New connection filter `cf-dns` that manages DNS queries. If hands
out addresses and HTTPS-RR records to anyone interested. Used by
HTTPS and IP happy eyeballing.
Information may become available *before* the libcurl "dns entry"
is complete, e.g. all queries have been answered. The cf-ip-happy
filter uses this information to start connection attempts as soon
as the first address is available.
The multi MSTATE_RESOLVING was removed. A new connection always
goes to MSTATE_CONNECTING. The connectdata bit `dns_resolved`
indicates when DNS information is complete. This is used for
error reporting and starting the progress meter.
Removed dns entries `data->state.dns[i]`, as the `cf-dns` filter
now keeps the reference now.
Many minor tweaks for making this work and pass address information
around safely.
Closes#21027
When the compiler supports C99.
- map logging functions to macro stubs when verbose logging is disabled
and the compiler is C99. Make sure these stubs silence unused variable
warnings for non-variadic arguments.
Before this patch they mapped to function stubs, the same codepath
used for C89 compiler in this configuration.
- introduce new macros to tell the compiler which code to include
when verbose code is active, or inactive:
- `CURLVERBOSE`: defined when verbose code is active.
To enclose blocks of code only used for verbose logging.
- `VERBOSE(statement);`:
compile statement when verbose code is active.
To mark code lines only used for verbose logging.
- `NOVERBOSE(statement);`:
compile statement when verbose code is inactive.
To suppress warnings for arguments passed to logging functions via
printf masks, e.g. `NOVERBOSE((void)ipaddress);`, yet keeping
the warning in verbose builds.
Note these macros are not the same as `CURL_DISABLE_VERBOSE_STRINGS`.
Verbose code is always active in C89 mode (without variadic macro
support).
- drop existing uses of `CURL_DISABLE_VERBOSE_STRINGS` where redundant,
or replace with the above macros. Ending up reducing the number of
`#ifdef`s, and also the number of lines.

When checking a transfer for being expired via `Curl_timeleft_ms()`,
eleminate the `bool connecting` parameter and have the function check
the `mstate` of the transfer instead.
Advantages:
* eleminate the caller needing awareness if the transfer is
connecting or in a later state
* fix pingpong timeout handling to check the correct timeout
during "proto_connect" phases
* avoid using "connecting" timeouts during establishing a secondary
connection (e.g. FTP) since this would use the timestamp from
the original, primary connect and thus be wrong

Use `data->progress.now` as the timestamp of proecssing a transfer.
Update it on significant events and refrain from calling `curlx_now()`
in many places.
The problem this addresses is
a) calling curlx_now() has costs, depending on platform. Calling it
every time results in 25% increase `./runtest` duration on macOS.
b) we used to pass a `struct curltime *` around to save on calls, but
when some method directly use `curx_now()` and some use the passed
pointer, the transfer experienes non-linear time. This results in
timeline checks to report events in the wrong order.
By keeping a timestamp in the easy handle and updating it there, no
longer invoking `curlx_now()` in the "lower" methods, the transfer
can observer a steady clock progression.

Make `port` member in these struct of type `uint16_t`.

successful connection, it is clear when the ip_quadruple members are
valid. Also, for transports not involving ports, the getinfos for
`CURLINFO_PRIMARY_PORT` and `CURLINFO_LOCAL_PORT` will now always return
-1.

