terminology: call them null-terminated strings

2020-06-27T22:31:24+00:00

Updated terminology in docs, comments and phrases to refer to C strings
as "null-terminated". Done to unify with how most other C oriented docs
refer of them and what users in general seem to prefer (based on a
single highly unscientific poll on twitter).

wording: avoid blacklist/whitelist stereotypes

2020-06-10T06:49:17+00:00

Instead of discussing if there's value or meaning (implied or not) in
the colors, let's use words without the same possibly negative
associations.

multi: Change curl_multi_wait/poll to error on negative timeout

2020-01-11T23:16:28+00:00

- Add new error CURLM_BAD_FUNCTION_ARGUMENT and return that error when
  curl_multi_wait/poll is passed timeout param < 0.

Prior to this change passing a negative value to curl_multi_wait/poll
such as -1 could cause the function to wait forever.

include: remove non-curl prefixed defines

enums.

multi.h: move INITIAL_MAX_CONCURRENT_STREAMS from public header

2020-01-06T18:53:38+00:00

... to the private multihhandle.h. It is not for public use and it
wasn't prefixed correctly anyway!

multi: add curl_multi_wakeup()

2019-11-25T14:45:56+00:00

This commit adds curl_multi_wakeup() which was previously in the TODO
list under the curl_multi_unblock name.

On some platforms and with some configurations this feature might not be
available or can fail, in these cases a new error code
(CURLM_WAKEUP_FAILURE) is returned from curl_multi_wakeup().

Fixes #4418
Closes #4608

CURLMOPT_MAX_CONCURRENT_STREAMS: new setopt

defines: avoid underscore-prefixed defines

2019-08-23T09:47:57+00:00

Double-underscored or underscore plus uppercase letter at least.

... as they're claimed to be reserved.

curl_multi_poll: a sister to curl_multi_wait() that waits more

2019-08-06T07:33:29+00:00

Repeatedly we see problems where using curl_multi_wait() is difficult or
just awkward because if it has no file descriptor to wait for
internally, it returns immediately and leaves it to the caller to wait
for a small amount of time in order to avoid occasional busy-looping.

This is often missed or misunderstood, leading to underperforming
applications.

This change introduces curl_multi_poll() as a replacement drop-in
function that accepts the exact same set of arguments. This function
works identically to curl_multi_wait() - EXCEPT - for the case when
there's nothing to wait for internally, as then this function will by
itself wait for a "suitable" short time before it returns. This
effectiely avoids all risks of busy-looping and should also make it less
likely that apps "over-wait".

This also changes the curl tool to use this funtion internally when
doing parallel transfers and changes curl_easy_perform() to use it
internally.

Closes #4163
