The GitHub image runner update from 20240304.1.0 to 20240310.1
introduces a problem for clang-14. The issue is caused by
incompatibility between llvm 14 provided in ubuntu-22.04 image and the
much newer kernel configured with high-entropy ASLR.
As a work-around, we issue a sysctl command to lower the entropy and get
clang-14 to work again.

- Turn docs/INSTALL.cmake into a proper markdown file,
docs/INSTALL-CMAKE.md
- Move things around to divide the description into configuration,
building and installing sections
- Mention the more modern cmake options to configure, build and install,
but also retain the older variants as fallbacks
Closes#12772
This means words, phrases or things we have decided not to use - words that
are spelled right according to the dictionary but we want to avoid. In the
name of consistency and better documentation.
Closes#12764
- switch all invidual files documenting command line options into .md,
as the documentation is now markdown-looking.
- made the parser treat 4-space indents as quotes
- switch to building the curl.1 manpage using the "mainpage.idx" file,
which lists the files to include to generate it, instead of using the
previous page-footer/headers. Also, those files are now also .md
ones, using the same format. I gave them underscore prefixes to make
them sort separately:
_NAME.md, _SYNOPSIS.md, _DESCRIPTION.md, _URL.md, _GLOBBING.md,
_VARIABLES.md, _OUTPUT.md, _PROTOCOLS.md, _PROGRESS.md, _VERSION.md,
_OPTIONS.md, _FILES.md, _ENVIRONMENT.md, _PROXYPREFIX.md,
_EXITCODES.md, _BUGS.md, _AUTHORS.md, _WWW.md, _SEEALSO.md
- updated test cases accordingly
Closes#12751
curldown is this new file format for libcurl man pages. It is markdown
inspired with differences:
- Each file has a set of leading headers with meta-data
- Supports a small subset of markdown
- Uses .md file extensions for editors/IDE/GitHub to treat them nicely
- Generates man pages very similar to the previous ones
- Generates man pages that still convert nicely to HTML on the website
- Detects and highlights mentions of curl symbols automatically (when
their man page section is specified)
tools:
- cd2nroff: converts from curldown to nroff man page
- nroff2cd: convert an (old) nroff man page to curldown
- cdall: convert many nroff pages to curldown versions
- cd2cd: verifies and updates a curldown to latest curldown
This setup generates .3 versions of all the curldown versions at build time.
CI:
Since the documentation is now technically markdown in the eyes of many
things, the CI runs many more tests and checks on this documentation,
including proselint, link checkers and tests that make sure we capitalize the
first letter after a period...
Closes#12730
- HTTP/3 for curl using OpenSSL's own QUIC stack together
with nghttp3
- configure with `--with-openssl-quic` to enable curl to
build this. This requires the nghttp3 library
- implementation with the following restrictions:
* macOS has to use an unconnected UDP socket due to an
issue in OpenSSL's datagram implementation
See https://github.com/openssl/openssl/issues/23251
This makes connections to non-reponsive servers hang.
* GET requests will send the indicator that they have
no body in a separate QUIC packet. This may result
in processing delays or Transfer-Encodings on proxied
requests
* uploads that encounter blocks will use 100% cpu as
detection of these flow control issue is not working
(we have not figured out to pry that from OpenSSL).
Closes#12734
Despite its name, this atom acts like one-glob-to-all-files and a
different syntax with braces must be used to get
any-glob-to-all-files semantics. Unfortunately, this makes the file
completely unreadable.

- Check that all backslashes in EXAMPLE are properly escaped.
eg manpage must always use `\\n` never `\n`.
This is because the manpage requires we always double blackslash to show
a single backslash. Prior to this change an erroneous single backslash
would pass through and compile even though it would not show correctly
in the manpage.

PowerShell works (after a steep development curve), but one property of
it stuck and kept causing unresolvable usability issues: With
`$ErrorActionPreference=Stop`, it does abort on failures, but shows only
the first line of the error message. In `Continue` mode, it shows the
full error message, but doesn't stop on all errors. Another issue is
PowerShell considering any stderr output as if the command failed (this
has been improved in 7.2 (2021-Nov), but fixed versions aren't running
in CI and will not be for a long time in all test images.)
Thus, we're going with bash.
Also:
- use `-j2` with autotools tests, making them finish 5-15 minutes per
job faster.
- omit `POSIX_PATH_PREFIX`.
- use `WINDIR`.
- prefer forward slashes.

- enable `-Wsign-conversion` warnings, but also setting them to not
raise errors.
- fix `-Warith-conversion` warnings seen in CI.
These are triggered by `-Wsign-converion` and causing errors unless
explicitly silenced. It makes more sense to fix them, there just a few
of them.
- fix some `-Wsign-conversion` warnings.
- hide `-Wsign-conversion` warnings with a `#pragma`.
- add macro `CURL_WARN_SIGN_CONVERSION` to unhide them on a per-build
basis.
- update a CI job to unhide them with the above macro:

To be able to detect missing files better, this now runs the full CI
test suite. If done before, it would have detected #12462 before
release.

- use the correct include file
- make sure they are declared as in the header file
- fix minor nroff syntax mistakes (missing .fi)
These are verified by verify-synopsis.pl, which extracts the SYNPOSIS
code and runs it through gcc.

- build quictls with `no-deprecated` in CI to have test coverage for
this OpenSSL 3 configuration.
- don't call `OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms()`, `OpenSSL_add_all_digests()`.
The caller code is meant for OpenSSL 3, while these two functions were
only necessary before OpenSSL 1.1.0. They are missing from OpenSSL 3
if built with option `no-deprecated`, causing build errors:
```
vtls/openssl.c:4097:3: error: call to undeclared function 'OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms'; ISO C99 and later do not support implicit function declarations [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
vtls/openssl.c:4098:3: error: call to undeclared function 'OpenSSL_add_all_digests'; ISO C99 and later do not support implicit function declarations [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
