Add `CURL_CA_SEARCH_SAFE` build-time option to enable CA bundle search
in the `curl` tool directory. The lookup method was already used to find
`.curlrc` and `_curlrc` (on Windows). On Windows it overrides the unsafe
default `SearchPath()` method.
Enable with:
- cmake: `-DCURL_CA_SEARCH_SAFE=ON`
- autotools: `--enable-ca-search-safe`
- raw: `CPPFLAGS=-DCURL_CA_SEARCH_SAFE`
On Windows, before this patch the whole `PATH` was searched for
a CA bundle. `PATH` may contain unwanted or world-writable locations,
including the current directory. Searching them all is convenient to
pick up any CA bundle, but not secure.
The Muldersoft curl distro implements such CA search via a custom
patch for Windows:
cd652d4792/patch/curl_tool_doswin.diff (L50)
MSYS2/mingw-w64 distro has also been rolling a patch solving this:
https://github.com/msys2/MINGW-packages/blob/master/mingw-w64-curl/0001-Make-cURL-relocatable.patchhttps://github.com/msys2/MINGW-packages/blob/master/mingw-w64-curl/pathtools.c
Also add option to fully disable Windows CA search:
- cmake: `-DCURL_DISABLE_CA_SEARCH=ON`
- autotools: `--disable-ca-search`
- raw: `CPPFLAGS=-DCURL_DISABLE_CA_SEARCH`.
Both options are considered EXPERIMENTAL, with possible incompatible
changes or even (partial) removal in the future, depending on feedback.
An alternative, secure option is to embed the CA bundle into the binary.
Safe search can be extended to other platforms if necessary or useful,
by using `_NSGetExecutablePath()` (macOS),
`/proc/self/exe` (Linux/Cygwin), or `argv[0]`.
Closes#14582
- autotools: add support for custom prefix.
Usage: `--enable-versioned-symbols=MYPREFIX_`
Catching up with cmake.
- add default versioned prefix for Rustls builds.
- delete `HIDDEN` entry from version script `lib/libcurl.vers.in`.
It referred to symbol names that never existed in libcurl.
- cmake: use `lib/libcurl.vers.in` as a template instead of generating
it from scratch. Adapt `./configure` accordingly, and add comments
to keep hard-wired soname in sync with `lib/Makefile.soname`.
- autotools: delete Schannel and Secure Transport version prefixes.
Windows and macOS don't support the versioned symbols option.

Before this patch, only these triplets were considered Apple:
`<cpu>-apple-darwin`
After this patch, these are also considered Apple:
`<cpu>-apple-(ios*|tvos*|visionos*|watchos*|<ETC>)`
`$host_os` (the last third of the triplet) still has a valid use
to differentiate between OS flavours, though for now this isn't
used, aligning with CMake.
Closes#14728
- cmake: drop `configure.os`.
This also includes OS version, but thus far it's not important enough
to include it.
- autotools: drop redundant, autotools-only `{target|host}.vendor`.
(it's part of the triplet in `{target|host}`.)
- swap order to `*.cpu` -> `*.os` to match triplet-order.
- cmake: drop redundant `target`.
It's manually filled and only in a (so far) few CI jobs. Let's revisit
when this becomes useful.
- move `buildinfo.txt` to build root.
- dist: add `buildinfo.txt` to `DISTCLEANFILES`.
- autotools: detect human readable compiler version.
- autotools: replace `XXYY` `compiler.version` with "X.Y"-style.
(also to match cmake.)
- autotools: use distinct `compiler_id` for Apple clang: `APPLECLANG`.
To match cmake and also because the the "X.Y"-style version number
is the Apple version, while `XXYY` was a value roughly translated to
mainline llvm/clang version.
- show buildinfo at the end of the configure stage, when run in CI, or
when `CURL_BUILDINFO` or `CURL_CI` env is set.

Closes#14802
Change mingw-w64 printf format checks in public curl headers to use
`__MINGW_PRINTF_FORMAT` instead of `gnu_printf`. This syncs the format
checker with format string macros published via `curl/system.h`. (Also
disable format checks for mingw-w64 older than 3.0.0 (2013-09-20) and
classic-mingw, which do not support this macro.)
This fixes bogus format checker `-Wformat` warnings in 3rd party code
using curl format strings with the curl printf functions, when using
mingw-w64 7.0.0 (2019-11-10) and older (with GCC, MSVCRT).
It also allows to delete two workaounds for this within curl itself:
- setting `-D__USE_MINGW_ANSI_STDIO=1` for mingw-w64 via cmake and
configure for `docs/examples` and `tests/http/clients`.
Ref: c730c8549b#14640
The format check macro is incompatible (depending on mingw-w64 version
and configuration) with the C99 `%z` (`size_t`) format string used
internally by curl.
To work around this problem, override the format check style in curl
public headers to use `gnu_printf`. This is compatible with `%z` in all
mingw-w64 versions and allows keeping the C99 format strings internally.
Also:
- lib/ws.c: add missing space to an error message.
- docs/examples/ftpgetinfo.c: fix to use standard printf.

