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
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
- stop redefining system symbol `lseek`, by introducing `curl_lseek()`.
- handle AmigaOS quirk within the macro mapping.
- add missing parenthesis to `LSEEK_ERROR` values.
- tool_util: use curl `lseek` macros in `tool_ftruncate64()`.
- move `LSEEK_ERROR` to right-hand side of if expressions.
- checksrc: disallow direct uses of `_lseeki64`, `llseek`, `lseek`.
Closes#20488
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
- asyn-thrdd.c: scope an include.
- apply more clang-format suggestions.
- tidy-up PP guard comments.
- delete empty line from the top of headers.
- add empty line after `curl_setup.h` include where missing.
- fix indent.
- CODE_STYLE.md: add `strcpy`.
Follow-up to 8636ad55df#20088
- lib1901.c: drop unnecessary line.

Move existing `Curl_rename()` `rename()` wrapper from lib to
curlx/fopen, and make it a curlx macro/function. To allow using
the local worker function to fixup long filenames on Windows.
Then fix the Windows-specific rename implementation to support long
filenames. This operation may happen when using a cookie jar, HSTS cache
or alt-svc cache, via libcurl or the curl tool.
Before this patch, when passing a long filename to the above options,
a `<random>.tmp` file was left on the disk without renaming it to the
filename passed to curl. There was also 1 second delay for each
attempted rename operation.
Also:
- checksrc: ban raw `rename()` and `MoveFileEx*()` functions.
- Note: `Curl_rename()` returned 1 on failure before this patch, while
`curlx_rename()` returns -1 after, to match POSIX `rename()`.

It makes them work in Schannel's CA bundle loader, and curl tool's
set/get file timestamp operations (e.g. in `-R`/`--remote-time`). Also
to match file open operations, that already support long filenames.
E.g. when using `--remote-time`, fixing:
```
Warning: Failed to set filetime 1741363917 on outfile: CreateFile failed:
Warning: GetLastError 0x00000003
```
The special long filename logic is necessary to support Windows releases
prior to Windows 10 v1607. With the latter, it's possible to opt-in to
this behavior via a manifest setting. Note that Windows itself also needs
to opt-in to support this. Finally note that curl itself needs passing
`--globoff` to let long filenames through, pending #20044 and #20046.

Closes#19286Closes#20040
Before this patch curl used the C preprocessor to override standard
memory allocation symbols: malloc, calloc, strdup, realloc, free.
The goal of these is to replace them with curl's debug wrappers in
`CURLDEBUG` builds, another was to replace them with the wrappers
calling user-defined allocators in libcurl. This solution needed a bunch
of workarounds to avoid breaking external headers: it relied on include
order to do the overriding last. For "unity" builds it needed to reset
overrides before external includes. Also in test apps, which are always
built as single source files. It also needed the `(symbol)` trick
to avoid overrides in some places. This would still not fix cases where
the standard symbols were macros. It was also fragile and difficult
to figure out which was the actual function behind an alloc or free call
in a specific piece of code. This in turn caused bugs where the wrong
allocator was accidentally called.
To avoid these problems, this patch replaces this solution with
`curlx_`-prefixed allocator macros, and mapping them _once_ to either
the libcurl wrappers, the debug wrappers or the standard ones, matching
the rest of the code in libtests.
This concludes the long journey to avoid redefining standard functions
in the curl codebase.
Note: I did not update `packages/OS400/*.c` sources. They did not
`#include` `curl_setup.h`, `curl_memory.h` or `memdebug.h`, meaning
the overrides were never applied to them. This may or may not have been
correct. For now I suppressed the direct use of standard allocators
via a local `.checksrc`. Probably they (except for `curlcl.c`) should be
updated to include `curl_setup.h` and use the `curlx_` macros.
This patch changes mappings in two places:
- `lib/curl_threads.c` in libtests: Before this patch it mapped to
libcurl allocators. After, it maps to standard allocators, like
the rest of libtests code.
- `units`: before this patch it mapped to standard allocators. After, it
maps to libcurl allocators.
Also:
- drop all position-dependent `curl_memory.h` and `memdebug.h` includes,
and delete the now unnecessary headers.
- rename `Curl_tcsdup` macro to `curlx_tcsdup` and define like the other
allocators.
- map `curlx_strdup()` to `_strdup()` on Windows (was: `strdup()`).
To fix warnings silenced via `_CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE`.
- multibyte: map `curlx_convert_*()` to `_strdup()` on Windows
(was: `strdup()`).
- src: do not reuse the `strdup` name for the local replacement.
- lib509: call `_strdup()` on Windows (was: `strdup()`).
- test1132: delete test obsoleted by this patch.
- CHECKSRC.md: update text for `SNPRINTF`.
- checksrc: ban standard allocator symbols.

By making them defaults, then fixing and/or reshuffling remaining
exceptions as necessary.
- checksrc: ban by default: `snprintf`, `vsnprintf`, `sscanf`, `strtol`.
- examples: replace `strtol` with `atoi` to avoid a checksrc exception.
- tests/libtest: replace `strtol` with `atol`.
- tests/server: replace most `strtol` with `atol`.
- tests/server: replace most `strtoul` with `atol`/`atoi`.
- tests/server: drop no longer used `util_ultous`.
- fix typo in checksrc rules: `vsnprint` -> `vsnprintf`.
- update local exceptions.
Also:
- examples: ban curl printf functions. They're discouraged in user code.
- examples: replace curl printf with system printf.
Add `snprintf` workaround for <VS2015.
- examples/synctime: fix `-Wfloat-equal`.
- examples/synctime: exclude for non-Windows and non-UWP Windows.
- examples/synctime: build by default.
Closes#18823
To avoid hitting `-Wreserved-macro-identifier` where possible.
- amigaos: introduce local macro instead of reusing `__request()`.
- easy_lock: avoid redefining `__has_builtin()`.
Follow-up to 33fd57b8ff#9062
- rand: drop interim macro `_random()`.
- windows: rename local macro `_tcsdup()` to `Curl_tcsdup()`.
To avoid using the reserved macro namespace and to avoid
colliding with `_tcsdup()` as defined by Windows headers.
- checksrc: ban `_tcsdup()` in favor of `Curl_tcsdup()`.
- tool_doswin: avoid redefining `_use_lfn()` (MS-DOS).
- tool_findfile: limit `__NO_NET_API` hack to AmigaOS.
Syncing this pattern with `lib/netrc.c`.
Follow-up to 784a8ec2c1#16279
- examples/http2-upload: avoid reserved namespace for local macro.
More cases will be removed when dropping WinCE support via #17927.
Cases remain when defining external macros out of curl's control.
