- H3 proxy: re-sync code with original source `curl_ngtcp2.c` to reduce
differences, and to apply missed minor fixes. Also apply clang-format.
Drop redundant `#undef`s, casts, `#endif` comments, includes, drop
intermediate variables, sync include and macro order.
Follow-up to e78b1b3ecc#21153
- INSTALL-CMAKE.md: move `CURL_ENABLE_SMB` to the enable section.
- tests/http/env: rename `tcpdmp` to `tcpdump` to match object variable.
- mbedtls: drop incorrect `mbedTLS 4+` comments.
(features are also supported by 3+, meaning it's always supported.)
- lib1648: rename a variable to match purpose.
- CIPHERS.md: alpha-sort link list.
- replace rare `X''` hex markup with `0x`.
- `IP v4/6` -> `IPv4/6`.
- 'version X.Y' -> 'vX.Y', where sensible.
- 'VX.Y' -> 'vX.Y', where sensible.
- fix indents, casing, newlines, typos.
Closes#21772
This patch adds two major proxy capabilities to curl (ngtcp2 QUIC):
- HTTP/3 Proxy CONNECT: Tunnel HTTP/1.1 or HTTP/2 traffic through an
HTTPS proxy that speaks HTTP/3 (QUIC) using the standard CONNECT
method over an HTTP/3 connection.
- MASQUE CONNECT-UDP: Tunnel HTTP/3 (QUIC) traffic through an HTTP
proxy (speaking HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2, or HTTP/3) using the extended
CONNECT method with the CONNECT-UDP protocol (RFC9297 & RFC9298).
Public API additions:
- `CURLPROXY_HTTPS3`: new proxy type constant for HTTP/3 proxy
- `--proxy-http3`: new CLI flag to negotiate HTTP/3 with HTTPS proxy
The implementation adds two new filters:
- `H3-PROXY` - enables negotiating HTTP/3 (QUIC) to the proxy and
running CONNECT/CONNECT-UDP through that proxy transport.
- `CAPSULE` - dedicated filter inserted between QUIC transport and
HTTP-PROXY to handle datagram capsule encapsulation/decapsulation.
Here is how the curl filter chaining looks in different scenarios:
- HTTP/3 Proxy CONNECT (tunneling TCP protocols over QUIC proxy):
conn -> HTTP/1.1 or HTTP/2 -> SSL -> HTTP-PROXY ->
H3-PROXY -> HAPPY-EYEBALLS -> UDP
- MASQUE CONNECT-UDP (tunneling QUIC over any proxy):
conn -> HTTP/3 -> CAPSULE -> HTTP-PROXY -> H3-PROXY ->
HAPPY-EYEBALLS -> UDP
conn -> HTTP/3 -> CAPSULE -> HTTP-PROXY -> H1-PROXY or H2-PROXY ->
SSL -> HAPPY-EYEBALLS -> TCP
- Both features currently require the ngtcp2 QUIC backend.
- Both features are experimental (disabled by default). Enable with
`--enable-proxy-http3`(autotools) or `-DUSE_PROXY_HTTP3=ON`(CMake).
Tests:
- tests/unit/unit3400.c: Unit tests for capsule protocol encode/decode
- tests/http/test_60_h3_proxy.py: Comprehensive pytest integration suite
- tests/http/testenv/h2o.py: Managing h2o instances with HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2,
and HTTP/3 (QUIC) listeners, proxy.connect and proxy.connect-udp enabled.
