Since Autoconf 2.50+ macro AC_STRUCT_ST_BLOCKS defines the new
HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_BLOCKS symbol and has deprecated the previous
HAVE_ST_BLOCKS.
PHP 5.3 required Autoconf 2.13 (released in 1999) or newer, since PHP
5.4 the autoconf 2.59 (released in 2003) or newer was required, and
since PHP 7.2, autoconf 2.64 (released in 2008) or newer is required.
Autoconf 2.50 released in 2001 has made several macros obsolete. Instead
of the AC_STRUCT_ST_BLKSIZE and AC_STRUCT_ST_RDEV the new
AC_CHECK_MEMBERS should be used.
When checking for the presence of stat struct members st_blkzize and
st_rdev the new AC_CHECK_MEMBERS macro defines new constants
HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_BLKSIZE and HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_RDEV.
Old constants HAVE_ST_BLKSIZE and HAVE_ST_RDEV need to be replaced
respectively in PHP code (this patch) and in PHP extenstions if they use
them.
PHP 5.4 to 7.1 require Autoconf 2.59+ version, PHP 7.2 and above require
2.64+ version, and the PHP 7.2 phpize script requires 2.59+ version which
are all greater than above mentioned 2.50 version.
The $Id$ keywords were used in Subversion where they can be substituted
with filename, last revision number change, last changed date, and last
user who changed it.
In Git this functionality is different and can be done with Git attribute
ident. These need to be defined manually for each file in the
.gitattributes file and are afterwards replaced with 40-character
hexadecimal blob object name which is based only on the particular file
contents.
This patch simplifies handling of $Id$ keywords by removing them since
they are not used anymore.
Preventing integer overflows in principle, which allows to avoid additional
range checks. The phar format is based on 32-bit lengths, so the storage
sizes was kept same.
Primarily related to the path handling datatypes, to avoid unnecessary
casts, where possible. Also some rework to avoid code dup. Probably
more places are to go, even not path related, primarily to have less
casts and unsigned integers where possible. That way, we've not only
less warnings and casts, but are also safer with regard to the
integer overflows. OFC it's not a panacea, but still significantly
reduces the vulnerability potential.
If this does not break the Unix system somehow, I'll be amazed. This should get most of it out, apologies for any errors this may cause on non-Windows ends which I cannot test atm.
