Closes#14073
When libcurl discards a connection there are two phases this may go
through: "shutdown" and "closing". If a connection is aborted, the
shutdown phase is skipped and it is closed right away.
The connection filters attached to the connection implement the phases
in their `do_shutdown()` and `do_close()` callbacks. Filters carry now a
`shutdown` flags next to `connected` to keep track of the shutdown
operation.
Filters are shut down from top to bottom. If a filter is not connected,
its shutdown is skipped. Notable filters that *do* something during
shutdown are HTTP/2 and TLS. HTTP/2 sends the GOAWAY frame. TLS sends
its close notify and expects to receive a close notify from the server.
As sends and receives may EAGAIN on the network, a shutdown is often not
successful right away and needs to poll the connection's socket(s). To
facilitate this, such connections are placed on a new shutdown list
inside the connection cache.
Since managing this list requires the cooperation of a multi handle,
only the connection cache belonging to a multi handle is used. If a
connection was in another cache when being discarded, it is removed
there and added to the multi's cache. If no multi handle is available at
that time, the connection is shutdown and closed in a one-time,
best-effort attempt.
When a multi handle is destroyed, all connection still on the shutdown
list are discarded with a final shutdown attempt and close. In curl
debug builds, the environment variable `CURL_GRACEFUL_SHUTDOWN` can be
set to make this graceful with a timeout in milliseconds given by the
variable.
The shutdown list is limited to the max number of connections configured
for a multi cache. Set via CURLMOPT_MAX_TOTAL_CONNECTIONS. When the
limit is reached, the oldest connection on the shutdown list is
discarded.
- In multi_wait() and multi_waitfds(), collect all connection caches
involved (each transfer might carry its own) into a temporary list.
Let each connection cache on the list contribute sockets and
POLLIN/OUT events it's connections are waiting for.
- in multi_perform() collect the connection caches the same way and let
them peform their maintenance. This will make another non-blocking
attempt to shutdown all connections on its shutdown list.
- for event based multis (multi->socket_cb set), add the sockets and
their poll events via the callback. When `multi_socket()` is invoked
for a socket not known by an active transfer, forward this to the
multi's cache for processing. On closing a connection, remove its
socket(s) via the callback.
TLS connection filters MUST NOT send close nofity messages in their
`do_close()` implementation. The reason is that a TLS close notify
signals a success. When a connection is aborted and skips its shutdown
phase, the server needs to see a missing close notify to detect
something has gone wrong.
A graceful shutdown of FTP's data connection is performed implicitly
before regarding the upload/download as complete and continuing on the
control connection. For FTP without TLS, there is just the socket close
happening. But with TLS, the sent/received close notify signals that the
transfer is complete and healthy. Servers like `vsftpd` verify that and
reject uploads without a TLS close notify.
- added test_19_* for shutdown related tests
- test_19_01 and test_19_02 test for TCP RST packets
which happen without a graceful shutdown and should
no longer appear otherwise.
- add test_19_03 for handling shutdowns by the server
- add test_19_04 for handling shutdowns by curl
- add test_19_05 for event based shutdowny by server
- add test_30_06/07 and test_31_06/07 for shutdown checks
on FTP up- and downloads.
Closes#13976
This adds connection shutdown infrastructure and first use for FTP. FTP
data connections, when not encountering an error, are now shut down in a
blocking way with a 2sec timeout.
- add cfilter `Curl_cft_shutdown` callback
- keep a shutdown start timestamp and timeout at connectdata
- provide shutdown timeout default and member in
`data->set.shutdowntimeout`.
- provide methods for starting, interrogating and clearing
shutdown timers
- provide `Curl_conn_shutdown_blocking()` to shutdown the
`sockindex` filter chain in a blocking way. Use that in FTP.
- add `Curl_conn_cf_poll()` to wait for socket events during
shutdown of a connection filter chain.
This gets the monitoring sockets and events via the filters
"adjust_pollset()" methods. This gives correct behaviour when
shutting down a TLS connection through a HTTP/2 proxy.
- Implement shutdown for all socket filters
- for HTTP/2 and h2 proxying to send GOAWAY
- for TLS backends to the best of their capabilities
- for tcp socket filter to make a final, nonblocking
receive to avoid unwanted RST states
- add shutdown forwarding to happy eyeballers and
https connect ballers when applicable.
Closes#13904
- decouple need to recv/send from negotiation state, we need
this later in shutdown handling as well
- move ssl enums from urldata.h to vtls_int.h
- implement use of `connssl->io_need` in vtls.c. and all backends
Closes#13879
- add `Curl_hash_add2()` that passes a destructor function for
the element added. Call element destructor instead of hash
destructor if present.
- multi: add `proto_hash` for protocol related information,
remove `struct multi_ssl_backend_data`.
- openssl: use multi->proto_hash to keep x509 shared store
- schannel: use multi->proto_hash to keep x509 shared store
- vtls: remove Curl_free_multi_ssl_backend_data() and its
equivalents in the TLS backends
Closes#13345
- add session with destructor callback
- remove vtls `session_free` method
- let `Curl_ssl_addsessionid()` take ownership
of session object, freeing it also on failures
- change tls backend use
- test_17, add tests for SSL session resumption
Closes#13386
Before this patch, two macros were used to guard IPv6 features in curl
sources: `ENABLE_IPV6` and `USE_IPV6`. This patch makes the source use
the latter for consistency with other similar switches.
`-DENABLE_IPV6` remains accepted for compatibility as a synonym for
`-DUSE_IPV6`, when passed to the compiler.
`ENABLE_IPV6` also remains the name of the CMake and `Makefile.vc`
options to control this feature.

