Closes#21990
The SASL service name, used in authentication, is part of curl's credentials
when authenticating to a server/proxy. Make it part of `struct Curl_creds`.
Change code to use `creds` to obtain a service name. By tying creds used
to the connection, connection reuse is also only allowed when the service
name matches.
Closes#21585
`struct Curl_peer` keeps information about a communication endpoint
together. It will replace `conn->host` and `conn->conn_to_host` and
proxyinfo host. It will also become part of `struct ssl_peer`.
It has a reference counter, so an instance can be shared between
connections and filters.
Elminiates `conn->host` and `conn->connect_to_host`, used in the
proxyinfo structures. Passed to DNS resolution and socks filters, etc.
Pass peer to http proxy and socks tunnel filters. Use peer in dns filter
and resolving. Make `Curl_peer` a member in the `struct ssl_peer`.
Add `docs/internals/PEERS.md` for documentation.

To sync names for the same macro logic between lib and src, and to move
it to the curlx namespace, to match `curlx_free()` that it's calling.
Closes#21151
A "broken" SOCKS5 proxy can send an invalid length of the encryption
token, which could cause malloc(0) to be called, which is a "platform

Closes#20690
When the compiler supports C99.
- map logging functions to macro stubs when verbose logging is disabled
and the compiler is C99. Make sure these stubs silence unused variable
warnings for non-variadic arguments.
Before this patch they mapped to function stubs, the same codepath
used for C89 compiler in this configuration.
- introduce new macros to tell the compiler which code to include
when verbose code is active, or inactive:
- `CURLVERBOSE`: defined when verbose code is active.
To enclose blocks of code only used for verbose logging.
- `VERBOSE(statement);`:
compile statement when verbose code is active.
To mark code lines only used for verbose logging.
- `NOVERBOSE(statement);`:
compile statement when verbose code is inactive.
To suppress warnings for arguments passed to logging functions via
printf masks, e.g. `NOVERBOSE((void)ipaddress);`, yet keeping
the warning in verbose builds.
Note these macros are not the same as `CURL_DISABLE_VERBOSE_STRINGS`.
Verbose code is always active in C89 mode (without variadic macro
support).
- drop existing uses of `CURL_DISABLE_VERBOSE_STRINGS` where redundant,
or replace with the above macros. Ending up reducing the number of
`#ifdef`s, and also the number of lines.

Clone a multibye conversion function into curlx/fopen, and use that
local copy from curlx/fopen functions. Adjust allocators in curlx/fopen
to use curl's in normal builds, and system allocators in TrackMemory
builds to avoid recursion.
This allows to switch curlx/multibyte functions to curl allocators in
all configurations, as they are no longer called by curlx/fopen, and
a recursive call can no longer happen.
After this patch the system allocator is only used in TrackMemory
Windows builds, within curlx `fopen`, `freopen`, `stat` and `open`
functions.
Also:
- test 1, 440, 767: raise allocation limitsto fit the extra allocations
in Windows Unicode builds.
- replace all uses of `curlx_unicodefree()` macro with `curlx_free()`
across the codebase.
- curlx/multibyte: delete `curlx_unicodefree()`.
- ldap: join Windows and non-Windows codepaths that became
identical after moving from `curlx_unicodefree()` to `curlx_free()`.
- vauth: drop a strdup from standard to curl allocator since
the original allocation is now already done by curl's.
- tool_doswin: drop now superfluous strdup from `FindWin32CACert()`.
- memanalyzer.pm: sync weirdo `calloc` log message with `malloc`'s.
Fixes#19748Closes#19845
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.

`-Weverything` is not enabled by curl, and not recommended by LLVM,
because it may enable experimental options, and will result in new
fallouts after toolchain upgrades. This patch aims to fix/silence as much
as possible as found with llvm/clang 21.1.0. It also permanently enables
warnings that were fixed in source and deemed manageable in the future.
`-Wformat` warnings are addressed separately via #18343.
Fix/silence warnings in the source:
- typecheck-gcc.h: fix `-Wreserved-identifier`.
- lib: silence `-Wcast-function-type-strict`.
For llvm 16+ or Apple clang 16+.
- asyn-ares: limit `HAPPY_EYEBALLS_DNS_TIMEOUT` to old c-ares versions.
- curl_trc: fix `-Wc++-hidden-decl`.
- doh: fix `-Wc++-keyword`.
- ftp: fix `-Wreserved-identifier`.
- ldap: fix `-Wreserved-identifier`.
- mqtt: comment unused macro to avoid warning.
- multi_ev: drop unused macros to avoid warnings.
- setopt: fix useless `break;` after `return;`.
- gtls, mbedtls, rustls: silence `-Wconditional-uninitialized`.
- socks_sspi, schannel, x509asn1: fix `-Wimplicit-int-enum-cast`.
- x509asn1: fix `-Wc++-keyword`.
- openssl: scope `OSSL_UI_METHOD_CAST` to avoid unused macro warning.
- libssh2, wolfssl: drop unused macros.
- curl_ngtcp2, curl_quiche, httpsrr, urlapi: drop/limit unused macros.
- tool_getparam: fix useless `break;` after `return;` or `break;`.
Not normally enabled because it doesn't work with unity.

- tool_operate: fix `-Wc++-keyword`.
- curlinfo: fix a `-Wunsafe-buffer-usage`.
- tests: silence `-Wformat-non-iso`.
- lib557: fix `-Wreserved-identifier`.
- lib1565: silence `-Wconditional-uninitialized`.
Enable the above clang warnings permanently in picky mode:
- `-Wc++-hidden-decl`
- `-Wc++-keyword` (except for Windows, where it collides with `wchar_t`)
- `-Wcast-function-type-strict`
- `-Wcast-function-type`
- `-Wconditional-uninitialized`
- `-Wformat-non-iso` (except for clang-cl)
- `-Wreserved-identifier`
- `-Wtentative-definition-compat`
Silence problematic `-Weverything` warnings globally (in picky mode):
- `-Wused-but-marked-unused` (88000+ hits) and
`-Wdisabled-macro-expansion` (2600+ hits).
Triggered by `typecheck-gcc.h` when building with clang 14+.

`-Wcovered-switch-default` (20+ hits).
Next to impossible to fix cleanly, esp. when the covered `case`
branches depend on compile-time options.
- `-Wdocumentation-unknown-command` (8+ hits).
Triggered in a few sources. Seems arbitrary and bogus.
- `-Wpadded` (550+ hits).
- `-Wc++-keyword` on Windows, where it collides with `wchar_t`.
(100+ hits)
Ref: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/155988
- `-Wreserved-macro-identifier`. clang 13+. 5+ hits.
Sometimes it's necessary to set external macros that use
the reserved namespace. E.g. `_CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE`,
`__ENVIRONMENT_MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED__`, `__NO_NET_API`,
possibly `_REENTRANT`, and more.
It's not worth trying to silence them individually.
- `-Wnonportable-system-include-path` with `clang-cl`.
It'd be broken by doing what the warning suggests.
- `-Wformat-non-iso` for clang-cl.
CMake `PICKY_COMPILER=ON` (the default) or `./configure`
`--enable-warnings` (not the default) is required to enable these
silencing rules.
Also:
- autotools, cmake: fix Apple clang and mainline llvm version translations.

- Ensure memory allocated by malloc() is freed by free().
Prior to this change SSPI's FreeContextBuffer() was sometimes used to

reports about this is because the underlying heap free is probably the
same for both.

This function returned error on MANY places, each with its own cleanup

making them leak resources on errors.
This take now gotos to the error label where it cleans everything up
before returning error. This also simplifies the function a lot.

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
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.
