KNOWN_BUGS: remove items not considered bugs any more
- CURL_GLOBAL_SSL

This option was changed in libcurl 7.57.0 and clearly it has not caused
too many issues and a lot of time has passed.

- Store TLS context per transfer instead of per connection

This is a possible future optimization. One that is much less important
and interesting since the added support for CA caching.

- Microsoft telnet server

This bug was filed in May 2007 against curl 7.16.1 and we have not
received further reports.

- active FTP over a SOCKS

Actually, proxies in general is not working with active FTP mode. This
is now added in proxy documentation.

- DICT responses show the underlying protocol

curl still does this, but since this is now an established behavior
since forever we cannot change it easily and adding an option for it
seems crazy as this protocol is not so little its not worth it. Let's
just live with it.

- Secure Transport disabling hostname validation also disables SNI

This is an already documented restriction in Secure Transport.

- CURLOPT_SEEKFUNCTION not called with CURLFORM_STREAM

The curl_formadd() function is marked and documented as deprecated. No
point in collecting bugs for it. It should not be used further.

- STARTTRANSFER time is wrong for HTTP POSTs

After close source code inspection I cannot see how this is true or that
there is any special treatment for different HTTP methods. We also have
not received many further reports on this, making me strongly suspect
that this is no (longer an) issue.

- multipart formposts file name encoding

The once proposed RFC 5987-encoding is since RFC 7578 documented as MUST
NOT be used. The since then implemented MIME API allows the user to set
the name on their own and can thus provide it encoded as it wants.

- DoH is not used for all name resolves when enabled

It is questionable if users actually want to use DoH for interface and
FTP port name resolving. This restriction is now documented and we
advice users against using name resolving at all for these functions.

Closes #10043

Documentation

you will find a mix of various documentation in this directory and subdirectories, using several different formats. Some of them are not ideal for reading directly in your browser.

If you would rather see the rendered version of the documentation, check out the curl website's documentation section for general curl stuff or the libcurl section for libcurl related documentation.
