A returned READ packet that is short will now only reduce the
offset.
This is a temporary fix as it is slightly better than the previous
approach but still not very good.
When receiving more data than what the window size allows on a
particular channel, make sure that the window size is adjusted in that
case too. Previously it would only adjust the window in the non-error
case.
When seeking to a new position, flush the packetlist and buffered data
to prevent already received or pending data to wrongly get used when
sftp-reading from the new offset within the file.
In the case where a read packet has been received from the server, but
the entire contents couldn't be copied to the user-buffer, the data is
instead buffered and copied to the user's buffer in the next invocation
of sftp_read(). When that "extra" copy is made, the 'offset' pointer was
not advanced accordingly.
The biggest impact of this flaw was that the 'already' variable at the
top of the function that figures out how much data "ahead" that has
already been asked for would slowly go more and more out of sync, which
could lead to the file not being read all the way to the end.
This problem was most noticable in cases where the application would
only try to read the exact file size amount, like curl does. In the
examples libssh2 provides the sftp read function is most often called
with a fixed size large buffer and then the bug would not appear as
easily.
This bug was introduced in the SFTP rewrite in 1.2.8.

Partly reverse 566894494b4972ae12 which was simplifying the code far too
much and ended up overflowing a buffer within the LIBSSH2_SESSION
struct. Back to allocating the buffer properly like it used to do.

Reported by: Alfred Gebert
A sftp session failed with error "failure establishing ssh session" on
Solaris and HP-UX. Sometimes the first recv() function call sets errno
to ENOENT. In the man pages for recv of Solaris and HP-UX the error
ENOENT is not documented.
I tested Solaris SPARC and x86, HP-UX i64, AIX, Windows and Linux.
After an error occurs in libssh2_scp_recv() or libssh2_scp_send(), the
function libssh2_session_last_error() would return
LIBSSH2_ERROR_SOCKET_NONE on error.

Fixes#216
Previously the code assumed either a single host name or a hostname,ip-address pair. However, according to the spec [1], there can be any number of comma separated host names or IP addresses.

Fix the bug that libssh2 could not connect if the sftp server
sends data before sending the version string.
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4253#section-4.2
"The server MAY send other lines of data before sending the version
string. Each line SHOULD be terminated by a Carriage Return and Line
Feed. Such lines MUST NOT begin with "SSH-", and SHOULD be encoded
in ISO-10646 UTF-8 [RFC3629] (language is not specified). Clients
MUST be able to process such lines."
The buffer for the decompression (remote.comp_abstract) is initialised
in time when it is needed. With this fix decompression is disabled when
the buffer (remote.comp_abstract) is not initialised.
Bug: http://trac.libssh2.org/ticket/200
As pointed out in bug #206, if a second invoke of libssh2_sftp_read()
would shrink the buffer size, libssh2 would go nuts and send out read
requests like crazy. This was due to an unsigned variable turning
"negative" by some wrong math, and that value would be the amount of
data attempt to pre-buffer!
Bug: http://trac.libssh2.org/ticket/206
If asked to read data into a buffer and the buffer is too small to hold
the data, this function now returns an error instead of as previously
just copy as much as fits.
Added crypto.h that is the unified header to include when using crypto
functionality. It should be the only header that needs to adapt to the
underlying crypto library in use. It provides the set of prototypes that
are library agnostic.
Pass a NULL pointer for the publickey parameter of
libssh2_userauth_publickey_fromfile and
libssh2_userauth_hostbased_fromfile functions. In this case, the
functions recompute the public key from the private key file data.
This is work done by Jean-Louis CHARTON
<Jean-Louis.CHARTON@oikialog.com>, then adapted by Mark Smith and
slightly edited further by me Daniel.
WARNING: this does leave the feature NOT WORKING when libssh2 is built
to use libgcrypt instead of OpenSSL simply due to lack of
implementation.
