Prior to this patch code used either `HAVE_PTHREAD_H`, or
`HAVE_THREADS_POSIX`, or both, to decide if POSIX Threads support is
present. In effect requiring both to be defined for a consistent build.
Drop detecting and guarding for `pthread.h`, and assume it present when
`HAVE_THREADS_POSIX` is set.
OS/400 had `HAVE_PTHREAD_H` set, but not `HAVE_THREADS_POSIX`, which
possibly left threading disabled in most sources.

Require CMake 3.18 (2020-07-15) or newer, up from 3.7 (2016-11-11)
prior to this patch.
This requirement also applies to the distributed `curl-config.cmake`.
To allow dropping compatibility code maintained for old versions, and to
use features which were unpractical in separate code paths. Also to make
testing, documentation and development easier, CI builds faster due to
CMake performance improvements over time. (e.g. integration tests on
macOS run 8x faster (10 minutes is now under 1.5m) in CI, 2.5x faster on
Windows.)
CMake offers pre-built binaries for major platforms. They work without
an install step, just by unpacking and pointing the cmake command to
them. Making upgrades easy in many cases:
https://cmake.org/download/https://cmake.org/files/https://github.com/Kitware/CMake/releases
CMake 3.18 brings these feature as generally available when building or
consuming curl/libcurl:
LTO support, improved performance, `pkg-config` and interface target
support, `OBJECT` target (for faster libcurl builds), modern invocation
with `-S`/`-B` options, better support for custom linker options,
FetchContent, `GnuTLS::GnuTLS` target, `--verbose` and `--install`
options, `CMAKE_GENERATOR` env, last but not least unity mode and Ninja
generator.
For maximum build speed, use:
`-DCMAKE_UNITY_BUILD=ON -DCURL_DROP_UNUSED=ON`
As for deprecations, C++11 is required to build CMake itself, which may
be a limit on some platforms. autotools continues to cover them.

Extend `#pragma diagnostic push`/`pop` guards to the whole codebase
(from tests and examples only) to disable it for GCC <4.6. Rename guard
to `CURL_HAVE_DIAG` and make it include llvm/clang to be interchangeable
with `__GNUC__ || __clang__` in this context.
The above means no longer disabling certain warnings locally, so pair
this with disabling all picky warnings for GCC <4.6.
Also:
- drop global workarounds for misbehaving GCC <4.6 compiler warnings.
Not needed with picky warnings disabled.

Also:
- support per-directory and per-upper-directory whitelist entries.
- convert badlist input grep tweak into the above format.
(except for 'And' which had just a few hits.)
- fix many code exceptions, but do not enforce.
(there also remain about 350 'will' uses in lib)
- fix badwords in example code, drop exceptions.
- badwords-all: convert to Perl.
To make it usable from CMake.
- FAQ: reword to not use 'will'. Drop exception.
Closes#20886
It's mostly a filler word. I've read through each use of it in the code
base and did minor rephrasings when "simply" carried some meaning. The
overwhelming majority of cases, removing it improved the text
significantly. Inspired by #20793.
Closes#20822
- add/fix/synchronize error messages and comments.
- consistently return error from the callback on failure.
- fix potential leaks on OpenSSL API failures.
- fix to not pass the nul-terminator to BIO read.
- scope a variable.
- sync code/formatting between the two examples.
Closes#20807
PEM_read_bio_PrivateKey() is called with the wrong BIO, so the private
key is not loaded.

