- It is slower and uses more memory than the alternatives and is only
experimental in curl.
- We disable a few tests for OpenSSL-QUIC because of flakiness
- It gets little attention from OpenSSL and we have no expectation of the
major flaws getting corrected anytime soon.
- No one has spoken up for keeping it
- curl users building with vanilla OpenSSL can still use QUIC through the
means of ngtcp2
Closes#20226
With the same semantics as Apple SecTrust, in both libcurl and the curl
tool, when using non-Schannel TLS backends. In practice it means that
it makes TLS work without manually or implicitly configuring a CA bundle
`.crt` file, such as `curl-ca-bundle.crt`.
To enable:
- autotools: `--enable-ca-native`
- cmake: `-DCURL_CA_NATIVE=ON`
- CPPFLAGS: `-DCURL_CA_NATIVE`
When enabled:
- enables `CURLSSLOPT_NATIVE_CA` (libcurl) / `--ca-native`
and `--proxy-ca-native` (curl tool) options by default.
- unsafe search for an on-disk CA bundle gets disabled by default.
Equivalent to `--disable-ca-search` with autotools,
`-DCURL_DISABLE_CA_SEARCH=ON` with CMake.
- build-time detection of CA bundle and CA path gets disabled. As with
Apple SecTrust. This was already the default for Windows.
- native CA can be disabled at run-time with the `--no-ca-native`
and/or `--no-proxy-ca-native` command-line options.
Rationale: This build option:
- has a repeat and active interest from packagers and users.
- helps integrating curl with Windows for those who need this.
- it also applies to macOS: #17525
Shipped in curl 8.17.0.
- makes it trivial to use custom certs configured on the OS.
- frees applications/packagers/users from the task of securely
distributing, and keeping up-to-date, a CA bundle.
- frees potentially many curl tool from configuring a CA bundle manually
to access HTTPS (and other TLS) URLs. This is traditionally difficult
on Windows because there is no concept of a universal, protected,
non-world-writable, location on the file system to securely store
a CA bundle.
- allows using modern features regardless of Windows version. Some of
these features are not supported with Schannel (e.g. HTTP/3, ECH) on
any Windows version.
- is necessary for HTTP/3 builds, where bootstrapping a CA bundle is not
possible with Schannel, because MultiSSL is not an option, and HTTP/3
is not supported with Schannel.

After this patch curl requires targeting Vista or newer, and a toolchain
with Vista support.
Supported MSVC compilers (VS2010+) all support Vista:
- VS2012+ target Win8 (or later) by default.
- VS2010 targets Win7 by default.
Supported mingw-w64 versions (v3+) all support Vista:
- mingw-w64 v9+ target Win10 by default.
- mingw-w64 v8 and older target Server 2003 (~XP) by default.
After this patch it may be necessary to override the default Windows
target version to Vista (or newer) via:
autotools: `CPPFLAGS=-D_WIN32_WINNT=0x0600`
cmake: `-DCURL_TARGET_WINDOWS_VERSION=0x0600`
- mingw-w64 v6+ allow changing the default at toolchain build-time.
Notes:
- For non-MSVC, non-mingw-w64 toolchains, `if_nametoindex` needs to be
allowlisted in `curl_setup.h`, if they do support it.

All Windows platforms support it. It was permanently enabled with most
build methods. The exception is autotools where it is enabled by
default, with an option to disable it. It changed the build in a few
places for rarely tested code paths, but not bringing other advantages
(and used some 64-bit APIs anyway). This patch makes autotools'
`--disable-largefile` option a no-op for Windows.
Closes#19888
Usage:
- autotools: `--disable-typecheck` (or `--enable-typecheck` (default))
- cmake: `-DCURL_DISABLE_TYPECHECK=ON`.
To disable `curl_easy_setopt()`/`curl_easy_getinfo()` type checking with
supported (new) gcc and clang compilers. It is useful to improve build
performance for the `tests/libtest` target. In particular the CodeQL
analyzer may take above an hour to compile with type checking enabled,
and disabling it brings it down to seconds. On local machines it may
also cut build times in half when build testdeps, depending on platform
and compiler.
Other than these cases, we recommend leaving type checking enabled.

