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.

Closes#21153
With either /usr/sbin/sshd found or configured via --with-test-sshd=path
add tests for SCP down- and uploads, insecure, with known hosts or not,
with authorized user key or unauthorized one.
Working now with libssh and libssh2, using a hashed known_hosts file.
Closes#19934
- add startup check for 'danted' to avoid fails on low cpu
- rename 'sockd' to 'danted' everywhere to clarify what we use
- add proper defaults for 'danted' for debian
- install 'dante-server' in pytest ci runs
Closes#18075
Configure curl with `--with-test-sockd=<path to sockd>` for a locally
installed dante sockd server and new `test_40_*` will verify that
down- and uploads work via SOCKS.
Invoke scorecard.py with `--socks4` or `--socks5` to run performance
tests with SOCKS. Note that SOCKS is not supported for HTTP/3.
Ref: #17969Closes#17986
Since the script 'apachectl' from the httpd project is severly mutilated
on several distros, use the executable httpd/apache2 directly in pytest
runs.
Remove detection of apachectl form autoconf and cmake.
Closes#16000
- prefix local variables with underscore and convert to lowercase.
- list variables accepted by `libcurl.pc` and `curl-config` templates.
- quote more string literals.
Follow-up to 919394ee64#14450Closes#14462
- extend existing Linux workflow with CMake support.
Including running pytest the first time with CMake.
- cmake: generate `tests/config` and `tests/http/config.ini`.
Required for pytest tests.
Uses basic detection logic. Feel free to take it from here.
Also dump config files in a CI step for debugging purposes.
- cmake: build `tests/http/clients` programs.
- fix portability issues with `tests/http/clients` programs.
Some of them use `getopt()`, which is not supported by MSVC.
Fix the rest to compile in CI (old-mingw-w64, MSVC, Windows).
- GHA/linux: add CMake job matching an existing autotools one.
- GHA/linux: test `-DCURL_LIBCURL_VERSIONED_SYMBOLS=ON`
in the new CMake job.
- reorder testdeps to build server, client tests first and then
libtests and units, to catch errors in the more complex/unique
sources earlier.
- sort list in `tests/http/clients/Makefile.inc`.
Closes#14382
