Before this patch curl used the C preprocessor to override standard
memory allocation symbols: malloc, calloc, strdup, realloc, free.
The goal of these is to replace them with curl's debug wrappers in
`CURLDEBUG` builds, another was to replace them with the wrappers
calling user-defined allocators in libcurl. This solution needed a bunch
of workarounds to avoid breaking external headers: it relied on include
order to do the overriding last. For "unity" builds it needed to reset
overrides before external includes. Also in test apps, which are always
built as single source files. It also needed the `(symbol)` trick
to avoid overrides in some places. This would still not fix cases where
the standard symbols were macros. It was also fragile and difficult
to figure out which was the actual function behind an alloc or free call
in a specific piece of code. This in turn caused bugs where the wrong
allocator was accidentally called.
To avoid these problems, this patch replaces this solution with
`curlx_`-prefixed allocator macros, and mapping them _once_ to either
the libcurl wrappers, the debug wrappers or the standard ones, matching
the rest of the code in libtests.
This concludes the long journey to avoid redefining standard functions
in the curl codebase.
Note: I did not update `packages/OS400/*.c` sources. They did not
`#include` `curl_setup.h`, `curl_memory.h` or `memdebug.h`, meaning
the overrides were never applied to them. This may or may not have been
correct. For now I suppressed the direct use of standard allocators
via a local `.checksrc`. Probably they (except for `curlcl.c`) should be
updated to include `curl_setup.h` and use the `curlx_` macros.
This patch changes mappings in two places:
- `lib/curl_threads.c` in libtests: Before this patch it mapped to
libcurl allocators. After, it maps to standard allocators, like
the rest of libtests code.
- `units`: before this patch it mapped to standard allocators. After, it
maps to libcurl allocators.
Also:
- drop all position-dependent `curl_memory.h` and `memdebug.h` includes,
and delete the now unnecessary headers.
- rename `Curl_tcsdup` macro to `curlx_tcsdup` and define like the other
allocators.
- map `curlx_strdup()` to `_strdup()` on Windows (was: `strdup()`).
To fix warnings silenced via `_CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE`.
- multibyte: map `curlx_convert_*()` to `_strdup()` on Windows
(was: `strdup()`).
- src: do not reuse the `strdup` name for the local replacement.
- lib509: call `_strdup()` on Windows (was: `strdup()`).
- test1132: delete test obsoleted by this patch.
- CHECKSRC.md: update text for `SNPRINTF`.
- checksrc: ban standard allocator symbols.

After this patch, the codebase no longer overrides system printf
functions. Instead it explicitly calls either the curl printf functions
`curl_m*printf()` or the system ones using their original names.
Also:
- drop unused `curl_printf.h` includes.
- checksrc: ban system printf functions, allow where necessary.

`-Weverything` is not enabled by curl, and not recommended by LLVM,
because it may enable experimental options, and will result in new
fallouts after toolchain upgrades. This patch aims to fix/silence as much
as possible as found with llvm/clang 21.1.0. It also permanently enables
warnings that were fixed in source and deemed manageable in the future.
`-Wformat` warnings are addressed separately via #18343.
Fix/silence warnings in the source:
- typecheck-gcc.h: fix `-Wreserved-identifier`.
- lib: silence `-Wcast-function-type-strict`.
For llvm 16+ or Apple clang 16+.
- asyn-ares: limit `HAPPY_EYEBALLS_DNS_TIMEOUT` to old c-ares versions.
- curl_trc: fix `-Wc++-hidden-decl`.
- doh: fix `-Wc++-keyword`.
- ftp: fix `-Wreserved-identifier`.
- ldap: fix `-Wreserved-identifier`.
- mqtt: comment unused macro to avoid warning.
- multi_ev: drop unused macros to avoid warnings.
- setopt: fix useless `break;` after `return;`.
- gtls, mbedtls, rustls: silence `-Wconditional-uninitialized`.
- socks_sspi, schannel, x509asn1: fix `-Wimplicit-int-enum-cast`.
- x509asn1: fix `-Wc++-keyword`.
- openssl: scope `OSSL_UI_METHOD_CAST` to avoid unused macro warning.
- libssh2, wolfssl: drop unused macros.
- curl_ngtcp2, curl_quiche, httpsrr, urlapi: drop/limit unused macros.
- tool_getparam: fix useless `break;` after `return;` or `break;`.
Not normally enabled because it doesn't work with unity.
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/71046
- tool_operate: fix `-Wc++-keyword`.
- curlinfo: fix a `-Wunsafe-buffer-usage`.
- tests: silence `-Wformat-non-iso`.
- lib557: fix `-Wreserved-identifier`.
- lib1565: silence `-Wconditional-uninitialized`.
Enable the above clang warnings permanently in picky mode:
- `-Wc++-hidden-decl`
- `-Wc++-keyword` (except for Windows, where it collides with `wchar_t`)
- `-Wcast-function-type-strict`
- `-Wcast-function-type`
- `-Wconditional-uninitialized`
- `-Wformat-non-iso` (except for clang-cl)
- `-Wreserved-identifier`
- `-Wtentative-definition-compat`
Silence problematic `-Weverything` warnings globally (in picky mode):
- `-Wused-but-marked-unused` (88000+ hits) and
`-Wdisabled-macro-expansion` (2600+ hits).
Triggered by `typecheck-gcc.h` when building with clang 14+.
Maybe there exists a way to fix within that header?
Ref: https://discourse.llvm.org/t/removing-wused-but-marked-unused/55310
- `-Wunsafe-buffer-usage`. clang 16+. 7000+ hits.
May be useful in theory, but such high volume of hits makes it
impractical to review and possibly address. Meant for C++.

- `-Wimplicit-void-ptr-cast`. clang 21+. 1700+ hits.
C++ warning, deemed pure noise.
Ref: https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/18470#issuecomment-3253506266
- `-Wswitch-default` (180+ hits), `-Wswitch-enum` (190+ hits),
`-Wcovered-switch-default` (20+ hits).
Next to impossible to fix cleanly, esp. when the covered `case`
branches depend on compile-time options.
- `-Wdocumentation-unknown-command` (8+ hits).
Triggered in a few sources. Seems arbitrary and bogus.
- `-Wpadded` (550+ hits).
- `-Wc++-keyword` on Windows, where it collides with `wchar_t`.
(100+ hits)
Ref: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/155988
- `-Wreserved-macro-identifier`. clang 13+. 5+ hits.
Sometimes it's necessary to set external macros that use
the reserved namespace. E.g. `_CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE`,
`__ENVIRONMENT_MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED__`, `__NO_NET_API`,
possibly `_REENTRANT`, and more.
It's not worth trying to silence them individually.
- `-Wnonportable-system-include-path` with `clang-cl`.
It'd be broken by doing what the warning suggests.
- `-Wformat-non-iso` for clang-cl.
CMake `PICKY_COMPILER=ON` (the default) or `./configure`
`--enable-warnings` (not the default) is required to enable these
silencing rules.
Also:
- autotools, cmake: fix Apple clang and mainline llvm version translations.
Ref: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xcode#Toolchain_versions
- autotools, cmake: enable `-Warray-compare` for clang 20+.

"asyn" is the internal name under which both c-ares and threaded
resolver operate. Make the naming more consistent. Implement the c-ares
resolver in `asyn-ares.*` and the threaded resolver in `asyn-thrdd.*`.
The common functions are in `asyn-base.c`.
When `CURLRES_ASYNCH` is defined, either of the two is used and
`data->state.async` exists. Members of that struct vary for the selected
implementation, but have the fields `hostname`, `port` and `ip_version`
always present. This are populated when the async resolving starts and
eliminate the need to pass them again when checking on the status and
processing the results of the resolving.
Add a `Curl_resolv_blocking()` to `hostip.h` that relieves FTP and SOCKS
from having to repeat the same code.
`Curl_resolv_check()` remains the function to check for status of
ongoing resolving. Now it also performs internally the check if the
needed DNS entry exists in the dnscache and if so, aborts the asnyc
operation. (libcurl right now does not check for duplicate resolve
attempts. an area for future improvements).
The number of functions in `asyn.h` has been reduced. There were subtle
difference in "cancel()" and "kill()" calls, both replaced by
`Curl_async_shutdown()` now. This changes behaviour for threaded
resolver insofar as the resolving thread is now always joined unless
`data->set.quick_exit` is set. Before this was only done on some code
paths. A future improvement would be a thread pool that keeps a limit
and also could handle joins more gracefully.
DoH, not previously tagged under "asny", has its struct `doh_probes` now
also in `data->state.async`, moved there from `data->req` because it
makes more sense. Further integration of DoH underneath the "asyn"
umbrella seems like a good idea.

Made the HTTPS-RR parser a little stricter while at it.

- fold DoH and async HTTPS-RR handling into common code.
have common cleanups, etc. Have a CURLcode result in async
handling to allow HTTPS RR parsing to fail.
- keep target, ipv4hints, ipv6hints, port and echconfig also
when resolving via cares. We need to know `target` and `port`
when evaluating possible ALPN candidates to not go astray.
- add CURL_TRC_DNS for tracing DNS operations
- replace DoH specific tracing with DNS, use doh as alias
for dns in curl_global_tracea()
Closes#16132
Allow building with c-ares and yet use threaded resolver for the main
host A/AAAA resolving:
`--with-ares` provides the c-ares install path and defaults to use
c-ares for name resolving
`--with-threaded-resolver` still uses c-ares in the build (for HTTPS)
but uses the threaded resolver for "normal" resolves.
It works similarly for cmake: ENABLE_ARES enables ares, and if
ENABLE_THREADED_RESOLVER also is set, c-ares is used for HTTPS RR and
the threaded resolver for "normal" resolves.
HTTPSRR and c-ares-rr are new features return by curl_version_info() and
thus shown by curl -V.
The c-ares-rr feature bit is there to make it possible to distinguish
between builds using c-ares for all name resolves and builds that use
the threaded resolves for the regular name resolves and c-ares for
HTTPSRR only. "c-ares-rr" means it does not use c-ares for "plain" name
resolves.
HTTPSRR support is EXPERIMENTAL only.
Closes#16054
