Currently ReceiveTimeout sets CURLOPT_TIMEOUT which is an absolute timeout
on the HTTP download and not particularly useful without knowing the size
of the file or the throughput available to download it.
Change it to use CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_TIME instead, and set the related low
speed limit (CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_LIMIT) to 1 byte per second. This will allow
the ReceiveTimeout to abort the attempt if the download is not making
any significant progress.
Restore the documentation, default and sample options back to before
2fd28e1d09 and
f5d465a864.
This fixes#266 and avoids problems caused by the Ubuntu default
ReceiveTimeout of 30 seconds.
Add progress callbacks to libclamav for:
- database load
- engine compile
- engine free
Add a progress bar to clamscan for load & compile.
These are disabled if you run with --debug or stdout is not a TTY or you
are using one of --quiet, --infected, or --no-summary.
Added code so you can test the engine-free callback by building with
ENABLE_ENGINE_FREE_PROGRESSBAR defined.
The compile & free progress callbacks pre-calculate the number of
tasks to complete to estimate the progress. Some tasks may take longer
than others so the progress speed my appear to vary a little.
The callbacks return type is a cl_error_t but doesn't currently do
anything. It is reserved for future use.
Minor formatting change in matcher-ac.c to counteract weird
clang-format behavior, and to make it easier to read.
Added progress callbacks and clamscan progress bars to the news.
Added special warning messages for 403 and 429 HTTP codes.
For 403, FreshClam will fail (non-zero exit code) if not in daemon-mode.
For 429, FreshClam will succeed (exit 0) if not in daemon-mode.
Adds If-Modified-Since header for CVD downloads (not just CVD-head)
which should reduce data usage if DNS is advertising a newer version
than is actually available, which seems to happen sometimes due to
caching issues, it should still fail out when this happens - it just
won't have to download the older CVD, and should detect the HTTP 304
(Not-Modified) response instead.
Also replaced "Freshclam" with "FreshClam" in a few places, for
consistency.
New features added to freshclam:
- Update signature definitions over HTTPS.
- Support for HTTP protocol v1.1 (formerly v1.0).
- New libfreshclam library with an all new API and versioning separate from libclamav (v2.0.0). This library is now build and installed alongside libclamav as a hard dependency of freshclam.
- The ability to opt-in and opt-out of standard and optional official ClamAV databases (ExtraDatabase, ExcludeDatabase)
- The option to specify the protocol and port number of official and private mirror servers.
- Support for additional types of proxy servers beyond plain HTTP (SOCKS 4, SOCKS 5).
Features removed from freshclam:
- Mirror management (mirrors.dat) file. This feature is no longer needed as official signature databases are distributed using a paid content delivery network (Cloudflare).
This commit also adds the following features for Windows users:
- The clamsubmit tool.
- The json-c library dependency, which will enable the --gen-json option in clamscan.
- Third party libraries under the win32/3rdparty directory have been removed. Developers will need to build the libraries separately from ClamAV and provide the headers and lib/dll library files the same way they do for OpenSSL. This includes libxml2, pthread-win32, bzip2, zlib, pcre2 as well as new dependencies: curl, json-c. Developers are encouraged to use the build tool Mussels to simplify this task.