When `CURLOPT_HAPPY_EYEBALLS_TIMEOUT_MS` expires, start the next ip
connect attempt, but keep all ongoing attempts alive.
Separate happy-eyeballs connection filter into own source files.
Closes#18105
The `struct Curl_dns_entry *` used to established a connection
do not have the connection's lifetime, but the transfer's lifetime
(of the transfer that initiates the connect).
`Curl_dns_entry *` is reference counted with the "dns cache". That
cache might be owned by the multi or the transfer's share. In the
share, the reference count needs updating under lock.
Therefore, the dns entry can only be kept *and* released using the
same transfer it was initially looked up from. But a connection is
often discarded using another transfer.
So far, the problem of this has been avoided in clearing the connection's
dns entries in the "multi_don()" handling. So, connections had NULL
dns entries after the initial transfers and its connect had been handled.
Keeping the dns entries in data->state seems therefore a better choice.
Also: remove the `struct Curl_dns_entry *` from the connect filters
contexts. Use `data->state.dns` every time instead and fail correctly
when not present and needed.
Closes#17383
Move curlx_ functions into its own subdir.
The idea is to use the curlx_ prefix proper on these functions, and use
these same function names both in tool, lib and test suite source code.
Stop the previous special #define setup for curlx_ names.
The printf defines are now done for the library alone. Tests no longer
use the printf defines. The tool code sets its own defines. The printf
functions are not curlx, they are publicly available.
The strcase defines are not curlx_ functions and should not be used by
tool or server code.
dynbuf, warnless, base64, strparse, timeval, timediff are now proper
curlx functions.
When libcurl is built statically, the functions from the library can be
used as-is. The key is then that the functions must work as-is, without
having to be recompiled for use in tool/tests. This avoids symbol
collisions - when libcurl is built statically, we use those functions
directly when building the tool/tests. When libcurl is shared, we
build/link them separately for the tool/tests.

Closes#17253
Further testing with timeouts in event based processing revealed that
our current shutdown handling in the connection pool was not clear
enough. Graceful shutdowns can only happen inside a multi handle and it
was confusing to track in the code which situation actually applies. It
seems better to split the shutdown handling off and have that code
always be part of a multi handle.
Add `cshutdn.[ch]` with its own struct to maintain connections being
shut down. A `cshutdn` always belongs to a multi handle and uses that
for socket/timeout monitoring.
The `cpool`, which can be part of a multi or share, either passes
connections to a `cshutdn` or terminates them with a one-time, best
effort.
Add an `admin` easy handle to each multi and share. This is used to
perform all maintenance operations where no "real" easy handle is
available. This solves the problem that the multi admin handle requires
some additional initialisation (e.g. timeout list).
The share needs its admin handle as it is often cleaned up when no other
transfer or multi handle exists any more. But we need a `data` in almost
every call.
Fix file:// handling of errors when adding a new connection to the pool.
Changes in `curl` itself:
- for parallel transfers, do not set a connection pool in the share,
rely on the multi's connection pool instead. While not a requirement
for the new `cshutdn` to work, this is
a) helpful in testing to trigger graceful shutdowns
b) a broader code coverage of libcurl via the curl tool
- on test_event with uv, cleanup the multi handle before returning from
parallel_event(). The uv struct is on the stack, cleanup of the multi
later will crash when it tries to register sockets. This is a "eat
your own dogfood" related fix.

Update IP related information at the connection and the transfer in two
places only: once the filter chain connects and when a transfer is added
to a connection. The latter only updates on reuse when the filters
already are connected.
The only user of that information before a full connect is the HAProxy
filter. Add cfilter CF_QUERY_IP_INFO query to let it find the
information from the filters "below".
This solves two issues with the previous version:
- updates where often done twice with the same info
- happy eyeballing filter "forks" could overwrite each others
updates before the full winner was determined.
Closes#14699
connections being shutdown would register sockets for events, but then
never remove these sockets again. Nor would the shutdown effectively
been performed.
- If a socket event involves a transfer, check if that is the
connection cache internal handle and run its multi_perform()
instead (the internal handle is used for all shutdowns).
- When a timer triggers for a transfer, check also if it is
about the connection cache internal handle.
- During processing shutdowns in the connection cache, assess
the shutdown timeouts. Register a Curl_expire() of the lowest
value for the cache's internal handle.

