+.TH CURLMOPT_PIPELINING 3 "17 Jun 2014" "libcurl 7.37.0" "curl_multi_setopt options"
+.SH NAME
+CURLMOPT_PIPELINING \- enable/disable HTTP pipelining
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+#include <curl/curl.h>
+
+CURLMcode curl_multi_setopt(CURLM *handle, CURLMOPT_PIPELINING, long bits);
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Set the \fBbits\fP parameter to 1 to make libcurl use HTTP pipelining for
+HTTP/1.1 transfers done using this multi handle, as far as possible. This
+means that if you add a second request that can use an already existing
+connection, the second request will be \&"piped" on the same connection rather
+than being executed in parallel.
+
+When using pipelining, there are also several other related options that are
+interesting to tweak and adjust to alter how libcurl spreads out requests on
+different connections or not etc.
+
+Starting in 7.43.0, the \fBbits\fP parameter's bit 1 also has a meaning and
+libcurl is now offering symbol names for the bits:
+.IP CURLPIPE_NOTHING (0)
+Default, which means doing no attempts at pipelining or multiplexing.
+.IP CURLPIPE_HTTP1 (1)
+If this bit is set, libcurl will try to pipeline HTTP/1.1 requests on
+connections that are already established and in use to hosts.
+.IP CURLPIPE_MULTIPLEX (2)
+If this bit is set, libcurl will try to multiplex the new transfer over an
+existing connection if possible. This requires HTTP/2.
+.SH DEFAULT
+0 (off)
+.SH PROTOCOLS
+HTTP(S)
+.SH EXAMPLE
+TODO
+.SH AVAILABILITY
+Added in 7.16.0. Multiplex support bit added in 7.43.0.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+Returns CURLM_OK if the option is supported, and CURLM_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
