Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using mis-identified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
simply not trying to return exactly what the caller asked for - just
return whatever we got and let the caller be the judge of whether it
was enough. If an error occurs or the connection times out after we
already received some data, return a short read, under the assumption
that the next call will fail or time out before we read anything.
As it turns out, none of the code that calls fetch_read() assumes an
all-or-nothing result anyway, except for a couple of lines where we
read the CR LF at the end of a hunk in HTTP hunked encoding, so the
changes outside of fetch_read() and http_readfn() are minimal.
While there, replace select(2) with poll(2).

progress information. The first is that fetch_read() (used in the HTTP
code but not the FTP code) can enter an infinite loop if it has previously
been interrupted by a signal. The second is that when it is interrupted,
fetch_read() will discard any data it may have read up to that point.
Luckily, both bugs are extremely timing-sensitive and therefore difficult
to trigger.

the SSL case, it is no different from the old _fetch_write(), but in the
non-SSL case it uses writev(2) to send the entire vector as a single
packet (provided it can fit in one packet). Implement _fetch_write()
and _fetch_putln() in terms of _fetch_writev().
This should improve performance in the non-SSL case (by reducing protocol
overhead) and solve the problem where too-smart-for-their-own-good
firewalls reject FTP packets that do not end in CRLF.

which contains the socket descriptor, the input buffer and (yet unused)
SSL state variables. This has the neat side effect of greatly improving
reentrance (though we're not *quite* there yet) and opening the door to
HTTP connection caching.
This commit is inspired by email conversations with and patches from
Henry Whincup <henry@techiebod.com> last fall.
Brucify the Makefile.
Differentiate atime and mtime in fetch*Stat().
Fix a few pointer bugs.
Tweak some error messages.
Don't #include sys/param.h and stdio.h in fetch.h.
Document that sys/param.h and stdio.h must be #included before fetch.h.
This commit introduces the following features:
a) the fetchStat*() functions, which return meta-information for a
document, such as size, modification time, etc.
b) the use of the com_err(3) facilities to report errors.
It also fixes a bunch of style bugs and a few logic bugs and somewhat
improves the man page.
