Early mingw-w64 releases missed it, but by requiring v3.0, this is no
longer an issue. Supported Visual Studio SDKs also offer it.
Follow-up to a28f5f68b9#18010Closes#18057
mingw-w64 3.0 was released on 2013-09-20. Offered by Debian jessie.
1.0 and 2.0 were released in 2011. It seems unlikely that many people
use them. The oldest downloadable toolchain (that I know of) comes with
3.0. Due to this, older versions weren't CI tested, and probably seldom
tested elsewhere. The last bugfix update for both 1.0 and 2.0 was
released in 2015.
curl can now assume availability of these 3.0 features/fixes:
- 64-bit file offsets.
- `ADDRESS_FAMILY` type.
- `__MINGW_PRINTF_FORMAT` macro. (in public curl headers)
Public curl headers keep supporting older mingw-w64 versions.

- simplify gathering header directories and compiler definitions
recursively.
- handle the case when the cmake directory object doesn't define header
directories or compiler definitions.
- honor more corners cases:
- `INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES` of the initial target.
- handle no header directory for initial target.
- de-duplicate header directories and compiler redefinitions to mimic
CMake.
- drop unnecessary `unset()`s.
Note that the order of header directories remains different compared to
how CMake passes them to the compiler when building tests. The order is
already different in the test target `INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES` property,
preventing to reproduce the exact CMake order. The distinction between
`-I` and `-isystem` is also missing from target properties.

It's pretty rough and a giant hack, but helps debugging and findind ways
while navigating the CMake maze. I find it sad CMake doesn't have
a built-in function for this that works correctly in all situations.
It's invaluable to be able to see what properties and values an object
has.
It's also possible there is a better solution to this, but I could not
find it.

Both are available with well-known conditions, under non-Windows, and
`curl/curl.h` already uses them. `sys/time.h` is also necessary for
mingw-w64 for `gettimeofday()`.
Follow-up to 56d5982312#17522Closes#17581
These libraries do not support TLS 1.3 and have been marked for removal
for over a year. We want to help users select a TLS dependency that is
future-proof and reliable, and not supporting TLS 1.3 in 2025 does not
infer confidence. Users who build libcurl are likely to be served better
and get something more future-proof with a TLS library that supports
1.3.
Closes#16677
Public `curl/curl.h` includes these headers for non-Windows platforms
without further conditions. This makes it safe to assume these headers
do exist, allowing to save two feature checks for non-Windows targets.
`sys/time.h` is also assumed on Windows with mingw-w64, for declaring
`gettimeofday()`.
Closes#17522
- replace dynamic `InitSecurityInterface()` call with early binding and

Closes#17476
Tests with old cmake are slow. (no Ninja, no unity, and running slower
than recent versions.)
It also revealed that 3.7.2 2017-01-13 is too old to consume curl via
`find_package()` due to:
```
CMake Error at bld-curl/_pkg/lib/cmake/CURL/CURLConfig.cmake:69 (add_library):

```
The mitigation for this issue requires 3.11.
Also:
- rename a few existing envs to use the `TEST_` prefix.
- make the `find_package` test provider stage verbose.
- fix issue when consuming with cmake 3.7.2 (all platforms):

Also to sync up with similar `./configure` feature via
`CURL_ADD_COMPILER_WARNINGS()`.
Example: `-DCMAKE_C_FLAGS=-Wno-xor-used-as-pow`
It may be useful as a workaround if a specific build combination hits
a picky warning within curl's source code. If such happens, we do
appreciate a report to fix it in curl itself.

I don't understand what this error says, why it happens in certain CMake
versions, and why a workaround is necessary for what seems like
a standard export/consume configuration. This patch is based on internet
suggestions and other projects ending up with this workaround.