Closes#12237
Connection filter had a `get_select_socks()` method, inspired by the
various `getsocks` functions involved during the lifetime of a
transfer. These, depending on transfer state (CONNECT/DO/DONE/ etc.),
return sockets to monitor and flag if this shall be done for POLLIN
and/or POLLOUT.
Due to this design, sockets and flags could only be added, not
removed. This led to problems in filters like HTTP/2 where flow control
prohibits the sending of data until the peer increases the flow
window. The general transfer loop wants to write, adds POLLOUT, the
socket is writeable but no data can be written.
This leads to cpu busy loops. To prevent that, HTTP/2 did set the
`SEND_HOLD` flag of such a blocked transfer, so the transfer loop cedes
further attempts. This works if only one such filter is involved. If a
HTTP/2 transfer goes through a HTTP/2 proxy, two filters are
setting/clearing this flag and may step on each other's toes.
Connection filters `get_select_socks()` is replaced by
`adjust_pollset()`. They get passed a `struct easy_pollset` that keeps
up to `MAX_SOCKSPEREASYHANDLE` sockets and their `POLLIN|POLLOUT`
flags. This struct is initialized in `multi_getsock()` by calling the
various `getsocks()` implementations based on transfer state, as before.
After protocol handlers/transfer loop have set the sockets and flags
they want, the `easy_pollset` is *always* passed to the filters. Filters
"higher" in the chain are called first, starting at the first
not-yet-connection one. Each filter may add sockets and/or change
flags. When all flags are removed, the socket itself is removed from the
pollset.
Example:
* transfer wants to send, adds POLLOUT
* http/2 filter has a flow control block, removes POLLOUT and adds
POLLIN (it is waiting on a WINDOW_UPDATE from the server)
* TLS filter is connected and changes nothing
* h2-proxy filter also has a flow control block on its tunnel stream,
removes POLLOUT and adds POLLIN also.
* socket filter is connected and changes nothing
* The resulting pollset is then mixed together with all other transfers
and their pollsets, just as before.
Use of `SEND_HOLD` is no longer necessary in the filters.
All filters are adapted for the changed method. The handling in
`multi.c` has been adjusted, but its state handling the the protocol
handlers' `getsocks` method are untouched.
The most affected filters are http/2, ngtcp2, quiche and h2-proxy. TLS
filters needed to be adjusted for the connecting handshake read/write
handling.
No noticeable difference in performance was detected in local scorecard
runs.
Closes#11833
- If SSL shutdown is not finished then make an additional call to
SSL_read to gather additional tracing.
- Fix http2 and h2-proxy filters to forward do_close() calls to the next
filter.
For example h2 and SSL shutdown before and after this change:
Before:
Curl_conn_close -> cf_hc_close -> Curl_conn_cf_discard_chain ->
ssl_cf_destroy
After:
Curl_conn_close -> cf_hc_close -> cf_h2_close -> cf_setup_close ->
ssl_cf_close
Note that currently the tracing does not show output on the connection
closure handle. Refer to discussion in #11878.

