OpenSSL records its peer verification status inside its SSL_SESSION
objects. When a session is later reused, the SSL connection inherits
this verify status.
Session keys prevent reuse of sessions between connections that verify
the peer and those who do not. However, when Apple SecTrust is used
to verify a connection, this does not update the Sessions verify
status (and there is no setter). On session reuse, OpenSSL fails
the verification and Apple SecTrust cannot verify either since the
certificate peer chain is not available.
Fix this by checking the verification status on session reuse and
remove the session again if the peer needs to be verified, but the
session is not.

... between curl_multi_perform and curl_multi_wait/poll documentation
The `curl_multi_perform` documentation uses integer contextual
conversion to `bool` to test the resulting `CURLMcode`, while other
functions like `curl_multi_wait` and `curl_multi_poll` test against
`CURLM_OK`. (I was initially confused by this as it looked like some
docs call curl_multi_wait/poll on error, while some called only on
success. But that was my misread, not a docs problem.)
Also fixed the example to print which function call failed; previously
an error reported by `curl_multi_perform` was printed as a failure of
`curl_multi_wait`.
Closes#20444

GCC 15.2 warns when assigning computed "all" bitmask macros to 32-bit
flag types because negated masks expand to the full width of unsigned
long/long on 64-bit platforms.
Mask these macros to a 32-bit domain so they do not set high bits and
avoid -Woverflow/-Wconversion warnings in callers.

Via options:
- `BROTLI_USE_STATIC_LIBS`
- `CARES_USE_STATIC_LIBS`

- `NGTCP2_USE_STATIC_LIBS`
- `ZSTD_USE_STATIC_LIBS`
When enabled, make a "best effort" finding static libs first and set
the "build static" macro (on Windows) as required by the dependency.
When doing `pkg-config`-based detections, make curl select the static
configuration, which shall set the "build static" macro also.
These options resemble CMake's `OPENSSL_USE_STATIC_LIBS` and
`ZLIB_USE_STATIC_LIBS` (the latter does not support `pkg-config` as of
CMake v4.2.2).
Shared/static library selection based on loose filename conventions is
fragile and prone to break if the non-static-suffixed library is found
and happens to be a shared library, or, if the linker decides to pick up
a shared copy (e.g. `.a.dll`) that shadows the static one. It may help
to provide either static or shared, but not both, on the disk, and match
that with this setting.
Experimental.

To build all targets in a single go, meaning curl and libcurl as normal,
and tests and examples in addition. To build-test everything without
running multiple cmake commands.
Enable with:
- `-DCURL_BUILD_EVERYTHING=ON`
Special values: `QUICK` to build examples quickly for build test,
`NOEXAMPLES` to not build examples.
A well-equipped build takes 2.8s of configure time, and 1.7s to build
everything (shared, unity, ninja, prefill), 1.4s with `QUICK`. Without
this option it takes <1s to build curl/libcurl.
Also: streamline `CURL_LINT` internal logic.
Closes#20429
While working #16973, the binutils ld lib order workaround logic
regressed so that it modified the wrong target, writing into the system
`ZLIB::ZLIB` and `OpenSSL::Crypto` ones a `INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES`
property, instead of creating CURL-namespaced targets. Oddly enough,
this also fixed the binutils ld lib ordering issue. It seems this
property makes CMake insert each referenced library in two more
positions (not at the very end though), which allows ld to resolve all
symbols in the cases tested in CI.
Fix by creating the indented namespaced targets, and also creating
these in `curl-config.cmake` to be available when consuming libcurl.
Note that the logic continues doing `get_target_property()` on the two
system targets above. If these targets are defined manually and miss
the `LOCATION` propery, or are defined as aliases, this command may
fail. curl expects these targets be created by CMake's `FindZLIB` and
`FindOpenSSL` built-in Find modules (or ones compatible). Ref: #20419
The binutils ld issue is reproduced by these CI jobs:
- Linux gcc glibc (amd64, arm64)
- Windows gcc zlib-classic (x64)

Replace Chocolatey install with direct download and unpack. To reduce
CI dependencies (Chocolatey, NuGet), improve install performance
(10s -> 1s) and hopefully reliability. Last but not least to enable it

Caveats:
- Need to bump stunnel versions manually (2-3 times a year).
Renovate could likely do it, but I failed to understand its
documentation and miss tooling/interface to make tests.
- FIPS not enabled. (can be done if necessary)
- Possibly losing checksum verification (not sure if Chocolatey did it
automatically for this package.)
Also:
- Increase minimum tests by 100 for the Cygwin job.

The CMake config can be consumed by project which enable only language
`CXX`. `CMAKE_C_COMPILER_ID` isn't defined in this case, and the target
definition would be missing. But the check for compiler id isn't really

compiler.

To enable known linker options dropping unused, dead, code and data from
the executables built.
Useful to reduce binary sizes for curl, libcurl shared lib and apps
linking static libcurl. It's effective on both "unity" and non-unity
builds. Aligning "unity" build sizes with default, non-unity ones.
Supported platforms: Apple, MSVC, llvm/clang and GCC on all tested
platforms: Linux, BSDs, Windows, MSYS2/Cygwin, Android, MS-DOS.
Notes:
- Static libraries grow 20-30% with non-Apple toolchains.
This effect is controlled by separate, optional compiler flags on
non-Apple. This patch enables them automatically for public binaries
(libcurl and curl tool), and leaves them off for internal/test ones.
- MSVC enables this option by default for 'Release' configurations.
The curl build option has no effect on it.
- Observed effect on VS2010 is negligible. VS2012+ is recommended.
- Works with LTO, Fil-C.
- No observed/conclusive effect on build speed.
- On Windows with clang/gcc (mingw-w64/MSYS2/Cygwin) it also enables
`-fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables` as a workaround to make
the toolchain options actually work.

When using a proxy, --header specified headers were leaking into CONNECT

User-Agent headers in CONNECT.

MSVC does not advertise itself as C99 via `__STDC_VERSION__`, but
supports variadic macros in all curl-supported versions. Fix by
explicitly enabling C99 verbose string logic for MSVC.
With verbose logging enabled (default), this makes logging perform
better, on par with clang/gcc (and other C99) builds. (With the cost
of extra binary size.) With verbose logging disabled, it excludes all
verbose logging related strings and code from the binary. Before this
patch, MSVC used the C89 fallback code in both configs, which used
a fixed function call, with the called function deciding to actually
log or not, while also retaining the verbose log string in both configs.
