one out of several problems, see the error buffer for details.
.IP "CURLE_FTP_COULDNT_SET_TYPE (17)"
Received an error when trying to set the transfer mode to binary or ASCII.
.IP "CURLE_PARTIAL_FILE (18)"
A file transfer was shorter or larger than expected. This happens when the
server first reports an expected transfer size, and then delivers data that
doesn't match the previously given size.
.IP "CURLE_FTP_COULDNT_RETR_FILE (19)"
This was either a weird reply to a 'RETR' command or a zero byte transfer
complete.
.IP "CURLE_QUOTE_ERROR (21)"
When sending custom "QUOTE" commands to the remote server, one of the commands
returned an error code that was 400 or higher (for FTP) or otherwise
indicated unsuccessful completion of the command.
.IP "CURLE_HTTP_RETURNED_ERROR (22)"
This is returned if \fICURLOPT_FAILONERROR(3)\fP is set TRUE and the HTTP
server returns an error code that is >= 400.
.IP "CURLE_WRITE_ERROR (23)"
An error occurred when writing received data to a local file, or an error was
returned to libcurl from a write callback.
.IP "CURLE_UPLOAD_FAILED (25)"
Failed starting the upload. For FTP, the server typically denied the STOR
command. The error buffer usually contains the server's explanation for this.
.IP "CURLE_READ_ERROR (26)"
There was a problem reading a local file or an error returned by the read
callback.
.IP "CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY (27)"
A memory allocation request failed. This is serious badness and
things are severely screwed up if this ever occurs.
.IP "CURLE_OPERATION_TIMEDOUT (28)"
Operation timeout. The specified time-out period was reached according to the
conditions.
.IP "CURLE_FTP_PORT_FAILED (30)"
The FTP PORT command returned error. This mostly happens when you haven't
specified a good enough address for libcurl to use. See
\fICURLOPT_FTPPORT(3)\fP.
.IP "CURLE_FTP_COULDNT_USE_REST (31)"
The FTP REST command returned error. This should never happen if the server is
sane.
.IP "CURLE_RANGE_ERROR (33)"
The server does not support or accept range requests.
.IP "CURLE_HTTP_POST_ERROR (34)"
This is an odd error that mainly occurs due to internal confusion.
.IP "CURLE_SSL_CONNECT_ERROR (35)"
A problem occurred somewhere in the SSL/TLS handshake. You really want the
error buffer and read the message there as it pinpoints the problem slightly
more. Could be certificates (file formats, paths, permissions), passwords, and
others.
.IP "CURLE_BAD_DOWNLOAD_RESUME (36)"
The download could not be resumed because the specified offset was out of the
file boundary.
.IP "CURLE_FILE_COULDNT_READ_FILE (37)"
A file given with FILE:// couldn't be opened. Most likely because the file
path doesn't identify an existing file. Did you check file permissions?
.IP "CURLE_LDAP_CANNOT_BIND (38)"
LDAP cannot bind. LDAP bind operation failed.
.IP "CURLE_LDAP_SEARCH_FAILED (39)"
LDAP search failed.
.IP "CURLE_FUNCTION_NOT_FOUND (41)"
Function not found. A required zlib function was not found.
.IP "CURLE_ABORTED_BY_CALLBACK (42)"
Aborted by callback. A callback returned "abort" to libcurl.
.IP "CURLE_BAD_FUNCTION_ARGUMENT (43)"
A function was called with a bad parameter.
.IP "CURLE_INTERFACE_FAILED (45)"
Interface error. A specified outgoing interface could not be used. Set which
interface to use for outgoing connections' source IP address with
\fICURLOPT_INTERFACE(3)\fP.
.IP "CURLE_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS (47)"
Too many redirects. When following redirects, libcurl hit the maximum amount.
Set your limit with \fICURLOPT_MAXREDIRS(3)\fP.
.IP "CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION (48)"
An option passed to libcurl is not recognized/known. Refer to the appropriate
documentation. This is most likely a problem in the program that uses
libcurl. The error buffer might contain more specific information about which
exact option it concerns.
.IP "CURLE_TELNET_OPTION_SYNTAX (49)"
A telnet option string was Illegally formatted.
.IP "CURLE_GOT_NOTHING (52)"
Nothing was returned from the server, and under the circumstances, getting
nothing is considered an error.
.IP "CURLE_SSL_ENGINE_NOTFOUND (53)"
The specified crypto engine wasn't found.
.IP "CURLE_SSL_ENGINE_SETFAILED (54)"
Failed setting the selected SSL crypto engine as default!
.IP "CURLE_SEND_ERROR (55)"
Failed sending network data.
.IP "CURLE_RECV_ERROR (56)"
Failure with receiving network data.
.IP "CURLE_SSL_CERTPROBLEM (58)"
problem with the local client certificate.
.IP "CURLE_SSL_CIPHER (59)"
Couldn't use specified cipher.
.IP "CURLE_PEER_FAILED_VERIFICATION (60)"
The remote server's SSL certificate or SSH md5 fingerprint was deemed not OK.
This error code has been unified with CURLE_SSL_CACERT since 7.62.0. Its
previous value was 51.
.IP "CURLE_BAD_CONTENT_ENCODING (61)"
Unrecognized transfer encoding.
.IP "CURLE_LDAP_INVALID_URL (62)"

These error codes will never be returned. They were used in an old libcurl
version and are currently unused.
.SH "CURLMcode"
This is the generic return code used by functions in the libcurl multi
interface. Also consider \fIcurl_multi_strerror(3)\fP.
.IP "CURLM_CALL_MULTI_PERFORM (-1)"
This is not really an error. It means you should call
\fIcurl_multi_perform(3)\fP again without doing select() or similar in
between. Before version 7.20.0 this could be returned by
\fIcurl_multi_perform(3)\fP, but in later versions this return code is never

Things are fine.
.IP "CURLM_BAD_HANDLE (1)"
The passed-in handle is not a valid CURLM handle.
.IP "CURLM_BAD_EASY_HANDLE (2)"
An easy handle was not good/valid. It could mean that it isn't an easy handle
at all, or possibly that the handle already is in use by this or another multi
handle.