- vtls: improve generic get_select_socks() implementation
- tests: provide Apache with a suitable ssl session cache
Closes#11675
We remove support for building curl with gskit.
- This is a niche TLS library, only running on some IBM systems
- no regular curl contributors use this backend
- no CI builds use or verify this backend
- gskit, or the curl adaption for it, lacks many modern TLS features
making it an inferior solution
- build breakages in this code take weeks or more to get detected
- fixing gskit code is mostly done "flying blind"
This removal has been advertized in DEPRECATED in Jan 2, 2023 and it has
been mentioned on the curl-library mailing list.
It could be brought back, this is not a ban. Given proper effort and
will, gskit support is welcome back into the curl TLS backend family.
Closes#11460
Rename `close` and `connect` in `struct Curl_cftype` for
consistency and to avoid clashes with macros of the same name
(the standard AmigaOS networking connect() function is implemented
via a macro).
Closes#11491
- fix HTTP/2 check to not declare a connection dead when
the read attempt results in EAGAIN
- add H2-PROXY alive check as for HTTP/2 that was missing
and is needed
- add attach/detach around Curl_conn_is_alive() and remove
these in filter methods
- add checks for number of connections used in some test_10
proxy tunneling tests
Closes#11368
- add an `id` long to Curl_easy, -1 on init
- once added to a multi (or its own multi), it gets
a non-negative number assigned by the connection cache
- `id` is unique among all transfers using the same
cache until reaching LONG_MAX where it will wrap
around. So, not unique eternally.
- CURLINFO_CONN_ID returns the connection id attached to
data or, if none present, data->state.lastconnect_id
- variables and type declared in tool for write out
Closes#11185
- with `--proxy-http2` allow h2 ALPN negotiation to
forward proxies

- removed h2h3.c
- using new request parser in nghttp2 and all h3 backends
- adding test 2603 for request parser
- adding h2 proxy test cases to test_10_*
scorecard.py: request scoring accidentally always run curl

labeller: added http1.* and h2-proxy sources to detection
Closes#10967
- currently only on debug build and when env variable
CURL_PROXY_TUNNEL_H2 is present.
- will ALPN negotiate with the proxy server and switch
tunnel filter based on the protocol negotiated.
- http/1.1 tunnel code moved into cf-h1-proxy.[ch]
- http/2 tunnel code implemented in cf-h2-proxy.[ch]
- tunnel start and ALPN set remains in http_proxy.c
- moving all haproxy related code into cf-haproxy.[ch]
VTLS changes
- SSL filters rely solely on the "alpn" specification they
are created with and no longer check conn->bits.tls_enable_alpn.
- checks on which ALPN specification to use (or none at all) are
done in vtls.c when creating the filter.
Testing
- added a nghttpx forward proxy to the pytest setup that
speaks HTTP/2 and forwards all requests to the Apache httpd
forward proxy server.
- extending test coverage in test_10 cases
- adding proxy tests for direct/tunnel h1/h2 use of basic auth.
- adding test for http/1.1 and h2 proxy tunneling to pytest
Closes#10780
- eliminate receive loop in vtls to fill buffer. This may
lead to partial reads of data which is counter productive
- let http2 instead loop smarter to process pending network
data without transfer switches
scorecard improvements
- do not start caddy when only httpd is requested
- allow curl -v to stderr file on --curl-verbose
Closes#10891
SSL backends like OpenSSL/wolfSSL and other return the content of one
TLS record on read, but usually there are more available.
Change the vtls cfilter recv() function to fill the given buffer until a

Closes#10690
- time_connect was not updated when the overall connection failed,
e.g. when SSL verification was unsuccessful, refs #10670
