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.

Change `inputbuff` parameter from `const char *` to `const uint8_t *` to
reflect the binary nature of the input bytes. Half the code was casting
unsigned char to signed already in calling.
Closes#19722
Add protocol handler flag `PROTOPT_CONN_REUSE` to indicate that the
protocol allows reusing connections for other tranfers. Add that
to all handlers that support it.
Create connections with `conn->bits.close = FALSE` and remove all
the `connkeep()` calls in protocol handlers setup/connect implementations.
`PROTOPT_CONN_REUSE` assures that the default behaviour applies
at the end of a transfer without need to juggle the close bit.
`conn->bits.close` now serves as an additional indication that a
connection cannot be reused. Only protocol handles that allow
reuse need to set it to override the default behaviour.
Remove all `connclose()` and `connkeep()` calls from connection
filters. Filters should not modify connection flags. They are
supposed to run in eyeballing situations where a filter is just
one of many determining the outcome.
Fix http response header handling to only honour `Connection: close`
for HTTP/1.x versions.

After this patch, the codebase no longer overrides system printf
functions. Instead it explicitly calls either the curl printf functions
`curl_m*printf()` or the system ones using their original names.

Cherry-picked from #18477Closes#18485
Deduce that the transfer response expects headers by the protocol
handler implementing `write_resp_hd` callback. This eleminates the
`getheader` parameter in the `Curl_xfer_setup_*()` methods.
Add an implementation to RTSP for `write_resp_hd`, joining the HTTP
protocol in the only handlers having it.
Reverse the default of request's `header` bit that signals that headers
are expected. Default is now FALSE, set to TRUE when setting up the
transfer by presence of `write_resp_hd` in the protocol handler.
Closes#18218
Make variants for transfers that send/receive or do both with just the

`getsock()` calls operated on a global limit that could
not be configure beyond 16 sockets. This is no longer adequate
with the new happy eyeballing strategy.
Instead, do the following:
- make `struct easy_pollset` dynamic. Starting with
a minimal room for two sockets, the very common case,
allow it to grow on demand.
- replace all protocol handler getsock() calls with pollsets
and a CURLcode to return failures
- add CURLcode return for all connection filter `adjust_pollset()`
callbacks, since they too can now fail.
- use appropriately in multi.c and multi_ev.c
- fix unit2600 to trigger pollset growth

Move curlx_ functions into its own subdir.
The idea is to use the curlx_ prefix proper on these functions, and use
these same function names both in tool, lib and test suite source code.
Stop the previous special #define setup for curlx_ names.
The printf defines are now done for the library alone. Tests no longer
use the printf defines. The tool code sets its own defines. The printf
functions are not curlx, they are publicly available.
The strcase defines are not curlx_ functions and should not be used by
tool or server code.
dynbuf, warnless, base64, strparse, timeval, timediff are now proper
curlx functions.
When libcurl is built statically, the functions from the library can be
used as-is. The key is then that the functions must work as-is, without
having to be recompiled for use in tool/tests. This avoids symbol
collisions - when libcurl is built statically, we use those functions
directly when building the tool/tests. When libcurl is shared, we
build/link them separately for the tool/tests.

Closes#17253
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.

In curl 8.12 I tried to improve the logic on how we handle connections
that "upgrade" to TLS later, e.g. with a STARTTLS. I found the existing
code hard to read in this regard. But of course, the "improvements" blew
up in my face.
We fixed issues with imap, opo3, smtp in 8.12.1, but ftp was no longer
reusing existing, upgraded control connections as before. This PR adds
checks in our pytest FTP tests that verify reuse is happening as
intended.
I rewrote the logic in url.c again, so that the new test checks now pass.

- remove all use of strtol() and strtoul() in library code
- generally use Curl_str_* more than strtoofft, for stricter parsing
- supports 64-bit universally, instead of 'long' which differs in size
between platforms
Extended the unit test 1664 to verify hex and octal parsing.

Adds a `follow()` callback to protocol handlers, so they may decide how
to act on a `newurl` after a request has been done. This is optional.
This moves the HTTP code for handling redirects from multi.c to http.c
where it should be. If we ever add a protocol with its own logic, it
would install its own follow function.

- send/recv of transfer related data is now done via
`Curl_xfer_send()/Curl_xfer_recv()` which no longer has
socket/socketindex as parameter. It decides on the transfer setup of
`conn->sockfd` and `conn->writesockfd` on which connection filter
chain to operate.
- send/recv on a specific connection filter chain is done via
`Curl_conn_send()/Curl_conn_recv()` which get the socket index as
parameter.
- rename `Curl_setup_transfer()` to `Curl_xfer_setup()` for naming
consistency
- clarify that the special CURLE_AGAIN handling to return `CURLE_OK`
with length 0 only applies to `Curl_xfer_send()` and CURLE_AGAIN is
returned by all other send() variants.