Closes#20800
- vms/curlmsg_vms.h: delete unused/commented code.
- vtls/schannel_verify: sort includes.
- typecheck-gcc.h: fix indent and alignment.
- lib/config-win32.h: drop idle `#undef`.
- spacecheck: check for stray empty lines before after curly braces.
- make literals more readable: 1048576 -> 1024 * 1024
- scope variables.
- use ISO date in a comment.
- drop redundant parentheses.
- drop empty comments.
- unfold lines.
- duplicate/stray spaces in comments.
- fix indent, whitespace, minor typos.
Closes#20690
- fix internal macro `AN_APPLE_OS` reused between sources without
resetting it. It may potentially have left the system sha256
function unused.
- fix to define `WOLFSSL_OPTIONS_IGNORE_SYS` so that it always applies
to wolfSSL headers, also during feature detection.
- md4, md5, sha256: simplify fallback logic.
- delete 20+ unused macros.
- scope or move macros to avoid `-Wunused-macros` warnings.
- examples: delete unused code.
The warning detects macros defined but not used within the same C
source. It does not warn for macros defined in headers. It also works
with unity builds, but to a lesser extent.
Closes#20593
Replacing API calls deprecated by OpenSSL 3, and also missing
from OpenSSL 3 no-deprecated builds, fixing builds with the latter:
`PEM_read_bio_RSAPrivateKey()`, `RSA_free()`,
`SSL_CTX_use_RSAPrivateKey()`
Also: rename callback to match its `cacertinmem.c` sibling.
Fixes#20595Closes#20596
To avoid redefining the `fstat` system symbol, and to clarify
`struct_stat` is a curl symbol.
- introduce `curlx_fstat()` macro and use it.
- rename `struct_stat` to `curl_struct_stat`.
Also:
- tests: replace direct `curlx_win32_stat()` call with `curlx_stat()`.
- checksrc: disallow direct `_fstati64` and `fstat()` calls, except in
examples.
Closes#20496
To build all targets in a single go, meaning curl and libcurl as normal,
and tests and examples in addition. To build-test everything without
running multiple cmake commands.
Enable with:
- `-DCURL_BUILD_EVERYTHING=ON`
Special values: `QUICK` to build examples quickly for build test,
`NOEXAMPLES` to not build examples.
A well-equipped build takes 2.8s of configure time, and 1.7s to build
everything (shared, unity, ninja, prefill), 1.4s with `QUICK`. Without
this option it takes <1s to build curl/libcurl.
Also: streamline `CURL_LINT` internal logic.
Closes#20429
Use non-deprecated CRT function variants on Windows.
- introduce `curlx_fdopen()`, `curlx_close()` and use them. Map them to
non-deprecated, underscored, CRT functions on Windows.
- replace `close()` uses with either `sclose()` (for sockets) or
`curlx_close()` (for files).
- map `fileno`, `unlink`, `isatty` to their non-deprecated, underscored,
versions on Windows.
- tool_dirhie: map `mkdir` to `_mkdir` on Windows.
- easy: use `_strdup()` on Windows, regardless of how `HAVE_STRDUP` is
set.
- cmake: assume `HAVE_STRDUP` on Windows. To allow dropping a detection
hack using `_CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE` with MSVC. Windows always has
`_strdup()` which the code uses, but also needs `HAVE_STRDUP` defined
to disable curl's own `strdup()` implementation.
- curl_setup.h: drop `_CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE` as no longer necessary.
Closes#20212
After this patch curl requires targeting Vista or newer, and a toolchain
with Vista support.
Supported MSVC compilers (VS2010+) all support Vista:
- VS2012+ target Win8 (or later) by default.
- VS2010 targets Win7 by default.
Supported mingw-w64 versions (v3+) all support Vista:
- mingw-w64 v9+ target Win10 by default.
- mingw-w64 v8 and older target Server 2003 (~XP) by default.
After this patch it may be necessary to override the default Windows
target version to Vista (or newer) via:
autotools: `CPPFLAGS=-D_WIN32_WINNT=0x0600`
cmake: `-DCURL_TARGET_WINDOWS_VERSION=0x0600`
- mingw-w64 v6+ allow changing the default at toolchain build-time.
Notes:
- For non-MSVC, non-mingw-w64 toolchains, `if_nametoindex` needs to be
allowlisted in `curl_setup.h`, if they do support it.
Fixes#17985 (discussion)
Closes#18009
- reorder functions to not need forward declarations.
- sync `ephiperfifo.c` and `evhiperfifo.c`.
- drop redundant casts for `calloc()` return value.
- ephiperfifo: silence unused variable warning.
- fix indent and apply clang-format more.
Closes#20296
Also:
- examples/hsts-preload: apply the same change as it's based on lib1915
in tests. Make a local clone of `curlx_strcopy()`. Then drop the
`_CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS` hack, that's no longer necessary.
- curl_setup.h: delete `strcpy()` from the `_CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS`
list.
Closes#20076
Also:
- vquic-tls.h: do not include unused headers for non-H3 builds.
- autotools: stop looking for `openssl/x509.h` header.
- cmp-config.pl: delete exception for `openssl/x509.h`.
- examples: format/comment sync between the two touched files.
- openssl: drop unused `curlx/wait.h` include.
Closes#20049
- apply more clang-format.
- lib/version: use `CURL_ARRAYSIZE()`.
- INSTALL-CMAKE.md: sync-up an option description with others.
- examples: delete unused main args.
- examples/ftpgetinfo: document `_CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS` symbol.
- delete remaining stray duplicate lines.
- acinclude.m4: drop an unnecessary x-hack.
- vtls/mbedtls: join a URL split into two lines.
- src/tool_cb_see: add parentheses around macro expressions.
- src/tool_operate: move literals to the right side of comparisons.
- libtests: sync up fopen/fstat error messages between tests.
- curl_setup.h: replace `if ! defined __LP64` with `ifndef __LP64`.
I assume it makes no difference on Tandem systems, as the latter form
is already used in `include/curl/system.h`.
Closes#20018
After applying a recent fix made to `threaded.c` (formerly
`multithread.c`) to `threaded-ssl.c`, syncing and updating comments,
the two examples turned out to be identical except their test URLs.
Delete one of them to avoid duplication.
Also:
- examples/threaded: scope a variable.
- examples/threaded: merge comments from its deleted sibling.