Enable it for `_MSC_VER <= 1943`.
Omit it for not yet CI-tested MSVC versions, to avoid hitting unfixed
warnings emitted by future toolchain releases. It means we need
to explicitly opt-in to newer MSVC versions while fixing any new issues.
The newly enabled warnings did not reveal new issues. It hints that we
catch those with clang/gcc. Yet, these warnings may be useful for local
development done with MSVC.
Also:
- disable and document warnings that don't seem useful, unactionable,
or unfixable.
- disable and document warnings found in Windows SDK headers.
- tidy up a few comments, also to avoid
`-Wdocumentation-unknown-command`, part of llvm/clang `-Wall`.
```

Safe to do this now, as the code no longer relies on setting these
options after feature detection.
Also: Tidy up the way we handle options not to be passed to feature
checks, and make sure to show them in the configure log.
Follow-up to e86542038d#17047Closes#17062
Also:
- pass `-D_GNU_SOURCE` via `COMPILE_DEFINITIONS`.
- make it explicit to pass these C flags to feature checks.
- update `_GNU_SOURCE` comment with `pipe2()`.
- enable `-pedantic-errors` picky option for GCC with CMake <3.23.
- drop redundant condition when stripping existing MSVC `/Wn` options.
CMake passes `CMAKE_C_FLAGS` to targets, feature checks and raw
`try_compile()` calls. With `COMPILE_OPTIONS`, this is limited to
targets, and we must explicitly pass them to feature checks. This
makes the build logic clearer, and offers more control. It also
reduces log noise by omitting these options from linker commands,
and from `CMAKE_C_FLAGS` dumps in feature checks.
Closes#17047
- `NOT` + `VERSION_LESS` -> `VERSION_GREATER_EQUAL`

- make `CMAKE_REQUIRED_*` space alignment consistent.
- drop quote from version value for consistency with other cases.
- formatting
Closes#17002
The `exec_program()` is deprecated as of CMake 3.0.
This also removes the `rm_out` variable as it isn't used in the output.
In `execute_process()` the `ERROR_QUIET` and `OUTPUT_QUIET` resemble
the behavior of `exec_program(OUTPUT_VARIABLE)` behavior in this case.
Closes#16779
Before this patch, standard `E*` errno codes were redefined on Windows,
onto matching winsock2 `WSA*` error codes, which have different values.
This broke uses where using the `E*` value in non-socket context, or
other places expecting a POSIX `errno`, e.g. file I/O, threads, IDN or
interfacing with dependencies.
Fix it by introducing a curl-specific `SOCKE*` set of macros that map to
`WSA*` on Windows and standard POSIX codes on other platforms. Then
verify and update the code to use `SOCKE*` or `E*` macro depending on
context.
- Add `SOCKE*` macros that map to either winsock2 or POSIX error codes.
And use them with `SOCKERRNO` or in contexts requiring
platform-dependent socket error codes.
This fixes `E*` uses which were supposed be POSIX values, not `WSA*`
socket errors, on Windows:
- lib/curl_multibyte.c
- lib/curl_threads.c
- lib/idn.c
- lib/vtls/gtls.c
- lib/vtls/rustls.c
- src/tool_cb_wrt.c
- src/tool_dirhie.c
- Ban `E*` codes having a `SOCKE*` mapping, via checksrc.

- Add exceptions for `E*` codes used in file I/O, or other contexts
requiring POSIX error codes.
Also:
- ftp: fix missing `SOCKEACCES` mapping for Windows.
- add `SOCKENOMEM` for `Curl_getaddrinfo()` via `asyn-thread.c`.
- tests/server/sockfilt: fix to set `SOCKERRNO` in local `select()`
override on Windows.
- lib/inet_ntop: fix to return `WSAEINVAL` on Windows, where `ENOSPC` is
used on other platforms. To simulate Windows' built-in `inet_ntop()`,
as tested on a Win10 machine.
Note:
- WINE returns `STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER` = `0xC000000D`.
- Microsoft documentation says it returns `WSA_INVALID_PARAMETER`
(= `ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER`) 87:
https://learn.microsoft.com/windows/win32/api/ws2tcpip/nf-ws2tcpip-inet_ntop#return-value
- lib/inet_ntop: drop redundant `CURL_SETERRNO(ENOSPC)`.
`inet_ntop4()` already sets it before returning `NULL`.
- replace stray `WSAEWOULDBLOCK` with `USE_WINSOCK` macro to detect
winsock2.
- move existing `SOCKE*` mappings from `tests/server` to
`curl_setup_once.h`.
- add missing `EINTR`, `EINVAL` constants for WinCE.

Bug: https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/16553#issuecomment-2704679377Closes#16621
The issues found fell into these categories, with the applied fixes:
- const was accidentally stripped.
Adjust code to not cast or cast with const.
- const/volatile missing from arguments, local variables.
Constify arguments or variables, adjust/delete casts. Small code
changes in a few places.
- const must be stripped because an API dependency requires it.
Strip `const` with `CURL_UNCONST()` macro to silence the warning out
of our control. These happen at API boundaries. Sometimes they depend
on dependency version, which this patch handles as necessary. Also
enable const support for the zlib API, using `ZLIB_CONST`. Supported
by zlib 1.2.5.2 and newer.
- const must be stripped because a curl API requires it.
Strip `const` with `CURL_UNCONST()` macro to silence the warning out
of our immediate control. For example we promise to send a non-const
argument to a callback, though the data is const internally.
- other cases where we may avoid const stripping by code changes.
Also silenced with `CURL_UNCONST()`.
- there are 3 places where `CURL_UNCONST()` is cast again to const.
To silence this type of warning:
```
lib/vquic/curl_osslq.c:1015:29: error: to be safe all intermediate
pointers in cast from 'unsigned char **' to 'const unsigned char **'
must be 'const' qualified [-Werror=cast-qual]
lib/cf-socket.c:734:32: error: to be safe all intermediate pointers in
cast from 'char **' to 'const char **' must be 'const' qualified
[-Werror=cast-qual]
```
There may be a better solution, but I couldn't find it.
These cases are handled in separate subcommits, but without further
markup.
If you see a `-Wcast-qual` warning in curl, we appreciate your report
about it.

Disable these winsock2 functions on Windows to use the curl wrappers
and preserve `WSAGetLastError()` aka `SOCKERRNO` error codes.
curl sources uses `inet_pton()` and `inet_ntop()` via its own `Curl_`
prefixed wrappers. These wrappers promise to not overwrite
`WSAGetLastError()` aka `SOCKERRNO` error codes when calling them.
But, for Windows builds with these built-in winsock2 functions detected
(meaning all supported Windows versions, except Windows CE),
the wrappers were 1-to-1 mapped to the winsock2 functions, which broke
this promise.
b06c12b724/lib/inet_ntop.c (L188-L190)b06c12b724/lib/inet_pton.c (L66-L70)
These promises are old (a1d5983991) and
may not be valid anymore. In this case, the callers would have to be
updated to use `SOCKERRNO` to retrieve any error, instead of using
`errno` as they do now.
