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.
Fixes#17985 (discussion)
Closes#18009
- asyn-thrdd.c: scope an include.
- apply more clang-format suggestions.
- tidy-up PP guard comments.
- delete empty line from the top of headers.
- add empty line after `curl_setup.h` include where missing.
- fix indent.
- CODE_STYLE.md: add `strcpy`.
Follow-up to 8636ad55df#20088
- lib1901.c: drop unnecessary line.
Follow-up to 436e67f65b#20076Closes#20070
- apply more clang-format.
- lib/version: use `CURL_ARRAYSIZE()`.
- INSTALL-CMAKE.md: sync-up an option description with others.
- examples: delete unused main args.
- examples/ftpgetinfo: document `_CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS` symbol.
- delete remaining stray duplicate lines.
- acinclude.m4: drop an unnecessary x-hack.
- vtls/mbedtls: join a URL split into two lines.
- src/tool_cb_see: add parentheses around macro expressions.
- src/tool_operate: move literals to the right side of comparisons.
- libtests: sync up fopen/fstat error messages between tests.
- curl_setup.h: replace `if ! defined __LP64` with `ifndef __LP64`.
I assume it makes no difference on Tandem systems, as the latter form
is already used in `include/curl/system.h`.
Closes#20018
To avoid hitting `-Wreserved-macro-identifier` where possible.
- amigaos: introduce local macro instead of reusing `__request()`.
- easy_lock: avoid redefining `__has_builtin()`.
Follow-up to 33fd57b8ff#9062
- rand: drop interim macro `_random()`.
- windows: rename local macro `_tcsdup()` to `Curl_tcsdup()`.
To avoid using the reserved macro namespace and to avoid
colliding with `_tcsdup()` as defined by Windows headers.
- checksrc: ban `_tcsdup()` in favor of `Curl_tcsdup()`.
- tool_doswin: avoid redefining `_use_lfn()` (MS-DOS).
- tool_findfile: limit `__NO_NET_API` hack to AmigaOS.
Syncing this pattern with `lib/netrc.c`.
Follow-up to 784a8ec2c1#16279
- examples/http2-upload: avoid reserved namespace for local macro.
More cases will be removed when dropping WinCE support via #17927.
Cases remain when defining external macros out of curl's control.

mingw-w64 3.0 was released on 2013-09-20. Offered by Debian jessie.
1.0 and 2.0 were released in 2011. It seems unlikely that many people
use them. The oldest downloadable toolchain (that I know of) comes with
3.0. Due to this, older versions weren't CI tested, and probably seldom
tested elsewhere. The last bugfix update for both 1.0 and 2.0 was
released in 2015.
curl can now assume availability of these 3.0 features/fixes:
- 64-bit file offsets.
- `ADDRESS_FAMILY` type.
- `__MINGW_PRINTF_FORMAT` macro. (in public curl headers)
Public curl headers keep supporting older mingw-w64 versions.

- Prefer Sleep(1) over sched_yield() for pre-Vista thread yield.
On Windows sched_yield is often implemented as Sleep(0) which only
yields to threads of highest priority to current priority. However,
during libcurl initialization if there is thread contention then it's
possible that there is a wait for a different library or OS thread of
a lesser priority and then the yield is not effective during that time.
On the other hand Sleep(1) will wait the minimum time slice which is
usually like 15ms or more.
Prior to this change 2c4bfef removed sched_yield detection on Windows,
which effectively removed the yield in the spin lock, and therefore this
change restores the yield but in a different way.
For Windows Vista and later we use SRW locks and do not have this issue.

Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/16048
Instead of redefining the `inline` keyword, introduce curl's own
`CURL_INLINE` macro and set it depending on the compiler's capabilities,
or use its value set via custom C flags.
Also keep honoring a custom `inline` macro, if set.
Closes#15523
Aka "jumbo" or "amalgamation" builds. It means to compile all sources
per target as a single C source. This is experimental.
You can enable it by passing `-DCMAKE_UNITY_BUILD=ON` to cmake.
It requires CMake 3.16 or newer.
It makes builds (much) faster, allows for better optimizations and tends
to promote less ambiguous code.
Also add a new AppVeyor CI job and convert an existing one to use
"unity" mode (one MSVC, one MinGW), and enable it for one macOS CI job.
Fix related issues:
- add missing include guard to `easy_lock.h`.
- rename static variables and functions (and a macro) with names reused
across sources, or shadowed by local variables.
- add an `#undef` after use.
- add a missing `#undef` before use.
- move internal definitions from `ftp.h` to `ftp.c`.
- `curl_memory.h` fixes to make it work when included repeatedly.
- stop building/linking curlx bits twice for a static-mode curl tool.
These caused doubly defined symbols in unity builds.
- silence missing extern declarations compiler warning for ` _CRT_glob`.
- fix extern declarations for `tool_freq` and `tool_isVistaOrGreater`.
- fix colliding static symbols in debug mode: `debugtime()` and
`statename`.
- rename `ssl_backend_data` structure to unique names for each
TLS-backend, along with the `ssl_connect_data` struct member
referencing them. This required adding casts for each access.
- add workaround for missing `[P]UNICODE_STRING` types in certain Windows
builds when compiling `lib/ldap.c`. To support "unity" builds, we had
to enable `SCHANNEL_USE_BLACKLISTS` for Schannel (a Windows
`schannel.h` option) _globally_. This caused an indirect inclusion of
Windows `schannel.h` from `ldap.c` via `winldap.h` to have it enabled
as well. This requires `[P]UNICODE_STRING` types, which is apperantly
not defined automatically (as seen with both MSVS and mingw-w64).
This patch includes `<subauth.h>` to fix it.

- tweak unity builds to compile `lib/memdebug.c` separately in memory
trace builds to avoid PP confusion.
- force-disable unity for test programs.
- do not compile and link libcurl sources to libtests _twice_ when libcurl
is built in static mode.
KNOWN ISSUES:
- running tests with unity builds may fail in cases.
- some build configurations/env may not compile in unity mode. E.g.:

- they are mostly pointless in all major jurisdictions
- many big corporations and projects already don't use them
- saves us from pointless churn
- git keeps history for us
- the year range is kept in COPYING
checksrc is updated to allow non-year using copyright statements

The Intel compiler tries to look like GCC *and* clang *and* it lies in
its __has_builtin() function (returns true when it should return false),
so override it.