This adds connection shutdown infrastructure and first use for FTP. FTP
data connections, when not encountering an error, are now shut down in a
blocking way with a 2sec timeout.
- add cfilter `Curl_cft_shutdown` callback
- keep a shutdown start timestamp and timeout at connectdata
- provide shutdown timeout default and member in
`data->set.shutdowntimeout`.
- provide methods for starting, interrogating and clearing
shutdown timers
- provide `Curl_conn_shutdown_blocking()` to shutdown the
`sockindex` filter chain in a blocking way. Use that in FTP.
- add `Curl_conn_cf_poll()` to wait for socket events during
shutdown of a connection filter chain.
This gets the monitoring sockets and events via the filters
"adjust_pollset()" methods. This gives correct behaviour when
shutting down a TLS connection through a HTTP/2 proxy.
- Implement shutdown for all socket filters
- for HTTP/2 and h2 proxying to send GOAWAY

New cfilter HTTP-CONNECT for h3/h2/http1.1 eyeballing.
- filter is installed when `--http3` in the tool is used (or
the equivalent CURLOPT_ done in the library)
- starts a QUIC/HTTP/3 connect right away. Should that not
succeed after 100ms (subject to change), a parallel attempt
is started for HTTP/2 and HTTP/1.1 via TCP
- both attempts are subject to IPv6/IPv4 eyeballing, same
as happens for other connections
- tie timeout to the ip-version HAPPY_EYEBALLS_TIMEOUT
- use a `soft` timeout at half the value. When the soft timeout
expires, the HTTPS-CONNECT filter checks if the QUIC filter
has received any data from the server. If not, it will start
the HTTP/2 attempt.
HTTP/3(ngtcp2) improvements.
- setting call_data in all cfilter calls similar to http/2 and vtls filters
for use in callback where no stream data is available.
- returning CURLE_PARTIAL_FILE for prematurely terminated transfers
- enabling pytest test_05 for h3
- shifting functionality to "connect" UDP sockets from ngtcp2
implementation into the udp socket cfilter. Because unconnected
UDP sockets are weird. For example they error when adding to a
pollset.
HTTP/3(quiche) improvements.
- fixed upload bug in quiche implementation, now passes 251 and pytest
- error codes on stream RESET
- improved debug logs
- handling of DRAIN during connect
- limiting pending event queue
HTTP/2 cfilter improvements.
- use LOG_CF macros for dynamic logging in debug build
- fix CURLcode on RST streams to be CURLE_PARTIAL_FILE
- enable pytest test_05 for h2
- fix upload pytests and improve parallel transfer performance.
GOAWAY handling for ngtcp2/quiche
- during connect, when the remote server refuses to accept new connections
and closes immediately (so the local conn goes into DRAIN phase), the
connection is torn down and a another attempt is made after a short grace
period.
This is the behaviour observed with nghttpx when we tell it to shut
down gracefully. Tested in pytest test_03_02.
TLS improvements

Improvements on gathering connect statistics and socket access.
- new CF_CTRL_CONN_REPORT_STATS cfilter control for having cfilters
report connection statistics. This is triggered when the connection
has completely connected.
- new void Curl_pgrsTimeWas(..) method to report a timer update with
a timestamp of when it happend. This allows for updating timers
"later", e.g. a connect statistic after full connectivity has been
reached.
- in case of HTTP eyeballing, the previous changes will update
statistics only from the filter chain that "won" the eyeballing.
- new cfilter query CF_QUERY_SOCKET for retrieving the socket used
by a filter chain.
Added methods Curl_conn_cf_get_socket() and Curl_conn_get_socket()
for convenient use of this query.
- Change VTLS backend to query their sub-filters for the socket when
checks during the handshake are made.

... in most cases instead of 'struct connectdata *' but in some cases in
addition to.
- We mostly operate on transfers and not connections.
- We need the transfer handle to log, store data and more. Everything in
libcurl is driven by a transfer (the CURL * in the public API).
- This work clarifies and separates the transfers from the connections
better.
- We should avoid "conn->data". Since individual connections can be used
by many transfers when multiplexing, making sure that conn->data
points to the current and correct transfer at all times is difficult
and has been notoriously error-prone over the years. The goal is to
ultimately remove the conn->data pointer for this reason.
