Pass a pointer to a null-terminated string holding the filename of the
known_host file to use. The known_hosts file should use the OpenSSH file
format as supported by libssh2. If this file is specified, libcurl only
accepts connections with hosts that are known and present in that file, with a
matching public key. Use CURLOPT_SSH_KEYFUNCTION(3) to alter the default
behavior on host and key matches and mismatches.

CURLOPT_SSH_KEYFUNCTION(3) to alter the default behavior on host and key
matches and mismatches.
We strongly suggest users doing SCP or SFTP transfers to set this option to
make sure that the network communication is done with the intended server and
not an impostor.
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this
option.
