## Problem Windows builds break with a current local toolchain (Scoop LLVM 22.1.8, CMake 4.4.0, VS 2026), in two independent ways: 1. The build stops at curl's deliberate guard: `#error "no non-blocking method was found/used/set"` in `third-party/curl/lib/nonblock.c`. 2. From the second configure onward, `cmake --build` re-runs CMake in an endless loop (observed 42 consecutive reconfigure cycles in a single build). Likely the same mechanism behind the "endlessly building" VS 2026 note in `docs/setup/dev/vs.md`. ## Root cause 1. `third-party/curl/CMake/CurlTests.c` passes `int *` to `ioctlsocket()`, whose third parameter is `u_long *`. Clang 22 promotes `-Wincompatible-pointer-types` to a hard error in C, so the `HAVE_IOCTLSOCKET_FIONBIO` try_compile silently fails and `curl_config.h` never defines it. Upstream CI does not see this because the windows-2022 runner image ships an older LLVM. GCC 14 promotes the same warning to a hard error, which is very likely the `CurlTests.c.obj` failure reported from MSYS2 in open-goal/jak-project#3551. Upstream curl hit the identical problem with GCC 14 and fixed the probe in curl 8.8.0 (curl/curl#13578). 2. The root CMakeLists copies the build tree's `compile_commands.json` into `<src>/build/` for clangd using `configure_file()`, which registers its input as a configure dependency. CMake rewrites `compile_commands.json` late in every generation, after `CTestTestfile.cmake` and `cmake_install.cmake` (outputs of the same Ninja regen rule), so once the dependency is registered the rule is deterministically dirty and every `ninja` invocation re-runs CMake. A pristine first configure is safe (the file does not exist yet, so the `if(EXISTS ...)` guard skips the copy), which is why the loop looks machine- or IDE-specific. ## Fix 1. Per review, re-vendor `third-party/curl` at the `curl-8_21_0` tag (previously `curl-8_3_0`), which carries the upstream probe fix plus two years of upstream development; `vendor.yaml` updated to match. Adjustments the version jump forced: - curl 8.15 removed the native macOS Secure Transport backend (`CURL_USE_SECTRANSP`), so macOS now builds curl against OpenSSL like Linux. The two macOS workflows install Homebrew `openssl@3` and export `OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR` (keg-only), and the macOS setup docs gained the same two lines. - `CURL_BROTLI` / `CURL_ZSTD` switched to AUTO-detection in curl 8.10; pinned OFF to keep the previous no-compression behavior and avoid silently linking whatever the CI images happen to have. - curl's new top-level `BUILD_EXAMPLES` cache option (default ON) leaked into discord-rpc's identically named option and broke configure at a nonexistent `examples/send-presence` directory; pinned OFF ahead of the third-party subdirectories. The diff is dominated by the mechanical tag-tree swap under `third-party/curl` (linguist-vendored, collapsed in review). The hand-written changes are `CMakeLists.txt`, the two macOS workflows, `docs/setup/system/macos.md`, and `vendor.yaml`. 2. Swap `configure_file()` for `file(COPY ...)`: the same clangd copy with no configure dependency registered. (`file(COPY_FILE ... ONLY_IF_DIFFERENT)` would be cleaner still but requires CMake 3.21, above the declared `cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.10)`.) ## Test plan - [x] Fresh `cmake --preset Release-windows-clang` (LLVM 22, no cache seeding) completes and logs `Enabled SSL backends: Schannel`; the FIONBIO probe passes without the previous `#error` - [x] Full Windows Release build from scratch in the branch worktree (all 1422 targets) - [x] goalc-test suite: 1509 passed, 0 failed - [x] Second consecutive configure with `compile_commands.json` present: the regen rule in `build.ninja` has no `compile_commands.json` input; `<src>/build/compile_commands.json` is still refreshed for clangd - [x] Repeated `ninja` invocations after a full build no longer re-run CMake - [x] macOS Intel and ARM CI green (first exercise of the OpenSSL backend switch) --- I work off a self-hosted forge, so this GitHub account is quiet; the configure logs and ninja dirty-node traces from the investigation are available if anyone wants the raw data.

NAME
CURLOPT_PREREQFUNCTION - user callback called when a connection has been established, but before a request has been made.
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
/* These are the return codes for the pre-request callback. */
#define CURL_PREREQFUNC_OK 0
#define CURL_PREREQFUNC_ABORT 1 /* fail the entire transfer */
int prereq_callback(void *clientp,
char *conn_primary_ip,
char *conn_local_ip,
int conn_primary_port,
int conn_local_port);
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PREREQFUNCTION, prereq_callback);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to your callback function, which should match the prototype shown above.
This function gets called by libcurl after a connection has been established or a connection has been reused (including any SSL handshaking), but before any request is actually made on the connection. For example, for HTTP, this callback is called once a connection has been established to the server, but before a GET/HEAD/POST/etc request has been sent.
This function may be called multiple times if redirections are enabled and are being followed (see CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION(3)).
The callback function must return CURL_PREREQFUNC_OK on success, or CURL_PREREQFUNC_ABORT to cause the transfer to fail with result CURLE_ABORTED_BY_CALLBACK.
This function is passed the following arguments:
conn_primary_ip
A pointer to a null-terminated C string containing the primary IP of the remote server established with this connection. For FTP, this is the IP for the control connection. IPv6 addresses are represented without surrounding brackets.
conn_local_ip
A pointer to a null-terminated C string containing the originating IP for this connection. IPv6 addresses are represented without surrounding brackets.
conn_primary_port
The primary port number on the remote server established with this connection. For FTP, this is the port for the control connection. This can be a TCP or a UDP port number depending on the protocol.
conn_local_port
The originating port number for this connection. This can be a TCP or a UDP port number depending on the protocol.
clientp
The pointer you set with CURLOPT_PREREQDATA(3).

EXAMPLE
struct priv {
void *custom;
};
static int prereq_callback(void *clientp,
char *conn_primary_ip,
char *conn_local_ip,
int conn_primary_port,
int conn_local_port)
{
printf("Connection made to %s:%d\n", conn_primary_ip, conn_primary_port);
return CURL_PREREQFUNC_OK;
}
int main(void)
{
struct priv prereq_data;
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
CURLcode result;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PREREQFUNCTION, prereq_callback);
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PREREQDATA, &prereq_data);
result = curl_easy_perform(curl);
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
}

RETURN VALUE
curl_easy_setopt(3) returns a CURLcode indicating success or error.
CURLE_OK (0) means everything was OK, non-zero means an error occurred, see libcurl-errors(3).
