             Summary: Considering using libcurl multi interface to implement 'curl' in Mesos.
                 Key: MESOS-4853
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-4853
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Jie Yu


Reference:
https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/libcurl-multi.html

Currently, some URI fetchers rely on 'curl' command directly (using subprocess). This is not ideal. The libcurl easy interface is blocking, so it does not compose well with our async environment. However, the multi interface seems to be suitable for our async environment. The tricky part is that we need to hook the fd selecting logic with our underlying libev/libevent runtime.