Windows CE support was limited to successful builds with ming32ce
(a toolchain that hasn't seen an update since 2009, using an ancient gcc
version and "old mingw"-style SDK headers, that curl deprecated earlier).
Builds with MSVC were broken for a long time. mingw32ce builds were never
actually tested and runtime and unlikely to work due to missing stubs.
Windows CE toolchains also miss to comply with C89. Paired with lack of
demand and support for the platform, curl deprecated it earlier.
This patch removes support from the codebase to ease maintaining Windows
codepaths.

Make autotools and cmake detect DES support in OpenSSL and mbedTLS.
Forward feature macros to C and omit NTLM from the feature preview list.
Use the feature macros in source. This ensure that `-V` output matches
the preview.
OpenSSL doesn't support DES when built with `no-des` or `no-deprecated`.
mbedTLS 4.x no longer supports it, and it's possible to disable it in
<4 with `scripts/config.py unset MBEDTLS_DES_C`.
Before this patch this worked for
mbedTLS 4 only, and with a regression for pending PR #16973.
Also:
- drop NTLM feature check from `curl_setup.h` in favour of autotools/
cmake feature macros. This makes `curl_setup.h` no longer need
to include an mbedTLS header, which in turn makes tests/server build
without depending on mbedTLS.
Fixing, in #16973:

header in the 1990s already.

falls back to using a pre-built hugehelp, or a stub if that's missing.
CA-embed is automatically skipped, with a warning.

Schannel is not supported by UWP. SSPI is also required by Schannel in
curl, and SSPI also isn't supported by UWP.
mingw-w64 is able to create such build regardless (my guess: due to API
parts not accurately marked as UWP-only), but the binary is unlikely
to work. With MSVC the failure happens at build-time.

libtests and clients were built the same way after recent overhauls.
libtests are used by runtests, clients by pytests.
Merge clients into libtests, aligning their entry function signature,
dropping common utility functions, and simplifying the build.
Note: After this patch `CURLDEBUG` applies to cli tests, when enabled.
Also:
- lib552: drop local copy-paste debug callback in favor of testtrace.
- lib552: drop local copy-paste dump function in favor of testtrace.
- clients: use `long` for HTTP version, drop casts.
- clients: replace local dump function in favor of testrace clone.
- sync cli test entry function prototype with libtests'.
- h2_serverpush: replace local trace callback with testtrace.
- de-duplicate 3 websocket close, ping, ping, functions. Kept the pong
iteration from `ws_pingpong`. Note: the pong clone in `lib2304` was
returning an error when `curl_ws_recv()` returned non-zero and
the payload matched the expected one anyway. After this patch, this
case returns success, as it does in `ws_pingpong`.
`lib2304` keeps passing, but I'm not sure if the previous behavior
was intentional.

Early mingw-w64 releases missed it, but by requiring v3.0, this is no

Required for mingw-w64 5.x (and older) builds targeting a Windows 7+.
mingw-w64 6+ fixed `mprapi.h` (included indirectly via `iphlpapi.h`)
to include `wincrypt.h` for the missing types.
MSVC is not affected because SDK 7.1a (the oldest MS SDK curl supports),
`mprapi.h` does include `wincrypt.h`.
Make sure to include `wincrypt.h` before including `iphlpapi.h` as
a workaround. `wincrypt.h` is used unconditionally even though it's
not available in UWP. This is safe in this context, because we use
`iphlpapi.h` for `if_nametoindex`, which is not supported and used
in UWP builds.
This fixes auto-detection that missed detecting `if_nametoindex` in
the affected combination, and this build error in non-unity builds:
