[PATCH] esx: Bump minimal version of curl

According to meson.build the minimal version of curl needed is 7.18.0 which was released in January 2008. If the minimal version is bumped to 7.19.1 (released in November 2008) we can drop some workarounds because this newer version provides APIs we need. Signed-off-by: Michal Privoznik <mprivozn@redhat.com> --- Since the new version is still ~12 years old, I did not check whether it is available in all supported distros. If it isn't then we should re-evaluate support of running libvirt from git on that distro. meson.build | 2 +- src/esx/esx_stream.c | 8 -------- src/esx/esx_vi.c | 7 ------- 3 files changed, 1 insertion(+), 16 deletions(-) diff --git a/meson.build b/meson.build index 766bc06b61..369548f127 100644 --- a/meson.build +++ b/meson.build @@ -1001,7 +1001,7 @@ if capng_dep.found() conf.set('WITH_CAPNG', 1) endif -curl_version = '7.18.0' +curl_version = '7.19.1' curl_dep = dependency('libcurl', version: '>=' + curl_version, required: get_option('curl')) if curl_dep.found() # XXX as of libcurl-devel-7.20.1-3.fc13.x86_64, curl ships a version diff --git a/src/esx/esx_stream.c b/src/esx/esx_stream.c index 131fbc100b..e4e67a01bb 100644 --- a/src/esx/esx_stream.c +++ b/src/esx/esx_stream.c @@ -396,7 +396,6 @@ esxStreamOpen(virStreamPtr stream, esxPrivate *priv, const char *url, int result = -1; esxStreamPrivate *streamPriv; g_autofree char *range = NULL; - g_autofree char *userpwd = NULL; esxVI_MultiCURL *multi = NULL; /* FIXME: Although there is already some code in place to deal with @@ -438,17 +437,10 @@ esxStreamOpen(virStreamPtr stream, esxPrivate *priv, const char *url, curl_easy_setopt(streamPriv->curl->handle, CURLOPT_URL, url); curl_easy_setopt(streamPriv->curl->handle, CURLOPT_RANGE, range); -#if LIBCURL_VERSION_NUM >= 0x071301 /* 7.19.1 */ curl_easy_setopt(streamPriv->curl->handle, CURLOPT_USERNAME, priv->primary->username); curl_easy_setopt(streamPriv->curl->handle, CURLOPT_PASSWORD, priv->primary->password); -#else - userpwd = g_strdup_printf("%s:%s", priv->primary->username, - priv->primary->password); - - curl_easy_setopt(streamPriv->curl->handle, CURLOPT_USERPWD, userpwd); -#endif if (esxVI_MultiCURL_Alloc(&multi) < 0 || esxVI_MultiCURL_Add(multi, streamPriv->curl) < 0) diff --git a/src/esx/esx_vi.c b/src/esx/esx_vi.c index e1c1a15ab6..e535b28484 100644 --- a/src/esx/esx_vi.c +++ b/src/esx/esx_vi.c @@ -230,9 +230,7 @@ esxVI_CURL_Perform(esxVI_CURL *curl, const char *url) { CURLcode errorCode; long responseCode = 0; -#if LIBCURL_VERSION_NUM >= 0x071202 /* 7.18.2 */ const char *redirectUrl = NULL; -#endif errorCode = curl_easy_perform(curl->handle); @@ -262,7 +260,6 @@ esxVI_CURL_Perform(esxVI_CURL *curl, const char *url) } if (responseCode == 301) { -#if LIBCURL_VERSION_NUM >= 0x071202 /* 7.18.2 */ errorCode = curl_easy_getinfo(curl->handle, CURLINFO_REDIRECT_URL, &redirectUrl); @@ -277,10 +274,6 @@ esxVI_CURL_Perform(esxVI_CURL *curl, const char *url) _("The server redirects from '%s' to '%s'"), url, redirectUrl); } -#else - virReportError(VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, - _("The server redirects from '%s'"), url); -#endif return -1; } -- 2.26.2

RHEL-7 has 7.29.0, so I think you should bump the version right up to that. Regards, Daniel -- |: https://berrange.com -o- https://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange :| |: https://libvirt.org -o- https://fstop138.berrange.com :| |: https://entangle-photo.org -o- https://www.instagram.com/dberrange :|

While we could do that, it doesn't matter really - after this commit we don't check for curl version anywhere in our code so I'd say 7.19.1 is okay - it doesn't put any burden on us. But if we still want to bump the version then please post a patch and I will review it. Michal