Bring the option name style in sync with cmake and with other configure
options aiming to enable something unrelated to an optional package.
(I initially named this new option `--with-windows-unicode` within this
release cycle.)
Follow-up to 9e4a2187e7#14478Closes#14746
For recently added/updated options:
windows-unicode, winidn, apple-idn
It looks like the second `AS_HELP_STRING()` must start in the first
column, otherwise its indentation will appear in the `--help` output,
and break unalignment with the rest.
(There must be a better way to tackle this.)
Update the script for test 1013 and 1014 to require:
- case-sensitive match for the curl feature list.
(Continue to allow case-difference for protocols. They've always been
in uppercase within curl config.)
- matching order for the protocol list.
(Continue to allow any order for features. autotools builds on
platforms without `sort -f` need it. E.g. Old Linux CI)
Also:
- fix casing of the `gsasl` feature in `configure`, to match `curl -V`
and cmake.
- delete obsolete comment.
Closes#14706
1. GHA/windows: enable WinIDN in Linux cross-builds.

2. fix compiler warning when building with mingw-w64 supporting
WinIDN, while targeting pre-Vista Windows, with a `WINVER` set to
target Vista or newer. (Such was Ubuntu's mingw-w64 with the
classic-mingw-specific trick in point 3 of this PR.)

Closes#14680
Before this patch, `libhostname.so` and `chkhostname` were a test
facility for overriding `gethostname()` in non-debug builds on
Linux and other Unix platforms supporting `LD_PRELOAD`.
`gethostname()` has a single use with SMTP.
The alternative way to override `gethostname()` is building in debug
mode, which allows to do this via the `CURL_GETHOSTNAME` env, on all
platforms.
Drop the `LD_PRELOAD` solution in favour of the above.
Also:
- delete inactive NTLM code with a `gethostname()` call made from it.
- streamline NTLM code by dropping a `printf()` and a macro.
- tests: stop setting `CURL_GETHOSTNAME` where unnecessary.
Closes#14695
- configure: disable pthreads by default on Windows.
- configure: disable detecting `fseeko()` on Windows.
(It exists in mingw-w64 2.0.0 and newer, but it's permanently ignored
in CMake, as this function is never necessary on Windows.)
- extend existing exceptions with their Windows variants.
- `lib/formdata.c`: prioritize `_fseeki64()` over `fseeko()`.
To reduce the difference between Windows builds, which now all use
`_fseeki64()`.
- cmake: perm-enable `HAVE_DIRENT_H` and `HAVE_OPENDIR` for mingw-w64,
to match configure.

Also:
- configure: sync `USE_MANUAL` macro with cmake, by only setting it for
`src`. Drop checker exception.
- CI: use `--disable-dependency-tracking` in existing jobs.
- CI: install packages before git checkout, in existing jobs.

If AppleIDN or WinIDN is selected, don't look for libidn2. Do this by
moving libidn2 detection after AppleIDN/WinIDN and skipping it if any
of them was selected.
Also:
- disable AppleIDN by default with autotools to sync behaviour with
CMake.
- limit WinIDN checks to native Windows with autotools, as with CMake.
Before this patch libidn2 was detected by default even if AppleIDN or
WinIDN was explicitly selected. libidn2 wasn't used in the build, but
it was left enabled as a dependency and appeared in `libcurl.pc` and
`curl-config`.
Closes#14674
Add tweak for mingw-w64 when building tests/http/client programs to
avoid a bogus `-Wformat` warning when using mingw-w64 v7.0.0 or older.
The warning is bogus because these programs use curl's `printf()`
implementation that is guaranteed to support that format spec.
Add this for both CMake and autotools. (But only CMake is CI tested with
an old toolchain.)
Apply the workaround to `docs/examples`, and fix an example to use
curl's `printf()` with `CURL_FORMAT_CURL_OFF_T`.
Reintroduce curl `printf()` calls into `tests/http/client`, via #14625.
Also restore large number masks to a printf, changed earlier in #14382.

Implement the `--enable-versioned-symbols` feature available in
`./configure` for CMake.
Enable with `-DCURL_LIBCURL_VERSIONED_SYMBOLS=ON`. Customize the version
prefix with `-DCURL_LIBCURL_VERSIONED_SYMBOLS_PREFIX=MYPREFIX_`. By
default the prefix matches what autotools uses.
When enabled, the feature is detected and a warning shown if
unavailable. (E.g. on Apple and Windows, it isn't.)
Included `HIDDEN {};` to match autotools, though I don't know if it's
necessary, useful or making any difference.
Differences from the autotools implementation:
- soversion is dynamic instead of hard-coded.
- omits referencing non-curl symbols.
- allows prefix/flavour override.
- more universal feature detection.
- doesn't rely on the in-repo `lib/libcurl.vers.in` file.
Also:
- add mbedTLS and BearSSL versioned symbol prefix support to autotools.
- enable this option in an old-linux job.

Add the ability to embed a CA bundle into the curl binary. It is used
when no other runtime or build-time option set one.
This helps curl-for-win macOS and Linux builds to run standalone, and
also helps Windows builds to avoid picking up the CA bundle from an
arbitrary (possibly world-writable) location (though this behaviour is
not currently disablable).
Usage:
- cmake: `-DCURL_CA_EMBED=/path/to/curl-ca-bundle.crt`
- autotools: `--with-ca-embed=/path/to/curl-ca-bundle.crt`
- Makefile.mk: `CURL_CA_EMBED=/path/to/curl-ca-bundle.crt`
Also add new command-line option `--dump-ca-embed` to dump the embedded
CA bundle to standard output.
