We plan to add metrics to monitor connectivities such as socket open/close. It seems to me that only CURL APIs support open/close socket callbacks CURLOPT_CLOSESOCKETFUNCTION <https://curl.se/libcurl/c/CURLOPT_CLOSESOCKETFUNCTION.html> but we do not have similar APIs for CURLM.
Right, because the multi handle has no sockets of its own really. Sockets are used for transfers and the transfers are held or owned by the easy handles.
So, those are the open/close socket callbacks libcurl provides.
The problem is that the lifetime of the socket in CURLM maybe longer compared with the easy handle, which means the CURL object could be finished and removed before the socket is closed.
