- replace `Curl_read()`, `Curl_write()` and `Curl_nwrite()` to
clarify when and at what level they operate
- send/recv of transfer related data is now done via
`Curl_xfer_send()/Curl_xfer_recv()` which no longer has
socket/socketindex as parameter. It decides on the transfer
setup of `conn->sockfd` and `conn->writesockfd` on which
connection filter chain to operate.
- send/recv on a specific connection filter chain is done via
`Curl_conn_send()/Curl_conn_recv()` which get the socket index
as parameter.
- rename `Curl_setup_transfer()` to `Curl_xfer_setup()` for
naming consistency
- clarify that the special CURLE_AGAIN hangling to return
`CURLE_OK` with length 0 only applies to `Curl_xfer_send()`
and CURLE_AGAIN is returned by all other send() variants.
- fix a bug in websocket `curl_ws_recv()` that mixed up data
when it arrived in more than a single chunk (to be made
into a sperate PR, also)
Added as documented [in
CLIENT-READER.md](5b1f31dfba/docs/CLIENT-READERS.md).
- old `Curl_buffer_send()` completely replaced by new `Curl_req_send()`
- old `Curl_fillreadbuffer()` replaced with `Curl_client_read()`
- HTTP chunked uploads are now formatted in a client reader added when
needed.
- FTP line-end conversions are done in a client reader added when
needed.
- when sending requests headers, remaining buffer space is filled with
body data for sending in "one go". This is independent of the request
body size. Resolves#12938 as now small and large requests have the
same code path.
Changes done to test cases:
- test513: now fails before sending request headers as this initial
"client read" triggers the setup fault. Behaves now the same as in
hyper build
- test547, test555, test1620: fix the length check in the lib code to
only fail for reads *smaller* than expected. This was a bug in the
test code that never triggered in the old implementation.
Closes#12969
