These are mandatory in C99, so it's a pointless waste of time to check
for them.
(Actually, the fixed-size integer types are not mandatory, but if they
are really not available on some theoretical system, PHP's fallbacks
won't work either, so nothing is gained from this check.)
The current behavior has been introduced 20 years ago in
f9e375f493 as part of a larger change.
It's not clear to me why special treatement of -lpthread is necessary
here.
Currently compiler flags passed by extensions using the standard
``PHP_NEW_EXTENSION`` and ``PHP_ADD_SOURCES`` m4 macros are prepended
before the ones defined by ``Zend/Zend.m4``.
This was not really an issue before as ``Zend.m4`` only included
``-Wall`` but since the addition of ``-Wextra`` various issue about
disabling flags have been brought up.
A preliminary attempt was done in commit 5c1cf7669b
but this turns out to be more or less irrelevant.
The root issue is that ``PHP_NEW_EXTENSION`` and ``PHP_ADD_SOURCES`` call the
``PHP_ADD_SOURCES_X`` macro and pass their flags as the 3rd argument which prepends
the flags. There exists a 6th argument for this macro which appends them but from a
cursory look at https://heap.space/search?full=PHP_ADD_SOURCES_X&project=php-src
this is not used. Moreover, the comment describing this macro explicitly informs
that this macro should not be used directly.
As such we drop the 6th argument of ``PHP_ADD_SOURCES_X`` and move the `special-flags`
argument to be appended instead of prepended.
Closes GH-6204
Given that this executes a random function with zero parameters,
actually executing the code doesn't make sense.
This should fix the imap + asan build.
Since libxml version 2.9.0 external entity loading is disabled by default.
Bumping the version requirement means that XML processing in PHP is no
longer vulnerable to XXE processing attacks by default.
- Fix typo in build/php.m4
- Nothing uses HAVE_INTTYPES_H; so remove check for header file
- Nothing defines ZEND_ACCONFIG_H_NO_C_PROTOS; so remove #ifndef
- `format_money` was removed in 2019, so <monetary.h> no longer needed
- Nothing uses HAVE_NETDB_H; so remove check for header file
- Nothing checks HAVE_TERMIOS_H; so remove check for header file
(This was actually added when Wez Furlong was adding the original implementation of
PTY support in `proc_open`, since replaced.)
- Nothing checks HAVE_SYS_AUXV_H; so remove check for header file
- PHP_BUILD_DATE variable is not used for anything, so remove it
This variable was added to the Makefile, but from there, was not used for anything.
The comments suggest it was intended to allow 'reproducible builds'. Presumably,
this means that if a bug is found in a PHP binary somewhere, one could look at the
Makefile which it was built from, see the date, and then could check the same
code version out from source control. But... there can easily be multiple commits
to the repo in the same day. Also, what makes us think that the Makefile which a
binary was built from will be easily available?
Besides, ext/standard/info.c already embeds the build date and time in each binary...
but it does it using `__DATE__` and `__TIME__` (see `php_print_info`).
- Nothing checks HAVE_FINITE; so don't check for function
- Grammar fix to comment in build/php.m4
- Nothing sets $php_ldflags_add_usr_lib variable in configure, so remove conditional
This was added in 2002, when Rasmus was having difficulty building PHP on some
host and needed to have /usr/lib in the rpath. It was never documented and
probably has never been used by anyone else.
I reverted this previously for 7.4 because of bug #78769. Relanding
it now for master, because I still believe that this change is
right, and if it causes complications, those indicate a bug elsewhere.

These were checking whether the instruction set is supported by
the host CPU, however they were only used to condition on whether
this instruction set is targeted at all. It would still use dynamic
dispatch (e.g. based on ifunc resolvers) to select the actual
implementation. Whether the target is guaranteed to support the
instruction set without dispatch is determined based on pre-defined
macros like __SSE2__.
This removes the configure-time builtin cpu checks to remove
confusion. Additionally this allows targeting an architecture that
is newer than the host architecture.
