"libcurl doesn't expose connections much and there's no way to identify a
certain connection anyway with like an ID or something. "

Since it is absolutely required that I should know which TCP connection an
easy handle is used for and to have a single easy handle cache a single
connection or linked to a single connection in a multi
interface environment, I would like to modify libcurl and have a private
version of libcurl linked to my program.

When an easy handle is set up for the first time I use
"CURLOPT_FORBID_REUSE" this will create a new TCP and a new socket. For
subsequent transfers on the same connection, I would like to use the same
easy handle that set this connection up. So when I run 100 connections in
parallel, I will have 100 easy handles dedicated for each connection that
should do transfers for only those connections.

Is there quick way to achieve this? I tried setting MAX_SOCKSPEREASYHANDLE
to 1 from 5. This still does not get the job done.
This ideally should mean 1:1 mapping between socket/tcp connection and easy
handle correct? How come it doesn't work?

Is there any other way to do this?
