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
During conversion of `docs/FAQ` into Markdown, 'man ld' has incorrectly
kept one of its quotes when it was surrounded by backticks for inline
code formatting. A space on the left of it was lost as well.
Fix the formatting in the new `docs/FAQ.md`.
Closes#20812
- 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.

Cloes #20748
To allow building test binaries without test certs, replacing
`_CURL_SKIP_BUILD_CERTS` internal option with a build target that is
similar to `testdeps`, but without building the test certificates.
To make building test binaries a little bit faster, with less noisy
output, and without having to reconfigure the build.
Closes#20708
- 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
Instead of globally disabling unity for all targets when clang-tidy is
enabled.
After this patch `CMAKE_UNITY_BUILD=ON` is honored for:
- static libcurl when building both static and shared separately.
- libcurlu and libcurltool internal libraries when building the test
target.
While keeping unity disabled for the libcurl build pass running
clang-tidy, and the curl tool, also running clang-tidy.
To make clang-tidy-enabled builds finish faster when unity mode is
enabled, yet performs the same clang-tidy checks as before this patch.
Effect on:
- GHA/macos: core build: same, buils tests 5-12 seconds faster,
with steps going down from 259 to 25.

47s: https://github.com/curl/curl/actions/runs/22279873606/job/64448710743
- GHA/windows (not enabled): it'd save about 1 minute, bringing total
time barely below 10m, still one of the slowest jobs overall.
(#20667 is trying a way for 4x speed-up (with a drawback)).

- make sure that errors for specific options in config files identify
the file, line number and shows the error about the correct option
- improve some error message wording
- add warning for leading single quote of arguments in config files
(verified in test 1712)
- adjust test error outputs accordingly
test1712 introduces mode=warn
Use the mode="warn" attribute if the output curl warning output, as it
then makes the check without newlines and the prefix to better handle
that the lines may wrap at different points depending on the lengths of
the lines and terminal width.
Fixes#20598Closes#20666
Try to make the wording more clear. It is the addresses in the resolver
result that are affected, not anything regarding *how* resolving is
done.
Closes#20585
Simplify the language expaining the --variable option, reducing
repetition. Also fix some minor grammar issues and makes language for
examples more consistent.
Closes#20636
Fix bigger and smaller kinks in how clang-tidy is configured and used.
Sync behavior more between autotools and cmake, lib/src and tests. Bump
clang-tidy minimum version and prepare logic to allow using clang-tidy
to a fuller extent.
- move clang-tidy settings from builds to a new `.clang-tidy.yml`.
To make it easy to see and edit checks at one place. Also to allow
using the `--checks=` option internally to silence tests-specific
checks. (clang-tidy does not support multiple `--check=` options via
the command-line.)
Use explicit `--config-file=` option to point to the configuration.
- .clang-tidy.yml: link to documentation.
- suppress `clang-diagnostic-nullability-extension` due to a false
positive in libtests with `CURL_WERROR=ON` and `PICKY_COMPILER=OFF`.
- .clang-tidy.yml: enable `portability-*`, `misc-const-correctness`.
- drop `--quiet` clang-tidy option by default to make its working a bit
more transparent. The extra output is minimial.
- consistently use double-dashes in clang-tidy command-line options.
Supported by clang-tidy 9.0.0+ (2019-09-19). Before this patch single
and double were used arbitrarily.
- src/tool_parsecfg: silence false positive `clang-analyzer-unix.Stream`.
Seen with clang 18 + clang-tidy 19 and 20 (only with autotools.)
- INTERNALS: require clang-tidy 14.0.0+. For the `--config-file` option.
- INTERNALS: recommend clang-tidy 19.1.0+, to avoid bogus
`clang-analyzer-valist.Uninitialized` warnings. (bug details below)
autotools:
- allow configuring the clang-tidy tool via `CLANG_TIDY` env.
Also to use in GHA to point to a suffixed clang-tody tool.
- fix to pass CFLAGS to lib, src sources.
(keep omitting them when using a non-clang compiler.)
- fix to pass `--warnings-as-errors=*` in quotes to avoid globbing.
cmake:
- fix to not pass an empty `-I` to clang-tidy.
- fix to pass CFLAGS (picky warnings) to clang-tidy for test sources.
(keep omitting them when using a non-clang compiler.)
- fix to disable `clang-diagnostic-unused-function` for test sources.
(tests have static entry points, which trigger this check when
checking them as individidual sources.)
- fix forwarding `CURL_CLANG_TIDYFLAGS` to clang-tidy.
- force disable picky warnings when running clang-tidy with a non-clang
compiler. To not pass these flags when checking lib and src.
CI:
- GHA/linux: avoid clang-tidy bug by upgrading to v19, and drop the
workaround.
- GHA/linux: switch to clang from gcc in the clang-tidy job. Using gcc
doesn't allow passing CFLAGS to clang-tidy, making it less effective.
(My guess this was one factor contributing to this job often missing
to find certain issues compared to GHA/macos.)
I recomment using clang-tidy with a clang compiler, preferably the same
version or one that's compatible. Other cases are best effort, and may
fail if a C flag is passed to clang-tidy that it does not understand.
Picky warnings are mostly omitted when using a non-clang compiler,
reducing its usefulness.
Details and reproducer for the v18 (and earlier) clang-tidy bug,
previously affecting the GHA/linux job:
clang-tidy <=18 emits false warnings way when passing multiple C sources
at once (as done with autotools):
```sh
cat > src1.c <<EOF
#include <string.h>
static void dummy(void *p) { memcmp(p, p, 0); }
EOF
cat > src2.c <<EOF
#include <stdarg.h>
void vafunc(int option, ...)
{
va_list param;
va_start(param, option);
if(option)
(void)va_arg(param, int);
va_end(param);
}
EOF
/opt/homebrew/opt/llvm@18/bin/clang-tidy --checks=clang-analyzer-valist.Uninitialized src1.c src2.c
# src2.c:7:11: warning: va_arg() is called on an uninitialized va_list [clang-analyzer-valist.Uninitialized]
```
